Two days ago on February 1 DICE announced it would be delaying Battlefield 2042's Season One to early summer to instead focus on fixing current issues in the game. It said that implementing a refreshed in-round scoreboard that separates the player's and enemy's teams into two tables would be coming "as soon as possible", meaning mid to late February according to the studio's Twitter post.


But today DICE tweeted again to announce it had pushed out a hotfix to address instability issues caused by the previous update, and in a reply to that post revealed that the scoreboard update would now be delayed.

It said: "Our next update after today's hotfix will roll out in early March. This is a change from our last message to you all on its intended release.

"The extra time will help to ensure we improve the quality of our updates and include additional changes."


Battlefield 2042 was released in November last year with several issues including server connectivity and UI problems, but DICE has said it's committed to bringing "the game up to the highest standards".

IGN said Battlefield 2042 was "good", with its highpoint being the "powerful Portal mode, which lets you relive the series' past glories".
