  • Helldivers 2 has been absolutely amazing! The servers have been at capacity for a few days now, with the devs working on increasing the limit. While this happens, could there be a new threat lurking about in the star system? The Illuminate might be the next faction the Helldivers must defend Super Earth against!

      The Requisition NPC by the ship spawn point comments that "The 'Robot faction' (I forget their name) is soon going to go the same way as the illuminate" or something to this effect, and in that moment I knew this was the answer. I love ironic logic, where the NPC is definitely right, just not in the way they wanted.

They also attack Super Destroyers in space with thier Scrappers and board and fight on board adding a new dimension. They can be used as a random encounter/spanner in the works during missions.

    The Automatons share similarities to the cyborgs from the 1st game. If you talk to the guy by the Globe Map on your ship, he gives you a brief run down on the Automatons. He basically says they came out of no where, and they aren't sure where they came from. That we will learn more after we destroy their fabricators (Which all of us Hell Divers are doing right now in missions)
    You have to remember this game is set 100 years after the 1st game. So they could either be an army built by the Cyborgs, or they are what the cyborgs became after they gave up their biological bodies.

    Something about the automatons upgrading themselves over the course of the game is so cool to me. It makes sense for the bugs to stay at the same level, getting bigger or more dangerous as we get closer to their home planets, but the automatons are smart, they can think and strategize, so it makes sense that they would launch these attack campaigns as a front for their real goal, which is searching for potential weaponry or armaments. I was also hoping that on some of the territory borders, like the border between Bugs and (X Faction) could have conflicts in which these two factions fight for the planet themselves while we also fight to liberate them, with some actions increasing our own liberation stat, while also increasing one factions ownership over the other. Even Anti-SuperEarth groups cropping up on or near Super Earth, "terrorists" who are trying to change or stop Super Earths control over the galaxy would be cool, as we would be forced to take our focus away from these factions as we fight to protect Super Earth itself.

      That thing about enemy factions also competing with each other in the sector map is one of the most important things to me; nothing makes me lose interest in games like this faster than the developers adding all sorts of factions yet for some reason the players are the literal center of the universe and everyone everywhere ONLY wants to fight us.
      It instantly makes everything feel completely artificial, kills the atmosphere, and ruins the entire "the story develops based on the actions of all the players" idea that they've been praised for thus far.

    I could imagine them making the illuminate as a gorilla warfare type of enemy as their technology has been stripped from them.

    My idea comes from the lore of people on the ship talking about how termanids are evolved from testing and experimentation on the bugs since the first game. I don't know much about the robots but I theorize that it's due to cyborg people creating robots that rapidly multiply which will carry on the will of the cyborgs who are their creators

    Although the Illuminate are most def the next faction that's coming what I really wanna see is multi-faction plantes where they'll fight each other rather than waiting for the Helldivers to come along. Have it where it's a "contested" planet with mulitple percentages accredited to each faction that's fighting over its control and every operation will have ripple effects on the other faction's progress. Maybe if you ignore the bug holes while taking out many more automatons then the next few ops on that planet will have a much bigger bug presence than before.

    There could also be a madness effect where you start to hallucinate teammates running with you, dying if you get separated, going invisible during fights and looking like an enemy. Or maybe hallucinating enemies mid fight for you to waste ammo on, only for them to disappear when shot at

    holy fucking shit this video just gave me the coolest idea (mind you i havent finished the video so i have no idea if its mentioned later but i got an extremely cool idea for events in long term)
    the video proposes that automatons could be searching for the technology of the illuminate so they can fulfill their goal and exterminate humanity
    i think an awesome way to introduce the illuminate into HD2 would be over the course of 3 events, which are as follows
    Elite automatons have an EXTREMELY RARE chance of spawning in with an illuminate weapon/technology
    this could be used to further the lore in 1 of 2 ways
    automatons have found illuminate technology and have given it too the highest level elites.
    or
    the automatons established an agreement with the illuminate. the illuminate would supply a small amount of weapons/technology too the automatons in exchange for helping rebuild their military
    2nd event
    The automatons have stockpiled and organized a massive quantity of illuminate weaponry/technology and are using them to invade planets.
    this would signify that the illuminate are almost fully rebuilt and are doing the final checks of their equipment through automaton raids.
    3rd event
    Illuminate forces start appearing in small numbers alongside automaton forces, ranging from lowly soldiers to extremely dangerous elites in rare instances, the galaxy is about to experience all out war.
    this is just my idea and something i think would single handedly break the internet. i would dump so much time into this its insane.

    There needs to be a collaboration between Helldivers and Killzone. I can imagine seeing orange eyes in the distance of a dark field.
