EA published the Battlefield 6 update 1.4.3.0 notes on September 14. It downloads at 8:00 UTC on September 15, with Tidal Strike content live at 12:00 UTC. Proximity chat arrives in Battle Royale, and the Deep Six Collection Event runs to October 12 with weapon packages and a Diver's Knife. On balance, the RCB90 boat's health rises from 800 to 1000, the Little Bird's minigun overheats about 33 percent faster and does half damage to boats, and the Interdictor's minimum damage climbs from 62 to 80 while its sweet spot drops from 150 to 100.

Discussion Topics

  1. Little Bird minigun cut in half against vehicles: fair balance, or did DICE kill the most fun pilot job in the game?
  2. Interdictor with 80 minimum damage but no 150 sweet spot: buff or nerf for how you play it?
  3. Proximity chat in Battle Royale: tactical gold, or a toxicity machine?
  4. Do collection events like Deep Six actually get you playing, or are they grind disguised as content?
