DICE has just rolled out a brand new patch for Battlefield 4 on the PlayStation 4 platform, fixing quite a few crashes and issues that are continuing to plague the first-person shooter.

Battlefield 4 made its debut at the end of October for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360, and in November for the PS4 and Xbox One next-gen consoles.

While the game certainly delivered a great-looking first-person shooter experience, the actual gameplay was plagued by plenty of bugs and issues, not to mention random crashes across all platforms.

DICE rolled out quite a few big updates for most versions of the game and is continuing this steady stream of releases so that players can finally enjoy a stable experience.

Now, a brand new patch has gone live on the PS4 that should bring plenty of fixes for various crashes and issues.

Check out the full changelog below, via Battlelog.

- General stability fixes that should remove a large amount of the client crashes we are currently seeing on the PS4 - Fixed the audio drop outs that could occur when playing on large maps. Typical map affected was Golmud Railway in Conquest with 64 players. Ambient sound would sometimes cut out, like foley sounds from player running, vehicle engine sounds, vehicle movement sounds, and map ambient sounds - Removed the blur effect on soldiers that appeared when Commanders were using EMP attacks - Further reduced the probability of getting a corrupt save file by doing miscellaneous changes to the save file system. These include removing the save file saving again when quitting multiplayer - Fixed multiple crashes that could occur when bringing up the in-game Battlelog during round transition - Fixed a crash that could occur when using the BattleScreen - Fixed a random crash related to destroying vehicles - Fixed minor destruction issues in the terrain

The brand new patch is already available for download via the PlayStation Network online service.
