Well there was that, but my game would also just freeze up randomly on that map. Pretty sure the tower can only fall once per game.

LOL, what?
Wait, let me get this straight: The Shanghai tower falls and suddenly lots of people are kicked out of the game?
Wow. Just wow.
Yes, that is correct.
The Shanghai tower falls and anywhere from 50% to 80% of players are kicked from the game. Many server admins -- including myself -- are pleading with players to not take down the tower. I'm THIS close to remove Shanghai entirely from my map rotation until the issue is resolved.
I shit you not.
Talking about the machinegun?
Yes, that one seems broken now. It's almost impossible to hit anything with it.
I've gotten claymore kills after my death, so they do stay until you pop down another one at least.

How about this: Patch the game so only the people who stay on the tower will crash out. The problem will correct itself and then half the server won't stay on that god forsaken tower for half the game.
I was on a server that lost like 40 people when it fell last night.

There are no such thing as a bad map, only a player who has yet to master it.

Operation locker is a ton of fun. I played Obliteration on it last night. There are a lot of different things you can do.
If you're inside, you get to run up behind a crowd of teammates and peak your head around corners and shoot rocket launchers down a hall.
OR you can go outside, find your mass of teammates, and slowly peak your head around a corner and fire off a sniper shot. Just don't peak out too far or you'll be instantly shot by about 12 snipers from the other team.
There's this tug of war mechanic where your mass of teammates slowly pushes forward or backward, which moves the grenade launcher\sniper battle to completely new and interesting locations.
I don't know about you guys, but that's why I love Battlefield games!

One of my favorites too at 32 players or less. Not horrible at 48, but not great, and completely terrible at 64. Then again, I think most of the maps are awful at 64 players. DICE really should bring back the expanded 64 player versions of maps that older PC releases had.
There's a DICE test server that was setup so I spent the early afternoon playing on it. Was allright (though I crashed while switching maps once) then we got to Shanghai aaaaaand they kicked the tower down --> game crash. I thought it was fairly funny it happened on their own server as well.
In 32 players or less, sure, its okay then. In anything bigger than that, I wanna slice my wrists.
I think you bought the wrong game. Go for Call of Duty Dogs.

There's room for both close quarters infantry maps and wide open vehicle maps in Battlefield. Variety is good!
Yeah, but Locker just sucks. Metro was much better IMO xD

PP2000 with silencer is a beast. A tiny little beast that definitely wrecks shit up
How I unlocked the ACE
Pfff, I'm making so many points as an Assault.
Locker 24/7 - 64 players - heal and revive = Win

I'm getting really good at running up on tanks/BTRs with C4 as Recon. I'm not sure if I'm getting lucky or if most players just aren't expecting to be bum rushed, but it's getting me an incredible amount of kills.
Highlight so far has to be landing C4 on a helicopter as it flew past the building on Zavod. Wish I'd had Shadowplay running.
My eyes are rolling into the back of my head.

Best close quarters maps are Lancing Dam, Golmud Railway and Flood Zone
And even those are a fucking stretch for 'infantry maps'
I just play Domination when I'm in the mood for infantry battles.
Game did not ship with a good infantry map, I hope China Rising alleviates that issue.

its feels harder to see enemies in bf4 than bf3 while inside tanks
then again i had the prox scan on 100% of the time in bf3 so it likely dulled my senses in detecting those around me

Well, sure, Locker is perfect for grinding ribbons, we all know that, but that doesn't make it fun.
Although I'd admit at ~24p it is kinda fun..... =P

He is probably referring to Conquest Small or Domination.
<32 players makes the flank routes actually viable. On Domination the map is actually very good as well, again <32 players.
No one answered my question yesterday.

I really want to play the game, cause it felt great when it worked, but can't be bothered to deal with this anymore.
Fix your fucking game DICE.
If you are not premium, you get it when everyone else on that platform without premium gets it. You just got it for free, that was your perk for pre-ordering, not early access.
Actually I meant the DM map version ^^

What is a good keyboard/mouse layout for controlling helos and planes? I feel like I always get screwed up with the mouse when I'm piloting cause I end up rolling too far.
Do people just use the default controls for planes and helos with M+KB? Or do you switch things up for better control?

No there isn't. I bought Battlefield for Big Team Battle. Not Shootbangmeinthebackdawtbrazzersdawtkawm.

Please don't tell me Metro was your favorite BF3 map because of this too.
But I must say I actually had my best game on that map, it was fucking intense to the last second and we managed to actually get through and fuck each other over on the side there a couple of times. We were behind with quite a bit with 100 tickets to go, but managed to get in behind and capture their points leading to this narrow victory
That felt real good.
BF3.
Yes, and I wish EA would stop forcing DICE to do that. It's like making Halo into Call of Halo: Just doesn't work, and Halo 4's population bled out. EA's just lucky because they're "modern warfare" but I don't know: A lot of "old-school" fans are starting to hate the direction the series is going.
Are you referring to Back to Karkand? Premium didn't exist at that time, everyone could play on day one.
Dice pretty much fucked over the competitive community with this release.
Yes, I am. But like BF3 if you got that for free and bought Premium later, you didn't get anything extra/saved cash. It's going to be the same thing here.
That logic doesn't seem to translate to the date played for me, ie seems a stretch to assume that.
So basically there isn't anything official yet it would seem.
