Battlefield 4: Latest Update Hits Xbox One Today

Released a couple of days ago for the PC, the new Battlefield 4 patch has now been released for the Xbox One.

The latest update fixes many issues, one of which is the concept of “kill trading.” Previously, the game did not take the latencies into consideration so you’d probably have had faced many instances where you kill an enemy but the enemy, even after death, is able to take you down with him with a final burst of bullets. That has been fixed now and those having a higher latency will no longer be able to shoot-out in a last bit of desperation to go 1-1.

This is the second mighty patch following an unstable Battlefield 4 release and expect many more to come. EA has shifted a majority of its work force to iron out Battlefield 4, hence placing other projects on hold.

Here are the full patch notes:
Fixed a common crash that could occur during gameplay.
Fixed an issue that could corrupt save files in the single player campaign.
Fix for the game mode specific ribbons being counted twice in the multiplayer progression.
Fix for a graphical glitch that could appear on terrain.
Fix for the SUAV (introduced in the China Rising expansion pack) not exploding when hitting enemy soldiers. While these indeed should be deadly, they were never designed for “roadkilling” opponents.
Fix for an issue where 4x the damage from a vehicle’s minigun would be applied to the chest when a player had the Defense specialization equipped.
Servers that friends are playing on now have a higher priority in the server list.
Server Browser is no longer showing empty or full servers by default.
Balancing jet handling across all stealth and attack jet classes.
Fixed a bug in Defuse mode where defenders could win a round by killing all the attackers without disarming the bomb. If the attackers arm the bomb, the defenders need to disarm it to win, even if they have killed all the attackers.
Fix for a Defuse bug where none of the teams would win a round by letting the timer run out.
Fix for players getting stuck in the revive screen.
Fix for players getting stuck in the kill camera after being revived. Note that you might see a graphical bug on-screen after being revived when accepting a revive within 1 second. This graphical bug will be removed in the next patch.
Fixed the instance where players suddenly would transition into Spectator Mode while playing the Defuse game mode.
Fix for the death camera/screen being displayed too early.
Raised the first-person camera slightly for walking in crouch to more accurately reflect the actual position of the character.
Fixed an issue with the party chat app not working.
Fixed an issue in the in-game Battlelog where non-ASCII characters would display incorrectly.
Fixed an issue when maps were not loading properly while player didn’t have the game in full screen.
