This December 9th PC patch tackles ”one of the most frequently occurring” crashes for gamers, and helps grenades sail through open doors instead of ‘bouncing back’.
Some instances of frame rate drops when shooting at large Levolution objects after they’ve been destroyed should no longer happen. Feel free to shoot radar dishes again.
The team have also dealt with the ‘shot behind cover when changing stance’ problem: ”Sometimes the character stance could get into a multiple frame desync and be part of the problem where you got shot even though your character was actually behind cover. This would mostly affect players doing transitions into crouch and prone as well as moving when crouched. The impact was smaller in a standing stance. This bug fix eliminates this particular desync issue.”
With problems like this it’s no wonder why EA has suspended all DLC work at DICE until the main game is fixed.
