It takes a fair bit to change that XFAD-4 Draugr, i'll have you know.

Hello there,

Tomorrow, Tuesday, July 23rd, we will be deploying a small update to Battlefield 2042. The primary focus of this update is to return Battlefield 2042 to its main theme within the game's menus as we transition away from Season 7 visuals.

Update #8.0.0 will consist of no downtime for this update, though you may need to restart your game in order to benefit from the changes taking place.

Additionally, last week we shared a brief overview of what to expect as we continue transitioning away from Seasons and continue supporting Battlefield 2042 with regular game, ba...

Hello there,

We recently gave you an update on ~what to expect for the future of Battlefield~™ ~2042~, and our transition away from regular Seasons. Now that we're nearing the end of Season 7, we’re back with a brief overview on what's next.

Support for Battlefield 2042 will continue with regular game, balance, and Quality of Life updates, Portal highlights, and Friday Night Battlefield experiences. But today, we’re also here to tell you about new ways for you to play, through Vault Drops and events.

...

Rush Chaos XL is now live on Battlefield 2042 across all platforms.

We've temporarily removed Breakthrough Chaos to fix an ongoing issue within the mode, and you can expect to see it return in a future rotation.

You may need to restart your game to see the new option.

" I swear modern dice hates air. They really don't want anyone to be able to enjoy any flying vehicles with how easy it is to keep them down."

I personally disagree, air has dominated in many Battlefield titles - and still does when placed in the hands of a skilled pilot and squad that knows how to keep a piece of aircraft flying. It's about bringing them into a range where they can be mastered by skilled pilots, and enjoyed by those that just want to fly casually.

It is not about bringing them into low significance but bringing them into contention with the rest of the field and not being the Heavy Bomber of Battlefield 2042 - like the one in Battlefield 1 :)

As part of Battlefield 2042 - Update #7.4 we have also made some additional changes to the XFAD-4 Draugr.

The following changes are now live:

• Lowered the radius of the Kerosene Bomb from 20m to 18m.
• Lowered the radius of the Kerosene Bomb's lingering fire upon explosion from 20m to 18m.

We anticipate these changes should bring the XFAD-4 Draugr back into a balanced state, however, we'll continue to look at the efficiency and make further changes if necessary.

Thanks!

With 7.4 we’re also introducing a new time-limited event: Battlefield 2042 | Dead Space

During this event, players will experience Outbreak. A new 4-player squad PvE experience where you will fight waves of Augmented Targets. Starting on the western end of Redacted, players fight through eight sectors while completing objectives until they call an elevator to exfiltrate out on the far-eastern end of the map.

I think I included in our updates notes once that the penguins hadn't invented adamantium yet, I believe that is still the case... turn that hatchet in for inspect please.

You just love to see it 🥰

What is it about Hardcore that interests you?

Curious as to why you don't see Battlefield Portal as counting either, given there are often creations from that which become official featured modes?

Thanks!

Heads up folks we wanted to give you a couple of heads up on a few things before the weekend.

First off, there'll be a change in this week's rotation.

FridayNightBattlefield's mode this week will now be Fast Conquest instead of the planned Rush Chaos XL. Rush Chaos will make its return in a future rotation.

We've had some of you raise confusion about when you can earn the rewards within FNB, you can now work towards the Weapon Charm, Playercard, and Tag by participating this weekend.

There is no requirement to reload the game to pick up this change.
