Battlefield V (5) Update Version 1.30 Patch Notes

Battlefield V (5) update version 1.30 patch is now rolling out on PlayStation 4, PC and Xbox One. According to the official Battlefield V 1.30 patch notes, the new update brings changes to the recent Weapon Balancing with improved Damage Models on multiple weapons, the removal of ‘3D Spotting’, and more. Apart from this, the new BFV update 1.30 also includes performance and stability improvements.

Previously, a major update 5.2 was released with a long list of quality of life improvements. Apart from this, the last update also added balance changes for weapons – including a specific focus on Pistols.

Unfortunately, since the last update, many players are still experiencing several issues when trying to play the game. Today’s BFV update 1.30 update is expected to fix a few of these issues.
