For starters, a lot of technical fixes have been applied to Battlefield 4. From random crashes, to high CPU usage on PCs, to improved performance. The final game will run much better on a wide range of PC hardware.
Gameplay-wise, a lot of balancing has been done since the beta. Some of the most important tweaks include:
- Reduced the fire rate of the AK-12 in burst mode, as it was overpowered (to 750 RPM from 1000 RPM).
- Several other weapons have been rebalanced when it comes to autofire.
- Revive time has been increased to 10 seconds from 7 seconds.
- Muzzle flash from grenade launchers has been increased to make their position more visible.
- Portable ammo packs will now resupply two main magazines instantly instead of one. Their default throw distance has been increased as well.
- RPG and SMAW no longer lock on vehicles.
- Stinger and IGLA anti air launchers has increased damage. It now takes 3 rocket hits to destroy an aircraft.
- The speed of the stationary TOW missiles has increased by 50%.
- The coaxial LMG on tanks and APCs has increased accuracy.
- Reduced damage that the M320, the M32 MGL, and XM25 grenade launchers do to armored vehicles.
- Fixed the main tank gun crosshair issue. The tanks now fire accurately.
