DICE Rolls Out Battlefield 4 Title Update for PS3 and PS4


DICE has once again released another update for Battlefield 4 on the PS3 and PS4 to address some stability issues and in-game game balancing tweaks.

Just last week, we reported that DICE was preparing a Battlefield 4 patch [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/131180-DICE-Prepares-to-Push-Battlefield-4-Patch-on-Multiple-Platforms-This-Month] that was set to be released on multiple platforms. That update is now live on PC, PlayStation 3 and PS4 and includes fixes for improving general stability, normalizing repair rates across all vehicles, adding a 20% increase to Stealth Jets' 20mm cannons and a few more.

Listed below are the complete patch notes for both the PS3 and PS4 versions.


Jan 14 PS4 Game Update Notes

-Various fixes for improving general stability
-Fixed flickering in map and minimap on Rouge Transmission and Operation Locker
-Fixed issue with player spawning under the map in Lancang Dam
-Increased damage by 25% for the Stealth Jet 20mm cannons
-Normalized repair rates across all vehicles. Vehicles with lower health points, like aircraft and transport vehicles, now repair more slowly than before
-Fixed a bug where the M1 Abrams Coaxial HMG ammo box was occasionally blocking the driver's camera
-Fix for friendly marker not always showing when needed to, resulting in players shooting team members
-Fixed problem with killer health in kill card not being correctly updated (showing 100% health even though the soldier was hurt)
-EU Players: Fixed bug where game wouldn't start when when the console was running in any of these languages: Japanese, Dutch, Portuguese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Czech, Brazilian Portuguese
-Fix for bug where it looked like soldier was dying with 1 health instead of 0
-Fixed a player feedback timing issue where blood was appearing before other damage indicators, and before damage was actually done


Jan 14 PS3 Game Update Notes
-Various fixes for improving general stability
-Fixed a player feedback timing issue where blood was appearing before other damage indicators, and before damage was actually done
-Fix for bug where it looked like soldier was dying with 1 health instead of 0
-Fixed a bug where players' rank icons on the scoreboard would not be updated
-Normalized repair rates across all vehicles. Vehicles with lower health points, like aircraft and transport vehicles, now repair more slowly than before
-Fixed problem with killer health in kill card not being correctly updated (showing 100% health even though he was just hurt)
-Fix for friendly marker not always showing when needed to, resulting in players shooting team members
-Fixed a bug where the M1 Abrams Coaxial HMG ammo box was occasionally blocking the driver's camera
-Increased damage by 25% for the Stealth Jet 20mm cannons
-Stealth Jets now have more similar handling attributes to eachother. F35 & J-20 are slightly more agile, Su-50 is less agile
-Attack Jets now have more similar handling attributes to each other, and all 3 are now slightly less agile than earlier
-Fixed camera glitch when switching weapons while moving in crouch
-Fixed an occasional bug where players could experience intermittent engine sound dropouts when driving wheeled IFVs
-China Rising: Fixed animation glitch for motorbike passengers ocuring when aiming
-Fix for first and third person soldier animations being out of sync while doing transition changes. This could potentially make the player get hit while in cover behind a wall or other obstacle


Battlefield 4 PS3 and PS4 players should be able to download the file now. If it hasn't prompted you to download it, restart the game to initiate the download and install the update. In other BF4 news, it's been revealed that the game's first expansion -- China Rising -- originally had Levolution elements [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/131246-Battlefield-4-China-Rising-Had-Content-Cut-Before-Release] before it got taken out for unknown reasons.

As someone who hasn't experienced a crash in the PS4 version for quite some time now, what should DICE prioritize in its next title update?
