Battlefield 2042: Update 2.1.1 Nerfs K30 and the Avancys

Battlefield 2042 received a new update recently that brought balancing adjustments for certain weapons, as well as bug fixes to resolve major issues.

The Avancys is a light machine gun in Battlefield 2042, highly popular among players due to its high accuracy and large magazine size. In Update 2.1.1, this LMG’s overall accuracy has been reduced, with increased dispersion per shot to 0.06 and base recoil to 0.36.

Meant to be used as a close-range submachine gun, the K30 was quite accurate even at medium distances. For this reason, this SMG’s potency at longer distances has decreased. Now, its minimum dispersion angle is increased to 0.18, dispersion per shot is increased to 0.15, and dispersion decrease rate is reduced from 20 to four.

Update 2.1.1 implements other changes and some much-needed bug fixes as well. The patch notes can be found below:

• Setting Mouse Raw Input to Off in Settings will no longer disable mouse movement in-game

• Renewal
  • It was sometimes possible to deploy under the map in the first sector of the US HQ. This no longer happens
  • Fixed several areas on Conquest 64 that would incorrectly flag you as Out of Bounds

• Firing continuously with weapons while using a controller would sometimes desync recoil between the client and the server. As a result, shots missed their target when they should have hit. This has been resolved
• The AC-42 sights are once again useable after equipping the UH-1 Smart 1.5x Scope in the default slot
• Fixed an issue where the mesh of the UH-1 Smart 1.5x Scope was missing from the AC-42
• Vault Weapons now properly apply recoil reduction when playing on Console
• The range of weapon draw speed for Vault Weapons now matches those of All-Out Warfare weaponry
• Fixed an issue where users cannot ADS after exiting a moving vehicle if the equipped weapon has an underbarrel attachment equipped
• The M16A3 now has the correct Headshot Multiplier for Assault Rifles (2.15x)

• Dispersion Per Shot increased 0.06 > 0.11
• Min Dispersion Angle increased 0.14 > 0.17

• Base Recoil reduced 0.44 > 0.36
• First Shot Recoil Multiplier reduced 1.45 > 1.15
• Dispersion Per Shot on ADS reduced 0.13 > 0.1

• Base Recoil reduced 0.6 > 0.54
• Dispersion per Shot on ADS reduced 022 > 0.17
• Reduced Stepped Recoil Multiplier from 6 bullets to 4
• Damage Increased on all ranges

Battlefield 2042 Update 4.1.1 is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
