This Battlefield 2042 Update 4.1.1 brings quality of life improvements alongside the all-chat functionality.
The team at DICE are thinking they are great by adding a function that really should have been put in over a year and a half ago.. Being able to chat to both teams is a basic function and has been in Battlefield from the start! This along with many reasons is why Battlefield 2042 has failed.
If you want to read yet another load of update notes then keep reading.
The main focus of this update is to introduce All-Chat Functionality, a much-requested feature from our community, alongside further Quality of Life improvements.
Chat Improvements
All-Chat functionality is now available. You can once again congratulate the other team for dancing on top of your downed body.
All-Chat will be turned off by default when this update goes live. If you wish to partake in friendly chatter with the opposing team then you’ll need to turn this feature on via Options > Display > HUD General > Chat Section.
Resolved an issue for console players that were unable to assign an input to Chat Visibility.
You will now be able to assign an input via Options > Controller > Edit Controller Mapping > Menu
General Improvements
Resolved an issue that resulted in the CAV-Brawler “Earthshaker” Vehicle Skin from interacting with world objects.
Resolved an issue that prevented some players from selecting equipment from the second and third Weapon Station / Pods within the Vehicles Collection Screen.
Resolved an issue that resulted in some players losing access to Irish’s APS-36 Shootdown Sentinel.
The Damage Dealt Statistic at the End-of-Round Screen was shown for players more often than intended, this has now been adjusted to its intended frequency.
