The latest patch for Helldivers 2 is here!
Patch Release
The highly anticipated patch for Helldivers 2, version 1.000.10, is now available on the PlayStation 5. Developed by Arrowhead, this patch addresses various bugs that have been preventing players from fully enjoying the game’s cooperative shooter experience. While the patch brings improvements, it also introduces challenges that Helldivers will have to face in the near future.
Matchmaking Fixes
Arrowhead’s Head Honcho, Johan Pilestedt, took to Twitter to announce the arrival of the patch. However, it seems that players are still encountering difficulties logging in to the game despite the matchmaking fixes that have been implemented. While the servers are still crowded, the framework for increased server capacity has been laid, giving hope to Helldivers enthusiasts for a smoother experience in the future.
Pilestedt Urges Players to Wait
In a surprising move, Johan Pilestedt even advised potential buyers to hold off on purchasing Helldivers 2 until the situation improves. This transparent approach sends a clear message that the developer is committed to resolving the ongoing issues thoroughly.
Record-breaking Concurrent Players
Despite the ongoing challenges, Helldivers 2 managed to set a new record for concurrent players on PC, nearing 450,000 active players. This milestone solidifies its position as the most played game on Steam. Similar enthusiasm is expected among PlayStation players.
Investigating AFK Auto-kick Feature
Arrowhead is actively looking into an AFK auto-kick feature to combat players who remain logged in for extended periods without actively participating in the game. This measure will help ensure a fair and democratic environment for all players.
