I did not see one at all until we defeated the automatons, The night before the update that confirmed operation Swift Assembly's success I had an operation open that I did not finish. The next day i was able to play against automatons despite them technically not existing anymore due to me having to finish a mission. I played and fought one instantly when i landed along with too many enemies to count.SO trust me they exist, They are severely overpowered and spawn devastators from their underside, and yes their difficulty increased ever since the automatons came back, You DONT WANT TO FIND ONE.
I had 2 earlier today on back to back missions. While I can't promise their spawns, I have noticed 3 things on my own missions. 1. I have only gotten them Helldive difficulty 2. Only in full lobby squads 3. On planets that have lot of smooth terrain like snow or desert planets. Naturally this is all anecdotal evidence but I hope these help.
Yeah i forgot they added those, iv be doing helldive difficulty alot lately, but i havent seen a single factory strider to the point i forgot they existed
Seen one on my first go on Helldive difficulty. It took us like 5-7 minutes to kill because it was the day after they came out and no one knew what to do. Haven't seen one since..
I dont think they are on the automaton border planets, wel likely find them again when we get to the inner planets like cyberstan. They probably cant transport them via space ships so they need to construct them on the planet and that takes a long time
I fought two, on the other bot front, where we beat them all. Haven't seen a single one on these new battlefields. Maybe they aren't part of the Reclamation fleet so...idk maybe you're SOL for now
Striders spwan only roaming patrol's so if you get into drop ships firefights alot then they are not going to spawn, i have found 8 striders and only fought 6 of them 5 with the homies we are like spec ops and the one group of rando was just dumb luck, but what i could remember what was common wend a strider was around we were to effective in killing patrol's and picking what patrol to fight to end quickly
I never got to fight them when they were out. I really tried but I never found them. I wanted to fight them SOOOO bad. I played probably 30 missions a exclusively playing 9’s before we wiped out the bots and I never saw them.
I had only seen the lights the factory strider produced. I couldn’t get closer due to me waiting to be reinforced. Then when I got reinforced I completed the mission 30 seconds before the pelican had left then I died trying to see the factory strider with no luck. 😢😢
pretty sure they removed them since last time we fought them, i saw on a stream that they were a bit buggy, like the value of damages they took was all over the place
I do a whole lotta yappin
I feel your pain. I found one in two freaking weeks. 7-9 difficulties. Mostly 9.
Tbh, this is entertaining for my ADHD brain, said it before I'll say it again. This is crackhead energy vibes and I'm all for it
This has gotta be the most underated helldivers video ever. also i havent seen a single strider either.
Yeah, the Striders spawning needs to be upped
wel the scout strider can be found so much but I never found a factory strider,
They don’t appear a crazy amount but when they do appear along with a shit ton of bots at 9 they can be a bitch to fight
0:14 bruh that triggered my Star Citizen senses, I instinctively started spamming H on my keyboard for a moment.
I think they have it at like 0.1% with the new invasion force, they were much more common during the battle of Tibit and Durgen.
Duuuuude I noticed the same!! I have not seen a single Factory Strider, not in streams, videos, or my own games.
they disappeared after tibbit
Local man's down bad for a challenge 🥊🥊
It is now the bile titan of the automatons and appears as a "kill factory striders" mission for the heavy target elimination.
They definitely need to make them more common, gunships aren't very exciting anymore
I've found like 2 of them and both were difficulty 9, one of them was even right at the start of the mission when we dropped in

This video gives crackhead vibes, also I appreciate we watch the same streamer PirateSoftware
Yeah i forgot they added those, iv be doing helldive difficulty alot lately, but i havent seen a single factory strider to the point i forgot they existed
Anyone else see the Spear Whiff and that Hulk just fall down out of respect?
I heard the striders were only near Tibit. The automatons are probably saving their resources or something and then they’ll build more.
Yep no strikers here either. ARROWHEAD WHERE IS OUR STRIDERDS!!!
Bro you hilarious, keep it up bro and them edits 😇😂
bro has had enough 😭
When we both sux together, we stick together.
Good advise. I'm going to steal that and tell to my batman pub to get their butt back to our team.
Hey guess what happened today.
Bro I played one game and there was a factory strider jus literally vibing on the other side of the map. Whole team collectively said NOPE lmaoooo
Saw 1 on my first dive into Tibit. It was destroyed before i could even blink.
Haven't seen one since
Yea, i only fought it once on 9-helldive. It was on Tibit.
Seen one on my first go on Helldive difficulty. It took us like 5-7 minutes to kill because it was the day after they came out and no one knew what to do. Haven't seen one since..
My cousins and I ran into ONE weeks ago. It took a whole bunch of damage to take down. Haven’t seen one since.
I dont think they are on the automaton border planets, wel likely find them again when we get to the inner planets like cyberstan. They probably cant transport them via space ships so they need to construct them on the planet and that takes a long time
Factory striders weren't as great as I thought they were, I dropped one eagle airstrike and then it went down... was a little disappointed
saw one on my first mission back after 2 weeks. lol, scared the hell out of me
I fought two, on the other bot front, where we beat them all. Haven't seen a single one on these new battlefields. Maybe they aren't part of the Reclamation fleet so...idk maybe you're SOL for now
Just do a high-value asset mission, they get dropped off by dropships because of course they do
Bro, punsiher on bots? You’re a madman.
Striders spwan only roaming patrol's so if you get into drop ships firefights alot then they are not going to spawn, i have found 8 striders and only fought 6 of them 5 with the homies we are like spec ops and the one group of rando was just dumb luck, but what i could remember what was common wend a strider was around we were to effective in killing patrol's and picking what patrol to fight to end quickly
Yeah, i haven't found one either, really annoyed
It should be logical that the automaton dropships should be able to shoot the helldivers after they dropped the bots.
Factory striders were never a thing. They never existed bud. You’re chasing ghosts
I never got to fight them when they were out. I really tried but I never found them. I wanted to fight them SOOOO bad. I played probably 30 missions a exclusively playing 9’s before we wiped out the bots and I never saw them.

Nah, still there, just very rare to find.
@@notsoanonymousmemes9455 they just announced they added them again so ur a freaking liar
I did 1 mission and had 4 striders dropped on me back to back lol
lucky
Only ever seen 2, one i ran from, the other we fought and it took two orbital lasers and a 500kg to take it down.
ngl after todays patch i saw 3 just today and 2 of them where reinforcements
By Sajuuk, this game ruined this man 😂
I've only run into one
I haven't found it either
Luck issue
I'm above 100 without a strider
didnt they disappear after tibbit ? i dont think they are in use in this offensive
i have found 20+ in 8 missions this is all your fault
I've only I found one once and that was looong ago
did a tons of 9 and still not a single one
Same
i found one and only one took a screen shot for proof
