Helldivers 2 - Patch Notes 1.04

Arrowhead Studios has released a patch that addresses matchmaking functionality and crashing.

I really hope they can fix all the rough edges, I love the humor of this game. It reminds me of Starship Troopers

[LoveSpuds]

Yeah, it's a fab game, buy I've lost XP to crashes around 4 times in about 5 hours of gaming.

Consider yourself lucky
Since the last patch drop i can't even get to the title screen "failed to connect the server"

[LoveSpuds]

I had that too for a good 2 hours. It gave the chance to go back and finish Lies of P, so not to much an issue for me, but frustrating nonetheless.

@dranzer they are also doing server maintenance

[MrNinosan]

I had 2 crashes in 30 hours gameplay. You must've had extremely bad luck.
You on PS5 or PC?

@arkars
Seems odd when you your friend can play and you don't at the same time

@MrNinosan
PS5

@dRanzer
I was asking LoveSpuds.
For your issue, we solved it by joining friends from the friendlist on PS5 instead of trying to start the game.

Worked every time.

@MrNinosan
Playing on PS5 squire. To be fair, since the patch it's been much more stable, I did have one instance where I completed a mission and the credits/XP weren't added to my total and my level displayed as 0 during loading, but otherwise, its all been great after another 8 or so hours. It's bloody brilliant, I haven't been hooked on an online game for the best part of a decade, but thus game just resonates with me for some reason.

[Mr_cheese]

Not had many bugs outside of the matchmaking.

It's near impossible to join a random game at the moment but jumping in with friends seems to be fine (as far as my experience goes)

Love the game

[MrNinosan]

If you're ps5, just turn off crossplay and you can use Quick Play just fine.

[BlackDoomAx]

Or start a mission and wait a little before taking the hellpod, the party should fill up pretty quickly.

[Hedstrom]

They made server updates yesterday, they warned that through the 5-6 hours that would take you could get weird bugs. Hopefully it is fixed by now.
