HELLDIVERS 2 Patch 1.000.103 Notes

HELLDIVERS 2 Patch 1.000.103 reduces the frequency and intensity of planetary hazards, fixes EXO-45 Patriot exosuit bugs, and resolves several game crashes.

HELLDIVERS 2 receives patch 1.000.103, lowering the spawn rates of planetary hazards like meteor showers and volcanic activity while fixing exosuit and crash issues.

Planet Hazard Adjustments

Planetary hazards including tremors, meteor showers, volcanic activity, fire tornadoes, and ion storms now spawn less frequently during missions. Meteor showers feature reduced explosion radii, slightly lower meteor damage, reduced meteor velocity, and altered meteor colors for easier visibility. Volcanic activity also features reduced explosion radii and slower rock velocity. Additionally, lighting on Fenrir III is dimmed during meteor showers to improve visibility.

Exosuit and Gameplay Fixes

The EXO-45 Patriot exosuit no longer destroys itself when firing a missile while turning, and it retains melee functionality even when damaged. Incidents of patrols spawning directly on top of players are reduced. Arc-based weapons like the Blitzer shotgun and AC-8 Arc Thrower stratagem now correctly count toward Shots fired and Shots hit stats, and network desyncs with downed Automaton dropships are fixed.

Stability and Crash Fixes

The patch resolves crashes tied to alt-tabbing in fullscreen mode, changing voice-over languages, PS5 booting, using a stim inside an exosuit while holding a grenade, joining ongoing missions, and idling on the title screen. Elgato Stream Deck Foot Pedal support is also restored.

Why this patch matters

Patch 1.000.103 makes planetary environments more manageable while eliminating exosuit self-destruction bugs and stability crashes.
