Helldivers 2 Update Today: Patch Notes 1.000.13

Helldivers 2 has released a new patch, addressing the unlimited stratagem glitch that some players exploited. Arrowhead Game Studios continues to deliver updates, tackling numerous bugs and crashes that hindered Helldivers' mission to spread democracy across the galaxy. This article delves into what patch 1.000.13 offers.

Helldivers 2 Patch 1.000.13 Key Features

The update, announced on X/Twitter, rectifies major crash causes, including issues when navigating the planet mission table and changing your Helldiver title. Despite its small size, it crucially resolves the unlimited Stratagem glitch. Previously, players who were kicked for being afk and then reconnected could exploit unlimited stratagems, leading to the abuse of the game's most powerful assets.

This patch also addresses issues with Super Credits not displaying after purchases and the Premium Warbond store remaining locked even after spending 1000 Super Credits. This was particularly frustrating for players spending real money without receiving the expected rewards.

Additionally, the update lists ongoing issues the developers are actively working to resolve, such as the absence of new daily personal orders, various mission freeze triggers, and the highly anticipated armor rating fix.
