Helldivers 2 introduces Democracy Space Station for player voting on bombardment targets

Helldivers 2 has introduced a new feature called the Democracy Space Station (DSS), allowing players to vote on which planet will receive bombardment every 24 hours. This adds a new gameplay mechanic, enhancing player involvement in the game. Players can vote once per cycle, directing the DSS to a chosen planet. Actions like planetary bombardment and orbital blockades can be activated based on player donations of resources. This system marks a shift from the previous game's static galactic wars. The DSS aims to give players more influence over the game's progression, contrasting with Helldivers 1's longer, predetermined conflicts. This change is seen as a step towards a more interactive experience for players.
