Balance patch 6/3/2024

📍 Major Updates

Planetary Hazards active

• Many planets now have additional environmental challenges that will appear at random while you are deployed, from fire tornadoes to meteor showers and many more.

⚖️ Balancing

Eradicate Missions

• Eradicate missions now require more kills and enemies spawn more often. The time to complete the mission was previously shorter than intended and should now usually take twice as long to complete.

Primary, Secondary, & Support Weapons

• Balancing adjustments made to the following:

• SG-225 Breaker - Decreased magazine capacity from 16 to 13, increased recoil from 30 to 55.

• SG-8 Punisher - Increased total ammo capacity from 40 to 60, increased stagger force, increased damage from 40 to 45 per bullet.

• RS-422 Railgun - Decreased armor penetration in Safe Mode, decreased damage against durable enemy parts.

• FLAM-40 Flamethrower - Increased damage per second by 50%.

• LAS-98 Laser Cannon - Increased damage against durable enemy parts, increased armor penetration, improved ergonomics.

Stratagems

Balancing adjustments have been made to:

• Shield Generator Pack - Increased delay before recharging.

• Orbital 120MM HE Barrage - Increased duration of the bombardment, decreased spread.

• Orbital 380MM HE Barrage - Increased duration of the bombardment, decreased spread.

🔧 Fixes

• Fixed armor rating values not reducing damage as intended.

• Fixed certain Bug Holes (including Stalker Nests) that were unnecessarily hard to destroy.

• Fixed anti-aliasing toggle not working on PS5.

• Balanced lighting across all planets to solve cases where the game was too dark.

• Improved flashlight efficacy.

• Increased visibility during “sand rain” weather on Erata Prime.

• Updated tutorial materials and lighting.

• Improved cases where some materials could look blurry if "Lighting" graphic setting was set to "Low".

• Fixed timing issues that could occur in the “Extract E-710” primary objective.

• Changed button interaction behavior for buttons in bunker POIs. Helldivers will now let go of the button after holding it for a few seconds.

• Fixed some cases of large assets floating if the ground beneath them was blown up.

• Helldivers standing next to ICBMs during launch will get properly toasty with a chance of not-so-spontaneous combustion.

• Fixed unthrowable snowballs after ragdolling.

• Fixed being able to use grenades after drowning.

• Camera no longer locked on the player's own corpse and blocking spectator mode.

• Helldivers now take damage from fire, gas etc. generated by other players.

🧠 Known Issues

• These are issues that were either introduced by this patch and are being worked on, or are from a previous version and have not yet been fixed.

• Picking up items from caches may cause characters to freeze in place for an extended period of time.

• Picking up items from bunkers and caches in quick succession may render one of the items unpickable.

• Occasionally mission reward multiplier may not be applied.

less than a week left!

I’m trying to decide between this, SSKTJL, or p3 reload. Too many games this month bro

Suicide Squad looks straight ass why would u waste money on it
Currently playing the new Yakuza game and it's incredible

Did you actually play it though? The alpha was surprisingly fun. It’s definitely one of those games that is better played than watched.
also I like destiny and division. It’s good for my monkey brain lol

I liked yakuza 7 a lot. Is yakuza 8 better or worse than that?

Nah I didn't play it, the world looks nice tbh but idk about the gameplay looks repetitive as hell might give a try when it's on sale

I didn't finish Yakuza 7 but I'm enjoying Yakuza 8 more so far, I'm 15 hours in and there's so much to do and Hawaii looks incredible, they added some fun stuff to the RPG elements which make it so much better

Yea, they should have released a straight up demo for SS. The gameplay is something you’ll either love or hate. I’m sure it will price drop very soon considering the backlash lmao

Also I’ll have to check out yakuza 8 now too.

SOON

Devs can watch your game and give you power ups while playing. Crazy

is it cross platform @NobodyWins

Yeah pc and ps5 can play together

got granblue and tekken ahead of this to buy but I am listening

This is only $40 👀

This looks fun

But I have less than 40$ of interest in it

L

game been looking real good for a while

• non predatory/passionated developers
• a multiplayer title on console (lol)
• innovative mechanics
• sleek graphics
• cheap

swear to god if this turns out trash

Copped, needed a action shooter

First games great. I’m sure this will be too.

Review embargo is up at 9 am pst.

Twitch drops available on the 8th

I’m so happy for arrowhead studios. It’s number 1 on steam!
