Helldivers 2

As we gather for the holidays, our game is getting a little sprucing up. Just like adding a pinch of salt to a recipe, Helldivers 2 has rolled out Patch 01.002.203, which brings some sweet fixes and improvements.

This small hotfix comes at just the right time, like that last-minute dash to the store for eggnog, and aims to tackle some pesky paint points players have been encountering.

Overview

  • Crash Fixes
  • Matchmaking & connection improvements
  • Miscellaneous fixes

Patch Notes

The team behind Helldivers 2 has addressed various issues with this patch, so let’s break down the key areas:

Matchmaking & Connection Issues:

  • Matchmaking improvements to reduce wait times.
  • Addressed an issue which forced disconnections in specific gameplay conditions during Illuminate missions.

Crash Fixes and Soft-locks:

  • Fix for a 100% crash affecting a subset of players within range of Illuminate towers during Ion Storms.

Miscellaneous fixes:

  • Fix Siege Ready armor passive not affecting ammo pools on initial dives when joining an ongoing mission.

You can read more about these updates directly from the source here! It’s always nice when developers take the time to listen and refine our experiences, don’t you think?

This patch feels like those unexpected gifts that make your day brighter, small but significant changes that help us enjoy every moment on the battlefield even more. What strategies will you try now that matchmaking is smoother?
