When you’ve been enjoying Helldivers 2, likelihood is you have in all probability been booted to your desktop after extracting—I positive have. Sometimes, this bug causes a untimely return to civilian life on the finish of a mission, which is further irritating since they have an inclination to take over half an hour to finish. No less than, for those who’re as a lot of a sample-hungry completionist as I’m.
Happily, a repair is on the best way, as confirmed by neighborhood supervisor Twinbeard on the Helldivers 2 Discord: “I simply briefly wish to say that we’re conscious of the crashes primarily surrounding extraction/finish of mission that at present quite a lot of you’re going through. There is a hotfix arriving very quickly.”
As for a timeframe, Twinbeard famous that they had been “fairly positive” it’s going to arrive earlier than the brand new Warbond, which is scheduled to deploy April 11. Granted, that is a stable ‘possibly’ handed on by a neighborhood supervisor—and contemplating the unruly nature of sport improvement, there aren’t any ensures in bug-fix land.Â
Within the meantime, Twinbeard gently recommends that gamers both “cling in there or maybe let the sport relaxation for some time”—”maybe” being the operative phrase right here, as they later clarified: “I have not instructed anybody to take a break. I merely prompt it as a substitute for those who undergo quite a lot of crashes, till the hotfix is launched.” Which is truthful sufficient. There’s solely a lot a neighborhood supervisor (heck, even a dev) can do within the face of a gnarly glitch.
Regardless, I will personally be glad to see the again of this bug, because it does jam an unlucky interruption into an in any other case silky-smooth gameplay loop of capturing bots (effectively, bugs, since there aren’t bots anymore) grabbing samples, extracting, rinsing, repeating, and saluting the Tremendous Earth flag.Â
I’ve had a few play classes the place a crash has made me suppose ‘proper, I higher take a break’. Which… is perhaps for the perfect, truthfully. I am beginning to hear binary in my desires.
