Helldivers 2 Patch 4.1.1 Targets Crashes and Performance Across PC, PS5, and Xbox

Overview

• Update 4.1.1 (version 1.004.101) is available now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
• The patch fixes multiple crash causes, including hotjoining with certain stratagems, encounter triggers, rare mission-load failures, enemies clipping through terrain, and rapid weapon customization interactions.
• Miscellaneous fixes address extraction shuttle behavior near tall structures, restore missing haptics after gamepad reconnects, prevent tutorial ragdolls from falling through the ground, and stop unused textures from loading into memory on some planets.
• Performance tweaks include a PC-only fix for unexpectedly low-resolution textures, reduced stutter during drop-in, toned-down flashlight reaction on muzzle smoke to improve field of view, and optimized tree destruction to smooth heavy action.
• No balance changes are included, reflecting a continued stabilization push following October's larger 4.1.0 update.
