This will include fixes to a crash that caused PC shutdowns, various connection issues, memory leaks, and even a fix to an emote animation.For balancing though, just over a dozen weapons have been adjusted, with most of them having their damage buffed.

New Helldivers 2 Warbond Takes One Of The Most Devastating Stratagems And Makes It Portable
Helldivers 2’s latest warbond is giving players even more tools of destruction, including a travel-sized version of a devastating explosive.
Warbonds are permanent equipment setsthat players can unlock through in-game currency or by paying directly, offering a variety of new gear and cosmetics with a theme. Borderline Justice offers a Wild West theme, with a “Super Sheriff” player title, a cheeky “tip hat” emote, andtwo new guns: the R6 Deadeye hunting rifle and LAS-58 Talon laser-powered revolver. The new Warbond also includes the Lawmaker and Frontier Marshall armor sets. Both of these have a new Gunslinger armor passive that increases reload speed for secondary weapons, reduces recoil, and increases the draw and holster speed.
Helldivers 2 Continues To Expand
Fun Warbond Themes Are Always Welcome, Let’s Hope For More
The latest patch forHelldivers 2has an impressive list of bug fixes and thedevelopers have promised that morefixes are on the way. As for the new Warbond, I think Borderline Justice’s space cowboy theme is pretty fun, and has the perfect vibe for fans ofCowboy Bebopand other space westerns.
Alongside continuously giving players ways to customize, the new Gunslinger passive is pretty handy - and aptly named. Hopefully,Helldivers 2continues to bring similar themes for future Warbonds to keep us coming back for more.
