Battlefield 6 Update for October 13 Increases Rush Tickets, Nerfs Shotguns
EA has rolled out a new Battlefield 6 update for October 13 across all platforms, targeting specific weapon tuning and gameplay adjustments. The update aims to improve balance and fix minor inconsistencies affecting player experience in the Rush game mode.
This is a sever-side update, so there is no client patch to download. Once players connect to the game’s servers, they will automatically receive the patch and its changes.
Note that this doesn’t fix or tweak the known issues DICE has outlined at launch. Chances are, a patch tackling a lot of those issues will be released soon, and it will be a client-side patch.
Battlefield 6 New Update Adds Rush Fixes and Weapon Adjustments
Here are the complete changes in today’s Battlefield 6 backend update:
- Increased ticket count for some maps on the Rush game mode to the intended amount of 100 (up from 75).
- Reduced the muzzle velocity of the M2010 ESR from 900 to 800 m/s.
- Reduced the muzzle velocity of the PSR from 750 to 720 m/s.
- Shotgun projectiles will now take drag into account.
And that’s all for this small backend update. It’s different from the larger, more content-heavy patches the game has received. For example, the Day One patch on October 10 was a massive download with over 200 changes to movement, weapons, maps, and audio.
