Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has issued a new patch for the PC and PlayStation 5 co-op shooter that fixes the Spear after a previous update caused crash problems.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Last week\u2019s update 1.000.402<\/a> included a fix for the Spear not targeting several entities (spawners, compound objects, etc). This change was welcomed by fans because, it was hoped, it would finally make the Spear weapon more reliable out on the battlefield.<\/p>\n

However, players soon found that the Spear, the very weapon Arrowhead had sought to fix, caused crashes, resulting in a fresh recommendation not to use it. Now, patch 01.000.403 includes a fix for Spear-related crashes. Fingers crossed that\u2019s now the end of the Spear\u2019s tumultuous time in Helldivers 2.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, there are more fixes for a variety of relatively minor problems, and an updated list of issues Arrowhead is working on.<\/p>\n

Helldivers 2 is the fastest-selling PlayStation game of all time, having shifted an incredible 12 million copies in just 12 weeks since going on sale earlier this year. Amid the huge revenue Helldivers 2 has generated, Arrowhead itself has suffered a number of crises, including launch server problems and, most recently, a battle with Sony itself over the console maker\u2019s controversial attempt to force Steam players to account link to PlayStation Network.<\/p>\n

Arrowhead recently revealed it was in the process of setting the studio up so it could \u201cmake more and better stuff\u201d in the long-term. In an introductory post on reddit<\/u><\/a>, new CEO Shams Jorjani, who recently replaced previous Arrowhead CEO and now current Chief Creative Officer Johan Pilestedt<\/u><\/a>, said the studio has had to adjust to the enormous success Helldivers 2 has brought to the company.<\/p>\n
