DICE has released the patch notes for Tides of War Chapter 3: Trial by Fire Update #2, coming today to Battlefield V.

　　PC gamers with a GeForce RTX GPU will be happy to learn there are further improvements for both Ray Tracing quality and Deep Learning Super-Sampling (DLSS) sharpness. The latter in particular was originally criticized for its blurry implementation in Battlefield V.

　　PC-Specific Improvements

　　• Increased maximum ray count in DXR Ultra to improve reflection quality.

　　• DLSS is now also supported in borderless mode.

　　• Made improvements to DLSS sharpness.

　　• Fixed an issue that caused the Customization screen to be darker than intended when

　　having DX12 enabled.

　　• Fixed a rendering issue that could cause graphical corruption when spamming various

　　player actions.

　　• Fixed a bug that would cause the game to hang if the player mashed all the keyboard and

　　mouse buttons while in the key binding menu. The player that found this must have

　　eaten too much pineapple pizza.

　　• In Firestorm, opening the map and using the "scroll" button while inside a tank in the

　　gunner position will no longer switch the selected tank gun as well.

　　Beyond these PC fixes, this Battlefield V update is mostly dedicated to tweaking the new Battle Royale 'Firestorm' mode released a few weeks ago.
