The expansion also comes with two new military class gadgets one of which is an unmanned combat aerial vehicle (CAV) that could be used by the players that are of support-class while the other one is a small-unmanned aerial vehicle (SUAV) that would be helpful to the recon-class players.

Besides releasing the expansion pack, EA is working on a fix for certain Battlefield 4 multiplayer bugs that are injuring the performance of the game.

The Patch is supposed to fix some Battlefield 4 multiplayer issues including  “one-shot kill bug”, an error that applies incorrect level of damage to the player. DICE issued the following statement on its forums:

"The PS4 game update that was originally meant to go live Dec. 3 is undergoing some additional testing and will be rescheduled for a later date. We will get back with final details as soon as we have verification that the update is good to go."
