Helldivers 2 Patch 01.000.202: Full Update Notes and More For PS5, PC
Helldivers 2 features a ton of destruction within the game, and whether you’re calling down an orbital strike to enemies, or using one of the new weapons you unlocked, something is always being shot at.
Now, Arrowhead Studios has released a brand new patch, with all the notes being found below.
Gameplay
- We have updated the stats UI for weapons to take into account any explosive damage done by them. This is to give weapons that do damage with explosive projectiles a more fair representation in the UI. Most notably affected is the PLAS-1 Scorcher.
Fixes
- Fixed some crashes that occurred when deploying to mission.
- Fixed some crashes that occurred during extraction and right after it.
- Fixed crashes that could occur if the squad deployed a large amount of support weapons.
- Fixed various crashes that could occur during gameplay.
- Fixed a crash that could occur when using heat based weapons.
- Fixed crashes which could occur if a player died while using the jetpack.
- Fixed crash which could occur when large volumes of enemies were present.
- Fixed crash which could occur when the player picked up a snowball.
- Fixed crash which could occur when completing an objective.
- Fixed hang that could occur while navigating the social menu.
- Picking up Medals and Super Credits will no longer lock the player in place.

- Certain weapons like the Sickle cannot shoot through foliage.
- Scopes on some weapons such as the Anti-Materiel Rifle are slightly misaligned.
- Arc weapons sometimes behave inconsistently and sometimes misfire.
- Spear’s targeting is inconsistent, making it hard to lock-on to larger enemies.
- Stratagem beam might attach itself to an enemy but it will deploy to its original location.
- Explosions do not break your limbs (except for when you fly into a rock).
