Arrowhead Game Studios has patched Helldivers 2 again today to remove a number of outstanding bugs, including a crash that would transpire when there’s a lot of destruction on taking place and a crash caused when reloading the shotgun and entering the FRV MG. In addition, the developer has also listed a number of known issues that will presumably be remedied at a later date. You can read the full details in the Helldivers 2 update 1.002.002 patch notes below.
Speaking during a recent interview, the game’s director said that the studio is feeling more confident with the game than when it first launched, and hopes that its release accuracy will experience less of a bumpy road going forward.
