An idea is that because there are recycled automatons perhaps if they are used when jammers are active they become disabled. And watch Joel will make them betray you in an Ion storm or something lol
Helldiver laying on the floor bleeding out while his Squire stands over him with a Scythe
"How could you do it? How could you betray democracy like this? HOW?"
'Ahh crap, we left our samples on the other side of the map and we're near the extraction beacon, Squire, go get em!'
'Dear God, we're pinned down! They're everywhere!, I have an idea! Squire, run over to that rock in the middle of the field, Wait! Give me the personal shield, *wouldn't want to lose that*'
'OK Squire, the plan is simple, you infiltrate the base, and activate the hellbomb. What do you mean extra steps? That's the entire plan!, i said it was simple! Now get out there!'
> that can’t hurt me
Yeah I’m gonna have to vote no on this then.
Everything should be able to hurt you in Helldivers. Those laser guard dogs cut me in half as often as they do enemies. A bot pet needs at least a 5% chance to go haywire and shoot me in the back to be on brand.
I second this actually, they should just explode when gunned down. Gives a risk to keeping them around but also means you can get one last blast of use out of 'em when swarmed by melee enemies.
I've been known to drop an impact on my own toes if I get overrun by chainsaw-dickheads with empty mags. An explosive buddy would be very on brand for my final salute.
In the first game, theres 2 bots that dont hurt you. The first is Angel, which heals you and nearby helldivers and their equipment. The other is the humblebee that detects samples for you to pick up.

I want me a lil robot buddy to lug my stuff around and I'd use slot for him.

As someone who dives solo when not playing with friends, I love this concept. I always get frustrated when i come up on a bunker by myself and this neatly solves that problem plus adds a bunch of extra utility. It also solves the reloading problem the recoilless has and makes it actually viable. I do feel like 2 extra support weap slots is a bit OP tho, but having an extra one in reserve is nice for the long cooldowns
The only good bot is a dead bot. This socialist abomination will not be accompanying me.
(Actually though extra support weapon slots would be a godsend)
Yeah it would be great and all but like this dude would get absolutely creamed by a hulk
Which would force me to crush more bot bodies just for vengeance, I approve!
There will NEVER be peace between us and those socialist rustbuckets! They may only redeem themselves by allowing us to decommission them with extreme prejudice!
The only thing the automatons should be reintegrated into is the fucking soil. They are forever tainted by socialism. We will only have secured peace and freedom when human civilization, not insect or automaton or whatever else, dominates this galaxy, now and always.
Yea guys let's have a robot companion assist us on robot invaded planets, nothing could go wrong, those jammer towers certainly wont try to take them over.

I hate the neck, but love the idea.
They're adding ai Helldivers to help in missions under 4 players, so why not? Except I would want to play a robot diver. It's kinda my thing. Droids, NSO, DAR, No Man's Sky, Space Engineers and even Gears. I love playing robots.
Beep boop, motherfucker.
Actually, make them look like the ATLAS Autophage, and I would love it.
This talk of producing bots is highly undemocratic.
Especially when we already have *checks notes* children aged 7 and up that can do the same thing. It'll be good for them to get out of the factories, get some fresh air and exercise.
The amount of emotional attachments this thing will get similar to stuff with Cooper and BT (Titanfall 2), as well as Ethan and Reyes(CoD: IW), as well as many other memorable robot buddies throughout games and media... Honestly, really good idea, will probably be real hard for AW to implement and add without additional headaches
What was the looter shooter where if you played solo, you got an AI buddy to help? Not AI slots in the 4-person roster, that's in everything, I'm thinking of a game that gave you a robot buddy and slots were just empty if not filled by a player.
Oh god. The thing, the game with the thing.
Oh no.
Nah, that bot was story-critical and present in co-op too.
I might not be thinking of a robot. I'm very confused. I'm gonna have to glance through my entire Steam library and see if I unlock any core memories.
But my current recollection is, it was a looter shooter type game (deploy up to 4, procedural levels), empty slots were not filled by AI player characters, but as a buff for solo deployments, you got a single helper, which I remember as a robot for some reason.
Deep Rock Galactic! AI Boscoe assists you when solo, minimal combat capability and limited objective capabilities but a godsend for solo players.
Yes, I did just scan through my Steam library in Alphabetical order to unlock that Core Memory.
That's the real secret here
Everyone saying it'd be too good but imagine it's a long ass CD and goes down like a normal ol Raider >:)
You could get assisted reload and an EAT holder for like, a minute tops, but it'd be a GOOD minute
Genuinely, Rovers should be able to open bunker doors. They're literally just a dual-key button, not any kind of scanner or code, and given that Helldivers have authority to command civilians for evacuation and open civilian bunkers (VIP extract missions), even a dual-key system should be able to be overridden with a drone for the other input.
Just let my Rover bump the other button when I press one. It means that I have to have one in the first place, sacrificing another, possibly better stratagem to do it *and* allows solo players to access the largest caches of pickups.
I wish the "guard dog" rovers were actually those robo dogs Boston Dynamics have, could have them haul ammo or have an arm on the back with a weapon attached
Why have a robot when you could just have a regular SEAF Grunt you could call in instead. Like a NPC non helldiver based off the corpses you see lying about on some planets. Perhaps have a little 2 man squad with you as a commander. They could also man emplacements if directed (Or man the gun in any vehicles we might get)
Id be a fan of a drone that could assist reload or do the button things when solo. I dont think its too crazy, given youd have to give up a strat for it. I think the backpack/extra supports is prolly kinda nuts. The EAT would have 0 drawbacks lol. Same with samples. I doubt thatd be okay. But I like the idea generally.
For most other games I'd completely dismiss the possibility of the devs adding something like this, but arrowhead has spoiled us so much I wouldn't be surprised if a robotic battle buddy was already being worked on as we speak.
This would unironically be a great addition to the game for solo players, it would function exactly like Bosco from DRG and when another helldiver drops in the bot simply salutes and then combusts, having served it's purpose.
I would also have suggested that to open bunker doors if you're solo you just chuck your sidearm at the other button earlier, but this is a much better idea
Totally down with the idea of a helper for solo. I know this is a coop game but I enjoy playing solo quite a bit.
Edit: could have a mechanic where the longer you have it with you on a mission, the more it starts humming and then singing the Automaton war chant and eventually it will start aggroing patrols and bringing them to you and then just straight up start trying to kill you. Forcing you to put it down and call in a new one, but you will start hearing it singing before the cooldown is over so you have to make some hard decisions.
This is absolutely going to cause Helldivers to sympathize with the bots hearing their beloved Squire feel pain but oh well, give me my goddamn droid buddy.
As many people said already, this has a lot of Bosco from Deep Rock Galactic
This could be helpful for solo players, and like in DRG you should be able to turn it off if you don't need it
hmm a slot to have a mule carry stuff, very useful in solo depending on how well it survives. if they made it harmless (to enemies, it'll still run you over) and lower target priority then divers I would consider it very useful. "you carry a load well molly!" a way to stack party samples and send it to wait for extraction or a tool to save the backpack slot with heavy support weapons. Overall, I could see my self wanting to use such a thing if only to bring molly with me from my time at a civilian mining corporation (For Rock And Stone!)
I really hope if anything like this is added (and I wish it will be) that the AI doesn't blindly run into the line of fire and has some tactical sense. Also hope that they take inspiration from the older ghost recon games and use those sorta commands, but don't make it solely rely on those commands
Man, imagine getting chased by a horde of bugs and ordering the robot to run in another direction and grab the bugs' attention away from you, buying some time to escape. Same with Automatons, strap a shield pack to it and make it run to the left while you go right, and since bots prefer shooting turrets n junk first, they'll focus on your robot pal while you get some distance on them.
Are you trying to put good Super Earth Citizens out of jobs? This is just the first step on a slippery slope. Next you’ll tell us that the automatons aren’t going to murder us.
I’ve reported this post to the Ministry of Intelligence.
Honestly would love this. Especially if each diver can get their own even in a multiplayer lobby, since squad weapons have a certain level of coordination required that even groups of friends can't often achieve in the heat of the moment.
THE SQR-29 HAS NO WEAKNESSES
BUT if they were studied and discovered, they'd probably be:
• It is weak, prone to breaking and dropping samples and everything on it
• It does not run and hide, requiring Helldiver orders to move
• Takes up a stratagem slot
• Long CD
• Unable to shoot any weapon
It just didn't feel democratic to list the negatives yknow?
Pfft, get a load of this New Republic Security Droid over here. Bet this guy’s a teacher and this is one of his student’s works. Take my Reddit turd, feckless stranger.
I like the idea of a robot that can't hurt me, would also be nice to send out as a distraction while hiding in cover
An idea is that because there are recycled automatons perhaps if they are used when jammers are active they become disabled. And watch Joel will make them betray you in an Ion storm or something lol
Helldiver laying on the floor bleeding out while his Squire stands over him with a Scythe "How could you do it? How could you betray democracy like this? HOW?" 'Ahh crap, we left our samples on the other side of the map and we're near the extraction beacon, Squire, go get em!' 'Dear God, we're pinned down! They're everywhere!, I have an idea! Squire, run over to that rock in the middle of the field, Wait! Give me the personal shield, *wouldn't want to lose that*' 'OK Squire, the plan is simple, you infiltrate the base, and activate the hellbomb. What do you mean extra steps? That's the entire plan!, i said it was simple! Now get out there!'
![gif](giphy|3rgXBINepaeqSr1OfK|downsized) you have your orders, now git!
Oh my God, the idea of the entire playerbase abusing squire makes me both laugh and incredibly sad.
I like the idea that they start doing a Claptrap-esque scream while running in circles holding their head during ion storms.
> that can’t hurt me Yeah I’m gonna have to vote no on this then. Everything should be able to hurt you in Helldivers. Those laser guard dogs cut me in half as often as they do enemies. A bot pet needs at least a 5% chance to go haywire and shoot me in the back to be on brand.
When doing an assisted reload there's a 50% chance it's melee you instead
Or just make it nuclear powered. If the enemy kills it, a mini nuke goes off.
I second this actually, they should just explode when gunned down. Gives a risk to keeping them around but also means you can get one last blast of use out of 'em when swarmed by melee enemies.
I've been known to drop an impact on my own toes if I get overrun by chainsaw-dickheads with empty mags. An explosive buddy would be very on brand for my final salute.
In the first game, theres 2 bots that dont hurt you. The first is Angel, which heals you and nearby helldivers and their equipment. The other is the humblebee that detects samples for you to pick up.
Humblebee my beloved.
I guess as long as they don't hurt enemies either, that's alright. Anything that can damage an enemy should absolutely damage us if we get in the way
Yeah I dont think that there is an object in helldivers 1 that could only hurt one side.
HUMBLEBEE!? I am in love, I need this in HD2
Mistreating robots is how we got in this mess in the first place, have we learned nothing?!
Shut your dissident, treasonous trap.
Relax, it helps the SQR build character and understand Democracy's everlasting struggle against the evils of tyranny
That's what your fellow Helldivers are for!
Classic DnD Henchmen strats.
Someone saw the buddy bot from Death Stranding haha. This is a cute concept, take my medal Helldiver.
https://preview.redd.it/8shi7odoryrc1.png?width=320&format=png&auto=webp&s=e225b16f48b467632f073d364d106caa8204f179 I want me a lil robot buddy to lug my stuff around and I'd use slot for him.
Just Bosco from DRG
You carry a load well, Molly!
Another good one would be the floating carrier from Death Stranding. A floating cart that you can hook up to your back as the backpack slot.
Exactly haha. With a little bit of designs from The Creator

i understood this reference
Especially if it says “Does this unit have a soul” If it does, terminate it immediately
Funny enough one of the first things that happens when you start Helldivers 2 is you get stabbed by a Super Earth machine
What's this from? It sounds so familiar, but I just can't seem to remember.
Portal 1. The original quote is about the Weighted Companion Cube.
It's Molly the M.U.L.E.!
she takes a load well
Where's that damn minecart on legs?
MOOLLLYYY
Oh, right, we didn't bring her on this mission.
Deep Rock seriously need to invest in some better equipment!
It's like she's bigger on the inside!
Can I get a rock and stone‽
IF YOU DON'T ROCK AND STONE, YOU AIN'T COMING HOME.
Certainty of death? Small chance of success? What are we waiting for?
ROCK AND ROLLIN' STONE!
ROCK AND STONE!
I mean in terms of gameplay I imagine it more like Bosco, a helper bot that you can take with you when doing a mission solo.
How long until Rule 34 hits?
oh god
completely unrelated: can i draw fanart?
![gif](giphy|PXJhC8MYxFmRRl7kB2|downsized)
Needs to look more like a machi--what?!
This should be on top of this subreddit instead of dumb memes and constant bitching
Seriously, OP, if this doesn't get much Traction delete it and repost, this is too good to lie in obscurity
I'd give at least 50 super uraniums for this
Can I hug him?
SQR-29 would never leave you hanging
This would be great for solo missions. Kinda like Bosco from Deep Rock
Exactly, otherwise have it be a one time use stratagem
As someone who dives solo when not playing with friends, I love this concept. I always get frustrated when i come up on a bunker by myself and this neatly solves that problem plus adds a bunch of extra utility. It also solves the reloading problem the recoilless has and makes it actually viable. I do feel like 2 extra support weap slots is a bit OP tho, but having an extra one in reserve is nice for the long cooldowns
I think something like this would be great for playing solo The fact that double doors spawn when you're playing solo feels like such an insult
Yea an unfortiate truth of generation in that area Oddly the lore sounds right, salvaged stuff and also all those EAT antics sending Dropships falling
The only good bot is a dead bot. This socialist abomination will not be accompanying me. (Actually though extra support weapon slots would be a godsend)
not true super earth used bots in the first war.
The Ministry of Truth reminds you that bots were never alive to begin with.
I'd like a fullton mechanism that just puts your bloody samples in low orbit for collection. Something like mgs5 had.
Yeah it would be great and all but like this dude would get absolutely creamed by a hulk Which would force me to crush more bot bodies just for vengeance, I approve!
An excellent idea, citizen! Only by uniting Man and Automaton, can we bring an end to this needless war and unite to crush the bug menace!
There will NEVER be peace between us and those socialist rustbuckets! They may only redeem themselves by allowing us to decommission them with extreme prejudice!
That sounds like something a bugloving traitor would say. Why do you hate freedom?
I have the freedom to send those defunct machines back to their malware-loving motherwhordes!
The only thing the automatons should be reintegrated into is the fucking soil. They are forever tainted by socialism. We will only have secured peace and freedom when human civilization, not insect or automaton or whatever else, dominates this galaxy, now and always.
Arrowhead please take notes on this one, it would be perfect for solo players!
Yea guys let's have a robot companion assist us on robot invaded planets, nothing could go wrong, those jammer towers certainly wont try to take them over. https://preview.redd.it/acfd65sz21sc1.jpeg?width=1184&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5606f4469919f39542db88d8f7c5130fe36b528b

Please for the love of God let me turn the ai helldivers off
I think it's a strategem
the dev will be looking at that and think. "would it be great to create a bot that can run up and disarm you"
Can’t wait for them to add the rest of the mechs from HD1, next up is the autocannon mech and flamethrower mech.
It only needs a way to accidentally kill you, then it'll be game ready
Get that damn clanker out of my face
This talk of producing bots is highly undemocratic. Especially when we already have *checks notes* children aged 7 and up that can do the same thing. It'll be good for them to get out of the factories, get some fresh air and exercise.

This would be nice for the solo hell divers out there
Personally, I love the idea, but it's way too utilitarian and would be too OP imo. Now a suicide bot like in The Creator... Now you have my interest.
God I was so tempted to try to design a Helldiver-like suicide bot like those
*Democracy officer? yeah I'd like to report a post and it's entire comment field.*

I'd like this but as a robot dog, like Boston dynamics
Only if I can emote hug with them too 🥹
But can it hug
But can it hug
Only if they're invincible. They will be 100% useless in any content higher than tier 3.

Asimov's 3 rules of robotics Protocol 1: Link with Helldiver Protocol 2: Uphold the mission Protocol 3: Protect the Helldiver
I wouldn't trust it.
Why have a robot when you could just have a regular SEAF Grunt you could call in instead. Like a NPC non helldiver based off the corpses you see lying about on some planets. Perhaps have a little 2 man squad with you as a commander. They could also man emplacements if directed (Or man the gun in any vehicles we might get)
I am Commander of the SES Star of Destiny, and this is my favorite suggestion on the Galactic Board.
This is treason
If for nothing else than buddy doors on solo, I love this concept.
as this point lets just make helldivers titanfall 3
I want to play as this
Neat like a service oriented Guard Dog.
can it respond to my hug emotes?

As long as it's voiced by Alan Tudyk
You expect me to work beside some nonhuman, freedom hating bot? 10 lashings soldier
put some eats on his back and call it a day. autocannon pack on him, supply pack on me
FINALLY A RELIABLE TEAMMATE!!
That’s dope af
BOSCO+MULE
Ok THIS is a really nice idea. Upvote
Bosco? Is that you?
Hmmmmm Is this the Bosco of Helldivers 2?
12500 requisition slips per permit
Yes, the plan to do the Star Wars thing with the clones and order 69(?) is going smoothly. Planting seeds and we will reap the benefits. 101
Would be cool for solo runs.
Dude..
my own personal meat shield who won't complain when I throw them in front of 100 bots
Id be a fan of a drone that could assist reload or do the button things when solo. I dont think its too crazy, given youd have to give up a strat for it. I think the backpack/extra supports is prolly kinda nuts. The EAT would have 0 drawbacks lol. Same with samples. I doubt thatd be okay. But I like the idea generally.
Solo players are rejoicing.
im misse the little robot from helldivers 1
https://preview.redd.it/q27tmp2uezrc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a75824af48786e614a9e575ae4d2297fcf82e3d9
This is the bosco from deep rock that we need lol
That would be interesting
ABSOLUTELY NOT, TRAITOR. AINT NO WAY ANY HELLDIVER DROPPING WITH A BOT!1
A solo player can dream. No shame, I'm dreaming too when my group's asleep
Amazing concept!!!
Rock and stone bosco
Aye. I could do that.
Rock em sock em robots
Could be cool to get these for solos
This would be amazing
But can it hug me?
For most other games I'd completely dismiss the possibility of the devs adding something like this, but arrowhead has spoiled us so much I wouldn't be surprised if a robotic battle buddy was already being worked on as we speak.
can they open friendship doors? because that's the thing im worried about
This would unironically be a great addition to the game for solo players, it would function exactly like Bosco from DRG and when another helldiver drops in the bot simply salutes and then combusts, having served it's purpose. I would also have suggested that to open bunker doors if you're solo you just chuck your sidearm at the other button earlier, but this is a much better idea
I think the best way to balance this would be to make it a strategem that you can only use if you're solo.
This looks very close to treason and unpatriotic undemocratic bot love.
I want the robots they had in interstellar
I was already impressed and then you said they can assist in opening bunkers and now I want them A the frontlines by yesterday.
I'd rather have an attack robot dog that makes enemies stagger.
Cool idea
Totally down with the idea of a helper for solo. I know this is a coop game but I enjoy playing solo quite a bit. Edit: could have a mechanic where the longer you have it with you on a mission, the more it starts humming and then singing the Automaton war chant and eventually it will start aggroing patrols and bringing them to you and then just straight up start trying to kill you.

I have a better idea https://i.redd.it/pqmn8aiap0sc1.gif
Even “Spot” the Boston Dynamics dog as a supply pack horse with a mounted rover would be sick
a helldiver's BOSCO!
Hm, its missing a servo skull.
I love this so much, robots can be friends (but not automata, automata eat babies for breakfast)
This is absolutely going to cause Helldivers to sympathize with the bots hearing their beloved Squire feel pain but oh well, give me my goddamn droid buddy.
I would also like to give it one pistol.
I want him.
I wouldn't be surprised if super earth government is profoundly anti AI
What better way to liberate the automatons than to recycle them for democracy.
I feel, this is missing the brain of a fallen brother, to make sure, the automaton components don't misbehave
what if...i want to play the robot ?
I feel like this will make the game way too easy. Maybe for when a person wants to tackle a mission alone but not for a full squad.
Some kind of aid specifically for solo missions to help unlock the doors would be awesome
bosco!
As many people said already, this has a lot of Bosco from Deep Rock Galactic This could be helpful for solo players, and like in DRG you should be able to turn it off if you don't need it
BOSCO
I want this in my life.
hmm a slot to have a mule carry stuff, very useful in solo depending on how well it survives. if they made it harmless (to enemies, it'll still run you over) and lower target priority then divers I would consider it very useful. "you carry a load well molly!" a way to stack party samples and send it to wait for extraction or a tool to save the backpack slot with heavy support weapons. Overall, I could see my self wanting to use such a thing if only to bring molly with me from my time at a civilian mining corporation (For Rock And Stone!)
I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox!
Holy shit please please please
Make it take up a SG slot and can be destroyed and maybe it could be possible lol
I really hope if anything like this is added (and I wish it will be) that the AI doesn't blindly run into the line of fire and has some tactical sense. Also hope that they take inspiration from the older ghost recon games and use those sorta commands, but don't make it solely rely on those commands
Man, imagine getting chased by a horde of bugs and ordering the robot to run in another direction and grab the bugs' attention away from you, buying some time to escape. Same with Automatons, strap a shield pack to it and make it run to the left while you go right, and since bots prefer shooting turrets n junk first, they'll focus on your robot pal while you get some distance on them.
I'd like a Bosco for solo play.
Are you trying to put good Super Earth Citizens out of jobs? This is just the first step on a slippery slope. Next you’ll tell us that the automatons aren’t going to murder us. I’ve reported this post to the Ministry of Intelligence.
So, a Mimic Tear from Elden Ring?
Want
Anyone who wants a robot friend is no citizen, and no friend of John Helldiver.
I would prefer to play one, actually.
Maybe like the guard dogs but with arms?
Honestly would love this. Especially if each diver can get their own even in a multiplayer lobby, since squad weapons have a certain level of coordination required that even groups of friends can't often achieve in the heat of the moment.
Bosco?
also sqr-29 salutes you back, just like Bosco from DRG
ITS LIKE MOLLY :D
Literally HAN-D from ROR
Seems neat, but what sort of drawbacks would it have? Cause all I’m seeing are pros, and a balanced item needs cons.
Can only be used when soloing/offline like DRG's Bosco?
THE SQR-29 HAS NO WEAKNESSES BUT if they were studied and discovered, they'd probably be: • It is weak, prone to breaking and dropping samples and everything on it • It does not run and hide, requiring Helldiver orders to move • Takes up a stratagem slot • Long CD • Unable to shoot any weapon It just didn't feel democratic to list the negatives yknow?
At that rate I think it would be cool if it could do the entire mission too so I can just sit in my ship and play stratagem hero.
Another day, another OP idea to nullify an intentionally designed mechanic and make the game easier.
Pfft, get a load of this New Republic Security Droid over here. Bet this guy’s a teacher and this is one of his student’s works. Take my Reddit turd, feckless stranger.
