2GB di patch per Battlefield 3 PC

Nuova mega-patch in arrivo nella giornata di domani per gli utenti PC di Battlefield 3, l’ultimo capolavoro nato dagli studios DICE. La patch avrà un peso di circa 2 GB, e conterrà numerose correzioni e miglioramenti. Tra questi si annovera la ricalibrazione della torcia tattica (Tactical Light), accessorio molto utile per accecare gli avversari. Dopo la patch la torcia risulterà meno accecante sulle lunghe distanze, così da rendere l’effetto più realistico (immagine a lato).
Ovviamente il peso della patch non è dovuto solo qua qualche effetto lens flare rivisto, ma è giustificato dal fatto che parte dell’aggiornamento conterrà gran parte dei dati del DLC Back to Karkand. Certo non è la scelta migliore visto che si tratta di un DLC opzionale.
In ogni caso il download della patch sarà necessario per poter giocare online, quindi scaldate i vostri modem, perché domani si aggiorna. Ma attenzione, i server andranno offline dalle 9 di domani mattina per caricare la patch sui server.

  2. Ciao, grazie per aver commentato la mia news!
    Purtroppo sembra che per adesso vadano di moda patch che creano più casini che altro. Uno esempio tra tutti Skyrim.
    La fregatura è che per certi giochi votati principalmente all'online come BF3, patchare risulta necessario. E' anche vero però che tale obbligatorietà dovrebbe (e il condizionale è d'obbligo) portare le SH ad essere più attente alle esigenze degli utenti.
    Personalmente non ho molta simpatia per il lavoro di DICE, specialmente dopo la conversione non proprio soddisfacente di BF3 per console (scelte di programmazione che non condivido). Spero sinceramente che risolvano al più presto anche i problemi di crash che riporti, visto che obbiettivamente BF3 al momento è la punta di diamante di DICE ed EA.
