You may be wondering about the delay of the latest Helldivers 2 patch, as it has not been released yet. Developer Arrowhead has addressed this issue on the game’s Twitter account, explaining that a last-minute certification problem caused the delay. The patch was initially scheduled for Tuesday, October 21st, but is now targeted for release by the end of the week. The studio is prepared to work over the weekend if necessary, but there is a possibility that the issue may not be resolved by Friday, potentially leading to further delays into the following week. Arrowhead assures players that they are doing everything possible to deliver the patch this week and will provide an update on Friday. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Arrowhead has postponed features like Warbonds to focus on improving performance, with optimizations planned for status effects, physics, asset distribution, VFX, and AI behaviors in the upcoming patch. Players can expect reduced stuttering during the drop-in sequence on Hive Worlds, along with improved audio IO performance and overall game performance. The patch aims to address current issues and enhance the gameplay experience, although players will have to wait a little longer for its release.
