# BF Pro Bonus Path
Weāre aware of an issue with the BF Pro Bonus Path where the Bonus Challenge isnāt awarding enough path points to complete the full path.
Weāre currently looking into an update so that the bonus path challenge is awarding the intended amount of points. After that, weāll begin investigating another update for players who already completed the challenge, which will take additional time.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
# [Battlefield Comms] Changes to Vehicle Availability in Breakthrough.
Over the last few days, weāve been rolling out a set of changes across multiple Breakthrough maps, starting with our earlier test on New Sobek City. These changes are aimed at improving overall pacing and vehicle availability between Attacker and Defenders, and we are actively monitoring how these changes are impacting gameplay.
If we find that these changes are not performing well, we are prepared to rollback some or all of these changes as our focus remains on steadily improving Breakthrough overall.
Thank you for your patience, support, and feedback as we continue to tune the mode. We look forward to providing further updates in the New Year.
Happy Holidays, @Game News!
# [Battlefield Comms] Raven Raiders bundle items
Due to technical issues with items in the Raven Raiders bundle, we had to temporarily hide them from players' inventory. This has now been resolved, and the items are now available once again. Apologies for the confusion caused by this, and thank you for your patience.

# [Battlefield Comms] Battle Royale Special Forces Operator Challenge 1 fixed
We received reports that the challenge was not providing its reward upon completion. During our investigation, we found the underlying issue and have now resolved it. Unfortunately, we are not able to retroactively grant the challenge reward for players who have already completed the challenge at the moment. Our plan is to retroactively grant the challenge reward once we have an additional change ready to deploy. This might take until the new year, and we apologize for the inconvenience caused by this.

## Player Momentum & Tier Skipping Fixes
Our team continues to work through your feedback and unexpected behaviours with Update 1.1.3.0.
The following changes are now live across all platforms, you may need to reload your game if you have yet to see the change take place on game servers.
- Player Momentum Update - Fixed an issue where players felt they were losing too much momentum during successive jumps, as well as through sliding. Movement should now hold speed as intended prior to Update 1.1.3.0 and feel closer to the behaviour you expect.
- Battle Pass Tier Skipping with Winter Offensive Bonus Path - As communicated yesterday, we had taken a measure to temporarily disable this functionality. Following a resolution this has now been enabled once again, individuals that had used tier skips during the initial window should now see that their tier skips had applied.
Thank you for your continued feedback around this update!

# [BFComms] Conquest Ticket Increase now live!
Today weāre rolling out an update to Conquest that increases the ticket count on all maps from 1,000 to 1,200. This change is now live across all platforms and will apply to your next Conquest match.
Since launch, weāve been closely reviewing your feedback on Conquest and looking at win rates, balance, the impact of objective play, and more. In Update 1.1.2.0, we introduced adjustments to the underlying ruleset designed to further emphasize objective play, ensuring that holding more objectives than the enemy team has meaningful impact.
Those changes have had a positive effect and weāre already seeing more comeback victories from teams that start out on the back foot. However, they also led to matches ending sooner than intended. To address this, weāre increasing the overall ticket count to help maintain match length while preserving the improved focus on objective play.
We believe that focusing on objective play is deep in the DNA of Battlefield and now more than ever, playing the objective and working with your squad and being a cohesive team overall will secure your team the victory.

# [BFComms] Engineer Gadget adjustment
In Update 1.1.2.0 we adjusted the number of gadgets available for Assault and Engineer. Due to an error, the Engineer changes were not reflected in the Update Notes. We wanted to confirm that the current numbers in-game are correct, and you will now spawn with the maximum rocket capacity when using the Anti-Armor Training Path.
Apologies for any confusion caused by this.
