Hi folks, Following last weeks 4.2 deployment, we're deploying a small update tomorrow, Tuesday 30th July, that will enable Marita, and set live our two new Elites. This update contains no other fixes, or changes to Battlefield V. These updates are anticipated to clock in at around the 500MB mark on Xbox One, and 300MB on PC. I'll update this post tomorrow confirming anticipated sizes for PlayStation 4. Deployment for this update will start in line with our usual schedule: PC - 1AM PT // 4AM ET // 9AM BST // 10AM CEST PS4 - 2AM PT // 5AM ET // 10AM BST // 11AM CEST Xbox - 3AM PT // 6AM ET // 11AM BST // 12PM CEST There will be no general downtime for this update, and once it's available for your platform you're encouraged to close any active session that you have, and attempt to relaunch the game in order to start downloading and installing. Servers with players connected who are running the older version will be able to complete their matches, and new servers on the newer version will be spun up as folks queue via Quickplay Matchmaking.Marita will then go live at 12PM CEST on all Platforms, and we will activate a Marita only playlist at this time. The playlist will rotate between 1 Round of Conquest, and 2 Rounds of Breakthrough (Attack/Defend) on this Map only. Marita will otherwise be included in the full rotations of Conquest, Breakthrough, and Team Deathmatch (appearing after Arras in Conquest, after Devastation in Breakthrough, and after Al Sundan on TDM) at this same time.Two hours after the map rotations are available, we'll set both Ilse and Norman live in the store.Starting on August 8th, we'll have a newer Marita playlist live for 32 Player modes that switches between Domination, Frontlines, and TDM.Known Issue - Through testing on Marita, we've discovered a minor issue whilst certain Weapon Skins are equipped in the Receiver slot. Under certain circumstances, an overly bright reflection from the Sun can cause an unintentional Glare effect that's present with Aiming Down Sight. This is most prominent when a reflective skin is applied (e.g. Gold Plated, White Tiger, Blued etc.), and can be lessened by switching to a different skin in your Receiver slot.Examples of the most extreme instances of this are shown below (under both of the maps weather conditions). Thanks otherwise for your feedback last week on the 4.2 Update. We're pleased to see that there are less instances of the Invisible Soldier issue, though we want to reduce this back down to a flat zero as soon as we're able too. Over the next few weeks I'll be working with the teams to identify and talk to you all some more about what else to expect in our 4.4 Update, and bring you back more information about Al Sundan on Conquest. Getting content out to you in a healthy state remains an important priority for us and as soon as I know more, I'll be back to talk with you all about it.A final note that we're really appreciative for all of the feedback you've provided to us on this updated version of Rush. It will be replaced tomorrow by the Marita only rotation, and we can now start to explore where we take the mode next. We were very keen to stick to the same three maps for this second outing, but with the heavily refreshed ruleset and newer behaviors vs. sticking with the way the mode was and just adding new maps. I'll be linking in with Kenturrac once he's back from his Vacation to share your feedback and talk about what extra changes we might want to make so that we can see about planing some more expansion to the mode. In August we'll be looking to reintroduce both Grind and Fortress in a similar fashion.Enjoy Marita! Adam FreemanBattlefield Community ManagerTwitter: @PartWelsh (Source) /Atic

Hello, Battlefield™ V* players, and welcome to the June update!This is a larger update that adds content for Tides of War and the Armory, as well as several quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes. The most noteworthy of our issue fixes are those addressing performance when firing or getting fired at, which in some cases could cause frame spikes. We’re bringing tweaks to weapons, vehicles, and soldier behavior, too.The full notes are listed below. You can also jump into the notes on the Battlefield™ Forums and Reddit to join the discussion and keep the feedback coming.VEHICLE FIXES Airplane engine sounds no longer play repeatedly during flybys. Fixed an issue where the Churchill Crocodile turret could be disabled and was unable to be repaired. The FlaK 38 no longer scores points from glancing blows against an unmanned Sd.kfz 251. Fixed a bug that allowed players to spot enemies with stationary weapons. Added the new cooking destruction animation to the Churchill Crocodile reinforcement tank. Squad leaders are now able to give squad orders while in the bottom gunner seat in the JU-88 C as well as the flamethrower/front gunner seat in the Churchill Crocodile. Fixed an issue with the visual dust effect on some moving tanks. The Pak40 and QF 6-pounder anti-tank stationary weapons will no longer automatically reload while the player is in zoomed mode. WEAPON, GADGET, AND SPECIALIZATION FIXES Changed the Boys AT rifle magazine to contain five (plus one) bullets. A Boys AT rifle with a medium range scope now correctly shows scope glint. Bipods now deploy and undeploy with better response. Previously, the game checked whether the bipod should deploy or undeploy every 0.3 seconds. That is now every 0.1 seconds. Medical and Ammo Crates Players that have selected the Medical Crate or the Ammo Crate can now be seen holding it in one hand when viewed in third person. Adjusted the Medical Crate’s healing radius to four meters when deployed and carried. The Medical Crate owner is now awarded healing score when the crate’s aura heals friendly players. When deployed or selected, the Ammo Crate now also resupplies your teammates’ primary and secondary ammo within a four-meter radius. It also gives score for it, similar to the Medical Crate. The Ammo Crate owner earns resupply score when the crate’s aura resupplies friendly players. Ammo and Medical Crates now collide with vehicles. This means the crates can be placed on top of vehicles and will remain in place when driving around (in other words: the heal-mobile has returned)! AP Mines Explosion delay after activation has been increased to one second from 0.7 second. Activation radius has been increased by 20%. Blast radius size has been increased to seven meters from six meters to align with activation delay. Max damage in blast radius has been increased to 1.5 meters from one meter to align with activation delay. The explosion blast now occurs within an upwards facing half sphere that spawns 0.8 meters above the ground instead of a full radius. Players can now avoid blast damage from the AP Mine if they manage to go prone in time. Going from sprinting to prone is less likely to allow the player to survive, as the transition is longer than a simple stand to prone transition. Max amount of placeable AP Mines has been reduced to two from three. Minimum distance between deployed AP Mines has been increased to 3.6 meters (from 0.7 meters). Deployed AP Mines are now unspawned one second after the player dies and moves to the spawn screen or parrot cam. Moving while prone or crouched (but not crouch-sprinting) will no longer trigger the AP Mine in some scenarios. PIAT One-shot-kill radius against infantry has been reduced to 0.25 meters. Splash damage now deals a minimum of 55 damage against infantry up to three meters. Rifle Grenade Launcher Maximum blast damage reduced to 80 from 100. Blast radius increased to five meters from four meters. Quick-thinking players can now throw back the weapon’s grenade (similar to regular Frag Grenades). Good luck with that! The grenade projectile is now also represented as a grenade icon on the battlefield, just like the Frag Grenade is. AT Grenade Pistol The damage on impact against infantry has been lowered from 100 to 98. Other Weapon Fixes The MG34 now applies skins properly on the magazine if the Double Drum Magazine Specialization is selected. Improved the hitbox on Incendiary Grenades to better match the visual effect. Fixed the missing reload animation for the Krag-Jörgensen. Fixed an issue where the firing of the Flare Gun would be delayed after a reload. SOLDIER FIXES Players are no longer able to enter a bleed out state when getting killed outside of the combat area. Improved the behavior of exiting the gunner seat of a tank while the vehicle is upside down, reducing the risk of falling below the ground. Adjusted how fast the explosion detection happens when moving to another stance. This should make for a more consistent experience relative to what is happening in first person. Fixed issues where the detection of explosions and incendiary damage on soldiers would be larger than the size of the soldier in multiple stances. Increased consistency on soldier accelerations. Increased distance at which downed players can be notified of incoming Medics (that have confirmed that they’re en route) from 25 meters to 50 meters. 25 meters is still the max for nearby Medics. Players can bleed out faster in the man down state: Bleed out timer speed multiplier has been increased from 2.67x to 3.2x. This means players can bleed out in 2.5 seconds instead of 3.5 seconds. Players can hold on for longer in the man down state: Hold-on timer speed multiplier has been increased from 2.67x to 3.2x. This means players can hold on for 25.6 seconds instead of 21.33 seconds. Manual leaning can now be used in Firestorm. MAP AND MODE FIXES Fixed an issue which caused the “near end of round” music to play during the entire round. Firestorm: Recently, the Excavation Site in the southwest mountains, previously deemed to be insignificant, has been the scene of feverish activity, and a large dome-like structure now covers the entire site. Large quantities of material and machinery continues to be transported to the site daily. Whatever is being built does not yet appear to be operational. Firestorm: Fixed a bug that was causing graphical artifacts on the world geometry over longer distances while being in the airplane. Firestorm: Fixed a bug that would enable spotting right after jumping out of an airplane. Firestorm: Player-selected weapon skins are now applied to weapons found. Firestorm: The Commando Carbine, VGO, and Lahti-Saloranta M/26 can now be found on Halvøy. Firestorm: Ammo and health interaction icons at a distance have been added. Squad Conquest on Fjell 652: Removed spawn points that were placed out of the combat area. Squad Conquest on Fjell 652: Made the ladder on the British side indestructible. Arras: A bunch of stationary MGs were unintentionally pre-built. This has been fixed. Frontlines/Airborne/Rush: Arming and disarming the objectives correctly plays the animation again. Frontlines/Airborne/Rush: Removed the falsely applied input restrictions while arming and disarming. This means the player can change stances while arming and disarming the bomb. Frontlines/Airborne/Rush: Removed the fire barrels from the Mcom objectives. (Yeah, those weren’t cleverly placed.) Frontlines/Rush: Adjusted the arm and disarm times so they reflect the settings from Battlefield™ 3. Decreased the arm time from four seconds to 2.5 seconds. Set the disarm time to five seconds. Previously, the length varied between five and ten seconds. Frontlines/Rush: Adjusted the bomb fuse times so they reflect the settings from Battlefield 3. Decreased the fuse time from 30 seconds to 25 seconds. Frontlines/Rush: Adjusted the arm and disarm interaction radius to be appropriate for the objective size (big radius for the artillery cannon, small radius for the Mcom). This means the player can’t arm or disarm the Mcom from eight meters away anymore. Rush: Removed the artillery call-in interactions for defenders from the Rush objectives, since artillery reinforcements are now present. Team Deathmatch: Rebuilt the layout on Aerodrome, Devastation, and Fjell 652. Team Deathmatch: Rebuilt the size of the layout on Narvik. Frontlines: Changed the “locked objective” design a bit. It now shows the next flag immediately but with a lock icon above it that goes away when it’s available for capture. Frontlines: Changed the flag capture times to promote more combat and less running and made them all more similar. Three-flag layout – Flag capture time increased from 60 seconds to 75 seconds. Five-flag layout – Flag capture time increased from 45 seconds to 60 seconds. Seven-flag layout – Flag capture time increased from 30 seconds to 50 seconds. Frontlines: The game mode timer doesn’t pause and un-pause during the round anymore. TEAM DEATHMATCH FIXESAfter looking at Team Deathmatch, we’ve made the decision to change the layouts on a few maps. The goal is to increase intensity and give players a more consistent experience by reducing the size of combat areas and focusing on specific map locations.We’re very interested to hear your feedback on these changes and whether you prefer the new or old layouts.AerodromeThe first map we wanted to change in Team Deathmatch was Aerodrome. The old layout had interesting areas, but it was a bit unfocused and often ended up with players running back and forth, not finding fights. The new layout revolves more closely around the hangar.DevastationDevastation had the biggest Team Deathmatch layout. We’ve decided to reduce it as we want Devastation to embrace its close-quarter flavor. The new layout takes place in the run-down sections at the mall. This should mean fast-paced infantry mayhem!Fjell 652With the new layout of this map, we center around the village. The old design saw much of the fighting happening in the open, between points of interest. With this new approach, the fights should become more interesting and fast-paced.NarvikThis vista had a good Team Deathmatch design, but it was slightly too big and made some of the spawns frustrating. We have removed the southern part of this layout to create a more intense experience.FRONTLINES FIXESFor this patch, we’ve also looked at Frontlines. It’s one of our more tactical medium-scale modes, bringing very interesting and dynamic rounds as teams shift between attacking and defending. Many of you have voiced concerns and feedback about the mode (you know who you are), which has been very helpful.We’ve gone over the mode and identified these areas that we wanted to improve with this patch: Round length Objective “ping-pong” Accessibility Vehicle spawning Let’s go over them in detail.Round LengthPreviously, the Frontlines game mode timer was paused during shifts between objectives. We’ve determined that the massive variance of average round timer (and how much you can trust the HUD’s timer) isn’t worth it, and the pause function has been removed. This was originally added to make sure the round wouldn’t end during a transition.Objective “Ping-Pong”Some maps have had quite large distances between flags. Combined with a relatively short capture timer, this has created scenarios where an advancing team isn’t able to get to the next objective before it’s been captured by the defenders. We’ve tried to reduce this by adjusting some layouts, by improving the accessibility, and by increasing and normalizing capture times. The latter used to vary a lot depending on how many flags the map had, but that has been toned down.Capture times have changed like this: Three flags: from 60 seconds to 75 seconds Five flags: from 45 seconds to 60 seconds Seven flags: from 30 seconds to 50 seconds AccessibilityFrontlines has had some problems with understandability. A lot of that is related to knowing where you should be at any given time – and that in turn is related to the “locked objective” mechanic. When a flag is captured in Frontlines, the next flag in order appears with a lock timer over it, and when it expires, the flag is activated. This mechanic is, however, unique to Frontlines and can be hard to understand for newbies.With this update, we’re changing the mechanic. When one flag is captured, the next is immediately activated and visible, and the lock icon appears next to it instead. You can go to the flag as usual, but you cannot start capturing it before the lock has disappeared. Hopefully that will lead to new players advancing on the next objective even if they do not yet fully understand the rules of Frontlines.Vehicle SpawningOn larger maps, spawning in a tank meant you set yourself up for a potentially very long drive. We’ve now added movable tank spawn positions, which means that you should spawn closer to where the infantry spawns.UI, HUD, OPTIONS, ASSIGNMENTS, AND OTHER FIXES Platoon emblems are now properly equipped to weapons when applied. Corrected the requirements for the LS/26 Proficiency V and VI assignments. Fixed a bug that stopped players from spawning in a land vehicle after having used the Staghound. Improved the function of when a squad leader cancels a matchmaking instance. Previously, it wouldn’t always be applied to squad mates. The Flakpanzer IV and Panzer 38T now show the correct number of seats on the “select vehicle” screen in the Company menu. Fixed an issue that would render most of the screen as black, both on the deploy screen and when spawning at the start of a match. The stationary MG on Combined Arms now shows the correct icon in the kill log. Fixed an issue that would sometimes hinder a player from rejoining a server that they previously had gotten kicked from due to being idle. Increased the distance at which downed players can be notified of incoming medics from 25 meters to 50 meters. STABILITY FIXES Made improvements to fix sudden frame drops occurring when firing a stationary cannon, or when getting shot while playing Firestorm. Made general stability improvements. XBOX ONE-SPECIFIC FIXES Added a manual lean toggle/hold option. PLAYSTATION® 4-SPECIFIC FIXES Added a manual lean toggle/hold option.

Hi folks, This update targets fixes for errant issues identified after the release of Junes mid-month update. This follows the release of a sequence of Hotfixes designed to address stability and performance issues, which continue to be a priority for the team for future updates. In this update we’ve taken positive steps towards removing instances of the ‘Invisible Soldier’. We believe that the extreme instances of this issue have been stamped out, though we’ll be monitoring for any lingering issues. Further improvements have also been mode to performance, specifically when tanks are firing at infantry which would previously result in performance spikes . Alongside that, we’ve also reviewed the performance of the P08 Carbine, and made some changes that should improve the effectiveness of the weapon, coupled with a fix that now allows for Specializations to be reset once players have obtained Weapon Rank 4. Additional fixes have been detailed below in full. Our next major update (4.4) is currently scheduled to release at the end of August, and a first look at some of the new content and fixes for on going issues are also listed below. We’ll otherwise have a small update out early next week to enable Marita. Adam FreemanBattlefield Community ManagerTwitter: @PartWelsh What’s New? We have reduced the recoil, and increased the muzzle velocity for the P08 Carbine in a bid to improve its effectiveness Kills in Firestorm are now awarded if the enemy player disconnects during the downed state What’s Changed? Fixes targeted at removing extreme instances of Invisible Soldiers Specializations are now able to be reset on the P08 Carbine The game will no longer stutter when killing enemies with tanks Removed an unintended suppression effect that was applying to infantry soldiers when a tank fires it’s main cannon The screen will no longer turn black when firing stationary cannons The Arras sights on the Lewis gun now displays correctly when using extended mags Rate Of Fire for the MKVI Revolver has also been reduced to 180RPM, from 200RPM The correct crosshair now shows for the Mosquito FB MKVI on all load-outs The Company will now display the correct amount of bombs for the JU-88 Players trying to spawn into airplanes should no longer get stuck on the deploy screen What’s being worked on for Update 4.4? Additional fixes are also targeted to improve performance and stability across all platforms New Maps: Lofoten Islands and Provence Increase in Max Rank to 500 Updates to Fortress Mode New Weapons - In preparation for subsequent Tides of War Rewards (Panzerbüchse 39, Breda M1935, C96 Pistol Carbine) Fixes for desynced top-gunner hitbox on certain Vehicles Fixes for desynced soldier hitbox known to occur when reviving or vaulting Our Updates may change as we listen to community feedback and continue developing and evolving our Live Service & Content.

Hey folks,Later today, I’ll be posting our 4.6 update notes. Prior to that, I wanted to set some expectations for the content previously shared for Chapter 4, and give you some insight on what to expect with this update.Update 4.6 - This launches tomorrow. We’ve seen positive results on the top 3 Issues that we’ve been tracking since the launch of 4.4, and we’re confident that we’ll be seeing a resolution to the High Ping, and Firestorm Loot issues that have been affecting players this month. Big thanks for your patience whilst we got those resolved - there’s tons of other fixes and improvements in this months update so check back later today for the full notes.Al Sundan - No update is complete without some Al Sundan. This map will go live on Conquest and Breakthrough following the release of this weeks Update on all three platforms.Private Games - Our September update will not enable Private Games as we had hoped. It’s absolutely coming to Battlefield V but we have slowed our progress here in order to keep our focus on fixing issues, and ensuring that you're receiving the right standard of quality with each update. Our next Blog from the development team will be detailing the full feature set that we’re expecting with the first release of Private Games. This feature is now planned to release during Chapter 5.Battlefest - It’s coming back for the lead up to Pacific, and will feature in Game Challenges that will allow Players to unlock the Trench Carbine, the Madsen MG, as well as other rewards that we’ll be detailing closer to the start of Battlefest.Firestorm Loot Changes/Respawn Mechanic - In blogs published after EA Play, we said that we were working on introducing a radically different Looting system, as well as a Respawn Mechanic similar to the one found in Apex. These plans are presently on hold, and are being re-evaluated whilst we focus our efforts on restoring quality to the core of the Battlefield experience. Our update notes will be published here on the Subreddit in the next few hours. We'll have them live in the game, and on the Battlefield website tomorrow morning.Freeman // @ PartWelshSource: https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/d965u8/setting_fair_expectations_for_update_46/

Hi folks, In our 4.4 update, we’re introducing two brand new maps for Squad Conquest, and Team Deathmatch players - Lofoten Islands and Provence. These will be live during Tides of War Week 11, starting this Thursday, and you can learn more about both of these maps here. Alongside further improvements to stability, and fixes designed to reduce instances of Stuttering, this update will allow players to start on their journey towards Rank 500, and features revisions to Sniper Rifles, and SMGs. We’ve also revisited some of the changes made to AP mines in an earlier update, and adjusted the experience using Parachutes in regular Multiplayer modes across Battlefield V. You should now find that you have more control over the Parachute, and that it can be deployed much later than usual, restoring some of the experience found in past titles across the franchise. We’ve also restructured some of the file storage used by the game, which should allow us to make further improvements to Battlefield V in the future, however this change requires us to redeliver these files to you with this update, and so you will find that this update is larger than expected. On PC, you may find that Origin will have a longer than normal ‘Preparing’ phase, potentially as long as one hour. Players who are not restricted by Data Caps with your Internet Service Provider, and who benefit from fast download speeds may find it faster to uninstall, and reinstall Battlefield V with this update. If you encounter any issues during this process, please contact our teams at EA Help. Adam Freeman Battlefield Community ManagerTwitter: @PartWelsh What’s New? Two New Maps - Lofoten Islands and Provence (Available on Squad Conquest and Team Deathmatch) 2 New Weapons deploying across the next 2 weeks of Tides of War (Panzerbusche 39 and the Breda M1935 PG) Max Career Rank increase to 500 What’s Changed? Stability General stability improvements and crash fixes Resolved a performance issue that could occur when breaking enemies armor on Firestorm and cause Stuttering Maps and Modes Lofoten Islands - Available in Team Deathmatch and Squad Conquest Provence - Available in Team Deathmatch and Squad Conquest Marita - Fixed a window where players would get stuck when vaulting through it Marita - Improvements to spawn points Mercury - Now available on Squad Conquest Mercury - Fixed an issue that was changing the behavior of Smoke grenades on this map. Weapons We’ve performed a balanced pass across the damage of our Sniper Rifles, and the Recoil applied to our SMGs. Relative to the SMG’s specifically, we’ve switched out some of the Specialisations on Weapons which we believe would benefit from an alternative option. In these cases, you should find that your SMG’s may require a repec so double check your loadouts before deploying! Balance Changes Improved hipfire accuracy while jumping for sidearms, SMGs, pistol carbines, bolt action carbines and assault rifles. Improved hipfire accuracy while moving when using the Enhanced Grips specialization. Increased vertical recoil of all MMGs by 150% on the first shot, decreasing to the current value starting from the fifth shot. We have further changes coming to MMGs in our next update. Adjusted bullet penetration effectiveness of Bolt Action Sniper Rifles and Self Loading Rifles through materials Adjusted AT Rifle Damage through materials Increased melee damage of light melee weapons such as knives to 35 from 27 Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk I, Ross Rifle Mk III Increased maximum damage to 65 from 60 Increased minimum damage to 60 from 55 Gewehr M95/30 Increased minimum damage to 66 from 60 Kar98k Increased minimum damage to 66 from 60 Krag-Jorgensen Increased maximum damage to 60 from 54 Increased minimum damage to 60 from 54 EMP Reduced initial vertical recoil to 0.52 from 0.55 Reduced maximum vertical recoil to 0.6 from 0.73 Reduced horizontal recoil to 0.31 from 0.35 Reduced recoil pattern MAB38 Reduced initial vertical recoil to 0.5 from 0.55 Reduced maximum vertical recoil to 0.59 from 0.73 Reduced horizontal recoil to 0.267 from 0.3 with the Ported Barrel specialization Reduced recoil pattern Fixed horizontal recoil in hipfire being slightly too high MP28 Reduced maximum vertical recoil to 0.68 from 0.7 Reduced horizontal recoil to 0.66 from 0.75 and to 0.55 from 0.6 with the Ported Barrel specialization Reduced recoil pattern MP34 Replaced the Recoil Buffer specialization with Enhanced Grips Increased initial vertical recoil to 0.5 from 0.48 Reduced maximum vertical recoil to 0.5 from 0.63 Reduced horizontal recoil to 0.32 from 0.4 and to 0.17 from 0.2 with the Ported Barrel specialization Reduced recoil pattern slightly MP40 Increased initial vertical recoil to 0.48 from 0.42 Reduced maximum vertical recoil to 0.57 from 0.63 M1928A1 Reduced horizontal recoil to 0.77 from 0.9 Replaced the Ported Barrel specialization with Custom Stock Reduced recoil pattern slightly Suomi Reduced vertical recoil to 0.72 from 0.76 Reduced horizontal recoil to 0.8 from 0.93 Replaced the Ported Barrel specialization with Custom Stock Reduced recoil pattern slightly ZK383 Reduced initial vertical recoil to 0.4 from 0.42 Reduced maximum vertical recoil to 0.46 from 0.5 Reduced recoil pattern when using the Light Bolt specialization General Weapon and Gadget Changes Players can now throw back their own grenades Tweaked and improved the visual effects for hand grenade explosions AP Mine no longer unspawn after death AP mines can no longer be placed on barb wire Increased the volume the “Ping” sound effect on AP mines, to give players a better chance at taking cover once they have been triggered. AT Mines are now behaving correctly and applying damage consistent with prior updates Adjusted the deploy time of the AT Pistol to better match the animation. The PIAT and Panzerfaust now properly show its reload animation after many consecutive reloads Corrected the Kukri range for Combat Medics Corrected the MAB 38 Mastery VI completion requirements Fixed an issue with the S2-200 Mastery IV and Proficiency VI assignments. These will now track kills beyond 50 meters correctly Fixed an issue entering Aim Down Sights when resupplying and using an Ammo or Medical Pouch Fixed an issue that allowed high latency players to place another AP Mine very close to another AP mine they recently placed. Fixed an issue where AT Grenade Pistol did not deal enough damage to buildings Fixed an issue where AT Rifle APCR rounds would destroy entire building parts when only intended to deal extra damage against vehicles. Fixed the scope glint on the Boys AT Rifle with the medium range scope Fixed an issue that would cause projectiles that are not set to have ricochet properties to ricochet anyway at certain angles, which could cause less than intended damage. Fixed an issue where the ammo counter of the FlareGun was not visible. Fixed an issue where the crosshair would be locking the enemy's head when performing a melee quick attack for a duration longer than the melee attack itself. Fixed an issue that could cause the M30 Drilling to not have a visible barrel, if the weapon was picked up from the ground Fixed a rare bug that would make it not possible for a player to use reinforcements if they had been killed, and then revived while having a reinforcement selected from the reinforcement wheel Fixed the “Blued” muzzle not having the correct color on the EMP Fixed an issue that would cause some gold weapon pieces to not look like gold in-game Soldier The Parachute can now be opened a bit earlier when falling, this allows the players at full health to use the parachute for most lethal falls Players can now glide slightly more with the parachute, direction and aiming slightly affects parachute direction and descent speed in regular Multiplayer (Firestorm Parachuting will not be affected by this change) Increased the height at which lethal fall damage will occur when free falling and parachuting.

@EA_Atic Had also download issues, but waited. It got slow, from 12 mb/s to 400kb/s just FYI.

My game now crashes post update. It worked fine up until I put the update on it yesterday and now it crashes to desktop on start up. So your update to fix crashes effectively caused my game to crash entirely. Can’t even get to the menu screen.

Do a repair on the game files from the menu in Origin.

I did the repair and it crashes even earlier now. I cleared the system cache and it still crashes. I'm currently reinstalling the whole game
