Helldivers 2: Big PS5, PC update coming, difficulty nerfs and armor redesigns

Published:

Helldivers 2 creator Arrowhead imposed a 60-day deadline on themselves to address the myriad concerns and concerns of the hyped community. Well, that time has passed and Patch 1.001.100 is here, bringing sweeping changes to gameplay balance, weapons, strategies, armor penetration, and difficulty across the board. Whether it will be enough to please the masses remains to be seen, but the results are immediately verifiable.

In addition to the additions to the Galactic War map, the emote wheel, and countless bug fixes, patch notes are quite extensive. If you prefer, you can ask Johan Pilestedt, Arrowhead’s original lead, to give you a tour of them in the 30-minute brief film above. For those who don’t have that much time on their hands, Helldivers Alerts account has a more accessible presentation for you.

The next Warbond Helldivers 2, Chemical Agents, will arrive tomorrow, September 19, where Arrowhead will also employ recent tactics. For the first time, the premium pack will not include a primary weapon, instead focusing on strategies and additional support gear.
