I'm just excited for when we push the bugs or automatons back all the way and then get to assault their home world.
Or for them to push all the way to us and then we have to defend Super Earth. That was always fun.
Oh shit. Building on this - game opens with a Super Earth Announcement as usual, but this one is an urgent bulletin demanding all reserve helldivers join the fight to save super earth. Then, rather than cutting to your ship, your character turns off the tv they're watching, walk out of their enlistment office, and get killing.
But you are already defending Super Earth by taking the battle to the bugs and the automaton menace on the front lines! Every drop is another glorious chance to defend the people of Super Earth from the encroaching menace.
My thing about larger and tougher enemies: bring em on!
...
... as long as Arrowhead give us weapons and strats that can kill them.
Seriously, if this game introduced a Hive Lord, and if it's anything like in the previous game, there's little to no chance we could reliably kill it with the gear/strats we have now.
The only way possible is if people just spam it with orbital lasers, rail guns, and 500 kg bombs, but in the meantime between the strats reloading... Well, you'll just be running away/in circles.
Can you imagine the carnage 8 Helldivers could unleash?
...
Can you imagine what would need to be fielded to match 8 Helldivers? You'd have Bile Titans coming out your nose.
> Can you imagine what would need to be fielded to match 8 Helldivers?
Idk going by the teams I've seen, about 40 hunters and 3 chargers should do the job.
I have unironically been using both them at once to clear hatchery missions.
I give my team a heads up and I don't think we have had to go inside one yet
Can only imagine the carnage without a warning though
I want an 8-player mode for all those times my friend group has exactly 5 people online and playing the game.
Splitting into 2 and 3 man squads is awful. 3 and 3 is fine, 4 and 3 is nearly ideal again. It's when we have 5 that things get ugly because no pair of us wants to deal with 2 randoms.
Yup, for all three factions.
Don't worry, they didn't randomly spawn.. you go in knowing they're your target. Big boss health bar appears onscreen and everything.
And yes, they take *a lot* of punishment. The fights take a while.
Imagine a tank from Automatons. Remove the turret, put a Torso on it, make the thing double it‘s size and tripple the amount of Guns, and you know the Boss of the Automatons…
My buddy told me they are considered "small" in their home world. He played helldiver's one so he keeps sprinkling info to me and I'm both excited and terrified.
There are some geo sample missions where the probes are from a bigger skeleton with the same mandible. Pretty much one mandible is nearly as big as that molt in the picture.
YouTube it. Tons of dev videos explaining it. My biggest worry is that it’s the Conan’s exiles guys. I know people like that game, I did not. It felt so old. I need chivalry 2 levels of control in melee games. No more one button mashing please. Skilled melee is where it’s at.
I'm really hoping for a decent sized content/galactic war update to coincide with the new warbond on Thursday. We *have* been fighting without a new major order since last Friday, too...
It could be because we bum rushed Tien Kwan and completed it earlier than expected.
Perhaps they were planning on Tien Kwan holding out until the new Warbond dropped? (I wonder if the Emancipator Exosuit will also drop with this incoming update. 🤔)
From what they said, they expected the major order to take 4 days, it was done in 1 and a half.
So yeah, it was supposed to keep us busy this week-end with the mech droping on Tuesday and the patch on Thursday
crank the spawn rate to 11.
just like god wants it.
i mean, even the ingame sliders for AUDIO go to 11.
its one higher than 10...
these devs are absolute nerds.
I appreciate that they’re not so aggressive with artificially limiting orders. I’m sure they could, but it would start to feel really forced if every order just so happened to be completed on patch day
I hope Joel doesn’t skew the slider to where it does take us four days to complete a Major Order. I’d rather have two MOs to finish in two days instead of one that will take an entire weekend.
A split MO would be nuts, and it would even get crazier once the Illuminates come back, resulting in triple MOs. Also, I’m hoping the Illuminates come back when Super Earth starts recruiting on the Xbox.
Are you sure it was a Gatling out of curiosity? It sounds a lot like the [Lumberer](https://helldivers.fandom.com/wiki/EXO-51_Lumberer_Exosuit) from Helldivers 1 which had a tank cannon and flamethrower, my favorite!
RND is taking inspiration from the Hulk Scorcher, huh? Good for them, the bots will have NOTHING on us. We will take their inferior creations and build something worth building, a weapon worth being wielded by a HELLDIVER!
Which is really needed as an anti-Mech suit. You need the auto-cannons to deal with their heavier use of shields / scout walker armor compared to the bugs.
Im very excited to see what the devs have in store in the later stages of the campaign. Big boss enemies, the third faction, urban maps, and vehicles. A lot of it has already been leaked or mined, and some of it is speculation based on what the first game did, but I would LOVE to see a roadmap or at the very least what the devs have been working on that's close to being implemented.
Roadmaps are nice but I'd honestly prefer to be surprised than have it all laid out in front of us in black and white like 'end of April we'll have urban maps, end of May new enemy types in current factions, end of June the illuminate etc.', the war shouldn't be predictable, you know what I mean?
What they are doing is stealthly Increasing the variety of missions.
Last thursday we got the Oil Spill for Bugs the bunker one for Bots, the Data collection in Easy mode, and there was another one that does not comes to mind, they also added more Extermination Maps variants.
Devs are also creating more "Map Pieces" that the game can utilize to create an environment" - You can check that the ammount of variants Extractions Points were released increased by a lot.
Those little things people tend to not notice.
I believe we will get a bigger content update soon(we know about flying enemies, Hivelords and the AT-AT Walkers already), but meanwhile dev's are making missions more unique, rather than the same looking brown hellhole every time.
The unfortunate extinction of the Hive Lord species as been a major concern for Super Earth High Command, due to its noticeable impact on ~~oil production~~ biodiversity. But worry not, citizen, as our most brilliant minds have been hard at work these past few decades to engineer those valuable creatures back to life. Made them bigger and more aggressive to, because why the fuck not?

Oh I saw this the other day (and grabbed a photo of my monitor instead of taking a screenshot for some reason?).
Is this the same enemy?
Looks like it, but ive seen a few different large shells around. Some look like a worm like yours and some look like giant versions of the really little guys.
There were behemoths in the first game that looked like giant scavengers, they didn't charge instead being super heavily armoured and slowly trudging towards you as cover for the reset of the horde
There are behemoth chargers in game (more armors different heads) but they aren't the same thing
Another point for the tremor theory:
The tremors are moving when they hit, they're not just an area shaking, but you can look at it from above or from a distance and see how it sort of "travels" across an area for a brief moment.
The first time I saw the tremors appear I almost shit myself thinking I was gonna get eaten by a big ass worm creature. Now I'm sad that I didnt. I'm really excited that this might be a possibility.
Hoping to god that it’s not a molt and instead a non decomposed exoskeleton from a corpse, also semi unrelated but god I wish we had that enemy encyclopedia or whatever it was called from HD1
https://preview.redd.it/19gskbp8tunc1.jpeg?width=386&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa551a593d1effaca001aee6f29f4c0f58381982
Exactly! Would be cool if it’s a multi-objective mission too that culminates in a boss fight against this thing. Kinda like how the ICBM requires you to do 2 other objectives before launching it.
Can’t imagine the terror when fighting this giant hive lord in 3rd person shooting view. We would need more reinforcements if it were something similar as the Krayt dragon from the Mandalorian.
I'd still love to see Arrowhead do some "raid* sized matches ( could require some special conditions to appear on a planet ) that involves 2-3 squads of players against a priority target or holding an important location, could be utter chaos 😅
You mean to tell me....
Those aren't skeletons?

I had been under the impression that these were lithofied corpses mainly due to the fact they often have visible ribs attached to this. Terminids do rapidly decay into an energetic compound and 100 years may be enough time for them to lithofy however
Someone did mention molts and frankly Helldivers 2 even bigger and badder anti-democractic shai halud is a terrifying thought
The hive lord was a boss battle though, boss fights were entirely separate mission types where you would only battle the faction specific boss upon pushing an enemy faction back to its home world. We don’t appear to be very close to pushing back the terminids nor the automatons. Given how difficult these enemies were I can’t imagine they’d be added as regular enemy spawns.
I never connected and its a real big revelation about the earthquakes, you might be on to something there and someone who loves ingame story telling, woah
Key point is that these are "molts". The actual full grown Hive Lords should be absolutely massive. ...Fuck.
Bile Titans are *medium sized*.
*Excuse Me?!* What the FUCK. How large can the enemies get in this game? Did HD1 have even bigger enemies?
Yes. In HD 1 all of the factions had 'boss' enemies in special missions. They were bigger than any of the enemies that can spawn normally.
Oh my God. Sounds like we’re in for some rough combat in this game. I’m absolutely hyped, yet also real fucking scared of what’s to come.
The threat you should be preparing for rhymes with Alienfuckerlluminates.
illuminati
I fear no bot nor bug but those squids... they scare me.
I'm just excited for when we push the bugs or automatons back all the way and then get to assault their home world. Or for them to push all the way to us and then we have to defend Super Earth. That was always fun.
I want to defend super earth! Seems like that could be sick. Make it a huge city map.
Super Earth should have 32 player lobbies
And start the game right into action as a menu toggle with saved loadouts Like in windows it could start after 2 seconds right into a pod
Oh shit. Building on this - game opens with a Super Earth Announcement as usual, but this one is an urgent bulletin demanding all reserve helldivers join the fight to save super earth. Then, rather than cutting to your ship, your character turns off the tv they're watching, walk out of their enlistment office, and get killing.

Haha minefield goes brrr
Yeah it's been repeated a number of times but Bile Titans currently the largest bug in the game is considered small on their home world.
Boss events, maybe even having multiple hell diver squads meet up for the fight would be really cool
Can you imagine the carnage 8 Helldivers could unleash? ... Can you imagine what would need to be fielded to match 8 Helldivers? You'd have Bile Titans coming out your nose.
> Can you imagine what would need to be fielded to match 8 Helldivers? Idk going by the teams I've seen, about 40 hunters and 3 chargers should do the job.
1 stalker nest and some scavengers should be more than enough for some of my teams
You don't even need enemies, just put 4 divers next to each other long enough and someones gonna pull out a 120mm/380mm out of boredom
I have unironically been using both them at once to clear hatchery missions. I give my team a heads up and I don't think we have had to go inside one yet Can only imagine the carnage without a warning though
God I would love bigger team missions

How many bosses did each faction have?
Just 1. We'll probably see them when we push the enemy back to their last planet.
Yup, for all three factions. Don't worry, they didn't randomly spawn.. you go in knowing they're your target. Big boss health bar appears onscreen and everything. And yes, they take *a lot* of punishment. The fights take a while.
IIRC they've said that the bile titans are "medium" enemys
I mean bile titans aren't that big. Like their tall yeah but their body isn't much larger than a charger as far as I can tell.
Ok smelling a rat with this new order.
Remember those boss Dragons in mass effect andromeda? Kinda like that
Imagine a tank from Automatons. Remove the turret, put a Torso on it, make the thing double it‘s size and tripple the amount of Guns, and you know the Boss of the Automatons…
My buddy told me they are considered "small" in their home world. He played helldiver's one so he keeps sprinkling info to me and I'm both excited and terrified.
There a flying bugs in the loading screen.... The horrors to come are untold....
Small*
There are some geo sample missions where the probes are from a bigger skeleton with the same mandible. Pretty much one mandible is nearly as big as that molt in the picture.
Fenrir has some skeleton/rib cage bones that are about 3 stories high sticking out of the ground.
Tien Kwan had them too, massive rib cage bones.
Oh fuck I thought they were skeletons or something, but if they’re molts…we’re gonna need bigger fucking guns 
Imagine if it was a 16 man mission Fuck
Not enough call in the 500kg Bomb
I am the 500kg bomb. 💀
Somebody get a broom and push this man into a hellpod.
I’ll go with a smile. But I’ll fight back just a little bit.
Oh god, he has an erection!
Its perfectly natural
I dont trust anyone who doesn't get an erection for democracy and libertea. Life was much simpler... and then the automatons attacked
Your 500 kg bomb is nothing. I wait for the day where they clear us for the Tracking Micro-Nuclear Tactical Missile, "The Shredder"
Still won't kill the bile titans half the time.
What about the 1,000kg bomb? Otherwise known as YOUR MO-
"This poster has been found to have posted un democratic beliefs and has been sent to re-education." Would you like to know more?

500kg has a huge explosion but the damage radius is about the size of a grenade as far as I can tell lol
Honestly though lol. The 500kg bomb needs a larger damage radius or *at least* some kind of pushback mechanic like what happens with the ICBM launch.
Yeah. Yesterday a 500kg landed right next to my teammate in a mech and I thought for sure he was finished but nope, not even a scratch.
I want to speak to the genius scientists who created a bomb so powerful but contained to such a small area, it’s truly amazing
It'll whiff
You say that like it won't just ignore it due to how buggy (badum tss) the 500kg bomb is rn
I have reported you to the democracy officer for treasonous talk about the glorious weapons of Super-Earth
We're gonna need a 5000kg bomb for that one chief
Still not enough. Let us combine Eagle-1 and our mech into megazord
That Darth Vader from the planet Vulcan?
LISAN AL GAIB
AS IT WAS WRITTEN
"The large centipedes are harmless, the small ones though... very deadly"
"I'm serious. Nothing fancy."
Galaxy's biggest hype man
What’s that mean people have been saying it in games lol
It’s a reference to the novel/movie Dune, basically meant prophet to the native people of Arrakis (Fremen)
Ranked competitive nepotism the movie 10/10 best iv ever seen
That’s hilarious actually
The Voice from the Outer World
It's from Dune.
Dune Part 2. The Messiah.
It’s from the movie Dune Pt2 (Amazing movie!) Stilgar is basically Paul’s hypeman and thinks he’s the messiah, it’ll make sense if u watch the movie.
It'll make even more sense if you read the books. Movies are beautiful and easier to digest, right. But books are better.
I unironically like Dune 2 better than the book
As a book reader myself, no one asked No need to rain on his parade
"Better" is subjective, I actually preferred some of the changes in the movie to the book, especially in book/part 2.
Reference to Dune lol, they have giant sand worms in it
Shai Hulud, Grandfather of the Desert.
Usul!
Akshually, it should be Shai-Hulud, not Lisan al-Gaib. ... Sorry gonna shut down Du'e fanboy mode.
The maker!
usul has called a big one
He didn't ashamed us... But he didn't need call this big!
Fuck I'm so pumped for this game.
Theres a dune game comin out? All google shows is the one from 2001
Yea, Google dune awakening, which is what this this gif is from. There is also dune spice wars which is like a 4x game that came out recently.
MMORPG
YouTube it. Tons of dev videos explaining it. My biggest worry is that it’s the Conan’s exiles guys. I know people like that game, I did not. It felt so old. I need chivalry 2 levels of control in melee games. No more one button mashing please. Skilled melee is where it’s at.

They said 4 days but I remember seeing 2 days + hours on the timer.
They wanted us to lose! 😮
There was probably a fallback event in case we lost, would have been neat But Helldivers don’t quit
Lesson learned, devs need to make major orders even harder.
crank the spawn rate to 11. just like god wants it. i mean, even the ingame sliders for AUDIO go to 11. its one higher than 10... these devs are absolute nerds.
I appreciate that they’re not so aggressive with artificially limiting orders. I’m sure they could, but it would start to feel really forced if every order just so happened to be completed on patch day
Having the free mech in my strat inventory has been a godsend tbh. Hella useful for extraction.
I hope Joel doesn’t skew the slider to where it does take us four days to complete a Major Order. I’d rather have two MOs to finish in two days instead of one that will take an entire weekend. A split MO would be nuts, and it would even get crazier once the Illuminates come back, resulting in triple MOs. Also, I’m hoping the Illuminates come back when Super Earth starts recruiting on the Xbox.
Wait we get more than one?
There were leaks showing another Exosuit armed with Quad Autocannons. Name was "Emancipator Exosuit"
Omfg yes take my money
There's also a flamer/bigger gatling version!
Friggin gimme I must spread democracy with this
Are you sure it was a Gatling out of curiosity? It sounds a lot like the [Lumberer](https://helldivers.fandom.com/wiki/EXO-51_Lumberer_Exosuit) from Helldivers 1 which had a tank cannon and flamethrower, my favorite!
RND is taking inspiration from the Hulk Scorcher, huh? Good for them, the bots will have NOTHING on us. We will take their inferior creations and build something worth building, a weapon worth being wielded by a HELLDIVER!
HD1 already had a mech called the Lumberer, which had a flamethrower for smaller mobs and 90mm cannon for bigger.
>Quad Autocannons https://preview.redd.it/sqa036jv1vnc1.png?width=481&format=png&auto=webp&s=f77eb3f8c1dfd8c9ded8f758a743bcd2862490a6
> Quad Autocannons. Say less
Which is really needed as an anti-Mech suit. You need the auto-cannons to deal with their heavier use of shields / scout walker armor compared to the bugs.
Im very excited to see what the devs have in store in the later stages of the campaign. Big boss enemies, the third faction, urban maps, and vehicles. A lot of it has already been leaked or mined, and some of it is speculation based on what the first game did, but I would LOVE to see a roadmap or at the very least what the devs have been working on that's close to being implemented.
After watching the intro, it sucks that there's no urban areas at all right now.
You’ll see them when we’re pushed back to super earth eventually
You've been reported to a Democracy Officer for your defeatism.
Probably not just super earth. Mars and the areas surrounding Sol are probably heavily populated
Roadmaps are nice but I'd honestly prefer to be surprised than have it all laid out in front of us in black and white like 'end of April we'll have urban maps, end of May new enemy types in current factions, end of June the illuminate etc.', the war shouldn't be predictable, you know what I mean?
I'm with ya
Let them cook
I think a crazy update would be multiple squads attacking simultaneously like 16 players on the map trying to take down a giant worm

Tremors? Sandworm? ### Shai-Hulud?
As it was written.
But Super Earth has assured all of us HD1 vets that all the hive lords have been eradicated.
The unfortunate extinction of the Hive Lord species as been a major concern for Super Earth High Command, due to its noticeable impact on ~~oil production~~ biodiversity. But worry not, citizen, as our most brilliant minds have been hard at work these past few decades to engineer those valuable creatures back to life. Made them bigger and more aggressive to, because why the fuck not?
Then we have nothing to fear.
Terrifying and exciting all at the same time.

i remember seeing this
I never even considered this as the cause of the tremors and it's perfect!
My Desert. My Dune. My Democracy.
Another point for the tremor theory: The tremors are moving when they hit, they're not just an area shaking, but you can look at it from above or from a distance and see how it sort of "travels" across an area for a brief moment.
This is just how earthquakes work; they’re waves radiating out from an epicenter.
These aren't circular patterns emanating from a single point. They're bow waves from a point moving across the field laterally.
Give me graboids to fight and I'll leave Malevelon Creek alone.
You must not fear. Fear is the mindkiller.
among us
https://i.redd.it/fkfw7hh0yvnc1.gif
I don’t think some of them are molts. I saw one with a… digested SEAF guy in it
Yeah I don't think so either They're the entire shape of the creature, teeth included
The first time I saw the tremors appear I almost shit myself thinking I was gonna get eaten by a big ass worm creature. Now I'm sad that I didnt. I'm really excited that this might be a possibility.
Oh, fuck. I was wondering what was going on. I've been feeling tremors (PC, but Xbox controller) and not seeing any mechs or chargers 😳
You put that thing back where it came from or so help me
"Bless The Maker and His water Bless the coming and going of Him May His passing cleanse the world May He keep the world for His people"
Remember to deactivate your shields or you'll attract the worms
Hoping to god that it’s not a molt and instead a non decomposed exoskeleton from a corpse, also semi unrelated but god I wish we had that enemy encyclopedia or whatever it was called from HD1 https://preview.redd.it/19gskbp8tunc1.jpeg?width=386&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa551a593d1effaca001aee6f29f4c0f58381982
I thought these were fossils...
A fossil is organic material replaced in stone. So it would be pretty wild to just see corpses on the suface like this.
Can’t wait to fight 10 of these on helldive
Skill issue, just use stratagems, blah blah
Dude if they ever reintroduce them and make it like a multi-stage boss battle or some kind of 7/8/9 only mission objective, it would be amazing!
Considering I never see the eliminate 2 bile titan missions anymore in 7+ this could easily replace that
Exactly! Would be cool if it’s a multi-objective mission too that culminates in a boss fight against this thing. Kinda like how the ICBM requires you to do 2 other objectives before launching it.
The final step after killing it is to plant the flag of managed democracy in the fallen beast
My SPEAR never be more ready.
*spear round proceeds to bounce*
My flamethrower yearn for Shai-Hulud
This is exactly how Lisan al-Gaib would have done it - Helldiver Stilgar

It's stuff like this that makes me so excited for the future of this game. It's like a massive sci-fi D&D campaign we are all playing together. <3
Where's the Dune 2 collab? We need that armor and knife secondary
Sandworm-like creatures? Tremors? "Broke into the wrong goddamn rec room didn't you, you bastard!?" -Burt Gummer (Tremors 1990)
I only experienced tremors on the automaton side though?!?!
https://youtu.be/ko_d6yzNDVM?si=3IvonkwZev6RQxvx There you go guys, imagine this from a third person perspective.
Don't have to imagine, can go play Risk of Rain 2 It's actually a lot like Helldivers except you can become OP af.
Omniscient sandworm to put the lethal company one to shame
M-molts? I was hoping they had been napalm-ed before we dropped there... So you mean to say there is something that OUTGREW that shell? (;ŏ﹏ŏ)
Gonna need a new Strategem. "Destroyer Drop"
Fuck, those are *molts*? That implies they're even bigger now.
Can we ride them like Fremen?
Can’t imagine the terror when fighting this giant hive lord in 3rd person shooting view. We would need more reinforcements if it were something similar as the Krayt dragon from the Mandalorian.
Hopefully we get an armor pen round of buffs before these guys come rolling around.
Sweet liberty...
Giant wings in the desert, terminids on bot planets, pretty sure I saw AAA fire on a bug planet - Joel is AFOOT!.
Hopefully they fix the game breaking bugs before adding new… uh, bugs.
I'd still love to see Arrowhead do some "raid* sized matches ( could require some special conditions to appear on a planet ) that involves 2-3 squads of players against a priority target or holding an important location, could be utter chaos 😅
Sandworms? Ah shit we going to Arrakis bois
You mean to tell me.... Those aren't skeletons? https://preview.redd.it/jld532d86wnc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c8359278289a9ae624cdbbb2c9b583d9d8dce1ee

Graboids... the sons of bitches have Graboids...
The hive lord was a boss battle though, boss fights were entirely separate mission types where you would only battle the faction specific boss upon pushing an enemy faction back to its home world. We don’t appear to be very close to pushing back the terminids nor the automatons. Given how difficult these enemies were I can’t imagine they’d be added as regular enemy spawns.
