Wie bereits mehrfach berichtet, sollte im April das erste wirklich große Update für Battlefield 2042 veröffentlicht werden. Letztlich kaum verwunderlich, dass es nun soweit ist und das große Update für Battlefield 2042 vor der Tür steht. Bevor Update 4.0 ab dem heutigen Dienstag heruntergeladen werden kann, hat DICE die Community mit den offiziellen Patchnotes zum April Update für Battlefield 2042 versorgt.

Da DICE mittels des Updates über 400 Verbesserungen und Bugfixes ausrollen wird, fallen die Changenotes entsprechend umfangreicher aus als zu jedem anderen Battlefield 2042 Update seit dem Release im vergangenen November.

Die Kerninhalte des Updates in Kürze:

• VoIP-Funktionalität für Gruppen und Trupps.
• Scoreboard im End of Round Screen.
• Änderungen an den Waffenaufsätzen. Diese sollen sich nach dem Update einzigartig anfühlen und einen wirklichen Einfluss auf die Wahl der Ausrüstung und das Waffenverhalten haben.
• Balance-Anpassungen und aktualisierte Eigenschaften für die Spezialisten Rao und Paik sowie Verbesserungen an der Spezialfähigkeit von Sundance mit dem Schwerpunkt, dass ihre Anti-Panzer-Granaten effektiver gegen Ziele in ihrer unmittelbaren Umgebung sind und Sundance im Anflug mit dem Wingsuit nun besser wahrgenommen wird.
• Änderungen an der Fahrzeugbalance, wie z. B. eine leichtere Treffbarkeit der Passagiere des M5C Bolte und eine Verringerung der Leistung des Raketenwerfers.
• Problemlösung für Probleme, die das ADS nach dem Verlassen eines Fahrzeugs unmöglich machten.
• Weitere Problemlösung für Spieler, die in der Nähe von Objekten nicht wiederbelebt werden konnten.
• Verbesserte Ribbons und XP-Ereignisse, damit die Ribbons in allen Spielmodi leichter freizuschalten sind.
• Die Transparenz dieser Symbole auf dem HUD kann angepasst werden.

Update Termine 19. April 2022

DICE wird das Update 4.0 am 19. April 2022 um etwa 10:00 Uhr deutscher Zeit auf allen Plattformen veröffentlichen. Eine Downtime soll es laut DICE nicht geben. Nachdem das Update heruntergeladen worden ist, kann direkt gespielt werden.

Welche Änderungen im Detail vorgenommen werden erfahrt ihr nachfolgend in den kompletten Changenotes zum Battlefield 2042 April Update.

Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

VoIP

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is now available in Battlefield 2042. There are two voice chat channels to choose between: Party and Squad. Settings for VoIP can be adjusted via Options > Sound/Voice > Chat while in-game.

Scoreboard

In Update 3.3 we released the UI refresh for the Scoreboard. Following this update this UI refresh will now also be available during the End of Round screens.

Weapon Attachments

With Update 4.0 we’ve overhauled the behavior of many weapon attachments to ensure that their impact when customizing your weapons is unique, and noticeable. Previously, some attachments had effects that were too similar from others, and it was unclear what the impact on your weapons would be when switching between them.

We encourage you to experiment with the refreshed weapon attachments to see how they feel after the update, and you’ll be able to read the full set of changes further down the page.
