EA and DICE have not come out and specifically said what will be included in the next patch for Battlefield 3. However, through some hints and rumors, BF3Blog has compiled a list of what the next patch could very well be.
And a few unconfirmed patch notes, but issues/features that DICE are looking into:
Again, right now this is all unconfirmed. Even the "expected fixes" listed above are not 100% confirmed until DICE rolls out their actual patch notes for the next update. So, you know, grain of salt and all that.
- Commo Rose 2.0: a complete overhaul of the “Q”-button communications interface, with new commands, voice overs, and more.
- Weapon specific accessory tweaks: accessories such as silencers, foregrips etc. will now be tweaked on a per weapon basis and not globally. All accessories are expected to be tweaked in this patch. For more, see a full list of accessory tweaks.
- A fix for MAV riding will be applied
- Random “Bad Luck” deaths will be fixed across all platforms.
- PlayStation 3 users will see a VOIP fix
- Drivers will now get 50 points for “vehicle assist kills”. Pilot assist points will be increased as well.
- Sniper rifles will get increased accuracy after aiming-down with Red Dot or Holo sights.
And a few unconfirmed patch notes, but issues/features that DICE are looking into:
- The USAS-12 with Frag rounds will be balanced (unconfirmed: DICE has said they are looking into it).
- The resupply speed on the M320 grenade launcher might get increased, according to DICE.
- Horn sounds will be added to Humvees and other transport vehicles.
- Fall damage is being looked into as well.
Again, right now this is all unconfirmed. Even the "expected fixes" listed above are not 100% confirmed until DICE rolls out their actual patch notes for the next update. So, you know, grain of salt and all that.
