Or, play Helldivers 2 instead, where although you will constantly be bouncing between "It's so over!" and "We are so back!" every few months, you can earn the premium currency by just playing the game. You actually make a not-half-bad amount.

And, AND. You get to act out your favorite Starship Troopers/Terminator wars fantasies (also recently added: seafood is back on the menu, boys) by being able to quite literally rain hell from above, (almost) any time you want.

I shit you not every time an Alpha Commander runs I hear "IT'S AFRAID" in my head

(disclaimer: I still like DRG, I just prefer one over the other. Don't nobody start nothin'.)

It's harder to get medals than credits, in my opinion. More of a grind, I mean.

Grinding credits and medals specifically really changed how it works for me. If you need medals, complete the harder missions fast and ignore the chaff, get the 10/15 medals per level.

I just ran trivial difficulty, flat bug maps looking for credits and medal drops, because you don't even have to extract to get them. Get the 30-40 creds, then exit to ship. Skips all the cinematics, and you can jump right back in to looting in a minute.
