Battlefield 3 server update details

Virtual warmongers will have to take a break today, as the Battlefield 3 servers are under maintenance from 10:00-10:30 AM (local SA time).

The update will introduce “balancing tweaks to the Armored Kill gunship and the long awaited option to remove the minimap in Hardcore mode,” explains DICE.

A tweak to Rush mode will see the Gunship only reappearing after the attackers have destroyed an M-COM station. In addition, “the gunship will always have a 60 second spawn delay in Conquest no matter the server spawn delay setting”.

A number of other tweaks, including server stability, mini-map removal, knife takedowns, and other glitches were attended to.

The update can take around six hours to come into effect on consoles and up to 24 hours on PC.
