Helldivers 2 Devs Announce Major Buff-Focused Patch Amidst Balance Concerns

The upcoming September 17 update aims to make the game more fun but developers caution that future nerfs are still on the horizon.

Community Manager Thomas 'Twinbeard' Petersson rates the upcoming patch a 'strong 7 or 8' out of 10, emphasizing it is evolutionary rather than revolutionary.
The patch will feature significant buffs, including a quadruple power increase for the Railgun and a 33% damage boost for the Flamethrower.
Developers acknowledge past balance issues and aim to restore the game's fun factor with this update.
Despite the focus on buffs, Twinbeard confirms that more nerfs will follow to ensure balanced gameplay.
The patch will also nerf enemies like Rocket Devastators, limiting their rocket projectiles to improve game dynamics.
