Helldivers 2

Attention, Helldivers! The latest update to Helldivers 2 is now live, bringing a host of fixes, balance changes, and some much-needed love to the game. Release Captain Carlberg has transmitted the details, and it’s time to gear up for a smoother and more enjoyable experience on the battlefield.

Patch Overview

This patch, numbered 01.001.201, addresses various balance changes and critical fixes to enhance gameplay. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect:

Balance Changes

  • Stratagem Adjustments: The Shield Generator Relay’s lifetime has been extended from 30 seconds to 40 seconds, providing extra protection when the heat is on.
  • SG-8P Punisher Plasma: After feedback from the Helldivers community, the weapon’s projectile behavior has been reverted to allow for a more noticeable arc. Additionally, the magazine capacity has been increased from 8 to 10 rounds, improving its effectiveness.

Fixes Galore

Alongside balance changes, the patch resolves numerous issues that have been plaguing players:

  • Fixed critical bugs that prevented mission completions and caused soft locks during gameplay.
  • Resolved issues with the hive breaker drill becoming inaccessible and terminals losing functionality.
  • Enhanced multiplayer stability by improving lobby joining mechanics.
  • Fixed a comical yet frustrating issue where dead bodies of Chargers would launch Helldivers into the air.

Weapon and Stratagem Improvements

Adjustments have also been made to various weapons and stratagems:

  • The LAS-5 Scythe scope is now fully operational, allowing players to zoom in and out effectively.
  • Improvements to the AR-23A Liberator Carbine’s reload time and magazine capacity.
  • Fixed issues with the stim pistol and RL-77 Airburst Rocket Launcher, ensuring accurate statistics and functionality.

Enemy and Mission Adjustments

Enemies have not been left out of the patch notes. The gas confusion effect on the Impaler has been disabled due to odd behavior, and Shriekers have received pathing adjustments for better navigation through tight spaces.

Missions also saw tweaks, including adjustments to objective spawning and drill placements to prevent them from dropping on bug corpses.

General Improvements

Finally, the patch includes various miscellaneous fixes aimed at enhancing overall gameplay:

  • Improved social menu reliability and fixed several UI issues.
  • Optimizations for performance and rendering improvements.
  • General performance enhancements to ensure a smoother experience across platforms.

With these updates, Helldivers 2 is set to provide a more polished and engaging experience for players. As always, the team expresses gratitude for the community’s feedback, which continually shapes the game’s evolution.

So gear up, Helldivers! It’s time to dive back into action with these exciting changes. Remember, your mission is critical, and Super Earth needs you!
