The latest Helldivers 2 update 1.000.402 introduced quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes. But you know what they say: when you fix something, you often break something else. And this time it seems to be the FAF-14 Spear weapon, which crashes the game when used.
Helldivers 2 Update: Flamethrower Bugs Fixed & CEO Addresses Studio Issues!
As we reported yesterday, the Helldivers subreddit has been rife with complaints about the game’s sudden performance drops since patch 1,000,402 was released on June 18, 2024. For many players, there seems to be no difference between running the game on max settings and barely getting 60 FPS, and running the game on lowest settings and getting a whopping… 62 FPS?
But now the most vocal complaints are about the much-discussed and recently “fixed” FAF-14 Spear weapon. The support weapon, which must be called in via the game’s Strategem system, has gone from being severely flawed (hence the calls for a buff) to crashing the game entirely when it’s used and fired.
