Developer DICE is readying to launch a major new update for Battlefield 2042, with the beleaguered shooter’s 4.0 release promising to deliver “400+” fixes and improvements when it arrives some time next week.
Although full patch notes won’t be available until next week’s launch, DICE community manager Kevin Johnson (thanks VGC) has shared some of the release’s key features on Twitter. Attachments will, for instance, receive an overhaul in Update 4.0, with DICE aiming to ensure all feel unique and have an impact on loadout choices and gunplay.
Additionally, XP for Support Actions and Teamplay has been balanced “to ensure teamwork remains king”, and there are balancing changes arriving for Vehicular Warfare in a bid to give Infantry/Vehicle counter play “some bite”.
