The full list of weapon changes is visible here (changes from the current version are highlighted in Green for ease of access).

UI Changes:
  • Removed the 5.2 enemy acquisition icons when not looking directly at an enemy player, but who are inside your field of view – See the change here

  • Reduced the range at which you can see an enemy icon if directly aiming at the player is now 20m, down from 25m.

  • Reduced the angle at which we consider that you are looking directly at an enemy player is now 3°, down from 6° – See the change here

  • Improved soldier icon occlusion a to reduce the scenarios where an enemy icon could be visible, without the player being really visible on your screen – See the change here

  • Fixed some issues with smoke grenades not blocking enemy icons consistently – See the change here

  • Reduced the impact of wind on smoke grenades to ensure that the blocking of the icons is more consistent with the shape of the smoke grenade effect.

  • Fixed issues with squad member names not being properly displayed above their head in close range or when in a vehicle.

Performance

  • Fixed an issue that was causing stuttering issues during a scenario that involved getting kills with the LVCP vehicle

Stability

DICE has also mentioned that a server-side fix will be rolling out next week. Once we know more details about that, we’ll let our readers know.
