I still play BF4, it's totally fine now on PC. It was broken for a very long time, but DICE LA put in the effort to fix it and now I have zero issues with it.

Yes. On PC BF4 runs fantastically.
Console is a completely different story. Also much better from where it was at launch, and definitely very playable now, but still a mess performance wise.

I'm going to need a server dedicated to that weapon.
Don't Operations have it's own tab? Feel like its a quckmatch-thing

So a question for those on PC. That little framerate indicator on the right hand side during the game, how do I get rid of that? I'm not actually getting frame drops on high, but even turning it to medium or low doesn't make it go away. Is there an option in the menu or something? I have the same issue with BF4 too last time I played that.

Does Pro even make a difference? Its an online game.

If anything it will make the FPS stable. (right?)

Its not framerate. Its packetloss.
If thats what you are talking about.
No the packetloss one is a different one. This is 4 rectangles which indicates frame drops. It's reporting false drops across both BF games and I can't work out a way to make it shut off. They don't make this easy to explain since there's also one with 4 squares that indicates packet loss.
A Pro update would likely make it 1080p and a far more consistent 60fps.

You can't seriously think PRO versions would be different? That would be a shit show.
What? This seems really stupid. Hopefully they change on this stance.
I mean sure they would have a bit of an advantage with a sharper image and smoother play, but I mean, why else would you buy a Pro then? Like what?

Yes there is a pro update for this game.
Edited to add:
You can't seriously think the Pro version would be the same? that would be a shit show. The target for BF1 on PS4 is 60fps the target for BF1 on PS4 Pro is 60fps. One will be much more stable than the other I can't believe this is even a conversation.
Doesnt he mean they cant go from 30 -> 60 etc?

The game aims for 60 fps on PS4 with drops. So I don't think its far fetch to assume on PS4 Pro the fps would be more stable since its still 60 fps like the normal PS4. Resolution, I have no idea haha. Of course this is what I think. I don't think anything has been mention besides a Pro Update.

Pro update could be for the SP portion.
Yeah. On PC this never was an issue, playing with elite setups against toasters. Sometimes I used a toaster when my bro playing on the main rig, and I still dominated despite the worse performance.
The difference won't even be that huge on Pro. A more consistent framerate versus one that fluctuates now and then. I wouldn't call it unfair. Everyone has the option to upgrade for a set price if it really bothers you. Its not like 10 different video cards ranging from 100 to 1000 bucks.

Yeah..and there are zero details on what it will do. Could just be improved lighting for all we know.
You must have a setting for your graphics card that has the FPS counter to be on screen; since it should be off by default on both games.
PS4? How is the fps in 64 player matches?

Holy shit that looks fun.
Please tell me these custom servers are available on the console version.

last two maps of the morning were empire's edge and argonne forest
EE: awesome map, visually beautiful, i love how the green grass just pops when contrasted with the white rocks.
AF: another visual beauty, but definitely a meatgrinder. my team was dominating until the train behemoth arrived (way too soon) which changed everything, my team got completely wrecked afterward.
overall, i'm loving this game. the framerate (ps4) can definitely get a little choppy when a ton of shit is happening at once, but overall the game runs pretty damn good. i love the touches they did with the medic - the revive icon is a big help and i'm a big fan of being able to just sit 'n wait to possibly be revived if there is a medic nearby. the visuals and sound are incredible. can't wait to play the other maps tonight

It's not an FPS counter. It's something DICE added to the games a while back. While playing I'll get 4 orange rectangles come up on the screen and they indicate frame drops. If I then activate a framecounter I can see that my framerate is running at 60fps but the game continues to plaster the stupid boxes across my screen. It appears to be a common issue going by Google, but I've yet to find a fix or any way to turn the notification off. The bottom left one of this image.
It happens on all graphics settings on a 970 and 4790k :/
Its not locked at all in the big modes. Smaller modes its better. But overall it feels smoother then BF4.
Just saying. So you dont get disappointed. And expect 60fps locked on 64 CQ.
I guess I'm glad I have pretty low standards (compared to you) because I think the game is great. It appears to run smooth to me, but I couldn't tell you the exact frame rate. PS4.
Retard? Please.....Go fuck yourself. 24 players on the map sure the frame rate is fine I just tested it. 64 players is definitely not fine though, and that is where my major complaints are coming from. If battlefield means playing small player modes like 24 players then that sounds like a personal problem .

I know a BF game will never run smoothly in these consoles. But if it's better than BF4 I'm happy already

If it ran any worse than BF4 on the PS4 I'd want my money back. Going from the PC version to that was pretty shocking.

How is this running/looking on PS4 right now, folks? I needs to know!
It's amazing IMO. It has exceeded the expectations I had after playing the Beta. The maps are awesome. Sinai is the worst map as I expected/hoped it would be. Argonne Forrest map might be the coolest FPS map I've ever played. Conquest 64 runs pretty damn smooth IMO. I didn't have any slow-mo moments in the 3.5 hours I played last night.

Anyway to change to make the touchpad bring up the scoreboard instead of enlarging the map?
Well, technically it wouldn't be a different frame rate though, right? Isn't BF1 Multiplayer on PS4 supposedly 60FPS? It's not like they locked it at 30FPS for PS4, and the PS4 Pro will have 60FPS, it'll just be a more constant 60FPS.

There's nothing smooth about the frame rate dipping into the 30s
Idk? Holding down the Options button brings up the scoreboard though, in case you didn't know.

Played 4 or 5 Operations last night before bed..
So. Much. Fun!
Even losing is enjoyable, for the most part. I love the Behemoths! Some really tense moments when you're about to run out of attackers and trying to keep a point in play.
The game just feels good. A welcomed return to Battlefield for me.

You can actually hit them through the window...Played all day on 64 maps and some 32, no major performance issues on Xbox One apart from the one sesisons where I got kicked out.
Nutted.
Man, these fucking games. Feels like you can literally do anything.
