The Socialist Automatons caught marching then caught lackin'

I heard an Automaton gloat "Super Earth will fall again" in combat at one point. They also constantly call Helldivers "scum" in combat

Me and my buddy heard the same weird chanting tonight. We were up on a cliff and about 8-10 of the Automatons were marching in formation below us completely unaware we were there.
Also the Bugs have unique behaviour too. You think you are ok and undetected, but then you look to the side and there are some of those Hunter bugs just standing there having a look at you, sizing you up. Sometimes they will do this for awhile and kinda just follow you while they send other types of bugs into engage you.

Stuff like this just gives the game so much personality.

what's even better about this is that the commissar(bot with the sword and pistol) is leading the group lol

I love that everything about the Automatons is designed to instill as much menace possible. I think thats an intentional part on the robots because they want to scare us as a battle tactic.

Automatons are strangely human. Singing marching songs, being supressed by gun fire.

No joke, during a civilian extraction mission i SWEAR i heard a bit say "they're making me do this" and another say "please help"
I am convinced i didn't mishear because i heard it from two separate instances. Luckily I was trained right by the ministry of load screen tips and put lead into them for trying to stay my hand with deplomacy

An Automaton is not a soulless abomination because it is a machine, but because it refuses Liberty. Always remember to deliver Democracy at center mass and in healthy quantities.

Are you gay"

[Kameeho]

CYBERSTAN!
CAN'T KEEP HER DOWN!
BACK IN TOWN!

[griwes]

I feel like they sing:
Heart of steel
Cant keep us down
Marching on
On to war

[Name-nwuj]

they did a pretty good job making the automatons distinct from terminators. it's clear they have ideas, language, autonomy, and separate streams of consciousness. they aren't a hivemind or just following orders because of their programming. they follow orders because they *want* to, like a person. this honestly might make them scarier because they all possess critical thinking and rational judgement ability, even if their basic unit's direct combat ability may be shoddy. their patrols still have the awareness to find and engage you if you aren't stealthy enough. a thinking enemy is an enemy that can improve over time, strategize, and come up with new tactics. I hope they expand on this and make the automatons smarter as the war goes on due to them gaining experience and using it to learn and improve.

I hope someday someone uploads a compilation of the bot noises

Was doing stealth on malevelon creek just now, crawling my way to evac, and this huge column come my way, chanting like this. Spooked the shit outta me

[belisauriusfish]

Something that I didn’t expect about this game was how angry the automatons seem. I love it. They aren’t mindless robots operating on cold logic. They’re pissed off.

[davonsden]

I noticed that as well just by a coincident while I was standing still cause I had recorded a clip. There is different types of chants as well. Really fun detail!

[cairosilver]

"And we all. Lift. Together!"

[mariox]

I you listen closely to their chanting you can make out what they're chanting about.

"CY-BER-STAN"
"CAN'T KEEP HER DOWN"
"GET BACK UP"
"GO TO WAR"

Despite the automatons being depicted as simple killing machines. The many things they do like chanting, using corpses in their bases for intimidation, etc. Suggests otherwise. They're fully aware of what they are doing.

lmao that cinematic "stepped on a twig" moment got me.
