Helldivers 2: Patch 01.001.007 Update
Hey there, fellow gamers! Are you ready to dive back into the action-packed world of Helldivers 2? Well, hold onto your controllers because Arrowhead Studios is gearing up to release Patch 01.001.007, and it’s bringing some serious firepower to the table.
What to Expect
We all love a good buff to our weapons, right? Well, get ready to wield some seriously beefed-up gear as a diver in the upcoming patch. But that’s not all – Arrowhead is also making sure that certain enemies are easier to take down. Rocket devastators and gunships are getting some tweaks to their explosive capabilities, making them more manageable foes on the battlefield.
The studio has been teasing us with little tidbits of what’s to come in Patch 01.001.007, building up anticipation for the big drop on September 17. And if that’s not enough excitement for you, the Chemical Agents Warbond will be available just a couple of days later.
Enemy Overhaul
One of the major focuses of this update is addressing the concerns players have had with rocket-toting enemies. These foes have been a thorn in the side of many Helldivers, with their relentless barrage of explosives causing chaos on the battlefield. But fear not, dear gamers, Arrowhead has heard your cries for help.
The upcoming changes will limit the number of rockets that Rocket Devastators can fire, adding a reload mechanic to replenish their ammo. This means you’ll have a window of opportunity to strike back while they’re vulnerable. Additionally, the collision area of the rockets has been reduced, making them easier to dodge. And let’s not forget about those pesky gunships – they’ll also have limited ammo, so no more endless rain of bullets raining down on you.
Developer Insights
In a recent video chat, developer Niklas Malmborg shed some light on the changes, stating that Rocket Devastators will now have to reload after firing a limited number of bursts. He emphasized the importance of strategic gameplay and adapting to the new mechanics to overcome these formidable foes. Johan Pilestedt, Arrowhead’s CCO, highlighted the reduced collision area size of the rockets, giving players a better chance at survival in intense combat situations.
As Pilestedt aptly put it, “I’m hiding behind a rock, they blow their load all over me, and then I can move out of cover.” It’s all about timing and tactics, folks.
