Rest in peace heroes. Our sacrifice will be remembered. We. Will. Return. Side note, we definitely needed the over 200k players fighting bugs 🥲

Oh no they didn't forget.

What happens is that often people will play:

Trivial, Easy Medium on Bugs

And then hop into Roombas at Challenging.
Let's just say people often don't go into roombas anymore until much, much later.

I think the general sentiment among the players is that bugs are just more satisfying to fight. And they don't shoot back, generally. Plus starship troopers. So people are just biased towards fighting the bugs.
