Let’s talk about the next set of updates coming to #Battlefield2042 and what to expect in the coming weeks
Here’s a thread with news on upcoming patches, Portal XP Changes, and updates on requested features like Scoreboard & Cross Platform VOIP
Update 3.2
Scheduled to go live tomorrow, this update delivers a handful of small fixes and improvements to the game focused around stability
We’ll have the complete set of update notes available to browse this evening
Update 3.3
Our next update after 3.2 arrives in mid to late February, and features a refreshed Scoreboard, alongside further changes that have been in the works since we returned after the Holidays
Scoreboard Refresh
In Update 3.3 we will refresh our existing Scoreboard UI with a new panel that showcases how players are stacking up across the server
Here’s your first look at our Work in Progress
Scoreboard will receive further updates beyond this refresh – this isn’t a one and done deal for us
Expect to see us iterate on this further once it’s live in game, and we look forward to your feedback once this new Scoreboard goes live in February
Matchmaking Preferences in All-Out Warfare and All Platform VOIP
These are both still on our radar. No updates on these two today but we wanted to reassure you all that these are still front of mind and we’ll have more to show and share on these topics further down the line
XP in Portal
Further to the changes made at the end of last year, we’ve got more changes set to go live with Update 3.2 tomorrow that will enable more servers and game types to progress on Mastery and Weekly Missions
Details on this will be posted here, later this afternoon
Game Performance
Our teams continue to analyse the data available to us, and develop further optimisations that enable the game to make best use of your hardware
In every update, we’ll be delivering changes big and small that aim to tackle the issues and improve your experience
Happy New Year!
We’re hard at work now that we’re back. We hope you’re all well, safe, and healthy Yellow heart
Stay tuned to us here for more updates and we’ll see you on the #Battlefield
Once the patch notes are out later, we’ll be sure to let our readers know ASAP. Hopefully, this is the start of DICE’s open communication with players, as I’ve discussed in-depth how bad it’s been so far.
Are you happy with some of the planned changes? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments below.
