So I figured out that if you add --delay_gameguard_init to the launch parameters, it will delay GameGuard from loading a little bit.
If you're fast enough on the draw, you can attach Cheat Engine, enable the features, and then close Cheat Engine before GameGuard has a chance to notice what happened. Then you can play as normal.
EDIT: Since February 21st, they updated the EXE to remove this parameter. You can download the original EXE and restore it. Instructions found here: viewtopic.php?p=337842#p337842
EDIT: Since March 7th, they updated the game to not allow the resurrected EXE method. I suggest instead using emoisback's version.dll proxy found here: [Link]
can someone tell me how to use the new cheat?
If you go to the post, it tells you on page 1 exactly how to use it. You should also read through the rest of the post too for valuable information about what to use and what not to use if you want to play without crashes.
Here's the version.dll modified w/ (all credits to to people with offsets and emoisback for the greatness)
All Stratagems
All Equipment
All Armor
Thanks, but what's the new password? "emoisback" isn't working.
sorry corrected it... islefox
Not sure if I'm doing anything wrong, but replacing the 'version.dll' in the game's main directory with the new one you provided doesn't let the game start at all - Steam will show "Running" then swap to "Play" after a few seconds or so. Will verify game files/all the files are in order

I mean I can video chat for a moment too to help quick.... Works for me on win11...

Same exact thing is happening on my end, I tried both putting next to the helldivers2.exe and replacing the one in ./data/game
EDIT: Steam shows launching then returns to PLAY after a moment. I don't see any popups and I'm not sure if this is a linux issue or the same one other people are running into. The game only fails to boot if I force it to use version.dll with "WINEDLLOVERRIDES="version=n,b""

auto address = Read<uint64_t>(GAME_DLL_ADDRESS + 0x16D8658);
auto speed_value = Read<float>(address + 0x244C);
wanted to share something for your help guys
its a speed value but for some reason if its set above 1.2 it yeets you out of the map... (its propably one of the values of velocity or something...)
or its the calculation im doing donno... if someone figures this out lemme know...
