Battlefield 6’s promised, season-extending replace has been formally detailed. The patch, model 1.1.3.5, arrives tomorrow, January 20 proper when Season 1 was supposed to finish. A part of the replace’s aim is to increase the present season, till Season 2 kicks off in the midst of February.
Replace 1.1.3.5 does, in fact, have a change log of its personal that goes past simply the season’s extension, however the adjustments fall someplace between not very thrilling, and a bit puzzling.
Patch 1.1.3.5 is, for all intents and functions, a smaller replace. When Battlefield Studios introduced it earlier final week, the developer didn’t promise any main adjustments or fixes, so expectations by no means obtained out of hand.
The patch is principally made up of bug fixes, nevertheless it does have three key areas of enhancements to gameplay. There’s a giant give attention to melee fight, how responsive/unresponsive it’s with the varied melee instruments, and the way melee behaviour interacts with sprinting and different animations.
The tip end result ought to be sooner assault speeds for the knife, and clearer wind-up animations for each the knife and the sledgehammer. The timing dictating when melee injury will get credited has additionally been made extra constant in numerous environments.
Curiously, dash is now solely interrupted when the melee assault reaches its goal. Because it stands, sprinting is simply interrupted after the complete length of the animation has been accomplished, which provides to the that perceived feeling of sluggishness.
The opposite main, and arguably most complicated is the nerf to jet cannons. The patch goes to make jets far much less stronger in opposition to different air automobiles, requiring 40% extra hits to destroy a goal. That is puzzling as a result of jets – and air automobiles on the whole – are already the least survivable in Battlefield 6.
And, contemplating how the remainder of a jet’s arsenal is both situational or almost ineffective, the cannons have been actually the one assured manner of downing different air automobiles, as long as you handle to land your pictures constantly. Whereas the change is wellmeaning, the share will possible be lowered in future patches.
Lastly, the replace makes just a few refinements to UI throughout the sport, although primarily aimed toward Redsec and modes the place gamers put on armor. Armor bar visibility has been improved, and there’s a repair for the annoying bug that generally brought on the armor bar to vanish each few seconds.
