Helldivers 2 gets another massive patch

Since its release (and surprising success) earlier this year, the team at Arrowhead Studios have been continuously updating and supporting Helldivers 2 with all manner of new content, as well as major balance tweaks. The latest update for the game is available now, and brings with it a very long list of changes.

Making the announcement, the team at Arrowhead offered a lengthy list of patch notes for update 01.000.300. Focused mostly on offering balance tweaks and changes, this patch brings with it “balance changes to weapons, stratagems, and enemies” as well as a “change to the Spread Democracy mission.”

The full list of patch notes can be found HERE, but some of the most impactful include:

• Armors with armour rating above 100 now also reduce damage on headshots
• Victory poses will now only play for the extracted
• Burning damage reduced by 15%
• Individual enemy tweaks (damage, move speed, weaknesses etc…)
• Subtle – and not so subtle – tweaks to over 20 different weapons
• Level generation improvements
• Atmosphere and immersion enhancements
• Patrol spawn tweaks

As mentioned, the full list of changes is extensive and detailed, and can be found HERE.

All in all, Arrowhead continues to prove themselves as one of the most reactive and in-tune studios, especially when it comes to fan feedback. Hopefully this level of support continues into the future.
