14 DAY TRIAL // In between launching new patches for Battlefield 4 on the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, or Xbox One, DICE has just revealed an update for the Battlelog online service, which should improve its stability, eliminate quite a few bugs, and add support for new things like the China Rising DLC.
Battlefield 4 impressed many first-person shooter fans thanks to its great gameplay and visuals but, unfortunately for quite a few owners of the game, the title was plagued by plenty of glitches and bugs across all of its many platforms.
Developer DICE has released quite a few patches in recent weeks for the actual game but also for its multiplayer servers, designed to alleviate many issues.
Now, an update for Battlelog, the online service that helps users connect to servers and track their performance, has also been rolled out.
