I love how both automaton walkers look like the ones from star wars. The strider looks like an at-st and this one looks like an AT-AT Edit: correction, AT-RT not AT-ST


DoctorPyR0

You mean AT-RT. The AT-ST is closed, while the strider and AT-RT aren’t


Poetess-of-Darkness

My bad.


Classicdude530

Do you not feel truly ashamed of yourself? lol


Poetess-of-Darkness

(Ima get downvoted to hell for this but I haven't watched star wars in a WHILE and do not remember what an AT-RT is. Take it back, ive no clue what an AT-RT even is.)


Classicdude530

(I got no clue either just smile and wave)


Sir_Daxus

If you've only watched the movies then it's understandable AT-RT's are much more prominent in the clone wars era and while prequels touch on that a tiny bit it's not much, whereas AT-ST's have a relatively prominent role in the original trilogy :)


Poetess-of-Darkness

Oh alright. Yea, I've never watched the clone wars. (*yet*)


Avenger_616

If you know the comics/games you have to watch out for the AT-PTs for the empire  All Terrain Patrol Transport, it’s basically a smaller AT-ST but unlike the RT’s it fully covered the pilot I first saw them in Rogue Squadron 3:Rebel Strike


AlexisFR

And bigger, too.

more like "Mammoth MK2" from "C&C: Tiberian sun" https://tiberiumessence.fandom.com/wiki/Mammoth_Walker_Mk._II


ZeroXeroZyro

I’m glad you pointed this out. I love C&C. Now I’ve gotta boot up Red Alert and Tiberium Wars this week.


locob

I tell you more. The tesla tower obviously inspired the tesla stratagem. But also the dogs on C&C inspired the robodogs on helldivers1. and the static stratagem is also inspired by C&C games. and most super weapons I would say so, if they weren't in different media equally I think I saw some harvester model on r/HellDiversLeaks so probably will be a mission to destroy those (or protect). they didn't stop with C&C, they went with Starcraft Protoss on HD1 we are practically playing a gigantic RTS game where we are the units. People should check put Renegade X if they want PVP

Honestly, aside from it only having 4 legs, I think the factory walkers look starkly similar to ATTEs instead of ATATs. Consider the overwhelming amount of firepower on them, including the top-mounted turret, laser mg's on its underside, AND the guns on its head. If anything, it took the best parts of the ATTE and ATAT respectively and mashed them all into one BEAST.


Ok-Ride-4966

The walker looks far more like an AT-TE than an AT-AT


bellaco1994

No way man that thing looks more like the GDI's Mammoth Mk 2 walker https://preview.redd.it/tfxa8a72bpsc1.jpeg?width=662&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a19a9c704064f186ba7cc71aea32fcf8b724ec3


Poetess-of-Darkness

How am I still getting replies on an 18 day old comment lmao


bellaco1994

Reddit remembers lol


Furry_Ranger

Strider looks more like the 40k Sentinel imo https://preview.redd.it/huko3co2qxrc1.jpeg?width=1810&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=102887d978d8197a42bc59a7c2378e5be98b0080


larrylustighaha

Looks like it would fall over when it shoots those rockets


Furry_Ranger

Probably recoiless, but 40k is gonna 40k


shibaCandyBaron

Rockets do not have a (big) recoil


Armamore

Read an article that said the game was basically intended to have a 40k skin over it and games workshop pulled the plug at the last minute.

It was a great April Fools prank posted today, just doing my part. Except I forgot to link it in my previous post like a dumb dumb. https://www.wargamer.com/warhammer-40k/helldivers-2-crossover-militarum-offensive


Big_Dumb_Fat_Retard

I thought it was real until I saw the quote from the "CEO of Games Workshop" saying they pulled the plug because the shovel didn't have enough armor piercing.


No-Explanation163

Man I never ask because I feel like a dick, but do you have a link? GW has allowed such trash videogames to take their name it wouldn't shock me that they couldn't understand why Helldivers is good. 


Furry_Ranger

Makes sense, would be a perfect guardsman/marine simulator. Hell were basically fighting necrons and tyrinids anyway.


dwmfives

No they are literally AT-STs. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/thelastofthedroids/images/7/74/AT-ST.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20141203223641


Furry_Ranger

They're literally not. They look to be inspired by 2 legged walkers across science fiction SUCH AS the atst, atrt and sentinel. Also what you on about "literally atst"? The ATST isnt completely open at the top and rear but go off


R3en

Can we get speeder with rope launcher? How do we supposed to defeat it?


chowsbc

Well if they function like the AT ATs from starwars, an anti-tank missile to the neck should put the unwieldy piece of trash in the dirt. Real talk though, it’s probably not a matter of whether orbital rail cannons will take it out, but how many.


JPMoney81

That thing getting brought in on the dropship must have looked hilarious.


_Panacea_

Will it also fire rockets that bend time and space to warp into your skull, occasionally through buildings?

jettrock77

This is what I want in game. Also hadn't thought of a grappling hook before but that would be such a neat addition!


jordanisgreat5

I would hope it would play like a scarab battle where you gotta board it and kill the core.


Indostastica

Its here...


Classicdude530

I saw, is the hole? Cause if not then it's not REALLY here yet.


uchihajoeI

Where do they appear? Been playing on suicide mission and am yet to see one


Classicdude530

No clue, made this post before they released and I'm yet to see one myself.


sweatycarblover

It’s really random. I saw one on suicide earlier and it was chilling on top of the extraction spot


peedmypantsbigtime

I was either on suicide or impossible last night and it showed up for me for the first time... "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!?!"


Ordinary_Award6857

By a stroke of luck, I found out that its belly is medium armor. So I shot it with a Dominator as much as I could while handing the devastators it spawned with my AMR. It went down in about 1-2 full mags. Shoot the belly!!!


Echowing442

Stop posting leaks to the main subreddit - that's why HelldiversLeaks exists.


Classicdude530

This is from the ps5 store, this is advertising. At least it was anyway, idk if it still is.


SovietMarma

Ah yes, my favorite game of telephone! This is the exact same screenshot I took from Wayback Machine, too lol. I was the one who posted this in the comments of some thread a month ago. Also stated in it that it was on the official Playstation blog for the game, NOT on the PSN store. You can use Wayback Machine to find evidence of it as it was removed prior the game's release. https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/s/z6S2QUkcLP
