Major Updates for 1.1.1.5

  • Fixed an exploit allowing players to ascend and access unintended areas when standing on a XFGM-6D Recon Drone by hitting it with the Sledgehammer.
  • Fixed an issue where Lock-Guided Missiles did not get countered as expected when met with enemy countermeasures such as flares.
  • Fixed an issue where vehicles did not spawn correctly in Breakthrough and Conquest.
  • Fixed multiple Battle Royale issues affecting match flow, squad revives, and End of Round transitions.
  • Addressed progression, audio, and UI issues, improving overall clarity, reliability, and immersion.

PLAYER

  • Fixed an issue where dispersion would be higher than intended when going from sprint to firing in ADS.
  • Fixed an issue where dispersion would incorrectly scale with movement speed and always assume the player is moving at maximum movement speed for the stance.
  • Tuned landing animation to reduce excessive camera and weapon movement when aiming down sights, improving visual stability during and after landing.
  • This update also resolves instances where the ADS aim could be displaced when sliding.

VEHICLES

  • Fixed an issue where Lock-Guided Missiles did not get countered as expected when met with enemy countermeasures such as flares.

GADGETS

  • Fixed an exploit allowing players to ascend and access unintended areas when standing on the XFGM-6D Recon Drone by hitting it with the Sledgehammer.

MAPS & MODES

  • Fixed an issue where vehicles did not spawn correctly in Breakthrough and Conquest.
  • Fixed an issue where matches sometimes would start with all sectors and objectives active at the same time.
  • Fixed an issue in Strikepoint on Siege of Cairo where destruction did not reset at halftime.

UI & HUD

  • Fixed an issue in Vehicle Customisation locked Anti-Air Vehicle presets did not display their unlock criteria as intended.

PROGRESSION

  • Fixed an issue where the shotgun weapon challenge “Kill 5 Enemies With a Shotgun Without Reloading” did not complete properly.
  • Fixed an issue where progress for the “Engineer Specialist 3” Assignment did not save correctly.

PORTAL

  • Fixed an issue where “SpawnLoot” would not spawn Ammo or Armor.
  • Fixed an issue where players with community creations privileges set to Block could still access user-generated Community Experiences when the party leader hosted a match.

AUDIO

  • Fixed an issue where activating the BF PRO Radio Channel through the Commorose did not play any sound.

REDSEC

  • Fixed an issue where Battle Royale (Quads) matches did not end after the last team was eliminated.
  • Fixed an issue where being killed immediately after a mobile respawn completed could result in the squad being eliminated instead of reviving remaining teammates.
  • Fixed an issue where players could become stuck in a top-down view of the map after redeploying.
  • Fixed an issue where players retained their Second Chance after redeploying and did not transition to the End of Round screen after their next elimination.

UI & HUD

  • Fixed an issue where all squad members displayed the same highlighted stat on the Squad Placement screen.

PROGRESSION

  • Fixed an issue where the “Battle Royal Master Challenge 4” did not track progress correctly.
