Helldivers 2 has just pushed out a quick emergency hotfix targeting a frustrating crash bug that appeared when players attempted to plant the CQC-1 One True Flag stratagem. If you’ve been running into sudden crashes wiping out your squad’s progress, this patch should bring some relief.
The host’s game was crashing for everyone else whenever the CQC-1 One True Flag stratagem was planted. That’s obviously a big problem when you’re trying to coordinate with your team and keep the mission rolling.
Patch 01.003.201 Hotfix Details
- Crash Fix
Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the host’s game would crash for other players when planting the CQC-1 One True Flag stratagem.
It’s the kind of fix that might seem small but makes a huge difference to anyone who’s had their run ruined mid-mission. I know from experience how maddening it can be to lose progress because of a crash triggered by what should be a simple tactical move.
In recent news, Arrowhead Games Studios has confirmed that there will be support for Helldivers 2 for years to come.
Have you been hit by this crash? Or maybe you’re just happy to see the devs reacting fast?
