Helldivers 2 Discord Announcement
Hello helldivers! We're aware of widespread login issues and are on it like Donkey Kong on barrels! Sorry for laggy response here, I was out for a while and missed it.
That was posted just after 4 AM PST/7 AM EST/11 AM GMT in the official Helldivers 2 Discord’s #announcements channel:
https://discord.com/channels/1102970375731691612/1102974265613099079
Whether that gets resolved any time soon is anyone’s guess, but there’s a couple of things you can do based on the error you get. Let’s dive into that now.
Helldivers 2 Skipping Queues
Connection issues aside, sometimes you can’t even get a foot in the door with Helldivers 2. When it’s standing room only at the party, this guide will help you squeeze through anyway.
Helldivers 2 Login Limit Reached Error Fix
This is an issue with the hard limits set on how many players can log-in to the servers of Helldivers 2 within any given minute. While the developers simply upped that limit the last time, it’s possible that the excitement and enthusiasm of the playerbase to liberate Umlaut sector for this week’s Major Order has raised the stakes a bit. Bypassing the issues hasn’t changed much, so try the article linked below:
Helldivers 2 Servers At Capacity Error Fix
Two distinct error messages that both have the same underlying issue: server queues are full. Even with the total player cap raised to 700K in recent weeks, some players may still encounter these errors during peak hours.
The latter guide especially applies to Helldivers 2 players on PS5, who are far more likely to see that error code.
Helldivers 2 Stuck On Ship Loading Screen
Helldivers 2 has two different scenarios involving being frozen on either the Ship screen, or in the Hellpod. Both of these are addressed in the same guide below.
Helldivers 2 Freeze Bug Fix
An in-game freeze bug this time, that locks Helldivers into place when picking up items on the battlefield. There are a number of solutions to this one, whether it’s to unfreeze your Helldiver, or better yet, not get frozen in the first place.
Helldivers 2 Defrosting Helldiver Fix
Now this one may finally be an actual log-in type error, and we’ve got several solutions for getting past it in the guide below.
Helldivers 2 Black Screen On Startup Fix
There’s nothing more daunting than seeing absolutely nothing on screen after booting up a game. It’s the gaming equivalent of staring into the abyss. Even still, fixes for this particular problem are in abundance in the following guide.
That’s every single troubleshooting guide we’ve done for Helldivers 2 over the past few weeks. Hopefully things stabilize to the point where the issues don’t happen as often, and to so many.
