Battlefield 3 Patch Hits Xbox 360 Tomorrow
If you thought that Battlefield 3's Suppression Resist Specialization wasn't effective, I have great news for you: It's getting a major tweak in tomorrow's patch. PlayStation 3 and PC players already received this update, and come tomorrow morning, the 360 crowd will be able to experience all of the tweaks and balancing that DICE has been working on since the game launched last year. Almost every weapon and attachment is receiving a minor change. Spawn locations for Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch are improving. Even the black screen fade for spawns has been addressed.
This patch also brings the Rent a Server option that allows players to publish their own Battlefield 3 server complete with customized settings. The server charge starts at 120 Microsoft Points a day and runs up to 4,800 Points for 90 days. Battlefield's official blog has a complete list of changes in store for the 360 version.
