The Battlefield 2042 4.0 update, which was announced to fix more than 400 bugs, has finally arrived. The multiplayer war game set in the near future has attracted attention in recent weeks with declining player numbers.
With the big update coming this week, DICE hopes to lure its players back onto the battlefield. While the update comes with a big feature that is promised, a serious mistake remains unmissable.
What does the Battlefield 2042 4.0 update include?
As is often the case with multiplayer games, battlefield 2042 is where players turn to apps like Discord as one of the easy ways to communicate between them. Dice’s subsequent attention-grabbing orientation announced that a Voice Chat would be added to the game in the early weeks of its release.
With the Battlefield 2042 4.0 update, this promise has been fulfilled. Players can now communicate with teammates in their Squads by voice through the game. The Scoreboard, which came with update 3.3, is now visible at the end of the game.
The rocket launcher of the M5C Bolte, which we mentioned in the preview of the update recently, has been weakened and can now be more easily fired by players without vehicles. The improvements featured on the map include reducing the number of vehicles. Sundace, Paik and Rao come up with detailed troubleshooting and improvements.
One of the problems that occurs with the update and is expected to be fixed in a short time is the shortage of blue screens in and out of menus and during the game. It’s especially dangerous for epilepsy patients.
General Patch Notes
- Balance adjustments such as updated qualifications for experts such as Rao and Paik
- Improvements to Sundance’s Expertise, focusing on making Anti-Armor Bombs more effective against targets in their immediate vicinity
- Vehicle balance changes such as easier targeting of M5C Bolte’s passengers and reduced missile launcher power
- Fixes for not being able to ads or animate players near objects after exiting a vehicle
- Improved Lanes and XP Events to make it easier to unlock between modes
Voice Chat
- VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) is now available in Battlefield 2042.
There are two voice chat channels to choose from: Party and Squad. VoIP settings can be adjusted through Options > Audio/Audio > Chat while in-game.
Weapon Add-ons
With Update 4.0, the behavior of many weapon add-ons has been overhauled to ensure that their effects are unique and noticeable when customizing your weapons. Previously, some add-ons had effects very similar to others, and it was unclear what the effect on your weapons would be when switching between them.
General Regulations
- Several improvements have been made to Kill Assists
- Damage Support improves consistency and clarity by triggering a lower damage threshold
- EMP Bomb now triggers Assists more reliably
- Assists can now be triggered when a teammate kills an enemy and someone is covered in the smoke you place.
- Fixed EMP effects in progress on the screen
- Fixed an issue where wearing a weapon add-on from the Show items menu would return full customization to defaults in some scenarios.
- Fixed an issue where the customization that the player saved would sometimes reset to defaults after joining a server
- Simplified key links for Chat and VoIP (Voice Chat)
- Gunner’s gun change is now done properly
- Added Airplane and Helicopter sensitivity settings to the options menu
