Arrowhead has delivered quite a few hotfixes lately for Helldivers 2. Unfortunately, they recently clarified that the Eruptor is not broken despite hefty player complaints, but they did quickly confirm that they were aiming to fix the autocannon as soon as possible. Thankfully, Arrowhead have just released another HD2 hotfix, and the very brief Helldivers 2 update 01.002.203 patch notes finally resolve the issues with the autocannon.
Helldivers 2 update 01.002.203 patch notes
Below are the Helldivers 2 update 01.002.203 patch notes as shared on Discord:
Overview
- Fix for Auto-Cannon
Fixes
- Fix for the Auto-Cannon reload bug, it now reloads as intended.
As you can see, it’s a hotfix with only one goal in mind, and that is fixing the autocannon that was completely broken. If you’re someone who doesn’t use the autocannon, then you should know that the issue involved the weapon no longer firing after the first reload, no matter how much ammo was remaining.
It’s great news that Arrowhead have fixed the autocannon as it is very popular within the HD2 community. This fix pretty much leaves HD2 back in a good state as, again, the issues with the Eruptor players are encountering are intended as opposed to bugs.
