Shotguns

The developers want to reduce randomness in shotgun ammunition. Therefore, all shotguns will have ammunition filled with 12 shotgun “pellets”. The spread of these pellets is divided into 12 zones – 6 in an inner ring, 6 in an outer ring. In each zone, one pellet will land.

This ensures that the 12 pellets are distributed more evenly in the spread zone and do not randomly land all in the same zone for “one-hit kills”.

For these changes, the shotguns have been slightly adjusted.

Shotguns

The developers want to reduce randomness in shotgun ammunition. Therefore, all shotguns will have ammunition filled with 12 shotgun “pellets”. The spread of these pellets is divided into 12 zones – 6 in an inner ring, 6 in an outer ring. In each zone, one pellet will land.

This ensures that the 12 pellets are distributed more evenly in the spread zone and do not randomly land all in the same zone for “one-hit kills”.

For these changes, the shotguns have been slightly adjusted.

Self-Loading Rifles (Medics)

The self-loading rifles are being improved in terms of accuracy and range. Accuracy while shooting from a stand has been improved for all SLRs. Most also have a later damage drop-off, thus increasing damage at long ranges.

The spread per shot of the SLRs has been reduced by half. These changes are intended to clearly differentiate the SLRs from the LMGs and make them useful for Medics at greater distances.

ALL SLRs

  • -0.03 to standing ADS minimum spread.
  • Spread increase per shot (SIPS): 0.2 0.1.
  • Increased range for most SLR bullets.

Release date for In the Name of the Tsar DLC in Battlefield 1 later this month

A new Battlefield 1 patch is significantly changing the strength of various weapons. LMGs are being buffed, SMGs are getting enhancements. Initially, the update will be tested on the CTE servers.

Currently, the community can test a patch on the Battlefield 1 test servers that reshapes the balancing considerably. This update is considered the largest weapon update in Battlefield 1 and will initially overhaul the meta. After all, the changes need to be thoroughly tested.

Weapon Update in Battlefield 1 – Patch Notes

Last Friday, the Battlefield 1 developers at DICE announced a new CTE update. And it’s not just any update, but the largest weapon update the game has seen so far. There are high expectations in the community for the changes.

In short, all classes are slightly improved, except for the Scouts. Support players need fewer shots with their LMGs to kill an enemy, and the self-loading rifles for Medics have increased ranges.

On Reddit, the developers explain what to expect from the update. Generally, these altered values are not final and may still be revised before they reach the live servers.

Battlefield 1 They Shall not Pass Soldier Field Weapon

LMGs (Support)

The damage of all LMGs has been increased. This is meant to provide a better player experience, especially for the models that previously required up to 7 hits to kill an enemy.

Most LMGs now kill with 4-5 hits. For a few models, the recoil has been increased due to the damage buff.

  • Minimum damage: 23  28

  • Maximum damage: 23  26.5
  • Minimum damage: 15  20

Since the Lewis, Huot, and Perino will no longer drop off to a much lower BTK at range than other LMGs, their recoil has been increased slightly to compensate.

  • Huot horizontal recoil: 0.16  0.28
