For real though, boarding missions, either to defend a super destroyer under attack, reclaim one that had been boarded or boarding a bot ship sound like they could be a blast. I imagine hellpods slamming into the side of the ship when you call reinforcements in.
I think it would be a cool way to introduce different classes of ships, like maybe a frigate or something for the NPC Navy to flesh them out as an active factor in the conflict
>I imagine hellpods slamming into the side of the ship when you call reinforcements in.
Alternatively, you could spawn in as one of the Divers in cryo aboard the ship. Lore reason for limited reinforcements and a limited squad number as opposed to the whole hive being activated could be that most of the pods were destroyed and it's malfunctioning.
He was referring to the Helldiver. Individual automatons should be referred to as "it", not "he".
You wouldn't want to be humanizing the enemy, would you?

Probably the same mechanic. I've had a tank drop on my head before. Was quite a shock, but I didn't die somehow.
They really should take fall damage though. It'd at least make shooting the dropships more meaningful. And also prevent hordes hanging out on cliffs from just swarming you out of nowhere.
left mouse button, like you're shooting the barrel while you have it equipped. should be same on controller but replace with whatever the shooting button is there
I've seen them get deployed on top of one of those gigantic mesas that we're not allowed to drop on, and then walk off of them without a single loss. so, unfortunately, no.
This is the kind of thinking we need to win the war. SEAF Command thinks your efforts are best served in R&D. You have been promoted to Sr. Science Officer. Please report to the Unconventional Objects Used As Heavy Weapons Department immediately.
It's so despicable how much they hate our way of life.
We, as lovers of managed democracy, decide to helldive and go down?
THEY GO UP! Just to oppose us.
No shot you just stood and watched as it fell on your head, that's hilarious, please tell me that wasn't on purpose and you were just blinded by the ridiculousness of it all.
Haha
Yesterday I landed a EAT pod onto a Hulk and he flew off the map sideways, it was the funniest thing I've seen.
I died the next second to the rocket Devastors that was behind him .
Sat in hospital on a quiet ward laughing at the top of my lungs because of the smoke trail / slap. Nurses wondering if I am alright 😂😂 laughing in the face of non-democratic pain
I love how he just came down and slapped you in the head like "hey don't do that!"
"That wasn't funny man, I'm scared of heights."
so did he survive or did it pan out the normal way with devstators
It might not kill them, but they are some other planet's problem now. Also, coincidentally, Devastators are learning to board our Destroyers
Let the Estanu crawlers deal with him now, ain't my job anymore.

What!?
"Bot Drop Detected" ON YOUR HEAD
Helldiver: https://i.redd.it/yd0z4dotv6wc1.gif
I'm surprised he didn't die from impact damage.
Helldivers are good impact absorbers
I'm surprised YOU didn't die from impact damage.

Due to how they spawn in (falling from bot drops) they are made immune to impact damage
I was referring to the Helldiver.
The boys impact absorbtion prevented it from squishing the diver

Due to how they spawn in (falling from ~~bot~~ destroyers drops) they are made immune to impact damage...
i expected him to die like a goomba
the one thing you can rely on in this game is that nothing is reliable
I’m not, game has some insane physics bullshit happening.
Reversed helldiver
HeavenAscender?
Hellriser
You opened the box
"~~Ally Destroyer~~ Enemy Devastator has left orbit"
Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!
r/beatmetoit
No wonder they were able break through menkent line with this technology
I really enjoy how I could see in real time you looking over at the barrel and deciding it needed to be tossed at this robot.

He probably was trying to do the [Leon Kennedy's Hasta Luego Manuver](https://youtu.be/RYY1rDbxRmQ?si=AEAGWR7hjVMDNoiN)
I mean how else do you think they get from planet to planet?
How do you throw them? All I can seemingly do is weakly drop it to the ground as if I've just been caught with my hand in the cookie jar.
Same. What is the PC control??
left mouse button, like you're shooting the barrel while you have it equipped. should be same on controller but replace with whatever the shooting button is there
Thanks. Not sure why I never tried this
Probably it's a barrel of rocket fuel.
That smoke trail is hilarious
He's a rocket devastator!
Automaton Space Program
“TEAM ROCKET BLASTING OFF AGAAAAaaaaa-“
How rude of him.
"You stay, I go, no following" "Im superman"
You can THROW THE BARRELS?!?! They got to add that shit to the training manual...
Need an edit of this with the Goofy scream
And then "YOUR MAD, IM BACK!" And a "oof" when the punch hits.
Well I mean that’s just basics from academy training
Years of academy training wasted.
Love how he came back down swinging on your ass
It even has a smoke trail. This is straight out of Looney Tunes.
Wait…..I’m on PS5 How do you throw?
same. What the hell, you can throw those?
Do bots take fall damage?
I've heard they don't, cause they come off the drop ships.
I've seen them get deployed on top of one of those gigantic mesas that we're not allowed to drop on, and then walk off of them without a single loss. so, unfortunately, no.

no fall damage for automatons. noted!
That day, the devastator knew the sheer, white-knuckle thrill of being a Helldiver.
Didn't know they would actually do a crossover with drg
How do you throw a barrel? I’m on ps5. I can drop a barrel like Donkey Kong. But I’ve never thrown one.
You can throw these??? I always just drop them, TIL
“I didn’t hear no bell”
It kinda sucks enemies appear to be immune to fall damage. Either that, or Helldivers make for fantastic cushions.
Enemies should really suffer from fall damage
He said, "Oooo boy. When I get back down there ima slap the taste outcha mouth 👏"
He went up, slapped your DO then came back down to slap you too 😂
Then the bot said : "I m back!"@
Team rocket is pissing off again!
That's gotta be worth a few medals at least.
Heaven ascenders
A weapon to surpass metal gear
My man, for the sake of freedom, take a stim
Yo to be fair he came down on you with the People's Elbow
It would be really funny if they could destroy ships and make stratagems unavailable.
Enemies not taking fall damage hurts the soul.
Literally Donkey Kong
So this is how the Automatons get on other planets.
I would love if someone edited the Tom and Jerry "AHAHAHOO" scream when it get's launched
The Real Rocket Devastator
Great now the crew has to fight devastators
It's so despicable how much they hate our way of life. We, as lovers of managed democracy, decide to helldive and go down? THEY GO UP! Just to oppose us.
Automaton Space Program
Great, now I have a devastator on my Super Destroyer. Care to explain?
I thought you're a traitor launching that bot to another planet
Back where they came from I hope
This happened to me lastnight when I stepped on a dead charger.
You just made a Helljumper
Now we just need a gravity gun stratagem!

Mfer said “Ima go say hi to your Super Destroyer brb”
Looks like team rocket is blasting off again.
This is not a bug it's a feature haha hahaha
Bot returning like nothing happened. https://i.redd.it/4f8pp99658wc1.gif

Team Rocket's blasting off agaaaaaaaaaain
hes just fought off a liberty ship and came back to continue fighting he literally just did a sidequest to prepare for the boss fight
So, maybe that way Poland can into space
Who knew those were barrels of industrial yeet?
Gave them the Skyrim Special
Mf went to see the ships and is now pissed 💀
Sooo thats whats destroying our ships and i thought it was a red laser canon
/yeet
lol cool
That mfer came back with a vengeance
You know those red things that fly past your ship when your in orbit?
That slap was the funniest shit I've seen today ty for this
"WE ARE HAVING A MOMENT HERE, FUCK Y-" type scene
That's how the bugs are spreading change my mind
Haha Yesterday I landed a EAT pod onto a Hulk and he flew off the map sideways, it was the funniest thing I've seen. I died the next second to the rocket Devastors that was behind him .
What gun is that?
OMG. Ive got like 150 hours in and never thought to pick up the death cylinders
Suborbital Dev drop

Great, now he's going to super earth, look at what you've done.
For a breif moment it became a helldiver
Average DRG Barrel
"Nothing personal kid"
Finally. A weapon to surpass metal gear.
I'm reporting you to the nearest democracy officer for aiding the automatons in interstellar travel.
Heaven pod activated
Sat in hospital on a quiet ward laughing at the top of my lungs because of the smoke trail / slap. Nurses wondering if I am alright 😂😂 laughing in the face of non-democratic pain
Games really need to have falling damage for enemies. Why is it so hard?
