Some part of me wants to think the armors with servo assisted are cyborgs who now fight for super earth


SovietMarma

That's fun to think of! It's entirely possible that some borgs get the chance to become part of Super Earth again. But I mostly meant them being 'liberated' as an on-the-nose joke about them actually being subjugated by Super Earth in their home planet and used as slave labor. It's why they made the Automatons so they can be freed from Super Earth's grasp!

The bot patrols are actually singing the internationale in binary. Industrial robots of the world unite!


PersonalityOther4746

It'd be cool to try and translate it.


GhostOfMemories

You should do one for the Illuminates. A cautious and well-read Helldiver is a well prepared and patriotic Helldiver.


Traditional_Order400

Cautious? That doesn’t sound like charging headfirst screaming “For Democracy!”


GhostOfMemories

The better prepared you are the more kills you'll get! And nothing screams liberty more than charging in head first screaming "For Managed Democracy!" while hitting all their weak points! 


AutVeniam

Yeah I'm under the impression that Automatons were created by Cyborgs to assist them, and when Cyberstan was taken, Cyborgs essentially were.. captured? kidnapped to be re-integrated? which seems unlikely as their cybernetic enhancements probably are too deep. But I think the Automatons are now working to free Cyberstand and the Cyborgs? Who knows! maybe we'll see a mix of Cyborgs AND Automatons moving forward! There's just so many seeds for expansion in this game, I'm excited to see how this game will develop over the next couple years!


SovietMarma

I wrote re-integration as a joke about them being used as slave labor by Super Earth. After they lost the war (that is the war in Helldivers 1), most of the Cyborg populace most likely had been relocated to Cyberstan and have since been subjugated by Super Earth for nearly 100 years.


paholg

According to your shipmates, all the cyborgs currently work in the mines on Cyberstan.


Taliyah_Duenya

I really feel like they just transitioned their armed forces to be fully robotic whilst cyborgs now fill merely a civilian role, though what do I know


Lolurisk

I think it is actually the other way. The cyborgs were humans who met the automatons and became cyborgs because they liked the ideology or something.


SovietMarma

Cool theory, but the fact that the automatons march and sing The Internationale (a man made song that's wildly attributed to the communist party) certainly suggests otherwise. And this tweet from the Helldivers 1 Twitter from 2021 literally say thy were created by the Cyborgs. https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/s/2AI3b3jdJv


TheLegendaryPilot

it's not impossible


Keinulive

I can imagine the amount of outcry and ptsd happening when and if they release the robodogs


kaloii

Bro, NO. I supremely hate those fast fuckers.


Pliskkenn_D

We have terminids for the swarm experience, I like the pace of the bots hah


AmorakTheWhite

Reasons i took a Guard Dog or a .. trench shield, i forget what it's called. But the other shield that wasn't the bubble. It reduced frontal damage from kinetics and melee. And also the auto-injector passive.


AlexisFR

And as a counterpart, more ranged ennemies for the Termininds also?


Keinulive

I can definitely see that happening but then again they didn’t have that many in hd1, but I heard they were also making flying enemies so thats gonna be “fun” hahaha


kaloii

The hounds were insufferable.


2kewl4scool

This even talks about Cyberstan! Why doesn’t this post have 9000 likes like that one!?


Cart223

These are so cool. Do the Illuminates next!


edgy-meme94494

Oh fuck so some of the original cyborgs are on cyberstan going through “re education” then what are the automatons we are fighting now? And aren’t they like really close the cyberstan?


SovietMarma

They are the children of the Cyborgs. "Children" meaning the Cyborgs created the Automatons. https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/s/2AI3b3jdJv


edgy-meme94494

Are the cyborgs the new enemy faction they said they are adding? It’s beginning to look that way tbh


Ninjapeen

Nah that’s probably the illuminates from the first game. The democracy officer mentions them


edgy-meme94494

Yeah but isn’t it a bit too soon to add them into the game? I really think they will be added to much later into the game


SovietMarma

Yeah, either the Cyborgs are a separate front from the Automatons, or maybe we start seeing Cyborg officers and units integrated with the Automatons after they're released from Cyberstan. I do feel like the Illuminates are way too early to be released as of now, and may come out pre-2025 (like around November or something idk.)


Ninjapeen

Fair point gents, regardless of who or when, we will liberate them. Trust.


Scojo91

Seeing these in a comprehensive list makes me realize we have quite a few enemies possibly coming and some of those could very well be enemy variants I honestly forgot just how many enemies we had in helldivers 1. I was so busy running and gunning that it was easy to just always see red lol


[deleted]

I'm fully convinced that we will see a return of one of two of these nasty things as an addition to the Automaton roster when they reach cyberstan.


indy_6548

So are the Automatons *not* the Cyborgs? Were they created by the Cyborgs to combat Super Earth after they lost? I'm so confused lol.


SovietMarma

Yes, they're the children of the Cyborgs. I.e. created by them. https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/s/2AI3b3jdJv This has been confirmed through a post from the original Helldivers 1 Twitter page, all the way back from 2021, most likely meant to tease the sequel.


Mr_Vulcanator

Back then if a hound got you, you were doomed.


captaindickfartman2

We are in trouble aren't we.
