But that also pegs the question, when they DO show up, are they and the bugs also going to fighting each other? Because remember that the black hole's pretty close to bug territory, it's not off in an isolated section of space.

We are considered the hostile, aggressive species and all of them are going to be fighting against us
The illuminate really have some people on edge, I was playing with some randoms and everything was going good but we all agreed this feels way too easy, we played on suicidal and there wasn’t a single stalker and we barely dealt with any bile titans.

The ghoul straight up reminds me of the taken from Destiny. The tripod though...Well it's a good thing we've already got a war of our liberated worlds.
Haha well they look rugged because we defeated them in the great war and they were cast out of the galaxy, the survivors created some sort of cult around magic or something like that. They've also mutated since the first game
@@froogleislive I never thought of the WotW aliens until now. What a nostaglia hit, I grew up reading Great Illustrated Classics and WotW was one of them.
So their zombies? Honestly, i had been thinking we could have a zombie faction, from some sorta spore from the aliens or whatever infecting super earth inhabitants. And whenever a helldiver dies, they have to kill that zombie helldiver in order to get their stuff back.
LOL no not zombies, they're squid like creatures that were technologically superior to humans but were cast out of the galaxy after the first galactic war, they now follow a cult like structure which is why they look so rugged
First we got Starship Troopers with the Bugs, Terminator and Star War reference with the Automatons, now we have WAR OF THE WORLDS WITH THE ILLUMINATE?!! OH NO!!
Unless you've played Helldivers 1, you are the one who are not ready. These things will be worse than bugs and bots combined. Unless they've been changed you should prepare yourself.
My Liberator is ready and my Destroyer too. But for now the Automaton frontline is in shambles and they are getting VERY Close to the Creek and I don't like to go through Space Nam again 😐
i expect illuminate will be same what super earth is for terminds. Like super earth using terminds for oil, so illuminate using peoples for something, and they just showed up becouse they need manage their democracy on super earth as on terminds planets humans does (becouse oil farms become uncontrollable) at least it will be one cool plot twist.
Nope, they want revenge for what we did to them a century ago in the first galactic war. Which we started because they had better technology than us and we decided to take it by force.
Im gonna be honest, I dont know if they'll be added anytime soon. I dont see how they'll fit into enemy balance, how do you sufficiently differentiate them from the bots and bugs without making them remiscent in gameplay of either? Also, what sort of noun are with suppossed to call them that starts with a B?
Yea i think you're right, there's still a bunch of work to do with the modeling, animations etc and without spoiling anything we still have a lot of the bot and bug story to complete before they will be introduced
These things will swarm you more than the fucking hunters I believe
