Dice had some new info on the upcoming 1.6 patch for BF42. In addition, they will have 2 new maps.

Battlefield Command has busted butts to get the 1.6 patch done as quickly as possible. Our sincere hope was to release it before the December holidays. Unfortunately, our commitment to releasing clean patches means that we cannot release the patch in its current state. We still need some time to clear up a few glitches. So, you at least have something to look forward to in January when youve finished playing with all the toys and goodies youve received over the holidays!
Heres a short-list of some of the features you can look forward to:
Punkbuster support
New in-game GUI for map and kick-voting
New game server allows hosting of different mods, maps and modes in the same server rotation
Chat lag fixed Editors Note: Yee Frickin Ha!
Russian Ilyyushin IL-2 added to Kursk and Kharkov
New Battlefield 1942 map
New Battlefield 1942: Secret Weapons of WWII map
In the meantime, here are some screenshots of what you can expect…and yes, we will be getting coal in our stockings for teasing you with these so early….enjoy!
