Battlefield 2042: Heutiges Update bringt über 300 Fixes und neue Missionen

Battlefield 2042 bekommt bereits das dritte Update.

2021 neigt sich langsam dem Ende zu, und DICE versucht auf den letzten Metern Battlefield 2042 einen guten Start in das kommende Jahr zu bescheren. Schon heute wird das dritte Update für den Shooter veröffentlicht, und es ist das bislang größte. Mehr als 300 Bugs und Fehler sollen mit dem Patch behoben werden. Nebenbei gibt es auch Balancing-Optimierungen und Quality-of-Life-Verbesserungen für ein angenehmeres Spielerlebnis. In den kommenden Tagen soll noch ein kleineres Update folgen.

Das steckt im heutigen Battlefield 2042-Update

Battlefield 2042 ist noch nicht einmal zwei Wochen auf dem Markt und bekommt also schon den dritten Patch. Der erste war das obligatorische Day-1-Update, das unter anderem die übermächtigen Luftkissenboote anpasste. In der letzten Woche folgte dann Update 2, mit dem weitere Fahrzeuge einem Nerf unterzogen wurden und das Blooming einiger Waffen reduziert wurde.

Patch Nummer 3 kümmert sich in erster Linie um Bugs und Fehler. Wie dem offiziellen Blog-Post zu entnehmen ist, soll sich das Gameplay nach dem Download deutlich flüssiger anfühlen. Hierfür wurden Spawns gefixt und optische Glitches sowie Probleme mit der Kollision beseitigt. Natürlich werden mit den Waffen, Fahrzeugen und Specialists auch wieder die Hauptaspekte einer jeden Battlefield-Schlacht weiter optimiert.

Neue Missionen kommen: Season 1 von Battlefield 2042 geht bekanntlich erst 2022 an den Start. Bis es soweit ist, möchte DICE uns mit neuen Missionen bei der Stange halten. Jeweils drei dieser speziellen Challenges soll es alle sieben Tage geben – los geht es in der kommenden Woche. Als Belohnung winken XP und besondere kosmetische Items.

Der Portal-Modus erfährt eine ganze Liste an Optimierungen:
