Battlefield V update 1.24 Patch Notes, Read Full Details here

Battlefield V update 1.24 out on PlayStation 4, PC and Xbox One. According to the official Battlefield V 1.24 patch notes, the new update introduces two brand new maps for Squad Conquest, and Team Deathmatch players – Lofoten Islands and Provence. Apart from this, the new Battlefield 5 version 1.24 will also allow players to start on their journey towards Rank 500, and features revisions to Sniper Rifles, and SMGs.

The game developer’s also revisited some of the changes made to AP mines in an earlier update, and adjusted the experience using Parachutes in regular Multiplayer modes across Battlefield V. You should now find that you have more control over the Parachute and that it can be deployed much later than usual, restoring some of the experience found in past titles across the franchise.

The new update also restructured some of the file storage used by the game, which should allow us to make further improvements to Battlefield V in the future, however, this change requires us to redeliver these files to you with this update, and so you will find that this update is larger than expected. On PC, you may find that Origin will have a longer than normal ‘Preparing’ phase, potentially as long as one hour. Players who are not restricted by Data Caps with your Internet Service Provider, and who benefit from fast download speeds may find it faster to uninstall, and reinstall Battlefield V with this update.

Previously, an update was released which removed an issue related to the ‘Invisible Soldier’ and fixed a bug which players were facing when tanks are firing at infantry which would previously result in performance spikes. Unfortunately, since the last update, many players are still experiencing a number of issues when trying to play the game. Today’s BFV update 1.24 update is expected to fix a few of these issues.

Weapons
We’ve performed a balanced pass across the damage of our Sniper Rifles, and the Recoil applied to our SMGs. Relative to the SMG’s specifically, we’ve switched out some of the Specialisations on Weapons which we believe would benefit from an alternative option. In these cases, you should find that your SMG’s may require a repec so double check your loadouts before deploying!
