Bit of a shit patch.

It fixed evac missions on higher difficulties (a bit), they fucking nerfed the operation modifiers that extended stratagem cooldowns or callins, some of the underpowered weapons got some love and level cap gives some meaning for doing missions again since hitting 50 was piss easy. Also Armor got somewhat buffed but I haven't used anything except light armor so I can't say anything about this.

RIP Slugger (and HMG got randomly nerfed from 1200 to 950 RPM).

Either way, not really a content update. But it is a good patch IMO.

I especially like the Penetrator now being full auto. That burst fire shit is annoying.

I don't have a good understanding of why the meta is the way it is but I've been using the dominator vs bots and think it's been performing great. The sickle is my go to vs bugs but I might have to bring the dominator out there too just to try.

Sadly, I don't have the slugger unlocked yet and I'm bummed I won't get to experience its full potential. Didn't feel like the HMG needed a nerf. If anything, it could have used some ammo.

Dominator chads ascendant right now.

The Slugger nerf isn't even that serious. 30 damage less might fuck with some breakpoints for headshots, but stagger didn't even work properly most of the time because you'd stagger an enemy and they'd still slide towards you in the stagger animation.

Played a few games against bots and I feel like its more balanced to bugs now for the same difficulty level comparatively.

I find the Slugger stagger nerf to actually be beneficial. Had multiple times post-patch where I nailed a headshot on a bot, where the stagger animation would've caused them to lean backwards. It's still very good, only reddit meta-babies are crying about it.

That Anti-Material Rifle buff is great against Rocket Devastators; two good shots and they're done.

I'm liking the Quasar. You can take out cannon turrets from across the map if you hit their weak spot. Or just two shots to it's face otherwise.

i've killed illegal broadcast towers and robot artilitary from across the map quite a few times. I've also taken out TONS of fabricators just running around the spawn bases stealth now, so much so that i often just leave w/e group i'm with and go do a bunch of them by myself because its just easier to cycle between killing the ones that are easy to get an angle on and throwing 500kg on others. I probably should switch to the orbital laser.

Is Hell Divers 2 the first game to get live service really right? I actually like that the devs play with the meta narrative that was created and can actually respond quickly instead of just following a pre-planned schedule with nothing else.

PRESIDENTIAL DECREE: The President of Super Earth has officially recognized this day as Malevelon Creek Memorial Day. This week, in remembrance, all Helldivers will be issued a special commemorative cape, so they may carry the memory of their fallen companions into battle.
