battlefield 5 update

As expected, the big Battlefield 5 update 1.11 patch has now been deployed by DICE, and it includes a host of fixes, though don’t expect any new content.

According to DICE, this is a smaller quality-of-life update since the studio wanted to address certain issues first and foremost, which includes the flickering issue on squad deployment. Clocking in at just 461MB on the PS4, the Battlefield 5 Lightning Strikes update #4 patch notes are below.

Vehicles

• Fixed the inconsistency between the length of the visual effect of the Churchill Crocodile
tank’s flamethrower when viewing it in third person versus first person.

Weapons, Gadgets, and Specializations
• Fixed the M1907 SF Recoil Buffer Specialization which was previously not working.
• The ZK-383 and Selbstlader 1916 no longer have the wrong zoom level with some sights
when using the Fast ADS movement Specialization.
• Tweaked shotgun balance. We found that shotguns were underperforming compared to
close-range SMGs. The changes to damage drop-off and pellet damage listed below make
shotguns perform more consistently in close quarters and give them a slightly longer optimal
range.
o Increased damage drop-off start distance for buckshot and slug ammo by 1 m.
o 12g Automatic and M1897: Increased buckshot maximum pellet damage from 5 to
7.2.
o M30 Drilling: Increased buckshot maximum pellet damage from 5 to 6.3.

Maps and Modes
• Practice Range: Fixed a bug where players would get stuck when using the “Redeploy” or
“Restart Practice Range” function.
• Combined Arms: On Hot Pursuit, the correct number of soldiers needed to advance the
objective are now spawned.
• War Stories: Players should no longer run into a freeze on The Last Tiger during the section
Reach German Forward Base.
• Fixed the controller vibration function that wouldn’t properly work on some maps while
playing Grand Operations.

UI/HUD/Options/Assignments
• Fixed the flickering issue that could happen on the squad redeploy screen.
• All subtitles in the Combined Arms intro are now triggering correctly.
• Leveling from level 49 to level 50 now properly shows the correct level on the End of Round
screen.
• Further fixes for the End of Round Company Coin counter. This should hopefully show the
correct value for all players.

Stability
• Multiple crash fixes and stability improvements.

PC-Specific Improvements
• Fixed a crash that could happen when players changed the resolution multiple times in a row
while DLSS is enabled.
• DLSS has been disabled when using DX11 due to stability issues.

Xbox One-Specific Improvements
• Fixed an issue where shotguns dealt less damage than intended.

PlayStation® 4-Specific Improvements
• Fixed an issue where shotguns dealt less damage than intended.
• If the player happens to remove the network cable from the console during the map loading
screen, they will once again be able to connect to EA Online without having to restart the
game.
