What officially changed

🌍 Overview New Illuminate faction enemies New Weapon Customizations and Progression Crash fixes Weapon fixes Miscellaneous fixes 📍 Major Update Weapon Customization Gear up, Helldivers—your arsenal just got personal! With the new Weapon Customization system, you can now tailor your favorite weapons to match your combat style and preferences once you’ve progressed and unlocked different attachments. Whether it's tweaking sights for precision, changing color patterns, adjusting magazines for ammo capacity, muzzles to optimize weapon performance characteristics or adjusting underbarrels for the handling you want, you're in command of how your weaponry performs on the battlefield. Tinker in the menu, customize your specific weapon configs and switch between them during the mission loadout sequence. It's time to fight for Super Earth with weapons that are truly yours! We are aware of a bug that prevents players from canceling customization with a controller. We have a fix identified and prepared for our next hotfix. In the meantime, you can save the customization and then go in and do it again. New Illuminate Enemies Stingray : Jetfighters that provide Illuminate support from the sky, targeting Helldivers and lining up devastating strafing runs. Crescent Overseer : Has the ability to lay barrages on Helldivers in cover. Fleshmob : A failed Illuminate experiment made up of Voteless parts turned into a brute battlefield force that the Helldivers must work hard to destroy. ⚖️ Balancing Weapon balances: Spread Drag Sway Melee weapons stamina cost Shrapnel spawning Fire damage Spread: Spread refers to how much a projectile veers from the point you're aiming at when you fire. This rebalance primarily targets SMGs and sidearms, which previously had noticeably higher spread values.
