Another thing that was dug up in patch 4.0 is a few UI/HUD portraits of the AI soldiers in BF2042! These were added to the client, which suggests that these bots might be able to join player squads in the future. Not only that, but it seems DICE is readying the Breakaway map to include a blizzard weather effect, as a file for it has been spotted in patch 4.0 too!

Two small notes regarding #Battlefield2042 Patch 4.0:

As is with every datamined info for any game, there is no guarantee that we’ll see these make their way into the game, and could be placeholder files or the like. THat said, it wouldn’t make sense for DICE to put these in patch 4.0 unless they were planning on using ’em, no?
