New title updates for the PC and PlayStation 4 versions of Battlefield 4 will roll out tomorrow, DICE has confirmed.

The two title updates will both address the ‘one-hit kill bug’, which saw a single bullet occasionally register damage twice, and issues linked to crashing.

The PS4 update also fixes a bug preventing audio from being recorded during direct video captures.

PC December 3 Game Update (Expected around 10am GMT 03/12/13)

-Removed the blur effect on soldiers that appeared when Commanders were using EMP attacks 

-Fixed the audio bug where audio sometimes randomly dropped out while playing on certain multiplayer maps (typically Golmud Railway and Hainan Resort) 

-Fixed the “one-hit kill bug” where occasionally damage from a single bullet was applied multiple times 

-Fixed a common crash that would occur when exiting from the Single Player Campaign to Main Menu 

-Tweaked the network and computer performance screen to show proper values. Players can now test their computer and network connection and get recommendations if they need to adjust something to improve their gameplay experience

PS4 December 3 Game Update (Expected in the afternoon of 03/12/13)

-Fixed the “one-hit kill” bug where bullets were sometimes applying their damage multiple times to a character. This could lead to firefights where normal rifles sometimes dealt one-shot kills, which is not as designed. 

-Fixed a crash that could occur when having a very large amounts of Friends 

-Enabled audio in PS4 video captures

An update for the Xbox One version focussing on stability is also due to arrive later this week.

Battlefield 4: China Rising, an expansion pack featuring four new maps, launches to Battlefield 4 Premium members on all platforms tomorrow.
