Battlefield 3 krijgt nieuwe patch

Battlefield 3-ontwikkelaar DICE heeft verschillende bugfixes doorgevoerd. De Quick Match-functionaliteit, de hoeveelheid servers, de lag en de gamestabliteit zal allemaal verbeterd moeten zijn met de nieuwe patch.

Hieronder staan een aantal nieuwe fixes die doorgevoerd zullen worden:

• Quick Match functionality - Thanks to a server patch that went live yesterday, the developer has seen "a big increase in quick match functionality on consoles." DICE reckons you should be able to join a quick match "the majority of times" without hiccups.
• Joining squads - Some users have complained of difficulties joining and staying in squads on console. DICE has "identified the cause of this problem and will hopefully have a fix ready to roll out very soon."
• Hardcore server availability - The developer has solved an issue that made hardcore servers disappear after being live for a set period of time.
• Lag and rubber banding - A bug causing console users to experience lag and rubber banding, particularly in Conquest mode on Tehran Highway and Caspian Border, has been stamped on.
• Default region setting in server browser - Some players, mainly in the US, have had their default region setting in the server browser set to Europe, resulting in lag and rubber banding. A fix is pending in the "very near future."
• Game stability - A server patch that went live today made numerous improvements to overall game stability, hopefully meaning fewer game crashes.
• Origin installation and authentication issues - An Origin update scheduled for later this month should address most of users' problems with EA's platform.
