"Helldivers 2 Patch Introduces Lethal Hazards and Balancing Changes"
TL;DR Summary
Helldivers 2's latest balance patch introduces new planetary hazards like fire tornadoes and meteor showers, challenging players with nature's wrath alongside bugs and robots. The patch also nerfs popular loadouts while buffing certain weapons and stratagems, and raises completion requirements for the Eradication mission type to deter farming. Despite the changes, Arrowhead Game Studios' quick response to dismantle player shortcuts reflects the game's challenging and enjoyable nature.
