Battlefield: Hardline’s first patch addresses priority issues

Battlefield: Hardline is set to receive its first patch, with Visceral Games asserting that the game’s “top five priority” issues will be addressed.

Key items in the patch include:

  • Punkbuster fixes – Addressing some of the heavy CPU usage seen by players.
  • Nvidia DirectX driver fixes – Working with our partners at Nvidia to create new drivers to prevent the most common crash issues.
  • Extended Conquest time – Extended the length of Conquest matches by increasing the number of tickets on both Large and Small.
  • Fixed TDM spawns – Adjusted spawn points and the spawn system for better TDM spawning.
  • Multiple weapon balance tweaks – Addressed some common complaints with the weapon balance, there will be more coming soon.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
