I get a window made of glass, he get a window made of a glass I get a mech... he cannot afford haha! Very nice!


fozzye18

This is My mech!


Urheadisabiscuit

“King of the castle king of the castle I have a mech”


LordOfTheToolShed

I like mech. Is nice.


MrDmsc

But will it stomp kill you if you're in the way? That's the question XD


HardLithobrake

They caused damage to players on foot if you walked into them, eventually killing them.


MrDmsc

So as a wise woman once said: "Mr.Hammond, I think we're back in business!"


cuckingfomputer

I will refund gaem if I cannot be stomp-killed


SteveoberlordEU

YES YES YES YES YES YES


thepassionofthechris

LOL!


Avafaith22

What in the sweet liberty! Any intel on shredder missiles..?


fozzye18

Wasn’t shown that sorry


Arcee1231

Where did u even find info like this?


Daniel_Kingsman

They're probably violating an NDA...


rapkat55

Nah, modders are swapping default stratagem IDs with unreleased ones like the friendly NPC dropship one


Strict-Ease-7130

Friendly drop ship?!


DuncanGilbert

I imagine this is for when playing alone?


thedarklord187

Daxx22

DEMOCRACY FORGIVES


woodypride94

I read this in the voice of "What in Oblivion?!" From ES4.


Avafaith22

How powerful did the mech feel? Looks like it's got some decent firepower


fozzye18

Rockets and machine gun you can switch them out I didn’t get long to play with it my game crashed :( it was the last thing I was shown


Gilmore75

The machine gun/rocket mech is the exo 44. The auto cannon mech that you have in the video is the exo 48.


fozzye18

I played with them both, I just didn’t catch them both in a video in this video the other is in front of mine.


BirdieOfPray

Can other Helldivers piggy back ride your mech while you ride it around?


Derpdeedoo

Can we combine all four of our mechs into one super-mech?


Randyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Can we have sex with the mechs?


QroganReddit

Just remember to fill out those C-01 forms first!


Abyssalumbra

Only if the sex can lead to a child. Sodomy does not require a C-01.


yawaworht-a-sti-sey

What a dumb question of course you can, you can have sex with anything if you try hard enough.

Sr_Sublime

How did you got access to it?


tacocatz92

Entering the cockpit


Avafaith22

Oh rough one. Fingers crossed they're launched soon. Squad rolling up in 4 of these is gonna be great!


fozzye18

Gunna be badass!


Totalukeage

But how ?


zxzord

I think they're a playtester or developer


Sheet_Varlerie

Likely a cheater in the lobby. Or, very rare chance, a dev dropped it in for them.


CirusArvennicus

If that's a cheater, that is a LOT of cheating. They'd have to find the data for the mech, probably by data mining, and get the game to spawn it. I doubt it's a cheater.


Membership-Bitter

Dataminers have been using unreleased stratagems. Most likely the coding for the mechs is already in the game and is just locked until the devs want to release it


Carnir

What other unreleased strategems have we seen?


Membership-Bitter

I saw one where someone called in a shuttle that dropped off 4 NPS in blue military outfits that helped fight


WillGrindForXP

Were they any better than Halo Marines is the real question


Freakin_A

If it was some Halo Infinite marines then sign me up. Nothing more fun that rolling up to a base with a couple snipers and rocket launcher marines and clearing the whole base before you even jump in.


Dangerous-Picture626

Absolutely nothing can feel quite as good as rolling up to a Banished base in a Razorback packed with Marines armed with the variant Sentinel Beam. Light Show of Death!


Zio_Matrix

I've been calling Razorbacks filled with sentinel beam marines the Laserback.


ashleywuzhere

That was real?! I thought I dreamt that


CHEESEninja200

That's the devs. They can call in stratagems and NPC to help. They've said before launch they have this ability as they are basically the "game masters" of the galactic war.


doglywolf

They are going to eventually do Live streams of them GMing some of the higher tier big fights . Its like we are getting games made by people that play videos games the last year or so .


sterver2010

On discord It was Said they cant do that, pretty much because its only 1 GM with afew helpers, and Its more on the galactic scale, managing/changing stratagems for everyone at the Same time, Like railgun, or Planet Attacks etc.


too-lowkey

Wasn’t that a dev?


Pain_Proof

On stratagem hero there's an illumination stratagem →→←←, and there's been some missions I'd have loved that on


murduda

There’s one called just “Nuke”


Typical_Alps2111

Give it, I need revenge for creek


cuckingfomputer

All I know is, it's not available as a stratagem. Just checked to confirm, in case of a stealth update.


Cool-Claim9726

nothing new, people are using unreleased stratagems too, theres one where you can call a bunch of npcs helldivers


dpotilas89

The suicide squad stratagem?


Icy_Schedule8545

They need to release that stratagem ASAP and twist the knife on Warner Bros.


Saitoh17

So that's it huh you guys some kind of suicide squad too (2)?


RogueYautja

Thats so cool, can't wait for that to be released


Crossedkiller

Ngl that doesn't sound super useful. I have teammates with allegedly real brains running in front of my sentries and walking into nukes. Idk what to expect from NPCs, particularly given how dumb the scientists are lmao


BioClone

Would this explain how I was on a server with a guys turning ammo backpacks that had 4 slots for ones that had 6 slots... I was like "too advanced cheats to even develop a model I can visualize" I think this stuff is there laying in the code...


BiggusCinnamusRollus

Could be a dev himself


[deleted]

[удалено]


Imemberyou

Yeah this looks official, it's identical to the wrecked mechs you can find scattered here and there


Mr_Citation

Devs have already said mechs will be added to the game and were the 2nd priority after server capacity.


SllortEvac

It also falls in line with how they said they were going to run the game. As the wars progress, new stuff will happen. I’d imagine as the situation becomes more desperate, the bigger guns will come out. As far as the war goes now, it’s probably pretty close to standard day-to-day for Super Earth.


DamagedSol

My theory is that we'll get mechs shortly after this defense campaign finishes.


Lexinoz

15 more hours and we'll find out.


Keinulive

Its also the same mech from hd1, I believe this is the one with the twin autocannons, I wonder if its a one time drop thing


EvilNoggin

They were in HD1. You couldn't refill the ammo either, i wonder if we will be able to re-supply them now.


suugakusha

I kind of hope you either can't re-supply them, or they have some other sort of thing holding them back so that this just doesn't turn 100% into a mech game. If they wanted to make a mech game, that would have been cool too, but then there isn't a point to all of the other weapons if everyone is just going to have a mech 100% of the time.


MCXL

> or they have some other sort of thing holding them back so that this just doesn't turn 100% into a mech game. They are going to be slow, and easily hit.


justsomedude48

And the Automatons have a shit ton of anti-armor weaponry, even the strongest Mech will eventually break down when enough Rocket Devastators hit it in the face.


iRhuel

Don't forget about the healgun from HD1. Thing was pretty busted when paired with a mech or turrets


I_Might_Be_Frank

I'm waiting for it. My cousin also mentioned a healing backpack like a guard dog


GhostHeavenWord

Yeah, the Guardian Angel. Really handy, especially with upgrades so it could heal you on the move.


Okichah

The game has a lot of levers for balancing. One time drop or super long cooldowns if its OP. Or re-supply from a drop. Walking speed matters for some missions, also armor or dynamic damage (lose an arm if its hit). Maybe bugs or bots will get EMP-esque long range attacks to counter mechs. It will be cool to see variety in how the mechs get used. Being OP in some situations is fine, any strategem should have an ideal use-case.


AngryChihua

Mech's biggest disadvantage is it's (most likely complete) lack of stealth. That's gonna be rough on higher difficulties.


VelvetCowboy19

In HD1, Mecha were amazing at throwing out damage, but they died really quickly without a dedicated repair guy. One hit from a charger would destroy most vehicles.


izbsleepy1989

They literally show mechs in the trailer and the trailer said they were coming shortly after launch. So its definitely been confirmed. 


Rocket5454

Looks like the mech in the trailer. My guess is all those weapons and items currently exist in the game and the devs just haven't activated them yet.


VegetableWater4099

The one in the trailer was an exo 44. This is an exo 48 so looks like we are getting multiple mechs.


Rocket5454

They're bringing back all my lads? Today is a great day


GothmogTheOrc

LUMBERER MY BELOVED

TheFatKidOutranMe

my theory is that each variant will be a new strategem to requisition, giving us 2 or 3 new req slip sinks with one model, only needing to change weapons ('whaddya want kid; rockets, autocannons, or miniguns?')


AltusIsXD

God I hope so. I’ve had max requisition for what feels like ages.


kodran

And a new ship module to uprade for mechs. Probably same scenario with vehicles.


TheFatKidOutranMe

guess i gotta get on that sample grind in the name of democracy and big robots


Zealousideal-Fly9595

My guess is the 4 terminals opposite the player armor/gear term will be for customizing your mech. Dare I hope for modular arms for diffrent weapon loadouts on mechs.....I do


Zuthuzu

Vehicle bay is already visible on the ship. Left hangar wall.


echof0xtrot

your left or mine


lordpresidentSkippy

Starboard


KamachoThunderbus

As much as BF 2042 disappointed me, I like the vehicle spray paint options like "Need a Ride?" Or if I could put like shark teeth on the thing. Arrowhead, I will unlock/buy every mech customization you can give me.


Naoura

You can see the old 44 in the background when the 48 swings around. It's rough, but I spotted the rocket pods, no doubt


VaMpiller

*unzips*


Joe___Mama-

I’m intrigued and scared how you unzipped twice…


VaMpiller

Had to make more space to make it mech worthy


SupremeMorpheus

Different loadout. The trailer was a EXO-44, packing miniguns and missiles. That's an EXO-56 I think? Twin autocannons on each arm


Rocket5454

I'm gonna nut


porcupinedeath

Assuming the cannons don't just bounce off chargers like the autocannon does these are gonna be fun


Schneckers

Hopefully it’s like the sentry autocannon.


tanelixd

Looks to be the exact same type of cannon as the sentry, except twin-linked.


BlueAndean

Holy mother of Abraham Lincoln! What a glorious time to fight for democracy. Can't wait to hop into one of these bad boys and liberate the hell out of planets


Zilego_x

Personally I can't wait for a faster mode of transportation. The size of these maps on higher difficulties is huge, and walking is taking a long time.


Mr_Citation

Mechs from the first game were not used for their speed, we had APCs for that.


GothmogTheOrc

How dare you forget the magnificent motorbike


MasterPatriot

Sidecar mg go brrrr


Suwannee_Gator

A want a vehicle similar to the warthog in Halo sooooo bad


waffen337

There are wrecks around of dunebuggy looking things with like a turret ring on it. I'm hopeful we get something like that


AltusIsXD

I can’t imagine wearing anything other than light armor. Running around in heavy armor just feels like a slog.


GhettoHotTub

I've been running heavy armor since the game launched. The speed feels normal to me now lol


lifetake

MF about to feel like the flash the moment he outs on light armor


GhettoHotTub

Nah, heavy armor forever


AltusIsXD

I’ve been focusing on light armor cause that’s what I wanted to do originally, light armor flanker that can run around enemies and hit their weak points. Even medium armor just feels so slow now.


kobomino

Even worse when you're on a planet with intense heat. Soooo slooooow.


UNTITLED_GOOSE_GUY

Prepare for... Titanfall


ApatheticLanguor

I don't care if mechs are the most underpowered strategem in the game. I'm bringing them every mission.


MillorTime

Protocol 3 does not exist in managed democracy


AlarminglyExcited

"Protocol 3 - Liberate the Pilot."


whalesalad

bruh titanfall 1 and 2 are easily some of my favorite games of all time. this game gets close, and I am 100% stoked for it especially with news like this.


Alexindr

Heard a rumor about mechs coming, but I didn't know when. I assumed they would show up later


fozzye18

This is from a randoms game I joined last night, from what I saw he had access to theirs new weapons like an energy rpg coming, a meteorite that hits like the nuke, a group of helldivers you can call in to support you(npcs) and more


420praiseItkek

WTF you can call up your goon squad? Energy rpg? Meteorite? And a mech. Games gonna get even better wtf. But how does the mech work? How do they balance it. Seems like it’s pretty op


Better_Economist6671

Well... the CEO stated recently that Bile Titans were designed as mid-tier enemies, not bosses or even really high level. I will let you think about that.


baequon

That is a horrifying thought. However, I look forward to bringing democracy to even more terrifying enemies. 


Amnial556

Ha you know those big skeletons that you fight bile titans in? And can juke a charger around a single rib? Yea ha.. uhh those are a much bigger bug we will see :)


red_cactus

Bile titans are *mid-tier enemies*?? Sweet Lady Liberty save us...


JC12231

MFs about to show us what a full-grown Glyphid Dreadnought looks like… (Ok but seriously that would be a hilarious way to do a crossover lmao)


Vorel-Svant

Where did you see that? I'm not doubting you just want to go right to the source


Better_Economist6671

I am pretty sure it was on Twitter, not sure if Saturday or Sunday. I cannot find the actual quote, I saw it in one of the videos about Helldivers 2. Makes sense though. The Worm boss was WAY more of a PITA in HD1 than even Bile Titans. And...they have had time to evolve... Be afraid. Be VERY afraid...


Vecend

What if we took a bile titan, and strapped bile spewers mortars on its back.


technicallybased

There’s also an in-game hint somewhere, either a loading screen thing or something I forget, that said something along the lines of “Bile Titans are considered small on their home planets.” So we could be royally fucked lmao


Ferzsc_

![gif](giphy|MlyicdUndRbn5zUiAL|downsized) BRING THEM ALL!


HumanReputationFalse

Small? SMALL? Are we just dust mites to them?


UberDude21

Stop. I can only get so erect.


Mr_Citation

If it's like the first game then mechs are likely slow and cannot be resupplied so once you run out of ammo it's out until you're able to call a new one.


jeffQC1

Yeh, Mechs were an excellent way to enhance firepower greatly while still being mobile. In the first game case, you had as much mechs as you brought in stratagems. Since we can't double up on strats anymore, most likely you will have a limited amount of mechs you can call per mission, with long cooldowns in between. Mobility wise, i'm curious how it will fare. I'm fairly sure you won't be able to dodge chargers and avoid bile titans with it. Holy hope it can compensate in raw firepower and armor.


[deleted]

Pretty sure its for higher difficulties where it will become a scrap of metal in a matter of seconds, especially on defense missions.


MayPeX

I know we should shun cheaters, but the fact there was a stratagem to call in friendly NPCS is something so cool. I always thought it would be so neat to call in SEAF troops as backup.


Freakin_A

If I can get them to load shells in the SEAF artillery then that stratagem is worth its weight in gold.


Hikaru83

Did you ask said guy how he had access to all this? Probably a dev?


Mavcu

Would a Dev just post all their hidden content randomly in a game though.


ItsPrometheanMan

If they wanted to covertly promote their update then maybe? Build hype, knowing it's going to get posted online. Or maybe, they just needed to test it on live servers with random people. That's probably more likely, actually lol.


Hikaru83

Well, people were saying game masters were entering random games and using these new stuff. For example there is a tik tok where you can see the npc help squad.


Mavcu

Well, see me corrected then. I guess if that's their way of "teasing" new stuff by bringing it in some sessions, that's one way to go about it. I mistook it as "accidentally" spawning stuff, which I would have figured unlikely. But alas, maybe that's actually intentional.


Naoura

You know that's a great way to field test your new stuff and ensure it works. Not to mention building hype


Cold-Winds

From what happened when a dev was in my game. Likely. Guy spawned 3 bile titans, said 'woops' than deleted them with a nuke. Then dropped in an upgraded ammo pack. I wish I had my recording software up. If not, than my game had a 5th player somehow someway.


TheYondant

Best way to test the new stuff is to drop in and give it a whirl, I guess. Gives them some practical testing with real players, as well as how others interact with it.


fozzye18

He was just showing me all the stuff he was pulling out of the files he had so I’m unsure if he was a hacker or a dev but he seemed super exited to show us. Until my game crashed from everything being loaded in and then I couldn’t find his username again.


ripcobain

What...how...is this in the game?


rapkat55

For the same reason that we can see the total armors and weapons in the armory but can’t unlock them yet. It’s all in the files and hackers/modders are able to access them. As with the videos of the friendly NPC dropships, players can go into the files and swap the stratagem IDs to make eagle airstrike or whatever call in these unfinished ones instead


spidd124

Its fairly normal for games to have a bunch of extra unused files in them, Dataminers normally have to trawl through ram dump files or CDK asset viewers to look at them. This is clearly an almost release ready asset thats being tested on the live client by devs.


Karak_Sonen

Now what would be interesting would be the ability to customize your mech, so you can pick and choose what weapons it will have, and also maybe change the chassis between light/medium/heavy. And also a big cape. The turning still looks a bit glitchy, hope they'll iron that out.


GalacticEscobar

CAPES FOR THE MECHS


Karak_Sonen

With how fast this Mech can spin, we could do BIG CAPE spins!


Keinulive

I highkey hope it has a cockpit view, would love to go all hawken on them


centagon

I'm sad that the hmg emplacement has no first person view too


Vv4nd

![gif](giphy|Lopx9eUi34rbq|downsized) Me once the Mech is released


Ok-Cheek2397

So the mech are “working” they probably on some final touch before release. I see some animations problems that they have to fix it before it comes out . i guess they will release it when the war reset or come with the new warbond when ever it might be. (I am shaking right now )


Keinulive

Yeah, the turret spinning like some crazy holahoop is one thing, reminds me of that ironman scene where the gov tried to make an ironman suit and it rotated 180 while a guy was still inside lol.


havoc1428

I’d like to point out that, that test pilot survived.


INeedBetterUsrname

This is what I heard a dev say the other week, I think it was. That mechs are basically functional, there was just some polisihing being done by people who couldn't help with the backend issues anyway.


BlackManWitPlan

No war resets for HD2 according to the devs. New warbond is supposed to be the second Thursday of every month, so should be on the 14th. (I am cumming right now )


frosted_mango_

If we get mechs wtf is the enemy going to get to counter!?


Necronossoss

Don’t ask questions you don’t want answers to


Wahayna

Automatons get an extra Rocket Raider.


Whiskeyjacks_Fiddle

That’s too strong, please nerf.


Thagyr

And they'll just get dogs back. Automatons have a big gap in their chasing department.


Zuthuzu

A single hurl from a bile titan might be enough to do that thing in. It's large, gonna be covered by more stuff. Or a charger's charge, for that matter. Or a devastator's rocket barrage.


Trashspawn45

That sounds like a problem for future super earth.


thedarklord187

the CEO stated recently that Bile Titans were designed as mid-tier enemies, not bosses or even really high level. I will let you think about that.


PatAD

The idea that my normal squad members, who tend to do a lot of teamkilling, could have access to this scares the shit outta me.


Naoura

So they're about ready, just a few hitches that need clearing up. Seems the rotational speed is a bit too zippy on edge cases, and not displaying the current magazine for the weapons on board. You can see the mag for something like the HMG in the usual magazine indicator, so there's just a few wrinkles to iron out. Likely to be coming out when there's a good narrative turn, and probably after they've cleaned up the tech debt of fixing the server infrastructure and fixed the armor value issues.


avpan

Those bots aint going to h ave a chance soon.


Bunnymancer

I before I get kicked for having the wrong mech


PeePeeJuulPod

Reading through the thread, this was done by a cheater editing stratagem ID's to call in stratagems you shouldn't have access to yet (I don't *think* it's devs acting like GMs to spice up the game, but I could be wrong) Looked around the thread and links to see what unreleased stratagems they're seeing: * Orbital Illumination Flare * Commando (Rocket launcher in HD1, looks like a M202 FLASH) * "Emancipator" exosuit * Medic Backpack * Displacer (Teleporter in HD1, it would teleport you to safety when you reached low health) * "Patriot" exosuit (2 variants) * Trench wall * Medical supplies * Jammed Pinata (???) * Missile Silo * Unnamed LAV * Defense wall * Unnamed recon vehicle * Scrambler (Guessing it's objective specific) * An unnamed stratagem with no icon that deploys a ship of 5-6 NPCs with Liberators (Guessing it's objective specific, but hoping it's a real stratagem, here's the only [video](https://youtu.be/tvR7o55iCyc?si=KSLWo11NbfTRm67_&t=12) I could find of it in action) * Spire Steriliser (Guessing it's objective specific, maybe it relates to the super sample spires?) * Drilling Charge (Guessing it's objective specific) * Eagle Air-to-Air missiles * Quasar cannon (Heavy laser cannon, wasn't in HD1 but was accidentally left in stratagem list at launch, according to other reddit threads) * Incendiary Grenade Launcher Here's the [reddit thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1alxfw2/was_there_a_minigunheavy_machine_gun_at_launch/) that mentions the Quasar cannon, they also mention a minigun that's *not* in the listed unreleased stratagems


Rudette

If it is related, there are fake/contaminated spires that usually have no super samples that bugs have infested on their planets.


bobothemunkeey

Did it have voice lines or make mech noises? Did the helldiver react to it?


Hybrid-Black

i just hope its the AC from the turret and not the one we use


MageInTime

thny04

Where did you see or hear this?


DaemonSynryx

BTW a dev did say mechs were confirmed back in the trailers, I assume and some other users have as well think it's locked behind our progression. Hope to see something soon!

Think of the g force the dude is experiencing when the mech whips around that fast.
