Arrowhead Game Studios on April 2 released the update 01.000.200 forHelldivers 2on the PS5 and PC. This update comes with significant changes to the level cap and introduces new planetary hazards. The patch also brings changes to missions, weapons, enemies, and more.
Despite being only two months old, theHelldivers 2community is very quick when it comes to reacting to any updates introduced by Arrowhead to the game. This is especially true when changes are made to the weapons in the game, as this is what helps them battle effectively against Terminid and Automaton.
Helldivers 2update brings changes to the SG-8S Slugger Shotgun
Helldivers 2players are having a difficult time with the recent changes made to one of the primary weapons in theupdate 01.000.200. TheHelldivers 2patch added new features and balanced some of the important weapons in the game. Players are especially unhappy with the changes made to the popular SG-8S Slugger shotgun.
With the primary distinction being that it fires slugs, the SG-8S Slugger is a variant of the SG-8 Punisher shotgun found in the game. The SG-8S Slugger features a scoped first-person shooter vision to target enemy weak points and a good range which is even better than weapons like Breaker.
When players are working onspreading democracyacross the galaxy, nothing is more useful than having a trustworthy shotgun like the SG-8S Slugger. It is also one of the primary weapons in the game.
In the new update, the SG-8S Slugger’s overall damage capabilities, ability to knock out bigger opponents, and capacity to destroy specific structures were all nerfed.
Since the SG-8S Slugger was thought to be the best defense against some extremely lethalHelldivers 2Automaton opponents, many are upset that the update has nerfed it. Fans started complaining about this in the game’s official communities and onsocial media.

Additionally, several fans claimed that Arrowhead Game Studios may have nerfed the SG-8S Slugger as a result of enhancements made to the premium weapons inHelldivers 2. As a result, players may start looking for a direct replacement for the Slugger and convert to using the more expensive weapons.
Helldivers 2update brings two new enemies to the game
Helldivers 2players noticed the arrival of two new threats on the Automaton planets following the update 01.000.200. The first is the enormous, four-legged Factory Strider, which stands in for a new class of robot opponents in the robot wars.
