A recent Battlefield 6 update has fixed the sluggish movement players experienced when jumping with certain tools equipped—like the knife or repair tool. According to the Battlefield Comms X account, the patch addresses “an issue where jump momentum gets unintentionally interrupted when jumping with certain weapons equipped.”
This fix is part of a steady stream of updates rolling out since the weekend. Just yesterday, players affected by the recent EA app outage received in-game compensation, while the day before, developers confirmed backend adjustments to Breakthrough mode to ensure maps correctly populate with their intended player counts.
Battlefield Studios has been remarkably swift in squashing launch bugs, a testament to its commitment to live service polish. Despite a few early hiccups, Battlefield 6 is shaping up to be one of the more stable and balanced shooters in recent memory. As Morgan Park noted in his ongoing review, the game feels like “a salve for an FPS scene that takes itself too seriously.”
