HELLDIVERS™ 2 News

After the last one left it behind a bit, Helldivers 2's next patch will be letting the Purifier into the buff party, Arrowhead boss confirms

While, Helldivers 2's most recent patch tweaked a whole bunch of weapons, there were naturally some guns that didn't make the cut. Thankfully for those who might be a bit concerned their favourite bug blaster is missing out, Johan Pilestedt's now confirmed that at least one will be buffed in the game's next patch.

Helldivers 2's latest patch looks to have accidentally given players the ability to fly, leading Arrowhead's boss to respond the only way you could: via Simpsons meme

Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead wasn't shy about the array of buffs it included in Patch 1.001.100, but it appears there may well have been an accidental one that's slipped under the radar. Well, it's more of a bug, and it's letting players fly. Naturally, now Johan Pilestedt's seen it in action, they're begging him to just forget he ever did.

[h3]Overview[/h3]

Fix for SH-32 Shield Generator Pack
Crash fix

[h2]Fixes[/h2]

Fix for a crash during host migration when a new player joins.
Helldivers were accidentally granted the SH-32 Shield Generator Packs from General Brasch´s personal stash. These are reserved for 10 star generals only. The workers at the distribution center have been sent to re-education camps and regular shields will resume distribution.

[h2]Known Issues (Same as last patch)[/h2]
These are the highest priority issues that were either introduced by this patch and are being worked on, or are from a previous version and have not yet been fixed. This is not a comprehensive list.

Top Priority:

Players may not receive Friend Requests sent from another platform
Large units have no audio cues, allowing them to sneak up on players
Enemies will try to shoot the generators through walls in the Rescue High-Value Assets mission
Enemies are sometimes capable of shooting through walls
Social menu is stuck on ‘Please Wait Democratically’ for some players
Dead bodies of Chargers can launch the Helldiver into the air
Stratagem balls bounce unpredictably off cliffs and some spots
Players may sometimes be unable to join specific friends, or are returned to ship when joined

Medium Priority:

Reinforcement may not be available for players who join a game in progress
Mines may become invisible or may disappear in Multiplayer lobbies
Pelican-1 may sometimes be launched away if hit with an impaler tentacle
Supply packs may be incorrectly used if pressing down on a controller while calling in a stratagem
Friends "Invite only" games can still be seen on the Galactic War Map but cannot be joined
High damage weapons will not detonate hellbombs
Some enemies that bleed out do not progress Personal Orders and Eradicate missions

UPDATE: Helldivers 2's shield generator melee invincibility bug has been fixed, but you'll have to wait until the next patch for jump pack tweaks

UPDATE (18/09/24, 3:00 PM BST): Arrowhead has now deployed a hotfix that fixes the shield generator pack, as well as a crash which can occur "during host migration when a new player joins". The studio has urged those currently playing to restart their game, presumably to make sure this update gets applied right away.
