Shanghai local news actually did a piece on this, it seems like Chinese and American Helldivers successfully protected Cyber Shanghai in the end

When I was a kid, I could remember so many lines from the Starship Troopers movie. I had no clue why this movie wasn't talked about more. Turns out the world was just slow to catching on it. Globally
A lot of the audience, including critics, didn’t even get that it was a parody at the time of release. Let that sink in…
Didn't the same thing happen with Robocop? I was too young to understand that both movies were parodies, but didn't go around screaming "fascist propaganda". I just thought both movies were fun as hell. Probably the Karens are complaining like always.
I guess some people just have bad media literacy. You just have to deal with that.
Managed Democracy!
Another recent excellent release is ID Software's Doom: The Dark Ages! A technical masterpiece with excellent gameplay based around a slower moving Doom Slayer armed with a shield for counters and a variety of melee weapons. Obviously you have a great selection of firearms to choose from; classics like the Super Shotgun return but you also have new great weapons like the Chainshot (a giant ball attached to a chain that you can launch at enemies).
I honestly feel like with some changes, they could have called this game Quake. Some of the later levels really have a Quake vibe. Given that this is the end of the current Doom trilogy, I hope the next series they do is Quake.

Personally, this felt like the weakest of the trilogy. Didn't agree with some of the changes to the gameplay.
On the other hand, there are rumors of a Quake remake in the same vein as the DOOM 2016 reboot. Supposed to be made by the Wolfenstein guys. They have just finished Indiana Jones and are finishing up the DLC for it, but have come out and said they have multiple titles in the works right now. I desperately need Wolfenstein 3. I hope they moved away from the second game's style.
Speaking of baiting for leaks...they're adding the type 625e next update and they just rejected implementing AHEAD ammunition despite it being shown on video because they want information about how the ammunition is programmed...

Yea, they already have AHEAD ammunition in game albeit it's implemented inaccurately (still much better than when it was first in the game though), so why do they need to know how it works IRL LOL.
