"We know everyone is very excited about the next Frontlines update and we are doing our best to make sure it’s 100% ready before we release.
As you probably know, part of our testing process is looking at a patch for multiple territories and making sure that it installs correctly and that all features work. If a problem is discovered, the patch is sent back to development for fixes and then re-tested. We have run into some issues with the latest 1.1.0 patch, primarily related to the anti-cheat integration, which is requiring extra time to complete. We are close to having the last of the items resolved and wanted to give you an updated list of items being included in this patch:
