The never-ending fight for freedom in Helldivers 2 takes on a new shape each day as players take on Automatons and Terminids to liberate Super Earth. Players have several weapons and stratagems that they can use to wipe aliens off the planet’s surface, but they want more.
Players recently liberated 10 planets to complete a major order within a given time, but they feel like a unique mechanic from Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 will help them against their enemies and easily take them out. What’s exciting is that it fits right into the game flow and would make sense.
Helldivers 2 Players Want Warhounds From the Game The Division 2
Reddit user u/This-one-dude took to the r/Helldivers subreddit and asked the community if they would like to see the ground units like warhounds of The Division 2 in Helldivers 2. Warhounds in The Division 2 are heavily armored robots with a large-caliber gun attached and also carry items.
The warhounds move slowly, and the gun needs to be charged before it is ready to fire, but if the opponents are hit, they deal great damage. The user added that players would be able to call the Warhounds using the Helldivers 2 stratagems or get them with side mission objectives.
This is not a bad suggestion, as the Warhounds could accompany the Helldivers in the fight, helping carry items they might need in the battle and also taking down enemies getting close to them. Fans have said that it is a “cool concept,” and they would defend turrets and cannons against chargers.
How would you feel about ground units like warhounds from TD2, that we could call in as either strategems or receive as in-mission side objectives?

Some added that it would be nice to have a friendly dog around in Helldivers 2, fighting alongside, and also that since there were cyborg dogs in the first game, “why not robot ones?” However, not all think the warhounds would be helpful, and they may become a problem.
Warhounds in Helldivers 2 Is Not a Bad Idea but Could Backfire
In reply to the user’s post, one player said that having Warhounds is not a bad idea but added that it is a good idea only until “the bots learn how to hack them and turn them against us.” Another player asked the community if there were chances of the warhounds killing them, to which a user replied, “One thousand percent.”
User Razdulf explained why they would not want Warhounds added to the game. They started saying, “No, absolutely not,” and added that drones are already causing issues and are above the players. If the Warhounds were to follow players around and kill them, it would not be good.
Some players said that it would be another turret trying to shoot them after some time, while one player said that there should be no friendly dogs or warhounds as they would get “too emotionally attached to the tiny robot dog,” with another user saying that developers could add them only if players are allowed to pet them.
