HELLDIVERS 2 Patch 1.001.102 Addresses Crashes

HELLDIVERS 2 update 1.001.102 fixes weapon reload crashes, UI errors, and adjusts connection thresholds to prevent random session drops.

Patch 1.001.102 for HELLDIVERS 2 targets stability issues across weapon management, menus, and host migration events while adjusting gameplay interactions.

Stability Fixes

The patch fixes rare crashes linked to weapon reloads, chat windows, squad menus, and simultaneous access to the Armory and Ship management menus. Host migration crashes during bug breaches and after early migrations involving unique skins are also resolved, alongside a UI crash that displayed more than three teammates.

Network and Connection Updates

The game doubles the threshold for a poor connection between joining and existing players to reduce random disconnections. Host migration issues preventing stratagem objective completion are resolved, and PS5 players remain joinable after exiting rest mode.

Mission and Combat Adjustments

In Evacuate High-Value Assets missions, Automaton Hulks prioritize players over the Power Generator, and enemy spawn halts caused by host departures are corrected. Scout walkers take damage properly from flamethrowers and gas weapons and receive the gas confusion effect.

General Fixes

The SH-32 Shield Generator Pack transfers knockback to the wielder correctly. Backpack visibility issues while using the HMG Emplacement are fixed, and purchasing a stratagem no longer incorrectly increases the owned count across categories.

Why this patch matters

Patch 1.001.102 focuses on backend stability, eliminating crash triggers and addressing multiplayer connectivity issues.
