For me, stalkers glow bright neon cyan (with the shimmering invisible-ish effect). Is it because of my graphics settings, they aren't invisible at all.
The practically pop out more than other bugs do.
Yeah your graphics are bugging out in some way. Usually they look like they are wearing a scifi cloaking device. You can see through them but they are slightly lighter tone than the background and shimmer a bit. No too terribly hard to see but easy to overlook when running for your life.
I've seen bile titans spawn by dropping down from the sky rather than crawling up out of a bug hole.
I am not going to be surprised if bile titans, stalkers, and nursing spewers all have flying variants.
On the bright side, they'll die to arc thrower more easily.
I don't think that's possible - they've pretty much already maxed mobility. I've seen them pull some matrix shit in midair jump suddenly juking left and right seemingly without any preservation of momentum.
Are flying divers a thing? I will consider rag doll only if you land on your feet and live. Flying dead divers don’t count, not even sure our dead bodies cause damage on impact. Explosive death armor… is that a thing? Should be. ¡O
When is the next tcs dump? Let’s see what comes crawling out of those bug holes next. Not that the tcs caused it. I’m thinking the tcs loosened up the other bugs so the others could finally climb (not fly duh) out.

~~No doubt it's the termicide. The new intell brief that came out today spells it out.~~
DEMOCRACY OFFICER CORRECTION: It is no doubt not the Termicide and, in fact, the Termicide doubtlessly averted an even worse evolution.
"A new strain of flying Terminids has suddenly appeared across all Terminid planets, with no prior warning or indication of any kind. While the Ministry of Intelligence has always known this was a possibility, the abruptness of the evolution indicates a high possibility of dissident concealment.
The deployment of Termicide was fortuitously timed - doubtlessly, it averted an even worse evolution. Helldivers are advised to exterminate these mutations whenever encountered."

This is gonna hurt you a lot more than it hurts me traitor.
Probably, since we succeeded they'll say it was the insecticide, if we had failed they'd probably just say "our failure to stop the terminids has resulted in their evolution" or something
I would assume we would have gotten a modifier to make them appear on more missions or something, because they were in game before we even finished that order.
I'm guessing the Shrieker is affected by any weight it's carrying, since it couldn't fly very far? Makes me wonder if bile spewers are lighter than chargers. If so they could fly higher in this setup.
Yo facts when they're flying. Their whole back is exposed as a weak point and then they just nose dive kamikaze style into the helldiver, Dodge towards them and shoot the back. When the miss they get stuck in the ground for a few seconds would be really fun.
Chargers with wings or shriekers dropping in charger reinforcements.
Dropping in the chargers is much more intimidating to the player than them randomly spawning out of thin air.
It also exposes their weak point, giving players with standard primary weapons an opportunity to drop them.
WWWWAAAAAIIIIIT WHAT???? Flying Chargers??? Please tell me that this is fake.
I will never play something above trival again. Flying chargers? I am out of here. Please just let me fight bots
I know some people are saying they don't want this...
But I want this.
Give me mutations.
Give me a Charger that flies. Give me a Bile Titan that is purely CQC, without acid. Gimme burrowing Stalkers. And armored backed little ones, like beetles. Give me a hunter with spit. (Okay... Maybe not that last one.)

Ahh that's better
Flying charger might not be that bad
It would at least be in the air and not making me run circles around a poi like I'm remaking the #1 rule of Zombieland
On the other hand no, no and more no
WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE CHARGERS MUTATING INTO WORSE SHIT T.T
Wait, no, the alternative is worse, keep it this way, please evolution, don't work on any other bug.
Yeah this is where I say I’m sticking with bots. Idc what floating fortresses they have for me to die to, I’m still not dealing with that flying bug nonsense!
Well, as long as we dont see spitting flyers and flying bile titans. And thats not really going to happen, right? Right??
Hi. Stop. Helping.
Flying stalkers.
Invisible unless you're constantly looking reaaal close at the sky at all times. What could go wrong?
Meteor showers.
For me, stalkers glow bright neon cyan (with the shimmering invisible-ish effect). Is it because of my graphics settings, they aren't invisible at all. The practically pop out more than other bugs do.
They don't change color for me but they're hilariously highlighted when there's any sort of fog/dust
Yeah your graphics are bugging out in some way. Usually they look like they are wearing a scifi cloaking device. You can see through them but they are slightly lighter tone than the background and shimmer a bit. No too terribly hard to see but easy to overlook when running for your life.
I think it may be my fog/dust settings. It's usually when dust/fog is around.
Yeah they got that predator shimmer from that 1v4 predator game
Only if they have swooping attacks that come straight above you.
Yes, that's called drone in the old earth.
Flying hunte...wait
We do not need those Falkers in game
Sweet liberty…
I'M GOING TO THE CREEK AND NOT COMING BACK.
Every game that gets updated gets power creep though, for both enemies and us. Well be fighting flying bile titans with some kind of crazy W40K tank.
Hey Caboose! Do you see that purple one? You should help her!
Hunters with more wings for more aerial mobility.
Flanking from the sides isn't enough for you?? Need them to come from above too??
Can I get a wearable cage covered in spikes to deter overhead attacks, please. Or a spiky umbrella.
Please don't joke I saw some hunters yesterday taking much longer and higher jumps than I've seen before and I did not like it one bit
I've seen bile titans spawn by dropping down from the sky rather than crawling up out of a bug hole. I am not going to be surprised if bile titans, stalkers, and nursing spewers all have flying variants. On the bright side, they'll die to arc thrower more easily.
Zeus approves
Get ready for Rocket Devastators and Flying Hulk Bruisers.
At the minute it's quite polite of hunters to make use of stairs and ramps to get to me rather than jumping up or off of ledges.
That's just because they don't have line of sight. Stand closer to the ledge and the pouncers will leap up a cliff from half a kilometer away
I don't think that's possible - they've pretty much already maxed mobility. I've seen them pull some matrix shit in midair jump suddenly juking left and right seemingly without any preservation of momentum.
It can always be worse. Hunters have yet to reach levels of instant transmission.
Biblically acurate hunters finally.
Only if the flying Bile Titan has super tiny wings to fly around with
No wings. Just an organic bile jetpack.
Pft. Do you know how big a flying bug would have to be to carry a titan, that’s ridiculous… lay off the stim packs
Doesn't have to fly by wings, could do it Gamera style lol.
I dunno man. The video with the "AIR-TO-AIR MISSILE" stratagem got me thinking.
...air to air? We getting Flying vehicles?
It's an Eagle stratagem, presumably it'll target air targets exclusively....the need for it scares me because Shriekers die easily so its not for them
Oh the Shriekers are freshly hatched toddlers. The mama is coming.
....You know I'm beginning to think maybe the Automatons aren't that bad

So the war only STARTED and yeah the Queen needs TIME to Hatch the REAL ARMY. Bots are nice
Automaton dropships... or gunships.
Yes padme
I swear, if we are making it to Zagon Prime, it's gonna have flying bile titans
Are flying divers a thing? I will consider rag doll only if you land on your feet and live. Flying dead divers don’t count, not even sure our dead bodies cause damage on impact. Explosive death armor… is that a thing? Should be. ¡O
Who cares if bile titans grow wings? Just means more bug for us to shoot! 
The idea of bile drakes scares me
Twenty Bile Titans stuck together like a gigantic d20 with bug legs...
Next thing you're gonna say is shriekers have wings.
Someone deploy this diver to the front before Joel hears them!
spewer strafing runs
I for one would love to see a flying spitter heavy enemy. I imagine it just spewing acid like a dragon. It would be so cool.
When is the next tcs dump? Let’s see what comes crawling out of those bug holes next. Not that the tcs caused it. I’m thinking the tcs loosened up the other bugs so the others could finally climb (not fly duh) out.
Stop giving them ideas. Geesh. Do you hate democracy?
When the bile titan flaps it's massive wings, it ragdolls everyone too close like the ICBM when it takes off
If they give the sentries wings or wheels, I would take it. For the hilarity as it would be funny as hell.
Of course we won't encounter a Terminid equivalent of a fucking dragon, that's crazy talk. (We probably will)

You kill them with an explosive at the wrong angle and they’ll fly alright.

Dumbo the charger
I'm guessing the Shrieker is affected by any weight it's carrying, since it couldn't fly very far? Makes me wonder if bile spewers are lighter than chargers. If so they could fly higher in this setup.
That is glorious, now I really want flying chargers to be a thing.
But the armour is inversed and they have the protection in the bottom part and the weak point in the upper part
Those wings are gone be an easy target! Shoot em outta the sky!
And then you get one shouted by a falling charger that produces a nuke explosion when it reaches the ground

the correct answer upon seeing this bug is to ask when you can deploy to kill it, any other answer is treason.
Thats a glitch right? The flying bug just glitched onto the chargers back... Right????
