"Within the last couple of days DICE provided an update on the Battlefield 3 patch, which listed errors and bug fixes they expect to include in the download, although today we’re hearing a rumor about a patch to servers.
This blog post states that DICE has confirmed the new BF3 patch will be going live for PS3 and Xbox 360 servers on November 3, which is under 24 hours away. While they do not list their source, it is stated that the developer said the multiplayer game would have a lot of issues fixed.
It seems that this patch may be something different to one for the game itself, and it is expected that this server side patch will fix connection issues, crashing when rounds end, spawn problems (TDM/SQDM spawn point fix), which is extremely annoying. Lastly they also said the server update will fix rubber banding.
You should expect the server update at 8am GMT or midnight Pacific time. We cannot confirm if the Battlefield 3 servers will go down during the update, although we’ll update you as we get more."
