Battlefield 6 Update 1.1.1.5 Patch Notes: Improvements to Redsec Match Flow, Squad Revives, and End-of-Round Transitions

Electronic Arts and Battlefield Studios have prepared one of the first major patches for Battlefield 6 since the launch of its free-to-play Redsec battle royale module. Update 1.1.1.5 brings a variety of fixes across the game, with a significant focus on balancing and improving key aspects of Redsec, including match flow, squad revives, and round transitions.

Release Schedule

The Battlefield 6 Update 1.1.1.5 is set to launch on November 11, but the patch notes have already been made available. Alongside a number of broader fixes affecting the game’s other modes, many changes specifically target the Redsec experience.

Major Fixes and Updates in 1.1.1.5

  • Fixed an exploit allowing players to ascend and access unintended areas by standing on the XFGM-6D Recon Drone and hitting it with the Sledgehammer.
  • Resolved an issue where Lock-Guided Missiles were not properly countered by enemy flares and countermeasures.
  • Fixed vehicle spawning problems occurring in Breakthrough and Conquest modes.
  • Addressed multiple Battle Royale issues impacting match flow, squad revives, and End-of-Round transitions.
  • Improved progression, audio, and UI elements to boost clarity, reliability, and overall immersion.

Detailed Changelog

Player

  • Corrected dispersion issues where weapon spread was higher than intended when transitioning from sprinting to aiming down sights (ADS).
  • Fixed scaling of dispersion with movement speed to better reflect actual player speed, rather than always assuming maximum movement speed for the stance.
  • Tuned landing animations to reduce excessive camera and weapon movement during and after landing, enhancing visual stability when aiming down sights.
  • Resolved instances where ADS aim could be misaligned after sliding.

Vehicles

  • Fixed Lock-Guided Missiles not being correctly countered by enemy flares and countermeasures.

Gadgets

  • Patched an exploit that allowed players to reach unintended areas via the XFGM-6D Recon Drone and the Sledgehammer interaction.

Maps & Modes

  • Fixed vehicle spawn issues in Breakthrough and Conquest.
  • Corrected an error where matches sometimes started with all sectors and objectives active simultaneously.
  • Fixed an issue in Strikepoint mode on the Siege of Cairo map, where destruction did not reset at halftime.

UI & HUD

  • Updated Vehicle Customization to properly display unlock criteria for locked Anti-Air Vehicle presets.

Progression

  • Fixed the shotgun weapon challenge “Kill 5 Enemies With a Shotgun Without Reloading” to ensure it completes correctly.
  • Resolved a bug where progress on the “Engineer Specialist 3” assignment was not saving properly.

Portal

  • Fixed “SpawnLoot” not spawning Ammo or Armor as intended.
  • Corrected an issue where players with community creation privileges set to Block could still access user-generated Community Experiences when the party leader hosted a match.

Audio

  • Fixed an issue where activating the BF PRO Radio Channel via the Commo Rose did not play any audio.

Redsec (Battle Royale Mode)

  • Fixed an issue where Battle Royale (Quads) matches failed to end after the last team was eliminated.
  • Resolved a bug where being killed immediately after a mobile respawn could inadvertently eliminate the entire squad instead of reviving remaining teammates.
  • Fixed cases where players became stuck in a top-down map view following redeployment.
  • Corrected an issue where players retained their Second Chance after redeploying and did not transition to the End of Round screen after subsequent elimination.

Redsec UI & HUD

  • Fixed a display issue where all squad members showed the same highlighted stat on the Squad Placement screen.

Redsec Progression

  • Fixed the “Battle Royal Master Challenge 4” so that progress is now tracked correctly.
