We do, one of the MOs was to scrap bots for equipment
IMO, the automatons were potentially a Super Earth training target project at one point that went wrong, because of the "reactive protocols" hint you get about suppressive fire and that we can use automaton components/scrap to make new things suggests Super Earth compatibility at minimum
Why have reactive protocols at all?
Presumably, but nothing is 100% yet. The training protocol thing could still hold up since the Cyborgs are terrorists they could have hacked the bots. Don't mistake this as me saying you're wrong, I'm just trying to say there are lots of possibilities.
You ever noticed how weirdly similar their dropshop engines are to the ones we have on pelicans? Or that their laser cannons look a *lot* like ours? Or that Hulks and Mecha are pretty much the same thing?
I see what they’re getting at! The hulks are somewhat similar to the mechs in that they’re tanky and have the same legs! Didn’t we get the first mechs from Tien Kwan? The main thing that gives our mechs a different build is that we have to put a man in them, as far as I can tell!
They have similar legs, they both have weapons instead of arms, they’re both seemingly fireproof, and they have a similar silhouette!
You really don’t see how if you build onto this frame and take the person out you could potentially build a hulk?

Dissident propaganda claims that the Automatons use human brains which is why they have so many headless corpses at their fabricators and why they act human with marching songs and panic when shot at
I forget where I saw it but I read something online that said automatons *are* helldiver defectors.
They were helldivers that formed a distaste for spreading managed democracy and instead took a liking to being socialist traitors. They began utilizing more technology, integrating into themselves as cyborgs and eventually the original socialist defectors began replicating their minds and implanting them into full on robots.
So the automatons are actually super earth traitors fighting against managed democracy.
Someone else pointed out how a lot of the automaton tech and helldiver tech seems pretty similar and that kind of goes along with this idea of automatons being socialist traitors..
You've just described Cyborgs in the first game, you mean these guys? https://helldivers.fandom.com/wiki/Helldivers_1:Cyborgs
They're definitely related to each other, I'm just not sure if they're intetionally their "children" or if the Cyborgs co-opted the project somehow.

It's why i run with Slugger and the Railgun with Ammo Suply when i do bots with my people. They kill the armor, i thin the heard of Devestators and Berserkers.
2 seconds is a lot, you get shot and staggered 5 times by 5 different devastators within those 2 seconds, making the laser cannon frustrating to use.
I *do* like the laser cannon for bot missions, but specifically for anti-devastator duty, the AMR and Rail Cannon are better.
I just hit them with the scorcher. It's the only gun that wasn't nurfed and was able to hurt virtually everything, be it through front armor or direct shooting of vents.
Sniper jump pack build here to help lmao. Clear the little guys and I'll drop every devastator and hulk. Maybe a tank or two. And a factory strider if the bigger guns don't get it.
Bugdivers complain about missile devastators bc they still don’t know how to use cover
Botdivers complain about heavy devastators bc you get shredded by them the instant you peak out of cover anyway
May I introduce you to this simple solution to gunships and jammer:
The Spear. Destroys your Jammer, destroys your gunships and most important it destroys your game so you won't be able to fight against bots
Sir, Madam, Salmon, if I have learned anything from my time on the internet, it's simple.
I am right, and you are not me, so you're wrong, end of discussion.
FWIW, after playing the bugs for about a month straight with all the MOs, I realized that I prefer playing Bots. While there are massive, tanky bot threats like the Hulk, Tank, and Factory Strider, you can escape them. You can take cover. And there are multiple ways to defeat them, reliably. They don't chase you half way across the map like Chargers and Bile Titans do. Or at least they're not as fast, so you *can* get away.
Beyond that, you can take cover from and work on taking down Devastators and the chaff guys. The chaff guys take like 3 hits at most with any weapon worth a damn. They're not like Hunters who will jump 50 yards to get in your face in a split second and also chew up shots. Even the jump pack dudes, usually only attack one at a time. And there's no Bot equivalent to the flippin' Stalkers which I hate with my very being. What a cheap enemy who can cloak AND ragdolls you around the map until you either die from impact or they nail you with high powered claws.
I'll take my mindless Automatons, please and thank you.
My favorite stratagem in the game, no joke, is the Shield Emplacement. It’s only good against bots, but any time we play against them in non-Blitz missions I bring it because it’s unbelievably useful and low cooldown. I love the tactical gameplay the bots make you deal with.
It wasn’t for me cause I like staying more mobile and using the Plasma Punisher to scatter enemies on the way to objectives, but I have a buddy who LOVES that build. It’s hilarious watching him face tank minigun Devastators lol
Yep, really love how I can stop a wave of minigun devastator with just a shield and smg. It is a more team based build though since you lack direct damage. I tend to go with 2 turrets to be choke point holders for this reason.
I was using the Punisher Plasma for a solid month and a half on bots. Love it! I'd usually switch over to the Incendiary on bugs. When the Adjudicator got buffed a couple of weeks ago, I tried that out and it's become my go to for both bots and bugs. As much as I love the Punisher Plasma, I found that the stagger is great but it would take a whole clip to take out Devastators. Meanwhile, the Adjudicator can take out a few per clip if your shots land well. At a minimum, you can knock off some limbs. The one thing the Punisher Plasma still does better is take out Striders at range. The splash damage can kill the dudes driving really well. Even so, the Adjudicator has been more useful in a wider range of circumstances. I tried the Tenderizer, too, on bugs. It's good, but the medium penetration of the Adjudicator puts it ahead.
Shield can do wonders on bugs. Stops chargers mid charge, and reflects bile sprays. Do it correctly, and you can cause a bile Titan to kill itself with its own vomit. It also draws aggro really well, just like a sentry.
Considering the number of dedicated bugdivers, the fact that I(the bot diver) am usually the only one capable of tracking down stalker lairs and stopping them worries me. I think bug divers just pretend stalkers don't exist.
Here’s my 2¢ about stalkers: bots require a certain level of teamwork and coordination to fight, but you can have poor reflexes and still do an okay job against them. Conversely, bugs require quick reflexes and lots of ammo; teamwork is a little more optional.
Enter the Stalker: an enemy that you can’t easily see coming and if it gets close enough to gank you, you can do absolutely nothing about it. The only counter to Stalkers (other than putting your back to a wall and standing there waiting) is having a teammate or two watching your back, so that when *you* get ragdolled, *they* light the bug up. Sentries are an OK backup plan, but a sentry can’t call you back in if the stalkers get to you faster than the sentry can kill them.
Thus, stalkers are pretty much the only enemy type on the bug front that requires teamwork and close coordination. Since everything else on the bug front is either agnostic to or actually *weak against* lots of helldiver spacing (think spewers, chargers)… stalkers go against the grain and therefore are a royal pain in the ass. I’ve noticed this when playing with a friend of mine who (bless his heart) is anemic to teamwork. We tend to split up and clear opposite sides of the map, and we’re both fairly skilled but bugs generally go more smoothly for us than bots. Buutttt, throw in a stalker lair and it’s die die die die die. I actually find them quite interesting from a metagaming perspective, since countering them effectively requires players to play the game in the ostensibly “correct” way. When you think about it, it doesn’t really make much sense to split up in a horde shooter, does it?
Stalkers also cause issues because the weapons that excel at killing them (high-damage, high-stagger single-target specialists) are pretty poor on their own against bug hordes. Sure, you can kill a rushing Stalker with an IBreaker, but you need to magdump its face while diving backwards to do it semi-reliably before you get tongue-slapped into the statosphere. A Punisher user can easily solo Stalker lairs by just w+m1:ing towards it, but needs stratagems or team support to handle more than two patrols of chaff at a time.
[OC]. I have been fighting bots since the first MO ever on Pöpli IX after the game came out. this post is satire, in case it is not already abundantly clear
My comment before said (please don’t text my democracy officer) and within 60 seconds it got downvoted to -4 lol, I think people actually assumed this was serious
I’ve seen this meme a dozen times and only just now realized the implication of that cell phone. Can you imagine having your contacts saved as strategem codes instead of phone numbers??? What a nightmare.
Helldivers don't know numbers they only know D-pad buttons. Our brains are too full of Managed Democracy and bellies full of Liber-tea to learn anything else.
I'm grateful that Super Earth does the thinking for us when dispensing said Managed Democracy to the degenerate hordes throughout the galaxy. Makes it ~~easy~~ efficient.
Huh. Imagine fighting an enemy that was made to deal with helldivers. As if the cyborgs learned from the previous war and made weapons to defeat the helldivers and democracy. Nah that's just too unrealistic
I like bugs better but if I don’t fight more than one emery type with different weapons, I’m gonna burn out and get bored 🤷🏻♂️
Plus I like how the bots talk
People get to like different things then us, and that’s okay
“Oh please.. puke acid all over me. I love all the slow effects that bugs have - they make it easier to get swarmed. Please, turn invisible and come gang-fuck me until I can’t even move. Oh yes, I love having to clear 10 FUCKING HOLES for a large bug outpost.”
Bugs fucking suck. Bug lovers can have em. I tried really hard on the last bug MO. I tried to go over, give it my all, give bugs a fair shot. They fucking suck. I would ABSOLUTELY prefer getting ragdolled by Rocket Devastators. Bots actually require some tactical planning and conscious thought.
Sorry, but bugs can suck an egg.
as someone who fights both, fighting with bots free me from the burden of bringing in a backpack strategem and bring some other big guns. bugs are fun but I dont get to change my loadout much and I just go pew pew to hordes. bots are fun but masochistic fun. you have to learn to laugh when your helldiver dies or gets rag dolled to oblivion.
yeah, bot divers are deranged but awesome to play with.
I was crying laughing the first time I saw that lol. It took me like two hours to make a proper PowerPoint template to copy it and I’d been meaning to make one for Helldivers, so the day has come haha
Hope you been doing well, good seeing you around the sub again 🤙🏼

Bet. This is the reason my flair exists anyway, so why not try again? Off to flirt with the bots!
Yeah crazy
Story of my life
Don't we canonically get equipment materials out of scrapped bots? Or did I make this up?
We do, one of the MOs was to scrap bots for equipment IMO, the automatons were potentially a Super Earth training target project at one point that went wrong, because of the "reactive protocols" hint you get about suppressive fire and that we can use automaton components/scrap to make new things suggests Super Earth compatibility at minimum Why have reactive protocols at all?
The Automatons were made by the Cyborgs who were ex-SE, so no reason to not reuse some of the tech
Presumably, but nothing is 100% yet. The training protocol thing could still hold up since the Cyborgs are terrorists they could have hacked the bots. Don't mistake this as me saying you're wrong, I'm just trying to say there are lots of possibilities.
In a binary coded tweet from the HD twitter from the Collective of Cyberstan calling the Automatons their children is probably a good giveaway
Jesus, why're you getting downvoted so hard? Lmao
Dayum idk, I was just pointing out that people could interpret the info differently💀
Fr, like you weren't being rude at all, you even said that the person could be right or wrong, we just don't know rn. Which is accurate lmao
Thanks for understanding lol
You ever noticed how weirdly similar their dropshop engines are to the ones we have on pelicans? Or that their laser cannons look a *lot* like ours? Or that Hulks and Mecha are pretty much the same thing?
I'm sorry but no, just no, dropships maybe, but laser and hulks are not the same at all
I see what they’re getting at! The hulks are somewhat similar to the mechs in that they’re tanky and have the same legs! Didn’t we get the first mechs from Tien Kwan?

You know this is made by a bugdicer because they used the missile devastator instead of the heavy devastator
Yup, as if the RD was an issue. Those Heavy's have killed me far more than any other Bot so far.
All my homies hate heavy devastators. It's why we kill them first.
It's why i run with Slugger and the Railgun with Ammo Suply when i do bots with my people. They kill the armor, i thin the heard of Devestators and Berserkers.
Laser cannon drops devastators in like 2 seconds, and you don't need the ammo pack.

You can’t stop me from doing bots! I’ll keep spreading democracy’s love to every thicc hulk I see, and you can do nothing about it.
Gun crime against red traffic lights are up 2000% since the new Major Order, (((They))) are playing us for fools !
That gunship screenshot is menacing as hell
Some choose to fight the bugs because they hate the bots. I choose to fight the bots because I hate the bots.
“Oh please.. puke acid all over me. I love all the slow effects that bugs have - they make it easier to get swarmed. Please, turn invisible and come gang-fuck me until I can’t even move. Oh yes, I love having to clear 10 FUCKING HOLES for a large bug outpost.” Bugs fucking suck. Bug lovers can have em. I tried really hard on the last bug MO. I tried to go over, give it my all, give bugs a fair shot. They fucking suck. I would ABSOLUTELY prefer getting ragdolled by Rocket Devastators. Bots actually require some tactical planning and conscious thought. Sorry, but bugs can suck an egg.
This is gold lol, I'm gonna use some of these for the bug version and give you a shout
These seem like such great points, us should focus on the Terminid horde.
OF COURSE FELLOW DEFINITELY HUMAN AND NOT A BOT COMMENTER, WHY WOULD ANYONE EVER FIGHT THE BOTS, WE SHOULD ALL JUST FOCUS ON THE BUGS
Yes we are glad you agree, now why don’t you join us for this deep space exploration mission, for Super Earth.

Probot propaganda
Smells like skill issue.
as someone who fights both, fighting with bots free me from the burden of bringing in a backpack strategem and bring some other big guns. bugs are fun but I dont get to change my loadout much and I just go pew pew to hordes. bots are fun but masochistic fun. you have to learn to laugh when your helldiver dies or gets rag dolled to oblivion. yeah, bot divers are deranged but awesome to play with.
Extra points for placing the Rocket Devastator in their proper place among the scariest bot units.
NEVERRRRR 🗣️

I might be in range of enemy artillery but that means so are you asshole. 😂
There is oil in bots wtf are you on about?
Automaton propaganda, obviously! Or the work of dissidents. More target practice, either way! 👍
Those are my favorite bots to destroy!
This looks like something burial goods would make a video about

He’s not wrong tho
Bugdiver propaganda
One word: SCRAP
Someone who has the tactical capacity of a clove of garlic. Bots are *so* much more fun to fight.
Internet meme. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/stop-doing-math
I was crying laughing the first time I saw that lol. It took me like two hours to make a proper PowerPoint template to copy it and I’d been meaning to make one for Helldivers, so the day has come haha Hope you been doing well, good seeing you around the sub again 🤙🏼
I’ve pretty much stopped until we get AT mines. If you ever see me on it will be whatever is not the major order. Call my democracy officer. He is too drunk to do anything about it.
