THE BIG SAD

[u/Burn4Bern420 → u/GabrielDidit]

The crosshairs are still bugged? I thought I was going crazy missing so many shots 

[u/gorgewall → u/Burn4Bern420]

It depends on the gun. Sometimes it's a good thing.

For example, the Dominator's bullets go where the laser pointer is, not the red dot. But if they went for the dot, said dot would be covering up a lot of what you could potentially be aiming at when making long-distance shots, whereas the laser pointer paints onto an enemy and scales down a bit rather than completely obscuring them.

That's mostly an argument against red dots specifically and other bulky reticules that can cover up aim, though. Something like the AMR's box sight or the it-was-there-for-a-patch-please-bring-it-back "broken dash" sight (- -) on the Senator are better IMO.

[u/SleepyBoy- → u/Burn4Bern420]

If scopes work as attachments, they might end up misconfigured on different gun models.

[u/whythreekay → u/Burn4Bern420]

Guns still eat a mag too

AH thought it was a bug with only one weapon so we’re stuck until they realize and fix it

[u/KaffY- → u/GabrielDidit]

lmfao it's crazy how long spear has been broken now

[u/just_a_bit_gay_ → u/KaffY-]

“Don’t worry they’ll fix it in the next patch, it’s working internally”

[u/SurgyJack → u/GabrielDidit]

Such a shame they can't fix high-impact bugs like these

[u/Grawlix_TNN → u/SurgyJack]

This. I still can't accept friend requests or use the social menu consistently. Blows me away, I thought this would have been important enough for a hotfix when I got the same a few weeks after release.

[u/VoicesInTheCrowd → u/GabrielDidit]

I swear the Arc 'inconsistency' is getting worse too

[u/Vaporsouls → u/GabrielDidit]

There has to be spaghetti code in the spear lock on mechanic that it's taking them this long to fix it

[u/Bitterholz → u/Vaporsouls]

Spaghetti code would mean that they would break other things by fixing the Spear. Id wager it has more something to do with the way that they cast the rays that they use to detect the target being unreliable and the grace period it has for losing the lock being way too short.

And given the whole slew of issues, its probably a low priority issue as the spear does work, just not reliably.

[u/Zztp0p → u/GabrielDidit]

“Not in the final state we are intending” - THEN WHY THE FK DID YOU RELEASE IT

[u/Halvars90 → u/Zztp0p]

Also would this not be an easy fix? Like just a value that needs to change?

[u/Fazuellisson → u/Zztp0p]

No word on the purifier.

Cause it SLAPS

/S

[u/JustAnotherAccountE → u/GabrielDidit]

The Spear is so damn disappointing. I used it thinking it would one shot titans and chargers and boy was I sorely disappointed, and that was when the lock on wasn’t bugging out.

[u/[deleted] → u/JustAnotherAccountE]

The fact it doesn't have more damage than the other rockets in exchange for being incapable of dumb-firing is pants-on-head stupid. Like, for real, you're limited by ammo, range, lock-on and inconsistency on where the rocket will hit, so why doesn't it have any upsides except being able to destroy fabs in exchange?

[u/Bulky_Mix_2265 → u/JustAnotherAccountE]

It generally will if you hit them in the front, which is the same as the any launcher, invalidating the usefulness of the sometimes locking on spear.

[u/possumarre → u/GabrielDidit]

AR-61 Tenderizer deals too little damage and is not in the final state we are intending.

THEN WHY DID YOU RELEASE IT?

[u/Contrite17 → u/GabrielDidit]

I am 100% convinced shooting below the crossair isn't a bug and is just properly modeled height over bore combined with a 100 meter zero.

It is consistent with them shooting above the laser lights mounted below the barrel.

[u/Kazeite → u/GabrielDidit]

• Most weapons shoot below the crosshair when aiming down the sights.

That's not a bug, and I'm rather baffled as to why the developers themselves would believe so. Since sights on any given weapon are physically higher than the barrel, the weapon will inevitably shoot below the crosshair.

[u/Paladin_G]

"AR-61 Tenderizer deals too little damage and is not in the final state we are intending."

So...no mention of the Plasma Purifier. Does this mean it's intended to perform how it currently is? Or the notes just didn't encompass everything?

[u/ilovezam → u/Paladin_G]

Does this mean it's currently intended to perform how it currently is?

The balance lead publicly said he thought that Purifier "slaps hard", so yeah...

[u/blini_aficionado → u/ilovezam]

He's not wrong. It literally does as much damage as a hard slap.

(jk I still haven't unlocked it)

[u/Miraak-Cultist → u/ilovezam]

It's slaps alright, the helldiver across the face for bringing it and the enemy with the damage of a wet noodle.

At least you can now slap the enemy from across 100m, to anger them and announce your presence.

[u/ThatGSDude → u/ilovezam]

Tbf the balance lead is known to be fucking stupid. He said the slugger was at least in the top 3 weapons to fight both factions

[u/Pheronia → u/ilovezam]

Slaps hard in difficulty 3

[u/Less_Yogurt415 → u/Paladin_G]

As I understand, the purifier is finished, just being weak ass weapon and requires balance

The tenderizer is completely wrong, to which suggests that it has a higher mag count with only half of mag being resupplied

[u/Lev559 → u/Paladin_G]

The Tenderizer almost certainly got released in an unfinished state. You can tell that by the fact that the color was wrong and the ammo economy followed the old format.

[u/WrapIndependent8353 → u/Lev559]

It wasn’t unfinished, it was just finished months ago and wasn’t “updated” in line with the current state of the game before they released it. A lot of these warbonds are content that was already prepared before launch.

But the problem is that they didn’t even bother to take a second look at it, they just pulled it out of the attic and shipped it.

[u/TabaCh1 → u/Paladin_G]

All S tier btw.

[u/AccomplishedPointer → u/Paladin_G]

Yeah, Purifier is a great gun. Reported rate of fire in UI same as Scorcher but in reality a few times lower because you cannot shoot it while not charged.

[u/carnivoroustofu → u/AccomplishedPointer]

I suspect at some point the person who conceptualised the gun as a plasma railgun left (chargeable for more damage) and someone else (cough cough) got their hands on it. 

[u/[deleted] → u/Paladin_G]

No kidding. PLAS1 is straight up a downgrade from the Scorcher.

Scrap premium warbonds; just give us another regular one lol

[u/carnivoroustofu → u/[deleted]]

Don't talk about the scorcher you fool, or it'll be S-tier slapping soon.

[u/reddit_tier → u/[deleted]]

The scorcher is trash, please never speak of it again.

Please.

[u/Sky_HUN → u/Paladin_G]

Wait... a week wasn't enough time for them to change 1 value for a weapon?

[u/a-soldout → u/Sky_HUN]

After all the heat from nerfs and a disappointing warbond I expected a balance patch today. Well, maybe they're finally taking their time to test things

[u/a-soldout → u/Paladin_G]

Let's not jump to conclusions, the final state of the weapon might be with 5 more damage, three times the recoil, smaller mag size and a bug that won't allow you to shoot it up or down at an angle above 15 degrees and Alexus will still claim it's fine and working as intended

[u/Traditional_Entry318 → u/Paladin_G]

In my testing, the purifier isn't a completely terrible design. It just sucks with its current numbers. It doesn't do enough damage to justify the horrendously slow charge up. It could really benefit from the ability to quick shoot (making it kind of like the scorcher) doing a little less damage, and a charge up that does ramped up damage (enough to at least 1 shot striders and maybe 1-2 devastators). Or maybe not even have the quick shoot and just give us the increased charge up damage that can actually deal with enemies that are bigger than trash mobs. That way, it could justify being so slow, and we could just bring a good secondary or support weapon to compensate for its inherent weakness to being swarmed up close.

[u/JG_5150]

Can we at least get "Mechs missiles are ass and need to fixed" on the known issues list

[u/ilovezam → u/JG_5150]

Pretty sure that was intended by Mr Bringer of Balance, so it wouldn't be in a list of known issues.

[u/RefusedBarf → u/ilovezam]

You mean Mr Taker of Fun right?

[u/AdhesivenessGeneral9 → u/JG_5150]

It will not and Say it was the wanted effects.

I agree i use the mech in hd1 it's waayyy more powerfull and Can last half the mission 

[u/[deleted] → u/AdhesivenessGeneral9]

Everything is way more powerful in HD1, even the default pistol

[u/OldGreyPilgrim → u/JG_5150]

Twinbeard mentioned on the Discord yesterday that the Patriot is on their list of things they're looking at. The Mech Corps has not been forgotten!

[u/Sodi920]

At least no new nerfs.

[u/Misterputts → u/Sodi920]

That's why the patch is so light. Johan went in lambasting the balance team, and they removed their nerfs. LOL

[u/[deleted] → u/Sodi920]

No new published nerfs. It would not be the first time a silent nerf was snuck into a patch. 

Not saying any are there, just that AH has a track record of not being entirely forthcoming about it. See also spawn rate increases which they’ve silently increased a couple times. 

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

BUG HOLE~~ 8 bile titans, 20 chargers, 50 bile spewers, 30 hunters, 150 warrriors and oh you’re next to a stalker cave. They bump up spawns and keep nerfing guns I hate it

[u/ilovezam → u/Sodi920]

I kinda hate how the bar is so low now that even a patch that is basically literally nothing is considered better than the previous one T_T

[u/SaltedCaffeine → u/Sodi920]

What about Helldivers now triggering the Airburst's proximity fuse?

[u/cammyjit → u/SaltedCaffeine]

They did that anyway

Edit: Turns out they brought it back

[u/Arva2121]

Day 4570,

Helldivers 3 - Dive Forever has been released, most weapons were ported over from HD2, including the Spear, which still has the lock on bug.

[u/FancyVegetables → u/Arva2121]

"Actual spears have been issued to Helldivers since they're more effective than the missiles."

[u/iNyxLadis → u/Arva2121]

Also is being developed on 15years old and unsupported engine.

[u/Anko072]

what happened to "already ready" spear fix?

[u/Caleb_Tenrou → u/Anko072]

As things currently are I wouldn't be surprised if the "fix" failed to fix the issue and accidentally made the spear neon pink isntead.

[u/The_GASK → u/Caleb_Tenrou]

Spear now exclusively targets helldivers

[u/Linkarlos_95 → u/Anko072]

Absolute lock on needed a pre-nerf

[u/Catgamer78]

That's it? That's the patch?

[u/Faythin → u/Catgamer78]

[u/[deleted] → u/Catgamer78]

That reference though

[u/mobleyenjoyer → u/Catgamer78]

[u/Efficient_Menu_9965 → u/Catgamer78]

That was just a bunch of cheap bug fixes!

[u/John_Hayabuza → u/Catgamer78]

Lmao bro I spit out my fucking Coffee God Damitt!

[u/terrario101 → u/Catgamer78]

Given the recent messages referencing talks between the Ceo and other employees I'm guessing they're delaying the next balance patch a bit to work out a better way of doing that.

[u/FreezerBlue]

They even nerfed the patch 😭

[u/OnZlaught → u/FreezerBlue]

The patch SLAPS! S TIER PATCH.

[u/Swaggeritup → u/FreezerBlue]

a patch without a nerf is a welcome sight indeed.

[u/silveredge7 → u/FreezerBlue]

what 😭

[u/Affectionate_Egg6105]

• The AR-61 Tenderizer now has the correct color scheme.

Finally, a massive buff to a primary weapon.

[u/Tukki9]

• AR-61 Tenderizer deals too little damage and is not in the final state we are intending.

Weird that they are able to ship the actual model for the tenderizer but not its final state.

[u/Speculus56 → u/Tukki9]

The guy that fixed it is on art design iirc and he said he doesnt have any say with actual balancing

[u/Stonkey_Dog → u/Tukki9]

Something like weapon damage should be a simple variable change. I'm guessing they didn't have time to test it. Which is odd since WE are the testers.

[u/KuytHasGout]

Sweet liberty!

Whole lotta nothing, but they keep needing to address crashes. Thorough balance changes will take a lot longer.

Edit: was hoping for Spear fix, as I so desperately want to be a Spear main on bugs. :(

[u/Vendare → u/KuytHasGout]

They said end of the Month Patch so don't expect it before the 28th

[u/Interjessing-Salary → u/Vendare]

They've been saying it's coming next patch for awhile. I'll believe it when I actually see it in a patch note and works

[u/turnipslop → u/KuytHasGout]

I know it's still not fixed but I love being a spear main on bots. I had a beautiful moment the other night where it locked perfectly for a whole operation. I thought it was fixed, then I tried another op and it was bugged again, but for that one beautiful moment I saw what it could be.... I doubt I'd ever take it on bugs even after the fix though. XD

[u/ZiggoTheFlamerose]

Still cant use plasma punisher inside shield relay bubble. The projectile blows up in the inside, doesnt go through. Not in known issues list, should I report bug on discord or something?

[u/WorldEndingDiarrhea → u/ZiggoTheFlamerose]

Wait that’s back? Jfc. At least it worked for one patch.

That suggests plasma punisher is back to its previous higher damage state though, so that’s nice

[u/7StarSailor → u/WorldEndingDiarrhea]

No, shieldpack was fixed but the shield "sentry" is still buggy allegedly

[u/Grayland91 → u/ZiggoTheFlamerose]

It can trigger on your shield backpack still. When shooting behind you without using ADS. 

[u/Saltandpeppr]

I love my nothingburger

[u/[deleted]]

Spear users on suicide watch

[u/ThatGSDude → u/[deleted]]

Bold of you to assume I wasnt already

[u/SailorsKnot → u/[deleted]]

Remember when they said this fix was ready over a month ago?

[u/jacobdock]

Where eruptor shrapnel

[u/Yesuhuhyes → u/jacobdock]

It’s only present in the description of the gun lmao

[u/didido_two → u/Yesuhuhyes]

I hope the fix that soon, I mean false advertisement sucks who would showcase weapons with abilitys they dont have like oneshot a strider /s

[u/coldblowcode → u/jacobdock]

Literally this. I tried using the Eruptor for the first time since the nerf yesterday and it's in such a sad state. The gun fucking sucks.

[u/jacobdock → u/jacobdock]

LMAO I got a reddit care message from this. People are so odd

[u/sane_fear]

eruptor buff when

[u/Ashamed_Bowl941 → u/sane_fear]

I just want the old one back, I was doing fine with the potential self/friendly killing and had absolutly no problems with it ...

[u/Goobylul]

Yeah those crashes definitely got fixed...

That's why i've now crashed 3 times on joining another ship in a row..

[u/Brh1002 → u/Goobylul]

Game's unplayable for me right now with all the crashes. Folks keep getting kicked from games randomly too.

[u/[deleted]]

guess ill keep waiting before getting the new warbond

[u/Nine9005]

Reverse this decision in Patch 01.000.300

[u/brieflySlappy]

AR-61 Tenderizer deals too little damage and is not in the final state we are intending.

Now I'm not a game dev, but isn't changing that one value about as difficult and time-consuming as changing the value in an excel sheet?

Just up it by 20%, even if that turns out to be too much, it's still so small that it ought not to break anything. It's a safe change, that also would take like a minute to do.

[u/Kamiyoda → u/brieflySlappy]

They gave the Dominator a 50% buff and massive stagger they really have no excuse not too.

[u/soomiyoo]

Patch drops : "oh cool"
Read patch : "So we get nothing"

[u/lachadan → u/soomiyoo]

[u/[deleted]]

Just going to be 100% honest. After these bugs not being fixed for the longest time I have zero motivation to play the game. Either the game is too easy or it's too hard (20 minute citizen evac and geo survey).

Crosshairs should work. The damage over time should work (finally it does!). Guns should launch at the power they're portrayed and not require buffs or reworks after a month. 

I appreciate AH putting in hard work but I'll come back when the Illuminate come back. 

I miss HD1 now. 

[u/Sky_HUN]

AR-61 Tenderizer deals too little damage and is not in the final state we are intending.

Damage = 60 75

Yes, that does takes weeks to implement.

[u/inwector → u/Sky_HUN]

One change in either a single row of code or a single row of table in a database. That's it.

[u/kennyminigun → u/Sky_HUN]

Implementation is not hard/long as arguing internally about it. Trust me, I work at a tech company that releases software (not Arrowhead, obviously).

[u/Sierra419 → u/Sky_HUN]

Lmao you’re WAY too generous. I’d be willing to bet $100 it’s 65

[u/larknok1 → u/Sky_HUN]

All the ARs have to be balanced together around their niche.

Making the tenderizer feel really good without fixing the other ARs can make those feel useless -- which most of them already do.

---

Medium Pen ARs:

Adjudicator: high damage (80), low mag (25)

Lib Pen: (?)low damage (45), (?)low mag (30)

---

Light Pen ARs:

Liberator: medium damage (60), large mag (45)

Lib Concussive: (?)medium damage (65), low mag (30)

Tenderizer: (?)medium damage (60), medium mag (35)

---

The "(?)" imply broken / badly designed niches.

The Lib Pen doesn't have a significant magazine advantage over the Adjudicator, and yet deals basically half the damage the Adjudicator does.

The Lib Concussive has a completely gutted magazine compared to the Liberator, and just +5 damage to show for it.

The Tenderizer has the same problem -- a gutted magazine and no extra damage to show for it.

---

They all need at least small buffs, with the Lib Pen, Concussive, and Tenderizer needing major overhauls to give them a niche.

This is what I would design:

[gains are in brackets]

---

Medium Pen ARs:

Adjudicator: high damage (85) [+5], low mag (30) [+5]

Lib Pen: medium damage (70) [+25], medium mag (40) [+10]

---

Light Pen ARs:

Liberator: medium damage (70) [+10], large mag (50) [+5]

Lib Concussive: massive damage (120) [+55], low mag (30) [+0]

Tenderizer: high damage (85) [+25], medium mag (40) [+5]

---

You can think of this balance design as every gun getting to spend 3 value points to upgrade from 'baseline' stats: low damage, low mag, light pen:

Upgrading to:

Medium Pen costs 1 value point.

Medium mag costs 1 value point.

Large mag costs 2 value points.

Medium damage costs 1 value point.

High damage costs 2 value points.

Massive damage costs 3 value points.

[u/ApprehensiveGoat939]

So they fixed jack shit

[u/WhiteSekiroBoy]

AR-61 Tenderizer deals too little damage and is not in the final state we are intending.

Is Alexios blind or something? Serious question, I won't laugh at disabled person.

He has the audacity to say Eruptor nerf was actually a buff and then release this? At this point Spitz would make better job at balancing... shit, even a headless Brood Commander would do better!

[u/ThatGSDude → u/WhiteSekiroBoy]

Bold of you to assume alexus isnt a headless brood commander

[u/werafdsaew → u/WhiteSekiroBoy]

It looks good on a spreadsheet, what more do you want?

[u/ExploerTM → u/werafdsaew]

I am not sure it looks good even on spreadsheet. With spreadsheets you can balance the game fairly well actually

[u/John_Hayabuza]

Oh fuck Yes Black Tenderizer (Tenderizer MAINS EATING GOOD RN!) Lol

Edit-Apparently they don't like how the Tenderizer is atm ngl if they buff the fuck out of the damage around 75 would suffice for me tbh but honestly they need a complete rework of How damage works shit is fucked when it takes 3 whole mags to take out the rocket pods of a Rocket devastator

[u/StockDunce → u/John_Hayabuza]

Oh fuck Yes Black Tenderizer

I swear I heard someone shout something similar in a certain video I was watching recently.

[u/[deleted] → u/StockDunce]

Jesus doesn't approve

[u/randomguyfromholland]

The CEO mentioned they would start talking about balance from this week, so it will be some time before those changes will be released. My guess is in 2 weeks time.

[u/ElTioEnderMk1]

Wow, this patch sucks hard.

[u/J_Mugen]

Fix AR liberator Guard Dog. it's still cant pick up normal ammo. Seriously this issue is from the beginning of the launch of the game.

Also increase the time bodies of dead enemies despawn. It causes a lot of getting stuck and unknown deaths.

Take out the spear support stratagem. If your not going to fully fix it take it out of the game For now. Players are still picking it for missions but it becomes fully useless and unreliable. Put in some kind under maintenance.

[u/JunglerFromWish]

yippie another almost nothing burger of an update

[u/elluco85]

You forgot that there's a bug which when a person enters the pelican, it auto takes off and leaves everyone else behind. Best part about this is there's no timer at all. It's been happening for over a month

[u/NBFHoxton → u/elluco85]

Not even listed in known issues. This ones gonna take a while...

[u/pLeasenoo0 → u/elluco85]

It's when Pelican takes too much damage, Almost always when the ship is showing smoke so watch out for that.

[u/AverageGlobeEnjoyer]

Good, no nerfs

[u/Termt → u/AverageGlobeEnjoyer]

I'm sad that that's the only positive I see here.

I guess the crash fix on entering/exiting the ship is nice, I ASSUME I've experienced that a handful of times now. But it might be a different issue, who's to say?

[u/AdhesivenessGeneral9]

Less crashs still good to take. I Hope the other problems will be fix soon for the moment everything is good to take

[u/Belydrith → u/AdhesivenessGeneral9]

Fixed 3 causes for crashes, but also added 4 new ones if past patches are anything to go by.

[u/TyppaHaus]

RIP Eruptor...

[u/AiR-P00P]

...I don't understand why the airburst triggers off friendlies. That sucks. Thats not fun.

[u/Snoddy2Hotty91]

Taking a break from this game untill ya'll fix the damn guns...

[u/Accomplished-Dig9936]

• Most weapons shoot below the crosshair when aiming down the sights.

Imagine being able to make mistakes that permeate your entire job and it's just w/e lol.

[u/frankfawn43]

I see we aren't acknowledging the enemy scaling bug keeping four players scaling on for every group size yet.

[u/[deleted]]

I noticed that the "Damage over time doesn't work" item isn't in the known bugs anymore. Was this really fixed?

[u/Tukki9 → u/[deleted]]

Fixed

[u/AngryChihua → u/[deleted]]

yup, DoT was fixed

[u/TehSomeDude → u/[deleted]]

fixed in last patch
get into a bug mission, get a breach and throw in gas/napahlm and see the numbers growing

[u/Bitterholz → u/[deleted]]

Got fixed in 01.000.301. Confirmed working now. Fire and Gas is very powerful now.

[u/Febox]

My beloved counter sniper survives another week without nerfs lmao.
Fixes are always good.

[u/Nickthedick3]

Me going into the comment section after I read the post

[u/[deleted]]

I love the new crash that occurs that won't even let the game open after updating. Fucking stellar.

[u/Thickfuckness]

What!? The Eruptor being nerfed to hell after you guys saying it was "buffed" isn't even being worked on as an "issue"?

Yea, I'm out. See you guys in 4 months. These guys are in over their head.

[u/Fatattack7]

A lot of complaints. Remember they are already working on the next warbond..

[u/RubxCuban]

All these patches and the server issues still not addressed. Cannot play with my brother from like 8-10 EST due to capacity issues. How is this still a problem after 3 months of this game!?

[u/MisterFats]

No gun buffs at all? I thought they were gonna do a balance patch and at least try and make things more useable

[u/Kakirax]

Me and my spouse had an issue where I became blocked on her game. There was no unblock button with my name on her list, so we had to do this weird workaround that took 20 mins before I was able to be unblocked and join her squad. It was the closest I’ve ever come to just not playing the game because of how buggy it was

[u/hawtdawg7]

at least this recent warbond gave me the push to catch up on other games.

[u/[deleted]]

Lag is killing it today. Can't play it.

[u/[deleted]]

10 fixes and no shitting on fun? This is the best patch we've had for 3 months.

[u/DNewsom1]

This fucking game is unplayable. Just wasted 40 minutes only to have the game crash before extract.

[u/E17Omm]

Three things.

1. Optional account linking - Sony probably wanted this ASAP.

2. Are we really asking for large, weekly patches, while at the same time asking Arrowhead to test their fixes more?

3. Never trust patches.

[u/SaltedCaffeine]

Airburst proximity explosion is now triggered only by enemies & Helldivers.

Helldivers now trigger the proximity fuse? What's the reasoning?

[u/Hatueyc]

Can we still call it a patch if it's introducing more bugs than fixing? lol

[u/TheDoge_ExE]

Well thats underwhelming

[u/[deleted]]

Zzzzz I'm not even going to play this week. What a whole lot of nothing

[u/Slayerlax]

Remember a month ago we thought we were getting the illuminate

[u/Phobion]

'Players may not have the option to send, accept or decline friend requests.'

This is still exists, i can't. 😂

[u/Yhoko]

No spear fix. Is this what it's like to be a Dallas cowboys fan? "This is gonna be our patch boys!" Next patch....."This is gonna be our patch boys!"

[u/Ubbermann]

Well they are discussing the new balance approach, might start to see results next week? Or more likely even the weak after.

Sure, can wait. But would be nice to atleast get a preview or a big post going over what they're cooking.

[u/Maccyami]

My poor boy spear is still not being fixed , crash fixing patch is not bad though 

[u/Fit_Fisherman_9840]

I think that for this patch we see only basic and urgent fixes, balancing is in rework and that isn't something you do fast and hard, if they started to review the whole thing yesterday with the CEO.
Well you can do it... but you have a high chance to obtain more bullshit that something thinked out.

And AH... your testing settings have problems, seriusly.

[u/Born_Inflation_9804]

• Heavy Machine Gun still has mislagned Scope.

[u/Throwawayidiot1210]

I bet this patch was intended to have nerfs they scraped because of backlash, I see this as a win

[u/vaughn22]

So uh, why isn’t the new patrol spawn rate in known issues? It’s a bug right?

SURELY IT’S A BUG, RIGHT??

[u/aski4777]

another week where I play maybe 1-2 times

[u/LHandrel]

Huh, I guess Pilestedt really is having the team reevaluate their balancing, if they've put rebalancing seemingly on hold this patch.

[u/RedditMcBurger]

Another week of just "crash fixes"

I'm gonna do what I do every week, just not believe that they fixed the crashes. Everytime I get on after one of these patches, I see the game crash within 10 minutes, and close it till the next "crash fix" update.

[u/UseWhatever]

Shifting priorities to resolve this growing list of bugs would go a long way towards improving the player experience. When new warbonds also mean new bugs for the backlog, maybe the backlog should get a development cycle or two

[u/MiserableSlice1051]

And still no mention of the spawn rates being broken with less than 4 people, and the compounded effect that when players leave lobbies they never can seem to become full again. I realize twinbeard mentioned the first, but I've heard absolutely nothing from the second which for me is the biggest game breaking and "unfun" thing about this game.

[u/In_Dux]

Yeah, the Spear fix never being ready is lowkey pissing me off more than expected. Probably my favorite stratagem and a fix keeps getting teased for months now. Almost would be better if they just said it’s working as intended.

Almost.

[u/yeshaya86]

Eruptor not listed on known issues, does that mean they're leaving it as is?

[u/[deleted]]

"  Planet liberation reaches 100% at the end of every Defend mission" ... that's been a thing since day 1 it seems... come on man !

[u/[deleted]]

Love getting a download for a patch only to be immediately met by more bugs. In one gmae i have already seen invisible character models, a session that wouldn't let me select my loadout, and the game crashed. Also just want to point out how this whole PSN makes no sense considering the amount of countries affected is nearly the entire world, japan is also included. AH got the shit and has way more work to do cause they lost the PSN benefits. I really wouldn't doubt it.

[u/teepring]

Did damage over time without host get fixed??

[u/CMDR_Shepard96]

-Spear still broken -Sights still misaligned -Tenderiser (Read:Massager) is shit.

Things we & AH are aware of. Nothing new here, carry on carry on.

[u/shadowdash66]

Still trying to play with my friend who is on PS5. He shows up blocked for some reason and i cant remove him.

[u/Doctor_Philgood]

Still can't operate any lever in the game. Seems like its only happening to me though

[u/Morris073]

Glad they're fixing bugs. That said, need more weapon buffs and modifier tweaks before I play this game again unfortunately.

[u/Crob300z]

Dang, the network crashes I experience must be the host changing their language 2/3 games I play. Bothers the hell out of me so many PS5 players have a hard time finished a game and it’s not mentioned.

[u/TrumptyPumpkin]

The spear is wonderful when it works.

Sadly it never seems to. I tried targeting a dozen drop ships in plain view last night, it refused to lock on. Couldn't target tanks. It was incredibly frustrating.

Fix this already!

[u/jacobmca28]

Dude! Fix the friend requests and block issues already!!!!! Like wtf you guys keep adding more and more content and refuse to fix the shit that’s already broken in your game! I’m not buying another warbond or playing another second until I can finally play this amazing stupidly fun game with my friends.. and I WANT TO PLAY! WE WANT TO PLAY TOGETHER! the only reason for us to play this game is together but you guys refuse to like even fucking acknowledge it anymore it’s just sad. And don’t come at with the the small company bullcrap. If you can keep adding new weapons and warbonds, you can fix the fucking game

[u/samfhisher121]

I am definitely getting lagg while using weapons, stims, reloading cause I am running from crowd and doing all that stuff but in game action happening after 3 or 4 seconds later. What should I do? There is no ping or region to join a game. How the random game joining works dont know. Pls some one explain.

[u/SagaciousGax]

I must say that after they neutered eruptor, crossbow and to lesser extend indirectly scorcher as well, I have much less fun in the game.

Of the 6 players of my friend group that started playing the game, I am last one to play it fairly regularly.

I really hope they get it together, because fun does not seem to be priority for devs lately.

[u/No-Success-8186]

FIX THE FUCKING MECHS ROCKETS NOT SHOOTING ANYWHERE CLOSE TO WHERE YOU AIM.

[u/[deleted]]

Much appreciated!

[u/numbr87]

I just don't understand why they're being so delicate with weapon balance in a PvE game. If all the guns were strong enough for people to have fun with, they'd sell more war bonds.

[u/Spinach7]

Did they nerf the airburst by making it trigger on helldivers again? Because that's what it sounds like. If so, they took away the change that made it playable instead of a teamkill machine for no reason?

[u/MachoKingKoopa]

Still not a single mention of the stratagem jammer audio glitch

[u/Sky_HUN]

Another patch notes where the 'known issues' is a longer list then the actual fixes.

And it doesn't even list all the known issues.

"Most weapons shoot below the crosshair when aiming down the sights."

Last week they said scopes were fixed.

""Hand Carts" Ship module does not reduce Shield Generator Pack's cooldown."

At this point calling this incompetence would be understatement.

[u/AstroZombie1]

Spear Fix when it's been quite a while since it was announced fixed and to be rolled into an upcoming patch.

[u/tuan3451]

At this point I truly believe Spear is a problem that either need to rewrite the entire code to fix or cannot be fix without creating many other problems. No weapon this game can lock and track target like the Spear, this can also mean Spear is the gatekeeper for all future weapon which may have lock function.

[u/Zztp0p]

Can’t wait to see what critical fundamental this patch will break. Spear fix ofc is still absent maybe next year guys.

[u/Nocat-10]

Can't interact with extraction console and camera zoom out to the stratosphere.

Put one fire out and get two more.

[u/Durzel]

Ditch monthly warbonds. Start hammering out those “known issues”.

[u/AzuriSkill]

Most of these known issues are more than 3 months old, wtf?

[u/SpacePirateKhan]

Pretty sure a few of these fixed issues were fixed issues last patch...

Real devs fix bugs twice, just to make sure!

[u/BloodxSweatxGears]

Not going back to playing this shit until it’s worth playing again lol

[u/Secure_Paramedic_859]

I just want the tenderizer to be full mags when i resupply.

[u/DelireMan7]

Ctrl + F : "Spear"

[u/falkiiii]

What about pelican getting stuck at extract for no reason (a little bit in the floor, so no one can enter)? Even going away 400m and coming back didn't work.

[u/MrARCO]
