Trotz durchschnittlicher Kritiken war der Start von Battlefield 2042 für viele Spieler nicht gerade ideal. DICE hat damit begonnen, wichtige Probleme zu beheben, angefangen bei der Geschossverteilung. Das zweite große Update ist jetzt live und reduziert die Streuung der Kugeln für alle Waffen außer Schrotflinten. Bei der PP-29 wurde außerdem der vertikale Rückstoß erhöht, um sicherzustellen, dass sie außerhalb ihrer effektiven Reichweite nicht besser ist als andere Waffen.
Die Panzerung des LCAA Hovercrafts wurde angepasst, was es anfälliger für verschiedene Waffen macht, aber die Miniguns der Landfahrzeuge wurden generell abgeschwächt. Der Geschossschaden vor dem Schadensabfall ist von 18 auf 13 gesunken, die Schadensabfalldistanz wurde von 60 auf 40 reduziert und der Geschossschaden bei maximaler Abwurfdistanz beträgt jetzt 6. Ob es sich dabei um eine Überkorrektur handelt oder nicht, bleibt abzuwarten, aber die Dominanz der Hovercrafts dürfte dadurch auf jeden Fall abnehmen.
DICE plant für nächste Woche ein weiteres großes Update mit Verbesserungen an der Benutzeroberfläche, der Progression und dem Matchmaking, also bleibt dran.
