In the latest update for Helldivers 2, a co-op, twin-stick shooter game, developers Arrowhead Game Studios have released a patch addressing the issue of the game freezing when players used arc-based weapons. The patch, numbered 1.000.104, specifically targets the bug that caused the game to crash when the Arc Thrower, Arc Shotgun, and Tesla Tower weapons were fired. Arrowhead is also exploring the possibility of adding Gatling guns to the game's arsenal, promising to introduce such heavy weaponry with "cool mechanics" that accurately reflect their intense recoil.

The first game was set in a satirical dystopian future where players worked together as part of an elite intergalactic squad to protect 'Super Earth'. It became popular for its hardcore strategic gameplay, which seems to be continued and expanded upon in Helldivers 2.
