Helldivers 2 Patch 4.1.2 Delivers Crash Fixes and Optimizations, Teases December 2 Update

Overview

• Arrowhead released version 4.1.2 (1.004.102) on PC and consoles, describing it as a small quality-of-life update focused on stability.
• The patch fixes several crash scenarios, including alt‑tab and display setting changes, Hive Lord audio triggers, disconnects, graphics-setting changes during missions, city mission launches, and Pelican landings.
• The SH-32 Shield Generator and FX-12 Relay now correctly protect against storm effects, a rare full-audio cutout is resolved, and sandstorms and blizzards once again slow players as intended.
• Performance optimizations reduce the impact of environmental effects and improve tree destruction handling, and a bug letting Bile Titans traverse unintended areas has been addressed.
• The notes ask players to mark December 2 for “fiery” and “buzzing” updates, prompting community speculation that remains unconfirmed, as the studio targets performance patches roughly every two weeks before returning to new content.
