Battlefield 3 Patch Tuesday

It will be both a client update -- approximately 2GB in size -- and a server update.


The client/server combination will be incompatible with older clients/servers. All players will be prompted to download the update once it has been released. All RSP companies will begin upgrading their servers at the same time.
