Nachdem Battlefield 3 nun mitlerweile seit zwei Wochen im Handel erhältlich ist, liefert DICE heute den ersten Patch zum Edel-Shooter hinterher. Mit dem Update können PC-Spieler nun unter anderem einige neue Battlelog-Features nutzen.
Â
Außerdem könnt ihr euch mit dem neuen Auto-Login nun auch automatisch bei Origin anmelden lassen, sofern das den noch nötig ist. Eure Statistiken werdet ihr mit dem Patch nun auch über diverse Social-Networks posten können, um beispielsweise eure Kills mit denen eurer Kumpels zu vergleichen. Neben den oben genannten neuen Features wurden natürlich auch einige Bugs aus dem Spiel entfernt und die Ladezeiten verkürzt. Ein Manko, dass mit dem neuen Update leider noch nicht geglättet wurde ist, dass es nach wie vor sehr unkomfortable ausfällt, wenn ihr mit euren Kameraden in den Krieg ziehen wollt.
