Despite Arrowhead trying to fix it twice, Helldivers 2 still features a chaotic bug that lets you slide around like a snake, and "it's even more hilarious" after the latest update

Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead may have claimed to have removed a fan-favorite bug in its latest update after it previously slipped through the cracks despite another supposed fix, but it's still here and has been made even funnier as of yesterday's new patch.

For months now, Super Earth's finest soldiers have been able to employ an unintended movement option that's been lovingly dubbed the snake bug, allowing them to slide around on the ground after ragdolling because of a blast. At the start of last month, Arrowhead proclaimed that "despite it being the year of the snake," the bug was no more, but clearly, it was too slippery to be stopped because yesterday's patch notes once again state that the bug has been fixed "despite us trying to fix this previously."
