* While it's mostly played for laughs, the Super Earth itself. It's a horrible totalitarian dystopian government that is democracy in name only. The worst thing is that most citizens buy the whole thing.

* You can sometimes find [[VideoGame/{{Helldivers}} Hive Lord]] corpses as part of the landscape in Terminid missions. [[ParanoiaFuel A neat call-back to the first game or ominous foreshadowing of threats to be later added into the second]]? Not helping matters is that Hive Lords are unequivocally ThatOneBoss of ''Helldivers'', leaving many OG players biting their nails and praying that Arrowhead doesn't force them to relive the nightmarish trauma they've already incurred fighting them.

** The Automatons are creepy and [[Skelebot9000 skeletal looking robots]] of [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver red and black color]] with [[SkullForAHead a skull-like piece where the head is supposed to be]]. The Automatons are creations of the Cyborgs from the previous game out for the blood of the Helldivers to avenge their creators. And they will stop at nothing to do this, even [[UnwillingRobotization turning other people into more Automatons]] to replenish their loses.

** Unlike the Terminids who mostly send waves after waves after waves of their own to kill the Helldivers, the Automatons can think of strategies, such as throwing grenades to covering Helldivers, in order to make the fight for the soldiers all the more horrible to be in. Players usually call their fight against them in Malevelon Creek their equivalent to the [[UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar War of Vietnam]] jokingly but for the Helldiver in that situation, it must have been HellOnEarth, with unflinching machines gutting their comrades and turning them into red mist, them being the next victim.
*** It is also worthy to note that while the Terminids' are all savage and mindless aliens who have lost all form of sense when they were the Bugs, the Automatons are different. They absolutely '''hate''' mankind for the slavery they have enacted upon their Cyborg creators in Cyberstan and are willing to do anything to liberate them. You can see their hate for humans when they insult the Helldivers, calling them scum. It really shows that the Automatons aren't [[JustAMachine just machines]] like Super Earth is trying to tell, the Automatons are indeed sentient. '''And they want revenge.'''
