Helldivers 2 players have delivered a swift rebuttal to the game’s director, Johan Pilestedt, after he dismissed claims of blue lasers and flying bugs as mere “propaganda.” In a surprising turn of events, one player managed to capture both phenomena in a single screenshot, putting an end to Pilestedt’s skepticism.
IT’S ALL REAL, THE LASERS, THE FLYING TERMINIDS, EVERYTHING!

The controversy began when players started sharing screenshots showcasing flying Terminid enemies and blue lasers in Helldivers 2. Pilestedt initially brushed off these claims, labeling them as misinformation spread by bug sympathizers. However, his dismissive stance quickly backfired when a player presented irrefutable evidence to the contrary.
The screenshot in question captures the unmistakable presence of blue lasers streaking across the sky, accompanied by the menacing sight of Helldivers 2 Shriekers – the supposed “fake” flying bug enemies – descending upon the player and their Super Earth allies. This damning evidence has left Pilestedt with little room for denial.
In response to the incriminating screenshot circulating on Twitter, Pilestedt could only muster a defeated “Nooo…..” Clearly, the game director has been caught off guard by the unexpected revelation, and attempts to discredit the findings have been futile.
Despite the lighthearted nature of the situation, Helldivers 2 players have seized the opportunity to poke fun at Pilestedt’s earlier skepticism. Many have taken to social media to express their amusement, with some jokingly threatening to report the director to the Democracy Officer for spreading false information.
Meanwhile, speculation mounts about the significance of the blue lasers, which some believe could herald the return of the Illuminate faction from the original Helldivers. Known for their teleporting abilities, the Illuminate pose a formidable threat to Super Earth’s defenders, adding an extra layer of anticipation to the game’s unfolding narrative.
As players eagerly await further developments, Pilestedt finds himself in the midst of a playful uproar, reminding everyone that even in the midst of battle, there’s always room for a bit of humor.
