Helldivers 2 recebe atualização 01.000.300; provocação com Escape from Tarkov

A Arrowhead Game Studios lançou uma nova atualização de versão 01.000.300 para Helldivers 2.

Fora as mudanças na quantidade de carregadores para armas específicas, muitas das mudanças feitas parecem projetadas para tornar certas armas mais eficazes, seja aumentando diretamente o dano ou aumentando propriedades como taxa de tiro e penetração de armadura. No lado para diminuir o poder, temos armas como o Canhão Quasar – que teve seu tempo de recarga aumentado em cinco segundos – e o Dominator (dano reduzido de 300 para 275).

Paralelo ao patch, a Arrowhead também fez uma provocação com o jogo Escape from Tarkov de PC. No caso, está rolando uma polêmica que envolve colocar conteúdo in-game que não é cosmético atrás de uma taxa de 250 dólares.

Com isso, a desenvolvedora fez esse post citando ‘250 SC’ para cutucar a situação.
