They're back... my dad fought the illuminate back in '13 during the first intergalactic war... that shit changed him. Before that, he was a happy man, always had a smile and kind word for others. After the squidies? He was cold.
He told me to consider myself lucky if I never encountered them. Sorry dad... guess I'm not that lucky.
For Super Earth!
Awesome role play ✊🌎🇺🇳

Helldivers 2 getting a new enemy faction within 2 months, while Destiny hasn’t gotten one in about 6 years.
Legitimately though
I was going to say that, Warframe also added a couple of new enemies on yesterday’s update, crazy how a new faction was added just a few months ago and it is being expanded, seems like Bungie is the one being mismanaged as both Arrow Head and Digital Extremes are tiny studios compared to them. 🤦🏻♂️
Can't over deliver too much now
😂
Ngl, no new enemy faction is probably why I'm barely excited for TFS. A new enemy to fight thematically would be huge, I don't care if they might feel similar I just want something new thats not a reskin with a single gimmick.
"9 out of 9" scientists agree because the 10th was sent for "re-education"
In another tip it says 9 out of 10 scientists agree. I think it was about humans needing air or something so the 10th scientist probably wasn't all too bright...
that...actually makes sense I didnt think of that
Lol that's what I was thinking 😂😂
"due to treason for (redacted)"
They just didn’t appreciate democracy.

The eldritch horrors beyond comprehension vs. The unbreakable will of humanity
think more like squid people
Squids, far.
The cutting edge war bond armour having high resistances to Arc damage makes a lot more sense now.
I’m sure some of the non-meta guns will soon make sense against the new faction.
@@DSplatter I think Illuminate shields are very good anti-laser
Arc weapons were originally an illuminate thing. So yeah. Problem I see is that 95% reduction means it's going to be super op or absolutely essential
@@TormentedPenguinif we take into account how anti explosion armor is suggested to be antibot armor and how seldom it saves from rocket devastators and presume the same negligible effect 50% explosion damage reduction has is achieved at 95% for illuminate weapons it appears we're in for some fun
@@TormentedPenguin that's not really true, the first one had arc throwers
As a vet of the first game, I can not stress how hard these assholes were. Unless you cheesed it with mechs and specific weapons, they were the hardest race by far. I am both excited and terrified to see these guys again because they'll make Malevelon Creek look like a kids' playground. We aren't ready for the squids
If that is the case, hopefully enough of our troops and ships will have the upgrades needed for when they show up. They better not show up too soon…
Illuminates were annoying at times, but the Cyborgs were absolutely the hardest faction at the highest difficulty. Once you got used to the flipped controls and started equipping stratagems like the personal dome shield backpack, the Illuminate's lethality was in line with the bugs.
Cyborgs were just a chore to fight. Almost every war I participated in that Super Earth won, they were the last faction left on the war map... if they add those forsaken dogs to HD2, I might just lose it lol
@@bojkashapirax6283 I guess it was just down to playstyle. Cyborgs for me you can just overpower with mechs and heavy weapons. Sure they could one shot you and the Seige Mech was and still is a scary boss. (NOT looking forward to its return in HD2) But just pew pew them better than they pew pew you and you're golden.
The squids on the other hand you always had to constantly be on the move because of their confusion attacks or lightning attacks or melee charges. but you also had to keep the pressure on most of them because of their sheilds. Otherwise you were wasting ammo. For me your team had to be on point most of the fight because once one of you died it was a domino effect. But My playstyle is of a caveman. Hit it hard before they hit you. Squids felt like you were playing DDR having to dip and dive half of their attacks so to me I was out of my element.
@@bojkashapirax6283 however what's interesting is the meta seems to evolved around my kind of playstyle. Just overpower with better firepower. The squids (if they keep it the same as they did in the first game) is by far a different enemy that I bet most of the new helldivers aren't use to. Having to actually pay attention to the ground to dodge attacks. I mean they had to nerf the meteor showers because of that.
@blbprime11 Given the new combat system, if the Illuminate are at all similar in playstyle, they will be very difficult. Think the main reason I never really minded them was due to the 2D nature of HD1. Given 360 degree vision, you could always see what was going on during battle and account for control-flipping attacks before you were affected by them. The other advantage was how much easier it was to aim in general, allowing you to quickly adapt. Being in third person, aiming will be rough with flipping controls and reduced vision will mean you can be flipped without warning
Ahh...Protoss...my old enemy
"cold is the void"
My wife for hire!
"I have returned"
“We need more solarite, Artanis.”-Karax said calmly.
Carrier has arrived.
Those "Tripods" come straight outta "War of the Worlds". And that sh*t scares me.
Fog horn at the distance...
Imagine, what if they had a smoke screen function... but it's blood red. Blindingly blood red.
Reminds me of the striders from half life
War of the world's creatures are genuinely horrifying, even just in the book without any visuals. The movie really took the edge off them
I'VE SEEN THE BLUE BEAMS
It be really cool if Illuminates start making small appearance while doing other missions. Preferably on Major order missions.
They already do! There are clips of blue lasers shooting down automaton drop ships. Such weapons are not available anywhere but illuminates
@Scardpelt
Wait, the illuminates are HELPING US??? Didn’t we kick the shit out of them last time we fought them?! are they fighting a disaster and/or an ideological schism in their race and hoping by helping us kill the machines that they won’t have our species boot shoved up their asses??
And I’m almost certain we’re probably gonna fight the illuminates, but this raises a couple questions: are we gonna fight them as 1 people, or are we gonna have to worry about friendly fire amongst not just ourselves, but the illuminates working alongside us for managed democracy?? And the ultimate billion credit question: WHAT THE HELL IS GONNA HIT US FROM THE SOUTH OF SUPER EARTH?!?!!
@@Scardpeltproof? I just wanna see
@leckallen2350 Just google “helldivers 2 blue beams” man. You will get a lot of results
There's a sound bite in the Destroyer warning us about artifacts, and that we should report them immediately.
The renders of the Illuminate feels... less technologic? It looks like after the defeat of the first game, they became space nomads, no longer the great civilization they once were. They feel like a religious sect like monks, with wraps on their limbs. I bet they still have powers, but its differences in design from the first game gave me that impression.
The illuminates in the first game are the scouts of their galactic empire. We never truly fought them at large. The illuminates we'll fight in HD2 might be another scout party.
Well super earth kindly borrowed their technology to upgrade their ships and stuff.
@@D3adCl0wn That is just a theory don't go around spreading it like gospell.
they look a lot like the fallen from destiny in the new renders
Orrrrr they know us now and will come back with a vengeance. Watch them have shields on their infantry
Considering we have the clunkers on the ropes, I can totally see a sneak attack coming with a third front being established.
Yeah Joel is probably gonna distract us with illuminate while the bots get to cyberstan
Not just the Clanks but the bug front is pretty stable, too. It feels... Too easy....
J.O.E.L is 100% about to flip the script with the Illuminates opening a new front down South.
(Edit)
I mean I was half correct I guess lol
The Automatons are gonna start pushing back. The fight on Malevelon Creek is too easy currently, J.O.E.L is gonna give them a boost pretty soon.
The dispatches coming with the latest Major order could be understood as indicating a massive automaton horde waiting just outside of the galaxy. Question is, what will happen first: Iluminates appearing, massive Automaton reinforcements, Terminids running out of control again (completely unrelated to the TCS, of course)...
@@christophvogel1080 I think a major content update for Bots will come first, like a major campaign against their push for Cyberstan. After we win that event, Illuminates might be next. The bug front is a fluke anyway, we just fight them for oil and not really in a real war with them.
now I wanna see how each enemy race will interact with each other like them collaborating with each other or they fighting over for territories
If the fronts merge , it would be cool if factions actually started attacking eachothers planets.
@@Paradox1012 or they could just team up and gang up their common enemy
@@Paradox1012 Maybe against the bugs but I 100% see the bots and luminoids working together.
The Illuminate definitely are only interested in getting revenge on Superearth, I imagine the bots would be fine farming the bugs, but the illuminate may purposefully mutate the bugs to make them even stronger, and arm the bots with better weaponry. The illuminate want us DEAD and nothing else. The bots want to free cyberstan and the cyborgs, the bugs are just fighting back because if they don't they'll keep getting farmed for their blood, the illuminate are just here to fuck us over for driving them out of the galaxy.
@@pyerack Don't worry, socialist never hold a deal and will always betrayal their fellows and break all alliances. They will soon become our pawn in no time.
Literally War of The Worlds with The Tripod that's scary
half life too. theirs are called Striders. AH could be pulling from both
Would be scary if they have that fog horn warning thing too 😳
@@Duke_Silver77 God please no. Come to think of it, Arrowhead gotta pump the sound design in the game over-all. So far the bots got that marching chant.
@@D3adCl0wnThat stuff goes hard
@@D3adCl0wn I've got some bad news for you then.
Literally everyone is looking past the biggest and most obvious answer to if the illuminate are coming or not. They literally are because one of the premium warbound packs is the armor set has a 95% resistance to arc damage. What gives arc damage? Illuminates
And your friends with poor aim!
I see it the other way. It's quite likely they won't do electricity damage. Why would they give us 95% damage immunity to an enemy faction? Would be broken af
@@mariboustate4707They don't just use arc weapons and will likely still be very powerful even with armor
@@mariboustate4707The armour are most definitely intended for the illuminate. Literally no other enemy deals arc damage. In terms of game balance, it would make sense for them to implement enemies to deal arc damage to compliment the gear. Its not like its broken or op, since only one enemy faction dishes out arc damage, making the armour sets somewhat niche in use.
We haven't gotten acid or fire resistance, yet we already have arc resistance.
I honestly believe they did so to both tease us(pun intended) and to have a deniability with how friendly fire some arc weapons are.
One thing I'm surprised no one is talking about is the Cyborg faction from Helldivers 1. The Devs stated on release that these aren't the Automatons, and one of the voice lines from Service Technician Thomasson specifically references both the automatons and the cyborgs working in the mines :O
The automatons are fighting to free their creators which is why they're heading to cyberstan, rather than super earth.
The Cyborgs got ensla- I mean, they are paying reparations after they were defeated during the Siege of Cyberstan at the end of the First Galactic War.
The cyborgs were already dealt the swift hand of democracy
Are the blue beams in the room with us now?
😂😂😂 gold
Always was. (Astronaut Pistol)
it could be any one of us
I love gay people.
@@drghaamhussainbut do they love you?
The illuminate are without a doubt coming! There’s been multiple times now while playing against the termini’s or automatons, I get shot by a blue streak or laser and turn to see my assailant with no one there. Super excited for this new enemy addition whenever it does happen!
I know I wasn't crazy when I was freaking out from being shot by a blue beam.
it actually happens when a projectile bounces off of armor
I know what you’re saying, but this isn’t that lol. I was running around with armor pack on, and an INCOMING blue beam hit me. Not an out going shot!
@@DrassysWorld ok thats weird
@@DrassysWorldIf someone hits armor with an arc projectile then it bounces off and arcs over to the nearest target, and sometimes that is us, be careful with when and where you shoot.
When the illuminate do come the cutting edge-warbond armor that provides 95% resistance damage to arc damage would be more useful now due to the fact that they use arc/electric based attacks.
Would be cool to see 2 enemy factions on one planet and mission fighting each other and the helldivers.
Arrowhead tried that, couldn't pull it off and won't be doing it for the foreseeable future, the CEO said so on Twitter.
Most likely automatons should somehow start enhancing bugs into cyborg bug to make them even formidable instead. THat would be more intresting
While that might not actually happen, lore wise it has. I was on a bug planet the other day and noticed automaton corpses littered around.
Great as it would be features like that are hard to pull off and creates instability/glitches/performance issues. It requires a LOT of testing and tweaking. Right now the devs want to focus and keeping the game stable while adding content. Maybe in future.
@@axios4702 understandable. Maybe in the far future when all 4 enemy factions are revealed
I want to fight those big ass Hive Boss’s, Shai’hulud! If the skeleton or “molts”show how big the animal is, then it should be even bigger after it molts.
Mahdi
They kinda feel like both Eldar and Tau from Warhammer 40K. Really love the influences they add in Helldivers 2, along side the iconic film, Starship troopers. For Democracy! For the emperor!
I can see the 40k influence but they also remind me of both war of the worlds, the covenant from halo and a bit of the combine.
They're most similar to the Protoss, I think.
I mean their symbol on the boss healthbar in the 1st game is almost identical to the Tau emblem. Now they supposedly "follow ethereals", being "nomads" and some undergoes "body modificaltions". So Tau + Aeldari + Dukhari xD
I mean Termanids, what sounds like termanids? Tyranids. Termanids are Tyranids but better, and in more need of being introduced to democracy.
For the what, soldier? What is this emperor you are talking about? This isn't a monarchy, soldier, this is a republic! You should praise senator Killjoy who made our dream come true, not some random imaginary emperor! Will I have to call the democracy officer to escort you to the nearest re-education facility?
I want them to let us use Super Earth as a social space like the tower in Destiny, and also add more places for us to explore in our ship and stuff to do in it
In the First Galactic War, Super Earth was the place where you went to train and capacitate low-ranking officers (liutenants, captains, majors) into high-ranking officers (colonels, brigadiers, generals, and finally, admirals of Super Earth). So they could turn the tide of the losing war they were facing at the time.
Looks like most of the illuminate designs are take inspiration from Starcraft... Protoss faction... Dark Templars, Zealots, Colossus though reminds me of the fighting machine from "War of the Worlds... For the Terminids the shriekers resumble the mutas, nursing spewers banelings.
The bigger question is if either the northern or southern campigns are the illuminate what is the other race that yet to reveal themselves?
the cyborgs probably, but they might be to similar to the bots and just become added units to the faction.
This new one might be like the covenant from Halo. In the future we might see guerrillas, zombies or monsters.
it has to make sense thematically, but it cant feel like a repeated faction.
There's only 3 fronts, bots and cyborgs will extend towards Cyberstan, and the Illuminates will attack from the south.
@@D3adCl0wn They could still add another front and faction compared to the first game.
They may also develop other types of actions. Like colonial rebellions. Or other types of missions and conflicts to add some other kinds of combat and gameplay to the game.
They have a lot of options they could potentially do in this game.
We will not let this threat to managed democracy prevail! For liberty fellow Helldivers! FOR SUPER EARTH!!
i guess the "cutting edge" armor would be useful after all
Probably now maybe a good time to call in the XB reinforcements. Or train up more helldivers.
Id go with the former option cus the Illuminates seem to be based off the Covie's which us XB guys fight against them often.
Lol Xbox owner here. I just bought a ps5 just for this game.. We here too haha
Not happening buddy
I have had many… “accidents” when dealing with the Illuminate in the first galactic war, but now I shudder to imagine what the can do now after all this time.
i hope the tripods have the war of the worlds horn. Absolutely terrifying.
We need The HellJumpers Reinforcements!!
Man I should I really give HellDivers 1 a go if I want to learn all the previous lore and better understanding of Illuminates
Did you take a look at the war map recently? We pushed back the bugs and the clankers. So what are you talking about?!
Johan Pilestedt communication to the players reminds me of Jeff Kaplan back in the golden Overwatch 1 days.
The illuminate walker immediately gave me flashbacks to the fucking hl2 hunters
Flashbacks to trying to protect all the buildings at White Forest...
It reminded me of hl2 striders and that enemy was hard to beat like I spent 20 minutes trying to kill just three of them. So I'm scared of what the tripods are gonna be like.
Can't wait to log into helldivers 2 one day and hear my ship give an alert that the Illuminate are attacking from the North/South sector
13:26 saw a friend get obliterated by one of those. we were on the extract, there were no plants around that could have hit him (he was lying on a building with a sniper) and i saw the beam spear him through the skull.
reported to local democracy officer for intentional spreading of misinformation
The illuminate: "fuck that guy in particular"
It’s the new Ricochet update, bullets that bounce actively target team mates. It’s not the illuminate.

The vehicle was given by a friendly hacker, lol
Do you not know Joel?
@@IanVelazquez-jk3tvthe devs confirmed that it was not Joel, it was a friendly hacker using his name. The devs found it funny and took no issue with it
My old man is a veteran in the war, and during his time he told me a very interesting story. While on a hell dive, he had a backpack shield equipped, ready to tear our enemies apart. However, during his excursion, his shield had been shot and destroyed by a blue laser! Similar reports dictate that the perpetrator was an Illuminate sniper, warping out of sight before my old man could make eye contact. They don’t just live among us already; they’re toying with us. Despite what the ministry of truth babbles to the good citizens of Super Earth and our fellow Helldivers, it’s only a matter of time before the galaxy is sieged by our oldest foe. One last note, and this is a personal preference: I got a bad feeling that new enemies lie on the horizon, waiting for their chance to eliminate all of humanity and democracy!
No one expected the actual 3rd enemy. Sony Executives.
I wasnt subscribed until you said you meant it that you love us. SUBSCRIBED.
Great video! I loved the first Helldivers game and still rank it among the top of my all-time favorite games. There is sooooo much more goodness in the first one that I am sure will make its way into the game over time. I agree with this method the devs are doing because it keeps the game fresh for a long time to come.
In the first game it is a fact, that shield pack, ark thrower and suspension field (aoe stun stratagem) are based off of Illuminate tech, among other things. So the fact we have these things in Helldivers 2, but not Illuminates, probably means they were wiped from public knowledge by govt, and the race itself is probably lurking around, waiting to strike against the Superearth.
Now, picture these monsters in first person and in full 3D.
Or, are we gonna get to desecrate their altars and destroy cultural sites as objectives?
"Give war a chance!!!"
Hope so!
I’ve been trying for ages to remember what the illuminate were like on the OG Helldivers so thanks for this!
I was late into the pod on this one. I cant remember the last time I played a game that made me obsess like this. I cant stop watching Helldiver stuff!!
I LOVE IT!
Like hell the community is ready. They are always ready
I'm not so sure, Sarge. Lots of treasonous cowards keep complaining about the bots being too hard...
@@pyerackThey're not hard. They just require different tactics. As will the Illuminate. But the only way to learn is to have boots on the ground.
Love you too, Evan. But we ARE ready for these enemies of managed democracy! 🧐
The illuminate look like a mix between the Eliksni and Psions.
Can't wait to see these guys in action!
Very cool. Almost giving me "Combine" vibes from half life. The walkers look similar to combine striders in their pseudo-fleshy, biomech type of way
I am happy they are adding more enemy factions. I hope they add new kinds of maps and missions also. Like if the devs made Mars and Earth maps fighting in cities and suburbs of a semi destroyed earth would be awesome. I am sure the GM can come up with a good lore reason why Earth and Mars are under threat. Bug outbreak on a clandestine research facility on Super Earth. Bots deep strike on Earth. Illuminate sympathizers open some kind of space time tech portal for them so they start striking at Earth cities.
Well, they HAVE to do that anyway if the front gets pushed back enough. So that's almost obvious.
We can already park our destroyers in Super Earth to some extent. If you go offline on a sector that's almost liberated, your destroyer will be sent to Super Earth.
So many people just don't understand how the whole community galactic war thing works.
@@Largentina. no I understand that it is community based organic front but there is a games master who can control the flow of what happens. I mean right now we are on the last sector for the bots. lets say we organically take all the planets then what we don't ever play against bots anymore?
@@mintint4965 Yup. You really don't understand how this works or what the Game Master does.
i guess 95% electric res will be a must
those renders look SIC, thanks for showing.
It was quite cool to recognize quite a few players I've played with every now and then in Helldivers 1 in the clips you used. :D
bro fr I loved the first game so much
Hey illuminates, have a cup of Liber-Tea!
Get the flamethrower cuz i want to have a FISHFRY!
I appreciate the Tripod enemy literally being a War of the Worlds sendup. It even has the foghorn? Heck yeah.
The prototype armor sets are really good for the illuminate because they have a 95 block to shock
who are the skin walker helldivers in the game right now? theres been a couple times a buddy will run by me and i check the map and theyre all the way across the map. but there will be a random hell diver right in front of me with their number above the head. same thing happened twice in one game, my buddy said why are you next to me i thought you were closing fabricators. i was. but someone with my name and gear was standing right next to him
That sounds rather spooky
Oh fuck...
Illusionist
It's just a bug where the game somehow puts 2 players on the same color. Happened to me a couple times now.
@D3adCl0wn what do you mean? Cause what we saw was all 4 players accounted for plus an extra. For example when I saw my friend next to me, it had his gear and his name above his head. All players were accounted for in other locations. Later that game he saw me walk up and start shooting next to him with same gear and my name. But all players are accounted for in different location. I wasn't sure how to record it but we just assumed joel or another dev messing around in the game but they didn't really do much besides confuse everyone
I rather play Anthem than this after what SONY did !!
I'm not sure if they'll do it since it would take so much work to do both but it'd be very interesting if they introduced the Illuminate in conjunction with adding urban city maps to play on.
Narratively it could work very well as like a Fall of Reach situation where the Illuminate launch multiple surprise attacks deep in Super Earth territory.
I have lost all my limbs and had them replaced with cybernetics that just pop off every time I am seriously hurt by the enemy to make them think Im done.
you know i think we may be the bad guys
Very funny. Now would you kindly face that wall. Democracy officer wants to speak to you.
Ha ha, Hanz you're so silly
Reported to your democracy officer
Think what you want while the Illuminate are melting your mind in the name of their death god.
Not today, clank propagandist. Your treasonous statements have been reported
Helldivers 2 feels like a prequel, in HD1 the helldivers had so much more at their disposal, support weapons where just primaries, cooldowns were shorter, reinforcements were plentiful if there was someone to throw them.
we're still at the start of the war, so the industrial gearing is probably not there yet
To be fair in Helldivers 1 the humankind is in a cycle of near extinction and rebuild so it make sense some progresses were reset
Helldivers 2 is barely a month old. The content we have now is good, so it gives us something to look forward to in the future. I didn’t play the first game, but I am sure it is a weird feeling to be missing so much (for now).
2 is definitely a sequel. The Automotons are the descendants of the Cyborgs and the reason we have more electric based gear is because we learned it from the Illuminates in HD1.
As for cooldowns being longer and weapons now being relegated to support weapons, that's the cost of a prolonged war. We have been stretched to our limits and supplies are running thin. We can't just give every Helldiver an LMG anymore, there aren't enough of them
@@alexanderrobins7497 HD1 literally had warthog-like vehicles, motorcyles, way more weapons, etc. The major different is that in HD2 everything is free if you're willing to put in the work for it. In HD1 ALL the extra things, even mechs, were locked behind paid DLC.
Great content man!!
oooo awesome video, great editing :))))
Why limit your imagination to just one predetermination?
Embrace the Illuminate, and join a higher plane of existence.

Makes sense with both fronts seeing significant wins
Bro I’m like pumped 🎉
Last night I had a dream in which I was fighting bugs in a snow planet and then an illuminate small guy appears out of nowhere and kills me.
Okay?
@@A-Vo5 there is no problem with dreaming about helldivers
I’ve fought on Omicron, Troost, Ubena, Hellmire and the Creek. The only thing I fear is a universe without Managed Democracy.
We been ready, cadet. GET BACK IN LINE!
Actually when we completed the previous major order, the game updated saying that the automatons were broadcasting to something Or someone outside the Galactic frontier theres only one group that could be they are already setting the groundwork for the illuminated return
We are so ready!
The fact that the devs are releasing new weapons, enemy types and a new faction soon all before the game’s first year makes the Helldivers experience so much more satisfying!
It's interesting to see the Illuminate's tech has changed since the first game, where they looked kind of like the standard 'Apple' sci-fi faction, being sleek, white and rounded, wheras now they seem to have started to use HR Geiger-esque biomechanical tech
Now we need to think of nickname for them
The train missions from HD were fun, would love to see them again.
The tripod is gonna make me cry
It looks exactly like the tripods from War of the Worlds
As well, the tripods from WotW have a fog horn
I had a great fear of tripods when I was younger
Well if you look at the galaxy map the left and right have been the only fronts we have been fighting but there is still the north and south that are open to suprise attack from one or two new enemy types
The fact that in a span of 2 month we got multiple new Stratagems basically free content available for everyone AND NOW pretty much all but confirmed with the recent major order criptic msg a new faction, its just insane, this devs are GOATED
Given that the current objective in Helldivers is to essentially “finish off” the Automatans in a massive offensive campaign. It wouldn’t surprise me if this new faction emerges in the wake of a victory over the machines.
Trading one enemy only for another to take their place.
Ive seen a blue lazer take out a rocket devastator about 40 meters away
I don’t know if I missed it in your video but yesterday, the Helldivers Alert X account advertised the EX-03 Prototype 3 armor which adds 95% resistance to arch damage, which is what Illuminate would be using I assume. Adding: “trust us: you’ll want the extra insulation.”
It would be cool if those "watcher" things would look and see which strategems your team has and addapt to it with pre programmed behaviours, like if they know you have the eagle airstirke they would deploy units farther apart to avoid the airstrike
my guess is that the elder will be a main or side objective where idle enemys are praying to a hologram
I hope when the galactic map gets more controlled by enemies, that when overlaps occur you will see both bots and bugs attacking one another since they are not allies. I also really hope that when super earth is under attack its biome actually looks mad populated and not like these planets we've been playing on. It's something I'm not sure if many helldivers are talking about but there aren't like maps with roads or cities being attacked.
That illuminide walker looks just like a tripod from War of the World's! So awesome 😲
Maybe we got the amour against electric damage because the illuminate might be near.
The automotons are the tripod that has a horn that blasts in battle is literally the war of the worlds tripod lol
That would be cool if we could see other people fighting this thing next to your circle
I think it would be really cool if one of the illusionist unit can cast a debuff on a player by making your teammates look like one of the enemies attacking them which can cause the player to friendly fire on purpose, considering the pressure of the amount enemies coming at you there's no telling which one is your teammate unless you communicate.
I swear, I got a daily challenge that was "Kill 20 Striders" just yesterday, I didn't even know what that was
They've set up a very large 2D galactic map. Yes, we have two fronts with most of the SW to SE and NW to NE still empty.
And nothing says we can't be attacked from above or below in a spherical map we can't see.
I think we'll see enemies entirely new to HD2 and expect Joel and Arrowhead have _years_ of content planned or outlined.
the classic Overwatch instrumental theme at the start 🤧 what a great choice (man i miss the old days)
With the armor in the EX armor being resistant to arc damage I think it's safe to say these are making a return.
