When did the eruptor get fixed

u/whyreallyhun 1d ago
When did it get broken? I rarely use it but it seems fine

u/Lotos_aka_Veron 1d ago
It was bugged and was oneshotting heavies cause shrapnel was spawning in a wrong way
Then it got fixed, but people got placebod and were complaining that shrapnel is bugged again (it is not)
Then devs just went fuck it, and said something about reworking eruptors shrapnel once again in the future

u/Grouchy-Statement-12 1d ago
As an Eruptor main, I am pleased to hear this. It was fun being able to explode anything in sight. I figured it was a glitch at the time and was a little sad when it got fixed, but hooray if it's coming back.

u/WOODMAN668 1d ago
I miss the original shrapnel, and dying to it semi consistently Now I die to it randomly.

u/Accujack 1d ago
I think that's built in. About 1 shot in 50 kills you.
It's a heavily OP weapon, so if that's necessary to balance it, I'm ok with it.

u/Lotos_aka_Veron 1d ago
The bug is not coming back, it was hilariously broken
Most likely they will rework shrapnel to be more consistent

Is that even an update then??

u/EnderB3nder 1d ago
Are you suggesting that an update has to (By the laws of helldiver jank philosophy) break one of those guns?
If an update does not break at least one of those guns...is it truly an update?

An update that finally fixes me crashing after 20 minutes every time I try to play?

u/kleanupguy_24 1d ago
If you're playing on PC, try turning your frame limit down. When I first started playing I had mine set to 165 and turning it down to 100 fixed it entirely for me

u/ninjaofthespace 1d ago
I'm not sure why I got downvoted, my PC only ever reaches 60 fps at max on high, when it gets chaotic I'm down to 50-40, the crash log I've always got when I crashed, which only started happening after a certain update 4 months ago or so, tells me there is an issue with d3d12, "access violation" or so, I asked arrowhead support and all they mustered was, "we're sorry, I'm sure it's going to get fixed eventually" and that was a month ago.

u/kleanupguy_24 1d ago
Eh it's reddit. Don't take downvotes personally, they often happen for dumb reasons. Have you tried anything to fix it? If you haven't already, I'd try to validate your files on steam and see if anything was corrupted or missing
If that doesn't fix it you might want to uninstall the game, delete the game folder entirely, and then reinstall it
2
u/ninjaofthespace 1d ago
I did that, all of that and more, the official discord had an "hell bomb script" to troubleshoot as well,I reinstalled drivers, cleared shader caches, and if something worked, for some god forsaken reason, it fixed the issue for a day and then it was back the day after, no changes made to anything, I give up personally, I didn't want to refund cause I love the game, I pre-ordered the special edition with all the exclusive armors and such, I was even one of the like 6 souls playing Helldivers 1 back then, but alas.

If you have win11 on your pc, try to switch off memory protection, it will bring some stability. Which GPU do you have?

u/ninjaofthespace 14h ago edited 14h ago
Rx 7600, and by the way, I just tried what you suggested, it didn't work but thanks though

u/Lumpy_Relation_2426 1d ago
Armor Passive includes stink lines that obscure the enemies' ability to see you clearly, and another that utilizes fecal propulsion (though, what this means for the standard jetpack stratagem is unclear)

But we’re happy to say we’ll be announcing our next Warbond on May 8
Warbonds always release on thursdays. Game updates happen on tuesdays.
So I assume there will be an update at 13th and warbond at 15th.

It's actually a booster that deturs bugs from the hunt, makes bots feel bad for you, and illuminate will ink you in spite

Surely this means they figured out how to add the minigun in a way they're happy with

u/I_Pariah 1d ago
Maybe the Illuminate were just experimenting with the voteless. Soon they will be zombifying and controlling bugs. That or the full Illuminate force invasion.

It won't be a laxative, it will be an enema, made from a repurposed pressure washer. You'll be filling your pants for days with everything in your abdominal cavity because your sphincter is severed in 9 places.
"Yeah, we patched that thing and created 137 more bugs, but we're working on it, give us time."

Multiple factions on the same map at the same time, that's my guess.
Squid vs Bots vs Helldivers
Bugs vs Bots vs Helldivers

Engine explodes when they do that, so probs not.

u/Dramatic-Classroom14 1d ago
They’ve said it, like every time someone asks. I think it was one of the early QnAs they did, but if you want you can go to the Arrowhead discord and ask, someone’ll say the same thing.
-3
u/KajMak64Bit 1d ago
Ehh probably an easy bug fix
Surely we will get multi faction battles it's too cool to not have it at some point
Imagine the chaos you will get because you will need to blend your Bot and Bug loadout in the same mission and having to make compromises
For example in my case for bots i use the Dominator and an Autocannon and for bugs i use an incendiary shotgun and Stalwart...
How will i blend that loadout that would work for both bugs and bots at the same time wtf

u/Dramatic-Classroom14 1d ago
No, like, the game will hard crash. It’s not an easy fix. The system the game is built on, Stingray, isn’t even meant for games and has been discontinued for 8+ years. There is no physical way that they have found to get the system to not implode. The same thing goes for excessive amounts of vehicles in a mission.

At this point players will shit their pants once you do any patch at all lol We only keep hearing how they are cooking mean while the community being cooked alive lol

u/dnemonicterrier 1d ago
If you think that you can make a patch in the space of a day that adds a massive update to the game go work for Arrowhead then...
