What’s changed in the Helldivers 2 May 8 patch?

Only two changes have occurred in the Helldivers 2 May 8 patch, with both focusing on some common crashes that players may be having.

The first fixes those crashes related to damage over time, while the second addresses the crash related to players hot joining a quickplay session. However, as highlighted by Arrowhead, “This unfortunately means that hot joining players won’t show up in the recent player’s list until they drop down to the planet, or not at all if they leave from the loadout.” So you’ll need to plan your Helldives accordingly.
