In case you've been playing Kaos Studios and THQ's Frontlines: Fuel of War, then you'll be glad to know that information about the latest patch had been released. Joe Halper, Senior Producer at Kaos Studios, gave an update about the upcoming Frontlines patch, 1.1.0.

The current patch notes are beefy and include quite a number of changes, a couple of new features, the new server browser, and some bug fixes, among other things. We're sure you've been waiting for PunkBuster and Spawn Protection (anti-cheat and anti-spawn camping, respectively) and they'll be features we'll be see once patch 1.1.0 goes live.

Anyway, you can check out the Frontlines: Fuel of War (also on Xbox 360) patch notes below, but remember that since 1.1.0 is still in testing, some changes might be added or taken from the current notes.
