Nieuwe patch bereidt PlayStation 4 voor op nieuwe Battlefield 4 DLC

DICE heeft zojuist een nieuwe patch uitgebracht voor de PlayStation 4-versie van Battlefield 4. Deze bereidt de game voor op de Second Assault DLC.

Wanneer het DLC-pakket zal verschijnen is nog niet bekend, maar het lijkt er dus op dat we niet lang meer hoeven wachten. Verder brengt de patch nog een aantal veranderingen met zich mee, welke hieronder te vinden zijn.

DMR Balance Tweaks

Increased the damage of all DMRs across all ranges. Specifically, damage has been increased at long ranges to allow three

hit kills against unarmored opponents. Additionally, reduced the penalty to accuracy for sustained DMR fire, allowing more rapid follow up shots in combat. The amount of the damage increase varies from weapon to weapon, according to its intended range, rate of fire, and damage. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of DMRs in combat, and determine if additional action is needed to make DMRs a viable mid to long range weapon.
