Helldivers 2 New Update 1.006.101 Released on March 25 for Version 6.1.1
Arrowhead Game Studios has pushed out version 6.1.1 for Helldivers 2 and this houses a slew of bug fixes touching on Stratagems, crash issues and more.
Players will see this as Helldivers 2 update 1.006.101, and this should be a small download across all three platforms. This is to be expected, given that we received a big patch that ushered in new content just last month.
For the complete list of fixes, read on.
Helldivers 2 Update 1.006.101 Resolves SMG-72 Pummeller Reload Issue
Crash Fixes
- Fix a crash happening when swapping between weapons while planting the One True Flag in multiplayer.
Weapons & Stratagem Fixes
- The SMG-72 Pummeller is now able to reload if the Weapons magazine has bullets in it.
Miscellaneous Fixes
- The Burier of Heads title has been thoroughly investigated, and–since no signs of alleged dissident connections could be discovered–the title has been reintroduced. Helldivers who have unlocked this title through the Dust Devils Warbond should now find it among other titles in the customization menu.
- Increased amount of fog in the distance to look more cohesive and provide more ambient light (this is especially noticeable on a sandy moon).
- Increased brightness during Exostorms, to combat cases where it could get really dark within the Exospire mission
Outside of today’s fixes, there are still a large number of bugs that need to be slain, and we’ve included it below.
Known Issues as of March 25
New
- Audio is missing for the Enthusiastic Mirth emote
- The Double-Edged Sickle emits a high-pitched drone when firing
- Hive guard legs do not have the correct armor value
- Helldiver may not be able to manual climb in places where it is possible with the auto-climb.
Technical
- Players who are using the Microsoft IME languages are unable to type Korean, Japanese and Chinese symbols in chat.
- Network Desync can cause SEAF Artillery shells to not be inserted properly, causing a softlock of that objective
Gameplay
- Explosives can cause Helldivers hidden behind terrain to ragdoll
- Weapon customization doesn’t correctly display stats for sway and reload times
- City defend events don’t show the correct Super Earth controlled city biome.
- Some attachments and their stats are not changed in preview until purchasing and equipping.
- Destroying the Airbase Control Tower with a portable hellbomb before the objective calls for its destruction will softlock the objective.
- Melee kills are not being correctly counted in the end-of-mission stats or career stats
- Fleshmob is able to clip through various objects when Charging
Expect most of these issues to be resolved in a future update.
