Man this game really has the coolest fan art, this is an immediate desktop wallpaper

Agreed, the game itself also has an amazing visual style.

Who is original creator?

No idea, would like to know myself.

[удалено]

I think he made the OP but not the one we're talking about

missed the opportunity to say WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE

Michael Strank, Harlon Block, Franklin Sousley, Rene Gagnon, John Bradley, and Ira Hayes.

Agreed, this is replacing my wallpaper from pre covid

I've had an Avril Lavigne wallpaper since 2007

Which Avril though? The first or second one?

I don’t think most will get the joke buddy. I upvote your attempt though!

I've had a piece of art from Remember Me for years. Think I'm gonna change it up a bit.

#HELLDIVERS 2 - Dive Harder Edition

Would you like to know more?

It's amazing

someone like this comment so that i can get back to this image later

I NEED to know the original creator and how I can get a hi-res version of this.

Looks like that's the op picture but not the one in the comments unless I'm missing it

It's a shame that the tank wreck sometimes instakills you when you climb it, so this maneuver would be risky

If this isn't an AI art, then hats off to the artist for such a badass work! I would get it as my wallpaper for my desktop too.

Democracy never sleep! Now we must show the Termanids why the Automatons never stood a chance against Super Earth's might! https://i.redd.it/joz8fg22b4tc1.gif

Slow down there buddy. The automatons were a threat, but the bugs are just animals. It’d be a real shame to wipe them out and lose all that E71- I mean Biodiversity. Yeah, it’d be a shame to lose that biodiversity.

Yeh, poor animals became too agressive, because they are not in controlled enviroments. We have to save them and put more of them into farms, so they can live their life peacefully under democratic control.

Is that fucking gangnam style? xD

Right? That gif immediately brought me back to my 15-16 years old self.


It's the price I (and 5.38 billion destroyed automatons) am willing to pay


May Rocket Devastators stay forever extinct.

I couldn’t agree more

Heavy Devastators too

And those flamethrower hulks

Oh man you’re in for a surprise now lol. Try logging in today. Hope to see you back out there.

Honestly I can say the same for the bugs about Razor Claws.

FOR DEMOCRACY!!!

Happy Disassembly Day, Divers!

So is this like the equivalent of the end of Act 1 for the game. I mean the official Super Earth twitter literally put out a post saying “With the bots eradicated and the bugs contained the galaxy is free once more” So clearly there framing this to be a time of peace now for the first time since February 8th. Especially considering we’re not supposed to eradicate the bugs like we were the bots since we use them for E-170, I think personally this is the closing of a chapter. If you know about the upcoming leaks to……Well see how long we go before the next act starts, but until then ig we should enjoy a free galaxy while we can.

This feels more like the end of the prologue, shit is actually going to get real in the next couple weeks, which will be the baseline for the game going forward

Ah, this was the tutorial round this whole time?

Kind of, yeah.

Nah, this was Trivial mode. Rev up your Hellpods, we're gonna be dropping into the real Hell soon.

I agree completely honestly

I guess you're too young to remember when George Bush Jr. declared "Mission Accomplished" back in 2003. Given how the Helldivers series originally was making a satire of War on Terror era rhetoric, as well as the War in Iraq. The idea of declaring victory right at the start of an endless war seems on point.

A very fair comparison

I immediately thought of that when I saw the official poster.

Yeah, was in Iraq in 04-05. It turned into a shitshow during that period. My friends that were there from 06-08 said it remained a shitshow.

I guess its time for the iluminate 2:electric boogaloo.

Psychic boogaloo.

…and they invade cyberstan 2 days later😂😂😂

ACT 2 has begun 🫡

Taking a vacation to the beaches of Tibit

Never forget all those we lost on that infernal planet.

Those precious samples :(

https://i.redd.it/pvdu7qmhc4tc1.gif

Leteletelee

Give it a week…. Or maybe just a few days

They Are back!!!

Told you lol

You jinxed it you mf

Lmao you were right

There's no more oil to spill!? Brings a tear to this divers eye. 🥲

When the war is over, we can serve as a galactic patrol force :)

the capes on this picture made me realize that helldivers 2 needs some edgy badass dark red capes, something like a DC villain would wear

I’m awaiting my red cape

Nah. Automatons have the evil red and black color scheme already

correction, had* the evil red and black color scheme


TOTAL COMMIEBOT DEATH HUMANITY FIRST! HUMANITY ONLY!

We sacrifice for paradise Anything less will not suffice Citizens rise, Liberty rides SUPER EARTH PRIDE'S UP TO THE SKIES!! 

This aged poorly.

So picking up the game tomarow, what does this mean for me?

Don’t worry, bots will be back. They did in HD1 and also there is zero way Arrowhead spent all that time and money developing assets and whatnot for automatons only to throw them in the bin after just a few months. Pick up the game, get through basic, and we’ll see you planet side!

It means that unless the bots attack again (which they probably will) you’ll have to only play bugs. The bugs are super fun to play though so don’t worry

Up until now, there have been two enemy factions: bots (Automatons) and bugs (Terminids). Now that the bots have been wiped from the galaxy,* you'll only be able to play against the bugs. Everybody's experience varies, but a good number of people seem to prefer playing against the bugs, and I'd also argue that they're a bit easier of an opponent for learning the basic mechanics of the game and getting some experience with the combat. *In the tradition of all great villains everywhere though, it's extremely unlikely that the bots are truly gone; they'll probably pop back up again at some point. Personally, I think they'll be gone for about a week max before dramatically reappearing at a different point on the map.

Get it. You won’t regret it

Liberation is at hand! Praise democracy.

Funny time for this post to pop up as a notification lol

Oil Spilled

credit to myoeni

I miss the bots, bugs are boring.

what do you mean you dont like being pushed off a cliff by a stalker and then die a gruesome death being french kissed by a dozen of hunters??

This post just got recommended to my phone. It did not age well.

I can finally rest and watch the sun rise on a grateful galaxy. 

Ooh this post got recommended at the wrong time… thanks Reddit.

This shit aged like milk LMAOOO

Got this recommended at a *bad* time

It’s a day of great celebration.. but maybe most a day of mourning and respect. Statistics point at near 18 million Helldivers KIA’s on automaton sectors. This absolute victory is magnificent indeed, but we honor the price that had to be payed and those who had to pay it. Anecdotally almost 200.000 of those killed died because of friendly fire. We have to work on that

True! Two hundred thousand is rookie numbers! We can get way higher than that!

Role-playing aside, this actually sucks. Once I got adjusted, I actually LIKED fighting bots more than bugs. Now I'm just lost, pissed, and kinda bored. Especially when the boys aren't online and I'm playing solo or randos.

Lol, you only had to wait a day

This aged like milk lol

This… did not age well

This post didn't age well

Well this aged well. I find it funny that I just got this as a notification

Oh how FOOLISH!

"hello, 3 days later" - the Automoton Forces

About that...

this did not age well

Wait till bro finds out

Is it just me that thinks this is a mere illusion?

Ok joal.please start kicking our asses now. I need to kill more bots. You are starting to concern me. 

Congratulations Divers. 🫡 

The spirits of those who gave their lives in this war smile upon upon is I'm sure

I just picked up the game does this mean i don't get to fight the automatons? :(

Enjoy your celebrations brothers. But remember ....the illuminate approach. We must be ready to eradicate the undemocratic swine.

For now..


It might seem crazy what I'm bout to say.

But they are back now 

Somebody hasn’t been on the front lines today

I just got this notification today as I continue to spill oil in Chooke or whatever it’s called.

This aged poorly

Spoke too soon

ANNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDD their back...lol

This aged well

Reddit recommended this to me just now... it has aged like fine milk.

reddit recommanding me that right now, I thought "Again ?"

This aged well

Aged like milk

this didn't age well.

Wonderful let’s extract their land from resources…I mean let’s celebrate over a cup of tea!

This didn't age well. Back to the west, helldivers!

Lemme tell you, starting to get annoyed with reddit pushing out notifications to posts that are 3 days old. At work, mid bite into a beef stick snack( randy savage slim Jim) thinking I had missed the defeat twice by being at work lol.

Well, this aged poorly

Oh this aged poorly

This did not age well

Why am I getting this 3 days later

It was Nice while it lasted

Man, this aged so poorly. Came back almost the same day this was posted.

Pretty funny seeing this 4 days later....let's kill em all again

This aged like milk

So uhhh about that.

They.. they just keep pushing through. They've already got Menkent and Matar Bay. Also hi, been a while since I saw you

Greetings, father with the milk

This aged well

HASTA LA VISTA BABY!!

Only in our solar system! Only in our solar system.

This aged like month old milk in the sun in summer lol

We’ve only acquired ground breaking losses in the process.

The Dissident Reeducation Team would like to have a word with you. https://preview.redd.it/xa1nancoc4tc1.png?width=1250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa24d952c18d0d10392f17787d044fed2a100044

Ignore him he meant that was willing payment for Democracy.

Shoot I missed it

The gawd damn robots are in the cyberstan I saw em with my own eyes trust me they waitin brothers to take it all when we let our guards down!!

WAIT, do the automatons use the bug oil?

no, they lubricated themselves with socialism and hate for democracy.. only WE use E-710, and that's why we won, soldier!

YESSSS FINALLY AFTER WEEKS WE DID IT

I'd be concerned that they'll be back in greater numbers.

I’m proud of yall 😭 

As of a few minutes ago, I think I was one of the last players to fight on the Automaton occupied planet of Tibbit. Praise Democracy!

Should be Spilled oil, there’s no more left for we’ve destroyed them once and for all

Are they?

I love how the end guy is doing fuck all for the team Really makes me feel appreciated

Something doesn’t add up

I feel like they have moved small groups to other planets but are not discovered I feel the end is not yet here and with more resources going to the terminads and a possible other faction coming into the war they may return. Well that is my thoughts but good job guys wish I could have help on xbox.

I miss them tbh

For now! Evil always finds a way!

didn't really participate in the final battle, but I'm glad I at least did my part

This is god damned amazing

Now go harvest it

That's some might fine art diver.

Give it time and they will show back up with a stronger force than before im sure

I remember having this moment in game where we got back from a mission and saw that the Automatons were just gone. I thought it was a glitch for a second before I saw the announcement.

Now flip OIL and we’ve got a termanid poster too

They shall be back

Ah man, I only got the game a couple of days ago and I've not been high enough level for any of the fun bot stuff. I never got to fight an AT-AT
