After a bit of a calendar mix-up, Helldivers 2’s next big patch is coming soon and has already inspired jokes about Skyrim being ported to some bullets

Helldivers 2’s next major patch is scheduled to be released tomorrow, October 15th, because Arrowhead forgot to factor weekends into their plans when they announced the 60-day plan during the summer. The good news is that the studio has made up for this slight oversight through a cheeky video teasing what’s to come in the patch, including an inclusion that shows Johan Pilestedt joining in on the jokes.

Yes, in another one of those cheeky little videos Arrowhead used to gradually reveal many of the major things that would be included in the game’s last big update, CCO Pilestedt and developer Niklas Malmborg addressed the fact that the 60-day plan is now technically one of 63 days.

“We don’t update during the weekends, because we don’t want to break the game while you play,” Pilestedt explained: “We decided to release the day 60 patch on day 63, which will be on Tuesday, (October 15).” Fortunately, the developers have offered some teases about the changes coming in the patch.

What were they? Well, the autocannon is getting some criticism (in a good way), the incendiary is getting “auto fire”, drone backpacks are becoming salvageable so you can avoid friendly fire, and the stalwart is getting “one of the coolest changes” in the patch.

Oh, and the recoilless rifle is getting “programmable ammo,” leading to a lot of speculation from players about what that could entail, including a joke about now being able to make DOOM run with its bullets, which Pilestedt responded to with a joke on Reddit’s: “and later Skyrim will be released on it.”

There is also a relatively new major order that has been helping the tide until tomorrow, with the last step in building that new space station, with the help of the deep mantle forging complex and xenoentomology center that divers have already secured in recent orders. , being as follows:

“Research progress is currently limited by the number of Terminid specimens available. Furthermore, the advent of the DSS will drastically increase our requirements for E-710. Therefore, High Command has ordered the establishment of a Terminid Research Reserve at Acamar IV.

“Terminids will be seeded within tightly controlled areas at Acamar IV, allowed to develop naturally but kept under control by a robust network of electrified fences. Research teams stationed within the Reserve will be able to request Terminid specimens as needed, assisted by SEAF Bug In the future, the Reserve may be expanded to provide not only research specimens but also easy-to-acquire E-710.

“The Helldivers must establish and maintain a strict planetary quarantine around Acamar IV, isolating the Preserve from the large Terminid host.”

So go help protect Gacrux, which appears to be the planet on the MO list – which also includes Crimsica, Turing, Darius II, and Pandion-XXIV – that currently needs your attention, and be sure to check back with us on the 15th October so you know when the patch is released and can get an idea of ​​what its full patch notes have to offer.
