Battlefield 2042 Weapon Latest Updates and Changes (Update #3.1)

Update #3.1 (December 09, 2021)

Weapon Update #3.1 Patch Notes

• Removed bounce from Underbarrel Grenades when firing at short distances • 40mm AP Grenades now properly damage vehicles • Fixed some weapons displaying wrong ammo counts for specific magazines • DXR-1 and NTW-50 Bolt Action rifles reload animation increased by 0.2 seconds • Adjusted dispersion values for most weapons, which results in a faster dispersion decrease when tap firing or doing short bursts • Adjusted dispersion increases for most weapons. It now takes slightly longer for weapons to become overly inaccurate in sustained fire • Adjusted the recoil values to prevent over aggressive recoil jumps for the AK24, LCMG, PKP-BP, SFAR-M GL, and PP-29 • Improved hip fire accuracy for all SMGs to make them better stand-out from other automatic weapon archetypes • LMG dispersion and recoil lowered to improve performance in sustained fire • Additional improvements to recoil control for all weapons, more specifically automatic weapons. • Increased close range damage and consistency of the MCS-880 when using Buckshot Shell or Flechette Shells • Fixed a bug that caused bullets to be fired below the player’s aims for the SFAR-M GL and the K30

Battlefield 2042 Weapon Classes

All Weapon Types

Weapon Classes	How to Use
Assault Rifles	Assault Rifles are a good starting class for first-time players. They offer decent damage, good handling, and are practical for both close and mid range combat.
Marksman Rifles	Marksman Rifles offer more range and power than assault weapons, but have lower handling and rate of fire. Ideal for mid to long rang combat.
Sniper Rifles	Sniper Rifles are meant for picking off targets from long distances. Set up behind some cover or on a lookout and take out enemies before they can get close to you.
SMG	SMGs can make quick work of enemies with its high rate of fire. Use it for close to mid range combat to mow down incoming enemies.
LMG	LMGs offer powerful but slow rounds with lots of ammo. If many enemies are crowded into one area, an LMG can deliver some serious damage.
Utility	Utility weapons include Shotguns, which are ideal for tight indoor spaces. These shotguns provide high damage and are good around corners. They are not recommended for open field combat or long distance.
Secondary	Secondary weapons will provide backup in tight spots, such as running out of ammo. For specific builds, such as sniper, it will also provide a quicker alternative for close-quarters combat.
