Battlefield 3 PC Patch Coming December 6th

Games 1603 Published by

The next big Battlefield 3 update for PC is just about ready to roll out. DICE's Mikael Kalms states the 2 GB update will be released Tuesday, December 6th around 8am GMT / 12am PST / 3am EST. It will include a number of bug fixes, balance tweaks, a colorblind mode, and most of the content for Back to Karkand.

Hi all,

We will release an update to the PC version of BF3 on Dec 6th -- that is, Tuesday morning around 8AM GMT next week. This coincides with an upgrade of many of our central systems which will be down for some hours starting around that time.
It will be both a client update -- approximately 2GB in size -- and a server update.

The client/server combination will be incompatible with older clients/servers. All players will be prompted to download the update once it has been released. All RSP companies will begin upgrading their servers at the same time.
The client update is large because it contains most of the content for Back to Karkand. This is not ideal, so we aim to make potential DLC content in the future as optional downloads.

Bugfixes:
 Fixed a problem with spawn timer now showing blue border on startup and lost spawn point
 Fixed a problem where player who joined queuing on End of round got spawn screen stuck on screen, but unable to do anything with it untill next round loaded
 Fixed a problem where camera would change to 3rd person on killcam when killcam was turned off in server settings
 Fixed stat references on several dogtags
 Fixed for surveillance ribbon not counting TUGS
 Fixed a missing combat area lines on the minimap for Grand Bazaar conquest small
 Moved a tank spawn in US base on Caspian Border so it would not be destroyed by a falling tree
 Fixed a problem where placing C4 with the russians soldier was playing US faction VO
 Fixed a problem where TV guided missiles could be shot into its own helicopter and destroy it
 Fixed a problem when attempting to fire lock on weapons without a target
 Tweaked the chat, it should now be a bit easier to read
 Fixed several vehicles that did not properly shoot rockets and guns towards their predictive sights
 Fixed the G17 Supressed Laser not working properly
