How to Get the Car in Helldivers 2

So, you want to get your hands on the car in Helldivers 2? It's not as simple as stealing a civilian vehicle. In the world of Helldivers, it's all about calling in the big guns, and that includes vehicles. The "car" you're looking for is officially called the M-102 Fast Recon Vehicle, or FRV for short. It's a Supply Stratagem, which means you'll need to call it in during a mission.
To get the car in Helldivers 2, you'll need to have the FRV Stratagem unlocked. This is done through the game's progression system. Once you have it, you can equip it in your loadout before a mission. During the mission, you'll need to input a specific code using the d-pad or arrow keys to call it in.

Where to Find the Car
Now, here's the tricky part. The FRV isn't available on every planet. It's typically found on planets with urban colonies, especially those under the control of the Illuminate. I remember one time, my squad and I were pinned down by a massive Illuminate patrol. We were running low on ammo and things were looking grim. Then, our squad leader remembered he had the FRV in his loadout. He called it in, and we were able to make a quick getaway, guns blazing. It was a real game-changer.
So, how do you find these urban colonies?
- Look for planets in the Saleria Sector.
- Check the planet description for "urban colonies."
- Keep an eye out for Illuminate-controlled planets.
Once you're on the right planet, open your map and look for the FRV icon. They're usually visible from the moment you land. If you can't find one, don't worry. They tend to spawn randomly on the map, so keep exploring and you're bound to come across one. I once spent a whole mission on foot because I couldn't find a single FRV. It was a long and grueling mission, and I learned my lesson: always check the map for vehicles.
The FRV is a great way to get around the map quickly and efficiently. It's also got a mounted machine gun, which is perfect for taking out swarms of enemies. Just be careful not to crash it, as it's not the most durable vehicle in the game.
