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.

That covers the Battlefield 6 Update 1.1.1.5 patch notes. Stay tuned to our Battlefield 6 topic for more news, updates, and in-depth guides to the game.

How to use Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec

Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec: A Complete Guide

The Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec are an integral part of the weapon upgrade system. These kits allow players to upgrade weapons found on the map, making them an excellent choice for those who don’t have access to drop firearms early in the game. While Redsec lets gamers create their preferred custom loadouts, the on-ground loot—including Gunsmith Kits—provides a convenient way to survive the early stages of a Battle Royale match.

What Are Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec?

Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec do not have fixed spawn points and appear in random locations. Typically, you can find these kits inside loot crates scattered across buildings on the map. The orange weapon crates especially have a higher chance of containing a Gunsmith Kit. Because their spawn is random, you’ll need to rely on luck — so make sure to open every crate you come across to increase your chances of securing one.

Once you acquire a Gunsmith Kit, you can either use it immediately if you have a compatible weapon or store it in your inventory. Alternatively, you can also share the kit with your teammates.

How to Upgrade Weapons Using Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec

To use a Gunsmith Kit, you must have a compatible weapon. Battlefield Redsec offers different types of kits, each designed for specific weapon categories—for example, PDW Kits are compatible with SMGs, while MG Kits are meant for LMGs.

Once you have both the compatible weapon and the corresponding Gunsmith Kit, upgrading is simple:

  • Hold the interact button to open the upgrade menu.
  • Select one of the two available attachments offered by the kit.

Applying an attachment will increase the weapon’s rarity and enhance its performance. The types of attachments you receive depend on your weapon’s current rarity:

  • Common weapons usually yield basic scope attachments.
  • Higher-rarity weapons unlock better attachments that significantly improve your weapon’s capabilities.

If you want to maximize your arsenal’s potential, keep scavenging for more Gunsmith Kits throughout the match.

Final Thoughts

Gunsmith Kits are a valuable resource in Battlefield Redsec, especially for players who might not have access to high-tier weapons early on. By understanding how and where to find these kits and how to apply their attachments effectively, you can gain a substantial advantage in the fast-paced Battle Royale environment.
