Release Captain Morris, coming to you this democratic Tuesday with an important update from High Command.

Super Earth has detected strange signals from previously unmonitored worlds on the Galactic map. The Ministry of Intelligence is investigating the source of the signals. Helldivers, be vigilant and hold the high ground.

Patch Highlights

• For this patch, we have tackled a bunch of items from our Known Issues list, including audio issues, XP modifiers, and several crashes.

• We have made more optimizations and improvements!

• Balancing changes that raise weapon damage and fixes to weapon FOV.

⚖️ Balancing

General changes

Decreased ergonomics penalty on magnifying scopes weapon attachments

• The intent is to make magnifying scopes more a matter of preference by decreasing the penalty they impose on a weapon's ergonomics (low ergonomics makes the weapons muzzle follow the crosshair slower).

Some of the Pistol ammo balance update

• The intent with this change is to make some of the pistol rounds weapons more effective after the last pistol ammo re-balance that did make them more of a close range weapon.

• The pistol rounds re-balance general intent is to make them more effective at close range while not more effective at long range then for example assault or marksman rifles

2x Tube Red Dot

• Decreased ergonomic modifier from (-3) to (-1)

4x Combat Scope

• Decreased ergonomic modifier from (-6) to (-2)

10x Sniper Scope

• Decreased ergonomic modifier from (-9) to (-4)

• APW-1 Anti-Materiel Rifle is also effected by this change so it will get an increased ergonomics from 26 to 31

🎮 Gameplay

Keybind options for quick weapon function:

• New, unbound keybind options have been added for quickly swapping weapon functions (like changing fire modes or ammo).

• The intent is to give players better ease of use, especially for weapons with multiple ammo types like the Halt, Autocannon, and the new "One Two" AR.

Updated First Person View (FPV)

• We updated how First Person View (FPV) works with the intention of improving the aiming experience across different FOV settings (Field of view).

• The intent is that the size and distance of the scope will be more consistent with different FOV settings.

• We also updated how ergonomics works in FPV with the intent to make it more responsive.

• Fixed instances of flickering textures in various city locations
