Helldivers 2 receives a fresh patch, targeting significant game issues head-on, notably addressing matchmaking concerns. Johan Pilestedt, CEO of Arrowhead Game Studios, expresses confidence that players will encounter smoother online experiences post-update.
The detailed patch notes are available on Steam, ensuring accessibility for PS5 users as well. Noteworthy improvements encompass resolving PC quickplay matchmaking blocks, refining platform authentication to mitigate issues like startup black screens, and introducing an automatic retry feature for quickplay. The update addresses various crash occurrences.
Johan Pilestedt highlights the patch’s focus on matchmaking resolution and readiness for heightened server demands. He shares his personal experience on Twitter, affirming the notably improved matchmaking success rate, albeit encountering occasional kicks. Even if the CEO encounters challenges finding suitable matches, players can anticipate a more seamless entry into the game.
Earlier, Pilestedt suggested patience for those unable to join the fray immediately, emphasizing the importance of waiting until server capacities can adequately accommodate players. Despite ongoing struggles to manage the game’s substantial player base, including addressing AFK issues, the latest patch doesn’t address this specific concern.
