Weapon & attachment changes

A broad balance pass lands with today's patch — the Mini Scout nerf is the one everyone is talking about.

Mini Scout nerf

No more one-hit headshot eliminations beyond 150m — past that range it deals 50 chest damage and 33.5 limb damage.

Tuned weapons

Damage drop-off, recoil recovery and handling adjusted across the SVDM, M39 EMR, SCW-10, GRT-BC and KTS100 MK8.

New attachments

DVO Low-Power Variable Optic for all carbines, thermal scopes for the M44, plus new magazines and muzzle devices across the arsenal.

QoL + fixes

Portal additions, audio and UI polish, and bug fixes across Multiplayer and REDSEC round out the patch.

Checking for updates: the patch pushes automatically on Steam, PlayStation and Xbox when the download window opens. If it hasn't appeared, restart the client — and check the in-game news tab or the official EA patch notes page for your region's exact rollout.
