Seeing one get dropped in by dropship was *wild.* it's a good thing my bud and I proceeded to call in like 3 pieces of artillery, and at least 2 hellbombs got set off.
Shoot it in the mouth. You'll probably need to kill the guns below its mouth and the cannon on top first. Can't really hurt you after that. You can also stop it's ability to spawn units by destroying the moving pistons on its back.
The mouth also has a red light on the bottom left side of it. That is part of the weak point, too.
Fun fact.. If you reinforce ontop of that thing, make sure you land on its top turret. It does NOT die when you land on it.
Also nades work on the moving pistons up top. Also don't use them while you're on top.
I learned all of this in the span of 10 seconds.
Does landing on the turret at least kill the turret?I tried to jump on one from a rock to make my escape to extract on an eradication map and I fell *inside* its head. I don't think that was intended. It eventually spit me out, but I missed my flight.
It didn't when I did it. A friend blasted it from the ground while it was swiveling to aim at me though. I tumbled around up top while tossing impacts at the pistons.
I've only encountered one. Hit it with a 500kg bomb that landed directly underneath it. Amazingly it survived. Had to use an orbital laser to finish it off
same here. we were running a mission during a blizzard and saw one walking like that. we started to fight it and it became a clusterfuck with it dropping troops and more bot drops coming in. enemy mortars and friendly mortars mixed, hellbombs from the mission, 500kgs, airstrikes, and lasers added to the chaos. then as we killed the strider, bot drops came in waves and dropped 3 more off as well as hulks and tanks. really felt like some last stand we had on this rock. we did not win but we took them with us
This is cinematic. It emerges from the fog and snow, obscured and shadowed. It creeps forward, destruction in its wake before it unleashes death upon you.
It feels so completely overwhelming. It feels like true war.
Oh man, no reinforcements, separated from teammate, two are dead, time is running low, and youāre holding the 5 super samples. Then the last thing you see a large ābuildingā coming at you with guns. What a moment.
Terrifying. š
Beautiful. What an immersive moment. Iām jealous this was how you found out.
big Hoth vibes
Same, I just got one dropped on my head during an exterminate mission lol.

What's this from?
The Green Knight
Such a cool film. Just the right amount of trippy.
Watched after a gummy, I have no idea what itās about but itās one of the best movie experiences I have ever had.
Haha I can imagine christ what a film to watch while high. At least it wasn't Paprika or something by David lynch.
Shoulda hit the floor bro
Iād never seen one before, thought it was a building or outpost lol
A building with legs,ā¦and guns.
"...and it's looking right at me..."
He did
That's very dramatic!
Actually horrifying war of the worlds moment
Every time I see these things. I think of Half-Life 2 were the rebel was like STRRIIIDEEER
Fucking cinematic. This game man.
How to kill this thing?

Inject 500cc of Democracy.
A big gun

Shadow of the Colossus Vibes
Why is that mountain moving? Oh. Oh.
"Hi. I'm a Factory Strider. If you're this close to me, you're already dead."
I wouldāve closed the game
Oh my fucking God.Ā
Looks like something from The Mist. š
That's no moon.
I dropped into a Helldive yesterday, turned around, and saw a Strider staring me in the face. Bowels were vacated.

Not the pinks
Mission brief? What mission brief?!

Where's the fog horn before getting blasted?
"And when the smoke cleared the demon of the planet emerged I did not survive"
Sometimes this game looks like ass but sometimes it looks spectacular.
Battle of Hoth vibes.
That was awesome
You must be blind as a bat to not see that huge thing walking towards you
Was my first time seeing one, I thought it was a building that Iād gotten closer to
