Aspyr has released its third major patch for Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection, further improving server stability and resolving bugs. Specific issues that have been resolved include a loud sound occasionally playing during matches, a distortion effect on a player’s first-person zoom in split-screen and L3 and R3 not swapping even after selecting the option to do so.
The patch also resolves bugs regarding the UI, text, crashes, graphical problems in both titles and stuttering in movie cutscenes. As for game-specific fixes, the AT-ST loadout should now spawn on Tatooine: Mos Eilsey in the first game, while the Kill/Death Ratio in Battlefront 2 should appear in Career Stats correctly.
