BF2042 1.28 Patch Notes (Season 4) – February 28, 2023

New Map: Flashpoint
Head towards The Richtersveld, an arid, rocky South African battlefield where the conflict is about to get up-close and personal with our latest location, Flashpoint.

New Specialist: Camila “Blasco”
Our final Specialist enters the fray with Season 4: Eleventh Hour.

Specialty – X6-Infiltration Device – Placing this device on the ground creates a dead zone in the immediate area, interfering with enemy spotting technology and preventing lock-ons from hostile rocket ordnance. This handy device will also spot and reveal enemy devices within the immediate dead zone range, allowing you to quickly clean out any enemy interference around your objective.

Trait – Ambush Expert – Utilizing her reconnaissance training, Blasco is able to move swiftly past motion-based Gadgets such as Claymores, T-UGS, or Proximity Sensors and larger equipment like Boris’ SG-36 Sentry Gun.

New Vehicle: CAV-Brawler
The CAV-Brawler is a IFV-type vehicle that is capable of traversing through small spaces while providing ample protection for your squadmates within it.

Along with its high maneuverability, the main purpose of this vehicle is as a squad spawner, as it easily navigates through the battlefield towards control points and objectives, your squad has the ability to spawn on this vehicle and actively join you in the push.

New Weapons: AC9 SMG, RM68 Assault Rifle, RPT-31 LMG and Super 500 Shotgun

Season 4: Eleventh Hour offers an array of weaponry capable of tackling any scenario you may come across as you battle it out on the rocky, industrial areas of Flashpoint.

 

AC9 SMG
An extremely lightweight submachine gun that is well-crafted for fast hipfire exchanges. With its improved receiver ergonomics this ambidextrous small submachine gun is more controllable than its high rate of fire would have you believe.

RM68 Assault Rifle
Perfect for close-quarter battles of Flashpoint, the RM68 is a next-gen assault rifle with a distinct and suppressive design. The built-in silencer offers counter-weight for improved stability and recoil control. Take full advantage of the integrated canted sights to adapt to every situation in front of you.

RPT-31 LMG
If an SMG or Assault Rifle isn’t your cup of tea when it comes to weaponry, then the new RPT-31 prototype LMG might be what you’re looking for. While it has a low rate-of-fire, the rounds are heavy hitting with a high bullet speed. This LMG also comes with a new “flip-scope” attachment that allows you to tackle encounters as you see fit.

 

Super 500 Shotgun
Destined to become a favorite with Recon Specialists – this high risk and high reward sidearm shotgun is perfect for short range encounters. Select this weapon for your sidearm slot and you’ll quickly find yourself dominating the battlefield as you breach those objectives.

 

 

New Gadget: SPH Explosive Launcher

If you’re looking for something more explosive, the SPH Explosive Launcher fires a sticky payload capable of attaching to players, vehicles and just about any other surface on the battlefield that will detonate after a short delay. Ideal for both destruction and anti-infantry play.

The SPH Explosive Launcher becomes available for the Assault Class as a selectable gadget and shoots up to two projectiles that are housed inside on casing before needing to reload.

 

New Vault Weapons: SVD and Type-88 LMG

Two iconic weapons from classic eras of old become available as Vault Weapons in the All-Out Warfare arsenal.

Battlefield 3 – SVD

The infamous SVD is a squad support weapon that juxtaposes long range with rapid and accurate semi-automatic fire.

Unlock Criteria:

• 100 Kills and Assists with the SVD (Portal) or SVK
• 50 Kills with Marksman Rifles at a distance of 100m or less

Battlefield 3 – Type-88 LMG

If you’re wanting even more bullets at your disposal, the Type-88 LMG is a light machine gun with a 200-round magazine strapped to it.

Unlock Criteria:

• 100 Kills and Assists with the Type 88 LMG (Portal) or M240B
• 10000 Damage Inflicted with LMGs

CHANGELOG

General Improvements

• The End of Round sequence now explains what will happen after this transition phase. For example, if you switch sides if you stay in the lobby. You’ll now also be presented with a prompt to confirm if you’d like to exit – this will help reduce accidental quitting to the main menu.
• Fixed issue where reaching Extraction Streak 3 in Hazard Zone with Crawford and Zain wouldn’t unlock the Risk Worth Taking Player Card Background
• Fixed an issue that would cause vehicle icons to flicker while the big map was open.
• Increasing the size of the minimap will no longer also increase the size of the icons.
• Added an option to allow customization of the scale of the minimap icons.
• Added an option for the scale of the minimap icons to scale with the view distance of the minimap (Enabled by Default).
• Fixed an issue that was causing the visuals of a ping to display incorrectly.
• Fixed an issue where the base circle VFX on a location ping was sometimes missing.

Battlefield Portal

• Portal – Battlefield 3 – Fixed an issue with the SMAW / RPG-7V2 where the rocket was deflected into the ground when the user was shooting into a fence.
• Portal – Battlefield 3 – Fixed an issue where the SFX for detonation was not functioning properly when using a C4 remote detonation.
• Custom Portal experiences that have PvP AI (but not PvE) and no other change than to the map list will have Ribbons XP enabled, Mastery Progression up to Tier 12 and Weekly Missions enabled instead of the usual Restricted XP.

Maps

Breakaway

• The Penguins have filled in a hole near B1 where players were unable to get out of if they had fallen victim to it. Pesky penguins.
• Fixed a visual issue with the billowing smoke from the two silos near the waste pools.

Kaleidoscope

• Fixed an issue where sector lines between Sectors D and C were overlapping while playing Conquest.

Stranded

• Fixed an issue where players were sometimes spawned within a container on FFA and Gun Master FFA modes.
• Fixed an issue where the cinematic camera during the intro would sometimes behave incorrectly on Conquest.

Spearhead

• Fixed an issue while playing Conquest Assault where a player was spawned OOB when trying to deploy on the “A” Capture Point.

Soldier

• Improved the consistency of Melee takedowns for standing and crouching soldiers.
• Improved prone behavior on steep slopes.
• Improved zipline behavior when a vehicle was parked near the same location as the zipline.
• Fixed an issue which would sometimes cause the camera to become stuck while using a ladder.
• Fixed an issue which was causing audio to play from the wrong direction while in a downed state.
• Fixed an issue that caused the icon of selected weapons to disappear when climbing a ladder.

Specialists

Casper

• Fixed an issue that caused Casper’s OVP-Recon Drone to be able to destroy certain map objects it wasn’t intended to.

Crawford

• Fixed an issue that resulted in no health bar being present while repairing Boris’ Sentry Gun and Ranger whilst playing as Crawford.

Dozer

• Fixed an issue that caused the throwing knife to generate a ricochet bullet when hitting Dozer’s Ballistic Shield

Falck

• Fixed an issue that caused shockwaves from explosions to interrupt Falck’s self-heal interaction.

Lis

• Reduced the maximum range of Lis’ G-84 TGM from 600m to 475m.
• Reduced the boost speed of Lis’ G-84 TGM from 150m/s to 110m/s.
• Tightened the turning angles of Lis’ G-84 TGM.
• Adjusted the input clamping when boosting with G-84 TGM in accordance to the new turning angles.
• Reduced the acceleration modifier when boosting with Lis G-84 TGM from 1.85x force to 1.15x force.

Dev Comment: With these adjustments we’re looking to push Lis into having a higher skill ceiling (more skill required to master) and also ease up on the vehicle player experience.

The turning adjustments introduced in this update will make it so the missile will be less agile, hindering its ability greatly to double-back on itself after an initial miss

The boost acceleration & speed reductions will now enable vehicle players more of a chance to react to an inbound missile.

Also we want players to have a clear target they wish to attack with the TGM before it has been fired which we saw was not the case in update 3.2.1, these turning changes combined with the boost acceleration, speed and max range reductions are targeted to address this.

Paik

• Fixed an issue that caused Paik to be unable to use her EMG-X Scanner in passenger seats

Zain

• Fixed an issue where the sound which would play when updating the airburst distance from Zains’ XM370A Airburst Rifle was being triggered in instances where it shouldn’t.

Gadgets

• Fixed an issue where the EMP Grenade did not disable some vehicular weaponry or trigger any visual VFX as intended.
• Fixed an issue where some Gadgets were able to hit enemy soldiers through autonomous gates
• Fixed an issue where using the T-UGS would cause unwanted screenshake.
• Fixed an issue where the SFX for the detonation remote on C5 would not play properly.
• The Assault will now be able to carry a maximum of two Med Pens. Upon spawn, you will still have one available to you.
• Fixed an issue with the M18 Claymore so that it has a forward facing explosion exclusively.
• The M18 Claymore will no longer be capable of destroying building walls, this is to bring it more in line with its intent
• Adjusted the AT Mine so that it blends into the terrain better.
• Fixed issue where damaging a player-operated Mounted Vulcan would result in receiving Vehicle Assist XP when a teammate destroyed it
• Location pings will no longer display when pinging a neutral Mounted Vulcan.

Vehicles

• Updated the rangefinder in vehicles to go to 100+ instead of 200+

AC-42

• The AC-42 will no longer clip through the screen when opening the Plus Menu.

MTAR-21

M416

What is new in Battlefield 2042 Patch 3.2.1? – February 10, 2023

Changelog

Gadgets

FGM-148 Javelin

• The FGM-148 Javelin can no longer lock onto the Tracer Dart while the dart is out of line of sight.

Tracer Dart Gun

• The Tracer Dart will now correctly drop in height dependent on the distance it has to travel.
• Reduced the projectile speed of the Tracer Dart from 500 m/s to 250 m/s.
• The uptime of the Tracer Dart will now last 12 seconds instead of 40 seconds.
  • Dev Comment: We’ve adjusted the trajectory and speed of the Tracer Dart to now offer a skill element to this gadget if you’re aiming to land shots from long range distances, if you wish to reliably designate targets from long distance the SOFLAM remains a tried and tested choice.

Gameplay Flow & Social Elements

• Unlock Descriptions will now correctly show for Class Badges on the reward screen after a match.
•  The description for Falck’s Combat Surgeon Trait now correctly states that she is able to revive faster, rather than revive to full health.

Soldier

• Fixed an issue where the time it took for firing when leaving sprint was much longer than expected with Assault Rifles.
• Fixed an issue where the auto deploy of the parachute did not function properly.
• The Assault Weapon Proficiency will no longer grant extra ammunition for Underbarrel Grenade Launchers.
• Fixed an issue that would cause projectiles to not deal damage correctly when Specialists are facing down.

Specialists

Angel

• Fixed an issue that would allow players to select any Gadget with any Specialist via Angel’s Loadout Crate.

Crawford – Mounted Vulcan

• Increased the health of Crawford’s Mounted Vulcan by 60%
  • Dev Comment: This change is to increase the survivability when up against direct gunfire. Grenades and Rocket Launchers will still cause it considerable damage.

• Mounted Vulcan now lasts 7 seconds from the moment it begins firing to reaching its overheating point.
• Players are no longer able to place down 4 Mounted Vulcans. One is enough!

Dozer

• You can no longer use Dozer’s SOB-8 Ballistic Shield while also using a parachute, or whilst prone.

Weapons

As part of the recent Update 3.2 we reduced the ADS time for Drum and Extended Magazines. We’re reverting that change in this update.

Your feedback to change these attachments suggested having slower reload times, or less overall ammo due to the reduced magazine count. These are very valid areas to look at, however we believe those two would not compensate for the greater increase in combat uptime that these attachments give you.

With a shorter magazine, you have to pick your fights while weaving in and out of combat against multiple enemies, prioritizing targets based on awareness or proximity. With larger magazines, such as the case with Drum and Extended Magazines, this overhead disappears as you have the luxury of less reloading and more ammo availability.

It’s very important for us to act upon your feedback, and we’ll continue to make adjustments for Drum and Extended Magazines in a later update.

Drum and Extended Magazines

• ADS draw rate has been reverted to pre-update 3.2 values. You’ll now notice that the draw rate is more immediate, and less weighted than before.

MTAR-21

• Adjusted the recoil of the MTAR-21 to be in line with other Assault Rifle weaponry.
• MTAR-21 damage increased up to 40m from 18 -> 22

PP-2000

• PP-2000 damage increased up to 50m from 22 -> 28

BF2042 1.26 Patch Notes (Update 3.1.3) 

What’s New?

• New Map: Spearhead

Spearhead is our latest CQC-focused map, nestled within the rocky formations of the Swedish wilderness you will find Nordvik’s manufacturing facilities, capable of manufacturing high-tech weaponry and components for weather machinery.

• New Specialist: Rasheed Zain

Specialty: XM370A

The XM370A is an Airburst Launcher that allows Zain to flush out enemies from around and over cover, becoming a situational area denial loadout. If you have some foes hiding behind cover and are giving you trouble, the XM370A is the go-to piece of hardware.

Trait: Perseverance

Perseverance allows for Zain to begin recovering health immediately upon taking out an enemy. This effect stops if Zain takes further damage.

• New Vehicle: EMKV90-TOR

Positioned at the forefront of cutting-edge technology, the EMKV90-TOR is a Rail Gun Destroyer Tank that is capable of entering alternate modes aimed at arising and responding to different combat situations.

• New Weapons: Rorsch Mk-4, NVK-P125, NVK-S22

Rorsch Mk-4

This weapon uses electromagnetic forces to launch projectiles at preposterous speeds.With powerful armor penetrating ammunition and requiring a short charge up time before each shot this versatile weapon can adapt itself to any situation and change its fire properties by quickly swapping the configuration of its under barrel mounted capacitors.

NVK-P125

With its unusual Bullpup configuration and its particularly high bullet speed this sidearm is perfect for engaging moving targets at medium distances without compromises, the perfect companion for any sharpshooter.

NVK-S22

Need a shotgun with tactical options? This dual-barreled semi-automatic weapon offers great destructive power in a compact and nimble package. Surprise your enemies and become the dominator of close-quarters combat.

• New Gadget: Throwing Knife

These deadly knives are used by masters of precision and timing and will deliver lethal damage for the one ready to meet the task at hand. You can pick them back up and try again.

• New Vault Weapons: XM8 LMG, A-91

Within our Season 3 Battle Pass we’ll be including XP Boosts, these are items placed on a set number of tiers which grant you an additional boost in XP for a certain period of time.

While these XP Boosts will be consumed as soon as you earn them, the timer will only count down while you are actively in a match. You can expect to receive your first XP Boost at Tier 18 of Season 3’s Battle Pass.

• New Battle Pass
• New Vehicle Categorization
• Ping System Rework

Bug Fixes

PING SYSTEM REWORK

The latest update made alterations to how the Ping System functions within Battlefield 2042, these changes aim to reduce the complexity of the existing ping system. Allowing for improvements to the pacing and accuracy of communication between teammates.

• Pressing the ping button once will no longer place a location ping, but instead check for targets such as soldiers, vehicles or objects near the point of that placed ping.
• If a threat is within the radius, it will immediately ping or spot that target for a duration of time.
• Spots are shared to the team, while pings are share to your squad.
• Pressing the ping button twice in a row will still place a danger ping in that location.
• Contextually, pinging targets no longer has any input delay.
• Repeatedly pressing the ping button without the system finding any targets will incur a short cooldown which will prevent spotting.

With these changes in place, we anticipate an increase in communication between your team while reducing out of date pings that may have been placed for a previous encounter.

General

• Setting Mouse Raw Input to Off in Settings will no longer disable mouse movement in-game

Maps

• Renewal – It was sometimes possible to deploy under the map in the first sector of the US HQ. This no longer happens
• Renewal – Fixed several areas on Conquest 64 that would incorrectly flag you as Out of Bounds

Weapons

• Firing continuously with weapons while using a controller would sometimes desync recoil between the client and the server. As a result, shots missed their target when they should have hit. This has been resolved
• The AC-42 sights are once again useable after equipping the UH-1 Smart 1.5x Scope in the default slot
• Fixed an issue where the mesh of the UH-1 Smart 1.5x Scope was missing from the AC-42
• Vault Weapons now properly apply recoil reduction when playing on Console
• The range of weapon draw speed for Vault Weapons now matches those of All-Out Warfare weaponry

  • This bug reappeared after we previously rolled out a fix. Please let us know if you continue to experience it after this update
• The M16A3 now has the correct Headshot Multiplier for Assault Rifles (2.15x)

Avancys
The Avancys was highly accurate, and coupled with its large magazine size meant it was too powerful during sustained fire. We have reduced its accuracy to compensate.

• Base Recoil increased 0.32 -> 0.36
• Dispersion Per Shot increased 0.03 -> 0.06

K30
The K30 is intended to be a close range SMG, and was too accurate at medium distance. Its accuracy at range has therefore been decreased.

• Min Dispersion Angle increased 0.15 -> 0.18
• Dispersion Per Shot increased 0.09 -> 0.15
• Dispersion Decrease Rate reduced 20 -> 4

MP9
The MP9 is also intended to be a close range SMG, and similar to the K30 received an accuracy penalty to reduce its effectiveness at medium distances.

• Dispersion Per Shot increased 0.06 -> 0.11
• Min Dispersion Angle increased 0.14 -> 0.17

M16A3
The M16A3 did not match the performance of other Assault Rifles. To compensate we have reduced its recoil and improved its accuracy during sustained fire.

• Base Recoil reduced 0.44 -> 0.36
• First Shot Recoil Multiplier reduced 1.45 -> 1.15
• Dispersion Per Shot on ADS reduced  0.13 -> 0.1

M60E4
The M60E4 did not match the performance of other LMGs. To compensate we have reduced its recoil and improved its accuracy during sustained fire.

• Base Recoil reduced 0.6 -> 0.54
• Dispersion per Shot on ADS reduced 0.22 -> 0.17
• Reduced Stepped Recoil Multiplier from 6 bullets to 4
