Helldivers 2 Dev Addresses Demand for More Servers
As the post-launch tweaking and polishing continues, Helldivers 2 CEO Johan Pilestedt takes time to respond to questions about servers and capacity.
One of the standout features of Patch 1.0.0.11 is the implementation of functionality that addresses Helldivers 2 AFK players. Now, if a player remains inactive for more than 15 minutes, they will be automatically kicked back to the title screen, ensuring a smoother and more engaging gameplay environment for all participants. Additionally, Helldivers 2 has addressed various other issues related to client-to-backend communications, aiming to optimize the overall stability and performance of the game.
Among the fixes included in Patch 1.0.0.11 are solutions for multiple crashes triggered under various circumstances. Players will no longer experience crashes when joining other players’ ships, exiting ADS (Aim Down Sights), or leaving a session while bombardments are active. Furthermore, issues such as the unselectability of online missions in the Galactic War Map and accessibility problems with the Ship Management panel have been successfully resolved.
Despite these improvements, the patch also acknowledges some Helldivers 2 known issues that are currently being addressed or require further investigation. These include missing text for the Requisitions and Social Menu on the Player HUD, potential crashes during Match Making, and error code 10003001 encountered by PS5 players on the login screen.
Despite its initial success, Helldivers 2 now has mixed reviews on Steam with almost a 70% positive user rating. One of the primary complaints from players revolves around persistent server issues, which continue to hinder many from accessing Helldivers 2 matches. However, Patch 1.0.0.11 is set to fix some of those issues. As Arrowhead Game Studios continues to support and refine the game, players can look forward to more updates and improvements in the future.
