While various glitches continue to plague the recently-released Battlefield 2042, an impending patch is expected to address many of the game’s most serious problems.In an upcoming update for Battlefield 2042, many issues like as missing player loadouts, the inability to resurrect friends, and vehicle balance adjustments will be addressed. The next version of the first-person shooter franchise takes place in the near future, allowing players to take advantage of cutting-edge technology to take part in a global conflict in the process. While Battlefield 2042 was widely anticipated prior to release, a slew of technical faults during the game’s initial launch resulted in a slew of bad reviews for the game after its release.
Many of the technical flaws and performance concerns that have plagued Battlefield 2042 have been related to the game’s largely unfavourable reception from its player community. In the current state of affairs, it is one of the worst-reviewed games on Steam, and the number of bad reviews is expected to continue to rise unless a significant fix is released. Numerous difficulties, including frequent console crashes and stuttering frame rates, severe bullet spread and weapon bloom, erroneous weapon unlocks, as well as a general lack of graphical polish, are currently afflicting the game. Players frequently find themselves unable to respawn after death or to revive fallen friends in battle, which causes them a great deal of frustration and anger. The loadout glitch in Battlefield 2042 appears to have been particularly widespread, with the issue preventing players from selecting their pre-made loadouts during a match.
Battlefield Direct Communication detailed a number of the changes that will be implemented in the next patch for Battlefield 2042 in a series of Twitter posts. Despite the fact that the game’s list of complaints is fairly lengthy, this update aims to address many of the first-person shooter’s most glaring gameplay issues in particular. The fault that prevents players from reviving their teammates, as well as the difficulties that prohibit players from spawning back into a match, will hopefully be resolved in the near future. It is also expected that the infamous missing loadout glitch would be addressed in the update. The flying UAV-1 vehicle had previously been removed from the game for reasons of balance, but it is expected to be reinstated in the upcoming update. Finally, balance adjustments will be made to the LCAA Hovercraft and MD540 Nightbird aircraft, which will result in a reduction in the strength of their armour and weapons systems.
While many Battlefield 2042 players were understandably disappointed with the game’s first release, the game’s developer, DICE, looks to be making significant efforts to improve the status of the sci-fi shooter. On November 18, a day-one patch for Battlefield 2042 was made available, which addressed serious server connection issues that had been experienced by early players. As a result of this update, incidences of “rubber banding,” in which other players appeared to teleport around as a result of lag, were reduced. DICE has made improvements to the player name display as well as various animations, demonstrating its commitment to making improvements to the game in the foreseeable future.
Battlefield 2042’s awful state upon release has already tarnished the shooter’s image, yet it is possible that the game can be salvaged in some way. In order to solve the game’s plethora of flaws, DICE has already published a patch that improves server connectivity while also decreasing lag-related issues. Now that the developer has promised to address some of the most widely-discussed flaws, such as disappearing loadouts and the inability to spawn, the game should become far less frustrating for players. While these promised upgrades seem fantastic, only time will tell if DICE will be able to successfully restore Battlefield 2042’s tarnished reputation on the battlefield.
