Helldivers 2 patch sorts out the broken Ground Breaker armor and fixes multiple crashes
techradar.comA new Helldivers 2 patch has been deployed, finally fixing the CE-27 Ground Breaker armor.
Version 01.000.203 arrives for PlayStation 5 and PC today (April 16) just a few days after the release of the game's Premium Warbond, called Democratic Detonation, which added a bunch of new weapons and armor, including the CE-27 Ground Breaker medium armor set.
Players were quick to notice, however, that the Ground Breaker wasn't working as intended, confusing Helldivers, as it was supposed to include the Engineering Kit passive as opposed to the Servo-Assisted passive.
Arrowhead Game Studios later confirmed that this was a mixup that occurred when releasing the Warbond and explained in a Discord post that it would be fixing the issue in a future update.
«Regarding the CE-27 Ground Breaker armor, we're aware of a slight mixup that resulted in it going live with the Servo-Assisted passive instead of the Engineering Kit passive as advertised,» community manager Spitz wrote (via GamesRadar). «This should be changed back in an upcoming hotfix — please keep this in mind if this armor is one of the reasons you're thinking of purchasing the new warbond!»
With the latest update, the error has been resolved and successfully replaces Servo-Assisted with the Engineering Kit passive, so now the medium armor set should work as originally designed.
Alongside some more stability improvements, the patch also addresses a long list of crashing issues, as well as a bug that resulted in different damage being dealt between PC and console players. You can read the full patch notes below.
