long awaited Battlefield 2042 The patch originally scheduled for February is finally here. The patch was released this morning on all platforms, but it probably won’t get you back into the game.
3.3 is an update that provides the first iteration of the game scoreboard. The scoreboard was first shown in January and has been slightly updated.
Mainly, the design now includes player death, which is in a way the most requested addition by players. The existing match overview panel continues, but now finds a new, cleaner home page on the left side of the page.
DICE said further updates to the scoreboard are in the works, including being available at the end of the round.
Another major addition in today’s patch is the staunchly exclusive Legendary Bundle, a slew of cosmetic items for Ultimate/Gold Edition owners, and the game’s Season Pass. The bundle arrives later today as compensation for the game’s first season delay — still no date.
Looking ahead, DICE said a larger update is currently planned for sometime in early April. This will add VOIP between squads, more updates to the scoreboard, and a bunch of balance tweaks to weapons and vehicles. The developers also say that we can expect a “complete overhaul of the attachment behavior of infantry weapons”.
