Helldivers 2: “Loadout Reset” bug explained and possible fixes

Helldivers 2 players are encountering a new performance bug that resets their characters' loadouts in the game. This glitch is making the game act like you have not played it before, and you are forced to reset your character's loadout and their voice all over again.

Some players have even pointed out that their titles and armor were also getting reset. They have had to re-customize a lot of things about their character from scratch.

This seems to be one of the more annoying bugs in the shooter right now, and a fair number of players have faced it.

The Loadout Reset bug started with Helldivers 2 patch 1.000.102, which was released on March 12, 2024. The error is not platform-specific; both PC and PS5 users have encountered it.

According to some community members, when the bug occurs, your character's loadout and the voice that you set for them get reset. However, some have also reported that these two are not the only things that are getting reset.

In some cases, you will also have your character’s armor and title reset. This will force you to remake a lot of the things that you have previously set for your character.
