1st Update LIVE for Battlefield 2042

Here we go ! 1st update for the game is live and include :

  • Implemented server side upgrades that are targeted at reducing instances of rubber banding, often experienced in the later part of a round in All-Out Warfare modes.
  • Significantly reduced instances of stuttering when playing on Breakaway. If the silos are destroyed, it should no longer reduce performance on the server.
  • When looking at allies on your team, their names will now correctly display.
  • Adjusted the animations for Falck during the end of round sequence to ensure that she is displayed correctly.
  • Updated a skin earnable for Boris via mastery progression with a new name: Gator.
  • Ensured that TDM rounds in Battlefield Portal always start with random deploy set as active. We observed that this sometimes wasn’t active when moving from round to round, but have now fixed this.
  • Applied a set of measures that ensure the correct number of AI spawn in custom Battlefield Portal modes using the Free for All preset.
  • PC only - Enabled Specialist selection in Hazard Zone via mouse interaction, removing the need to lock in your selection with the spacebar.
  • Fixed a rare occurrence in Hazard Zone that would sometimes cause the end of round flow to not activate correctly, ensuring that the correct amount of bonus XP was awarded.
  • Repaired an issue found in Hazard Zone that could cause players to be shown on the map when they were not visible, or spotted.
  • Provided a fix for Hazard Zone players who were not seeing their Extraction Streaks updating correctly.

Battlefield d042 is getting two more bigger patches over the next 30 days, so before the end of the year. No dates for either of the two patches were given, but the first should include various fixes to issues reported during early access. The other is going to be a bigger "more substantial" update.
