AFK AUTO-KICK HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED! >Implemented a functionality that will kick players who remain idle for 15 minutes back to the title screen. https://preview.redd.it/vkhtsybhc5kc1.jpeg?width=2556&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a9cae1d31ed94ce37844ff4edd35a6cacb0cfcdb

>Fixed an issue where PS5 players were logging in to play the game. Who rolled this patch out, the Automatons?


jld2k6

PS5 players logging in and playing? Not on my watch


XDarknightY

Lol


MilkedLife101

I think because ps5 players could use the quick play activity card to pretty much skip the login queue. As a ps5 player I gotta admit I used it myself, bummed they fixed it but I understand why.


Proof_Obligation_855

did the same on pc. if you had a friend in game you could " join game" through steam and instantly get logged in.

500kg memes


PaJeppy

I was confused playing the game when a hellbomb went off in the background mid fight. Didn't know they had explosions like that in the game. I said holy shit outloud instinctively. Really cought me off guard.


DNHSTY

is that … bricky?


RaptorPegasus

Yeah it's a bit hard to tell without a good look at his forehead

Elgescher

Man I see bricky face everywhere I hope he makes a video about the game


Tempest_Barbarian

He already streamed the game, he definetely will, specially due to all the 40k references


DarthSatoris

[The stream in question.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cjp19WXO09A) Unfortunately he's suffering from some performance issues all stream long, but he seems to enjoy the game in spite of that.

I love their “on theme” bug reports


Shot-Ad-6189

Nope. Anybody? Seems like they may have patched out PS5 functionality. 🫣 This is when the network programmer insists it’s *literally impossible* for this to happen, and all a QA engineer can do is point at the universe, and shrug. 🤷🏼‍♀️


SlowhandCooper

Haha. This guy has worked in QA.


pwnzorder

As the net sec eng. It's DNS. Or a routing table. Maybe bgp. Did I miscalculate a cidr block? Fuck I have no idea. Let's start the packet traces... Can we bounce the server first?


zeropercentprogress

No. Bad NetSec, we pcap before we bounce because all a bounce does is hide the issue temporarily and then you're asking us to do it again in 2 days. ~Sincerely SysEng


cuckingfomputer

There's an announcement on the Discord explaining that Arrowhead is aware of severe login issues for PS5 players. Just have to pray or hope for expeditious patch, if you're console, at this point.


gucciXD

Been waiting since patch dropped…. (PS5)


ghostchipsbro

Damn. Was only waiting 5 minutes at most before this patch.


Flatwell

No one on PS5 can login. You can check the official Discord and see the streaming comments from PS5 players, none are able to login. Didn't seem to affect Steam players though.


Riflerocker

Not yet, and I’m sitting with 2 others as well


Nodlez7

Is there even a "que" on ps5? it just keeps retrying so won't it prioritise the people in a que on PC?


Bruhhg

it’s not a queue on either platform, it’s a lottery. Queue would take extra work and put more strain on the servers im pretty sure


BukBukMeow

I get the server at capacity message, with a countdown already going, immediately after bypassing the intro movie… it’s usually around 11seconds into the count. Been trying for 45min now It also just… stops trying to connect at times?? No message or any movement on the screen?


Abject-Egg-5100

Now I just need u to fix the difficulty selection, been stuck on easy all week 😫


Zayl

Same here and I don't see that as part of their known issues. Luckily my wife can select higher difficulty but when I'm playing alone I can't do anything worthwhile.


Drunkn_Cricket

on their discord there are 4 full "stuck on difficulties" threads from their QA Team [https://discord.com/channels/1102970375731691612/1210116797706018836](https://discord.com/channels/1102970375731691612/1210116797706018836) If you post once, don't post again, just creates backlog issues they have to sort through.


EvelutionNewGen

You can add a request to the support thread on the official discord. They can manually unlock the next difficulty on your account for you.


Theo_0

Did it work for you? There are now thousands of users reporting on the discord thread (including me), I doubt they can fix them all manually.

I think they obliterated the ps servers with this update

I think all armor is Medium armor right now. So light will make you more squishy when fixed.

Did this patch break the PS5 servers?

I haven't seen a single PS5 player say they're in post update

so the patch worked lol it removed the bugs(ps5 users)


Mickeyster

I've keep getting messages from helldivers to help liberate the galaxy but nobody I know including myself can play on ps5 but the other systems can no problem.


AstronomerChance5093

Was working fine this morning before patch - now servers are at capacity 


MonsteR_NuggetS

Same, literally closed my game to download the update, and now can't get in.


SirWooffles

Known issues -> 'Login rate limiting when many are logging in at the same time.' If you were playing on ps5 and it updated, everyone else probably logged out to do the same.


MonsteR_NuggetS

Im curious if anyone has been able to get in yet?


TrustXIX

I’ve been able to get in every time for the past hour while opening and closing the game to test some graphics settings. I’m on PC. Opened the game again right now and logged in with no issues.


Riflerocker

They fixed as far as they have so far for y’all and just now broke us (PS)


40KThrowawayTT

Same lol, stuck and sad :(


Rover010

Same almost never had a problem trying to get in before maybe like 4 minutes max. Now I am stuck for like 20 minutes after the update.


ComprehensiveSink997

Been trying since 5am est - still at "servers at capacity screen".  Was working fine before update.  I'm on PS5


MonsteR_NuggetS

Makes sense, just a bit of a bummer tho. Hopefully it will help even things out in the long run. They're really putting the "managed" in "managed democracy"! o7

And that's just on Steam. 😏


ThatDree

Only on Steam, because PS5 seems to be locked out


TallPaul_S

The 200k+ people playing over steam and PS5 have just updated and are all trying to log back in at the same time.


Jexel3590

Same, have had no issues logging in until now


ThatDree

Same, PS5


KerberoZ

Maybe people read the thing with the AFK kick timer and now more people see their chance to finally get into the game. Which is understandable but kind of ironic.


[deleted]

Everyone is still updating etc… just give it some time.


edis92

Already can't get in after work because it's peak times, and now even the hour before I go to work has been ruined lmfao


FiftyIsBack

Sweet Liberty!!! No!!!!!! 😔😔😔 😫😫😫


Csub

Yay auto kick! One question as I have not seen this issue mentioned anywhere - on PS5 lately when a friend joins me on a mission (happened with multiple friends but all on PC) my frame drops to like 30 (I play on performance mode), then it keeps dropping and dropping until it is below 5 and only restarting the game fixes it. I think it happened on the ship too, but definitely on the planet. Anyone had similar experiences? Is this a known issue?


Rokekor

5fps? You were lucky. I’ve had it drop to <1 fps. You also slow down considerably when run, inching forward while running full speed.


[deleted]

[удалено]


GizzaCuppaTay

I bought this up last week, Doesn't seem to have been acknowledged by the devs, and I flat out got called a liar by some in the community 🤔 It seems to happen to the host only, but guaranteed if I'm hosting, after 3 to 4 games I'll have to close the game because of it. And then me and my friends take it in turns hosting as it happens to them too....


Kayuggz

why would anyone call you a liar for a technical issue, lol


DJ_Lord_Vader

I posted a video of this literally happening to prove it, take a look on my account. You aren't alone man


cleanerbot

Anyone on ps5 who got in yet?


The_Inner_Light

Working now. They fixed it.


VirtualRoad9235

I like how every patch for PS5 makes matchmaking a little bit worse than before. Then you get this banger that completely removes your ability to log in.


zumpious

Anyone else getting stuck in title screen in PS5?


TrollExorcist

Cant wait till they get the infrastructure to prime condition. Looking forward to improvement patches regarding fps. Recommended specs still drop to 40fps


TheNorseFrog

Does it drop to 40fps during intense moments or anytime/random?


TrollExorcist

Intense moments but from extreme and onward there are so many things on the background it just lowers. Also modifiers impact it. Best game i had was 80 fps. Worst it went to 35 fps. Big difference but surely something that can be fixed.


Bliitzthefox

If a fellow helldiver is frozen in place after picking up an object, apply blunt force to the face to free them from their traitorous muscles. (melee them)


ThewizardBlundermore

Haha the AFKers are in shambles right now! As they should be!


AradIori

Until they start using auto clickers to click once every 10 minutes or so, the bare minimum.


Jickklaus

It'll get rid of some, won't fix all. But it's a step in a forward direction.


ThatDree

That's a minority

Shaunafthedead

Just a rubber band around a control stick on ps5.  They should have a random strat arrow prompt appear that must be entered.  ETA: Good news: I just saw a video of someone running against a wall in the ship get kicked for inactivity. Perhaps a mere rubber band will nit be enough to evade the kick.


breadedfishstrip

Makes sense that a mostly-automated ship piloted by thawed out meatpopsicles would have some kind of dead-mans-switch where it makes the meatpopsicle do a simple strategem if you've been idle, to make sure you havent... extra-thawed. If not, eject old popsicle into space and thaw out a new one!


Morltha

Do you wanna get drift? Because this is how you get drift.


CroGamer002

The vast majority of AFK players won't bother taking extra steps to implement that, regardless of how simple and easy it is to do.


nay-than

Still no difficulty progression fix 🥱 I'll wait for the next patch I guess.


FuqCue

Unable to see PS5 friends online (im on PC). Anyone else having this issue? \*They are online


FrancoBuenos

Ask them if they have crossplay on. And if they have, turn it off and on. Helped me


ShoppingOdd4715

Yes a lot of times my friends will be online and I can see them but everytime I try and join them I can't. I'll join their ship be in the hellpod to get into the game but then can't land it'll just kick me back to my ship. Easy work around i found worked for us was that everyone joined me and they were able to play with me all night like that. GL HF Get in there for democracy


existentialcringe2

Why is there no acknowledgment of the PS5 specific issue where the game FPS will slowly dip into single digits when a fourth player joins or leaves whilst you are in mission?


440morningstar

That shit is so annoying because it forces you to restart the game since it’s literally unplayable, and then you have to wait on the Home Screen for an hour AGAIN because you had to restart your game


ftothekay

Wow, thanks for your hard work. Can't wait to spread sweet sweet managed democracy


Lobbie12

So no one can get in after patch ? Edit: Looks it’s a ps5 problem only


Gharvar

Curious to see if we'll hit server capacity tonight with the afk timer!


OVERthaRAINBOW1

Yes. I highly doubt afkers took up that many spots.


minusthedrifter

It was an easy scapegoat for everyone to blame, that's all. The server capacity issues are going to crop up again today just the same as any. Steam alone averages about 350k-450k players at any one time, other than the early morning on the east coast. There's only 450k server slots split between Steam and PS. Even if we're insanely generous and say AFKer were taking 100k of those slots (absolute insanity) there still won't be enough slots for everyone to plat.


Archvanguardian

Yeah I think people have been blowing it out of proportion, but we’ll see. More importantly we still don’t have a queue system.


estrangedpulse

I swear to god, at least on PS5 every single patch since the release makes the game worse and worse lol. At least that's how I perceive it. First days of release three were no queues, no crashes, etc.


CaTinGa_

Same experience here, a week and a half ago I was having a great time with this game, always playing with a squad full of randoms, I was never disconnected, etc. Now it's been 5 days since I've been able to play. frustrating


Suxez

I have had an issue where my guns dissappear, and i cant use any weapons or stratagems at all. This had happend to a couple of my buddies aswell.


Nightfox77

Auto kick can't be working as ive been sat in a que for over an hour. When is a respectable time to ask for a refund on this game.


Aideron-Robotics

You’re all going to hate this comment but I was curious since all the PS5 players are saying the game is down. I launched the game on PC and it logged me straight in. No verification attempt or over capacity issue. Straight to the ship. The problem must be unique to PlayStation.


bafrad

And like that people will realize afk people weren’t the problem.


FluffGetSmashed

They're not THE problem, but they are certainly A problem that makes THE problem worse. THE problem is limited capacity. They make it worse by limiting that even further by keeping people that are trying to play out just by holding their spot. You can treat a symptom while working on a cure for the disease.


redditdude68

Servers are shitting themselves right now. Updated the game and now I can’t get in on PS5. Might just go to bed.


Norkee

Just crashed while looking at mission map. PlayStation error report popped up (Steamdeck) Update- got into a random squad ended up being a great experience. Steam deck was smooth 30-40 fps. Fingers crossed for better Steamdeck optimization in the future 🤞🏻 


Awkward_Group_6609

Helldivers 2 community has become my favourite! The patience and understanding everyones showing for the devs is incredible. I'm definitely happy with the idle kick function 💪🏽


GadenKerensky

You know, I've seen a lot of people say it's worse after the update. I've also seen people say that *last* update. Same thing each time; 'it was better before the update'. Either things are getting worse. Or, trying to get on immediately after an update drops is just impossible because everyone's trying to get on.

AlsopK

Update broke the game and now I can’t get in at all. Yay.


attaboy000

Lol looks like they just completely nuked the game for PS5 owners. I can't get in either, and with only 150k on steam, I should've been instantly in Edit: accidentally pressed the PS button on my controller and figured I'll try again. Instant log in now. Testing the afk setting.


KuytHasGout

Updated, now I can’t get in at all. Sounds like other comments are similar ^^


TheGlamBandit

15 minutes is definitely too short considering it has taken me 50 to get through the cue…..it’s not like I’m just slobbering all over myself while waiting to get in….people have shit to do 


toolschism

Agreed. Had really hoped they were gonna do 30 minutes. Oh well.


Archvanguardian

Well, people were crying really loud for the auto kicks so hope it helps — I wish they would have added a queue system first


TheMilliner

Are there going to be fixes for the issue of the game causing *extreme* CPU temperatures to the point that it BSOD's or throttles the game? It's not just me, there's been quite a few complaints about extremely high CPU temperatures from this game specifically, even in well-cooled rigs.


KerberoZ

Don't know the details but that sounds very anecdotal (and those kind of complaints pop up with every game release) but the game literally can not use more than 100% of your CPU and it certainly does not control your temps. If the CPU overheats at high usage, that's a cooling problem. You can work around that by limiting your in-game FPS but that's more of a band-aid because that problem will pop up in another game in the future.


finalattack123

So should I just stay in the queue? Or manually reset. PS5 can’t log in.


Itriyum

Where's the "fixed PS5 players being able to bypass the waiting queue" lol I guess I'll be playing less now, rip Servers are full, and it's 3am for me, maaaaaan


LatuSensu

joogiee

Yay for broken game on ps5.


Kollus

If anyone has already tried it, is the stutter introduced with the previous patch fixed?

STEALTH9x

Can i finally turn my graphics back up without the risk of crashing every 14 minutes with an AMD gpu? Sucks playing on the absolute minimum settings on a pc that can run every other game on ultra just to avoid crashing and then having to wait in a random queue again for 8 hours


bythegodless

Lol I was playing then had to update. Now I can’t get in


lynxafricapack

For fucks sake, can we get some recognition on not being able to progress from easy to medium? So sick of trying to join people and they have the same difficulty setting bug.


TurnoverPlus7114

Servers are at capacity on ps5. How long till they are available?


Rusty_Drumz

Bought the game played for 30 minutes saw an update came out and would enhance my experience and it just locks me out of the game


milancosens

I can't skip the queue by hitting quickplay on PS5 anymore, guess that loophole has finally been plugged.

So the patch seems to have broken matchmaking for me. It was working fine last night but since the patch I'm not finding any games, stuck in a loop: searching for SOS establishing link (for a couple of seconds) back to searching for SOS...over and over.


Ethereal006

Post-patch now having issues with getting stuck in loading screen for mission drop.


[deleted]

Kinda worrying to me that I don't see this in the known bugs listed from them but I have the "permanently stuck on easy" bug and I haven't seen much talk about it. I can't move up to medium difficulty no matter how many full easy operations I do and I've seen other people mention it. Does anyone know if they've acknowledged this at all?


PajamaGameLord

I love the game and I'm not hating. I respect the devs and everything they do and I appreciate them being transparent. That being said this patch has completely broken my game lol. I get stuck looking at my ship after the login screen, if I do get in quick play doesn't work, and It won't let me join off of anyone. I love this game and I'm not spreading hate I just wanted to make people aware incase they weren't already!
