Helldivers 2 Patch 1.000.104 Makes Arc Weapons and Stratagems Safe to Use Again
Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has released a new patch for the game that makes arc weapons and stratagems safe to use again.
Last week, Arrowhead told players not to use the Arc Thrower, Arc Shotgun, and Tesla Tower because they caused game crashes. At the time, the developer promised a patch addressing this would be released early this week, and now it’s out.
In releasing patch 1.000.104, Arrowhead issued an updated list of known issues it’s working to address. The list includes various issues involving friend invites and cross-play, and a problem with Hellpod steering, which is currently disabled in a large area around large or important objects.

According to at least one analyst, it’s still growing. Check out IGN’s Helldivers 2 review to find out why it’s going down so well.
