Arrowhead has teased “buzzing” updates for Helldivers 2 fans set to arrive on December 2nd. There’s no elaboration as to what this could be, but Arrowhead has told fans to put a “fiery” red circle around the date. This comes as part of the update 4.1.2 patch notes shared on Discord that you can find below:
Helldivers 2 Update 4.1.2 Patch Notes
Fixes
Crashes
- Fixed a crash that could happen when alt+tabbing or changing display related settings
- Fixed a crash that would occur when the Hive Lord would hear noises coming from outside the map area
- Fixed a crash that could occur when leaving or disconnecting from a game
- Fixed a crash which could occur when changing graphics settings during some missions (PC only)
- Fixed a rare crash which could occur when launching into city missions (PC only)
- Fixed a rare crash which could occur when the Pelican lands
Miscellaneous
- Fixed an issue where the SH-32 Shield Generator Backpack and the FX-12 Shield Generator Relay didn’t shield those inside from the effects of Storms, such as Acid Storm, Sandstorm, and Blizzard
- Fixed a rare bug where all audio could cut out after extensive playtime
Optimizations
- Improved the way environmental effects such as Sandstorms, Blizzards, and Acid Storms apply their status effects for reduced impact on performance
- Optimized destruction on various tree assets to maintain performance when lots of trees are being destroyed
- Fixed Sandstorms and Blizzards no longer slowing Helldivers down.
- We have addressed a gameplay/performance issue which allowed Bile Titans to traverse through areas they should not have been able to.
Although this is only a “mini” update, it is part of Arrowhead’s push to release new performance patches “roughly every two weeks” before hopefully returning to new content by December. We don’t know what Arrowhead are teasing for December 2nd, but it’s something to look forward to regardless.
While new content isn’t official, leaks have revealed Illuminate Cultists yet to join the battlefield, as well as a stealth Warbond alongside a lava planet straight out of Star Wars.
