Following its acknowledgement that it is having trouble with DLC and other game features on "Battlefield 4" for next-gen consoles like the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, developer DICE will not be moving forward on any other projects until it finishes fixing the title's issues.
Speaking to IGN, an EA representative discussed the issue saying, "We know we still have a ways to go with fixing the game - it is absolutely our #1 priority. The team at DICE is working non-stop to update the game."
EA hasn't set a release date on some of the other projects like "Star Wars: Battlefront" and "Mirror's Edge." This means that it's impossible to tell exactly what kind of delay these games will see as a result of the "Battlefield 4" fixes.
Earlier this week EA delayed a PlayStation 4 patch for Battlefield 4, which saw the release of its China Rising DLC. Users reported problems with the add-on in addition to the existing issues, such as server limitations and random spontaneous game ejections on some consoles.
China Rising was reportedly "already in the final stages of development by the time issues began with Battlefield 4," so EA "decided to fulfill our promise to deliver it this week."
EA and DICE acknowledged all of its issues with Battlefield 4 and next-gen consoles (as well as some issues on PC) earlier on Tuesday. Updates for all platforms are coming soon but EA has not been able to specify exactly when patches will be available to resolve the game's issues.
"We know many of our players are frustrated, and we feel your pain," EA said. "We will not stop until this is right."
