      No-Pats,

      Last week we made Update #3 available to you which included a large set of changes to improve your gameplay experience. We wanted to get those changes in your hands as soon as possible, and now we are following up with this week’s update, as promised, filled with further fixes and balance changes.

      Update #3.1 arrives on December 9. Here is a short summary of key changes to expect:

      🔴Improvements to bullets hit registration consistency.
      🔴Balance changes for bullet dispersion and recoil
      🔴Further balance changes to Ground Vehicle 30mm, 40mm, and 57mm Cannons to reduce their effectiveness against infantry
      🔴A fix for a rare bug where a player could appear invisible to enemies
      🔴Fixes for several bugs related to Grenades and Launchers
      🔴Improvements to the menu flow for Xbox players to make it easier to opt-out of Cross-Play
      🔴Multiple audio improvements to enhance your overall sound experience, focused on clarity, distance, and directional perception
      🔴Update #3.1 is our last game update before the start of the holidays. That means our teams will take a break towards the end of this month and return in the new year with fresh eyes ready to go on the road to Season One. We’ll see you again in the new year where we’ll talk more about further changes and improvements you can expect for Battlefield 2042.

      🔴The full update notes are available below. We’ll keep you informed on the rollout of the update and what’s next over on the @BattlefieldComm Twitter account. Here you can also follow along with our tracking of Known Issues, and changes that we’re able to make in real-time.

      Happy Holidays,

      The Battlefield team

      Update 0.3.1

      Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

      General

      🔴Players that are not the Party Leader can now cancel while waiting in a queue
      🔴Xbox – Cross-Play can now be enabled/disabled in the Options menu on Xbox
      Your Sort settings will now be correctly remembered when refreshing the Battlefield: Portal Server Browser
      🔴Fixed an issue where loadouts would sometimes be empty on the spawn screen after joining a server, preventing weapon selection
      Made improvements to ensure Aim Assist is more consistent during console gameplay
      Ranger’s effective combat range and overall health has been decreased
      Audio

      🔴Made various tweaks to the overall audio experience to improve clarity, distance, and directional perception
      🔴Fixed an issue where soldiers would not always play indoor specific footsteps
      Weapons

      🔴Removed bounce from Underbarrel Grenades when firing at short distances
      40mm AP Grenades now properly damage vehicles
      🔴Fixed some weapons displaying wrong ammo counts for specific magazines
      DXR-1 and NTW-50 Bolt Action rifles reload animation increased by 0.2 seconds
      🔴Adjusted dispersion values for most weapons, which results in a faster dispersion decrease when tap firing or doing short bursts
      🔴Adjusted dispersion increases for most weapons. It now takes slightly longer for weapons to become overly inaccurate in sustained fire
      🔴Adjusted the recoil values to prevent over-aggressive recoil jumps for the AK24, LCMG, PKP-BP, SFAR-M GL, and PP-29
      🔴Improved hip-fire accuracy for all SMGs to make them better stand-out from other automatic weapon archetypes
      🔴LMG dispersion and recoil lowered to improve performance in sustained fire
      Additional improvements to recoil control for all weapons, more specifically automatic weapons.
      🔴Increased close range damage and consistency of the MCS-880 when using Buckshot Shell or Flechette Shells
      🔴Fixed a bug that caused bullets to be fired below the player’s aims for the SFAR-M GL and the K30
      Vehicles

      🔴Fixed a bug where vehicle weapons sometimes did not deal blast damage on a direct hit
      We’re reducing the Ground Vehicle by 30mm Cannon effectiveness versus infantry. It now overheats faster, has a slightly reduced rate of fire and blast damage, and increased fall off damage at distance rate of Fire 350 -> 330
      Heat Per Bullet 0.13 -> 0.14
      Heat Drop Per Second 0.5 -> 0.475
      Blast Damage 20 -> 18

      🔴Increased damage of Frag Grenades across game modes to deal 120 damage and guarantee a kill on armored players too
      🔴Reduced Frag and Incendiary Grenade max ammo count from 2 -> 1
      Prox Sensor

      🔴Lowered spotting radius from 30m -> 20m
      🔴Lowered uptime from 30s -> 14s
      🔴Lowered amount of Prox Sensor a player can carry and deploy from 2 -> 1
      Battlefield Hazard Zone
