    I actually asked Trick Dempsey on the origins of Hulkers during the friday livestream (Myll_Eric helped me convey the question to him), sad thing I can't remember even half of the answer (was a bit tired, the defiance portion was in the middle of the night for me, so I was pretty tired). But hulkers are basically mutants anyway, lol.
    Platform: PC
    Character: Blackwolfe (EU)

    Rolling with the Red Thugs!

    The Mutant "faction" just consists of the EMC guys who got mutated. I don't think that in any way precludes there being other mutants in the world.

    Hulkers are biomen, mutated to their maximum "potential."

    That makes the most sense.

    I've been playing this game since the day it went live, and I just today noticed that when a Hulker is very damaged and towards the end of his life, he jams one of the bombs he carries into his own chest, which gives him the glowing red spot that also becomes a crit area.

    Hehe, I saw the commercials and thought the game would be dumb after they showed Hulkers. It just looked lame on the TV ad, like they were spoiling the realism of the game by adding huge men with exposed brains under their helmets. But in game, it works quite well. I solo the Wandering Hulker emergency every time I find it.

    I'm sure we'll see one of these characters in the TV series before too long... although why they are teamed up with raiders is beyond me.

    Just a thought but...

    ...because no one else will have them?

    No, they aren't. Biomen have serial numbers that no Hulker hold.

    Yes, they are. It was confirmed during Friday's live stream. You can watch it again on Twitch.

    That's what me and my friends were wondering: how in the world did they tame these guys/get them to cooperate. They look like they would be quicker to try and splatter Dekuso's Gulanee a** all over the walls than work for them, so the cooperation aspect is beyond me too.

    They did it AGAIN?
    People that "make up" instant canon because it's "cute" must start to refrain themselves.
    Like Hellbugs being butterflies posted in Facebook. Because was "cute" to associate the butterflies Irisa saw during the episode with Hellbugs.
    Now how they explain the lack of serials in Hulkers?
