Helldivers 2 update 7.2.2 adjusts AMW-20 APEX and SG-22 Bushwacker

Arrowhead released update 7.2.2 for Helldivers 2, which includes changes to several weapons. The developer says the AMW-20 APEX now has a demolition strength of 30 and a reduced caliber of 20 to lower damage dropoff over long distances. The armory now correctly displays the armor penetration for both the AMW-20 APEX and the LAS-44 NOVA as Anti-Tank.

The developer also issued a correction for the SG-22 Bushwacker because previous patch changes were calculated incorrectly. The updated values increase the Bushwacker's damage from 405 to 486 and its durable damage from 108 to 135.

The update fixes a rare crash on boot and a rare renderer crash on PC and Xbox. Arrowhead also removed two music tracks, though they say this does not affect gameplay.
