Helldivers 2 Receives Minor Update on November 18
Overview
Freedom’s greetings, Helldivers! Welcome to this “mini” quality of life update. Below, you will see some of the fixes the developers have been working on over the past few weeks. As always, we are excited to get your thoughts and feedback on how this improves your diving!
Fixes
Crashes,
- Fixed a crash that could happen when alt+tabbing or changing display related settings
- Fixed a crash that would occur when the Hive Lord would hear noises coming from outside the map area
- Fixed a crash that could occur when leaving or disconnecting from a game
- Fixed a crash which could occur when changing graphics settings during some missions (PC only)
- Fixed a rare crash which could occur when launching into city missions (PC only)
- Fixed a rare crash which could occur when the Pelican lands
Miscellaneous,
- Fixed an issue where the SH-32 Shield Generator Backpack and the FX-12 Shield Generator Relay didn’t shield those inside from the effects of Storms such as Acid Storm, Sandstorm, and Blizzard
- Fixed a rare bug where all audio could cut out after extensive playtime
Optimizations,
- Improved the way environmental effects such as Sandstorms, Blizzards, and Acid Storms apply their status effects for reduced impact on performance
- Optimized destruction on various tree assets to maintain performance when lots of trees are being destroyed
- Fixed Sandstorms and Blizzards no longer slowing Helldivers down.
- We have addressed a gameplay/performance issue which allowed Bile Titans to traverse through areas they should not have been able to.
There are still a handful of known issues, so expect more patches to be released before we wrap up 2025. If you’re looking for another shooter to pour time in, Embark’s ARC Raideres has been gaining more players since it launched three weeks ago, which is a rare sight to see.
