It's a shame because it's so good and when the matchmaking works it's 👌
you guys should try the martini henry rifle, the sound is orgasmic

The medic weapon Selbstlader also has amazing sound. I think Mondragon is the better weapon to use as a medic but the first time I tried Selbstlader with headphones on my ears came.

hmmm im always on conquest, tho i did play a touch of dom and ops last night, have not played rush yet. guess i'll give those modes a try tonight
Honestly it seems to come down to if you play support or not most of the time.
If I play support and get a medal or highlight at end of round for healing or resupply or whatever I almost always get a box. So there might be some higher % value if you play great support. Bigly support.

Server down here, ps4 south america but my french friend can play.
It's more likely to be the trials running out for a lot of people. Same exact pattern could be seen with Hardline and Battlefront with Xbox being ahead for a couple days after launch, but then PS4 getting the expected 1.5-2x lead throughout the day like BF1 is starting to show now as well.

I agree but I am worried DICE will cave. So many people on the forums complaining that "I am not going to play this for 2000 hours because where is my reward for all that time?"
Not even exaggerating, this the mentality for hundreds of unlocks to grind for. People would rather grind than enjoy a game for the core gameplay experience
You'd think the elite class was bad enough to deal with 😈

PC: 85,834 (24h peak: 85,834)
XBOXONE: 67,183 (24h peak: 123,893)
PS4: 118,899 (24h peak: 142,881)
Total: 271,916
Wow that PS4/Xbox gap is crazy! And this is despite the EA Access and Xbox marketing deal. Wth!

Yep sadly down.
Yeah, I had some fun with that yesterday : )
EU is awake and PS is way bigger in EU.
This is now btw. Peaks are way more intresting btw. Because those current stuff is always way to depended on wich time.
PC: 91,495 (24h peak: 91,495)
XBOXONE: 71,832 (24h peak: 123,893)
PS4: 94,098 (24h peak: 142,881)
Well most people are yet to come home or go to work so it's probably yet to stabilize.

Whaaaat is going on with this game now?
I absolutely can not use my keyboard + mouse to play. Nothing happens. I can't even use the keyboard in menus to bind keys. No controller is plugged in.
Anyone seen issues like this pop up for other people?
EDIT: It was ReShade. Removed it and I can use my keyboard again.

We're stuck waiting for the Americans to deal with their domestic politics. Hopefully it won't take them 2 1/2 years this time.
j/k obviously. I quite like the title and understand why Wilson wouldn't want to get involved in the old world's imperial clusterfuck.
As a Brit I guess I need to play conquest so I can "Take Back Control" from those dastardly Europeans

Unlocking the Mondragon for the medic class is a legit game changer. That gun is glorious.
Take the Empire back from these heretics!

I'm actually a bit surprised the console peak numbers are that much higher than the PC counts. I've always thought of Battlefield as a PC series first and foremost, but clearly I'm in the minority.

Is the PSN completely down in NA for anyone else? I'm getting DNS errors when I try to log into my PS4 or PS3, yet the mobile app seems fine.
In your opinion, what class is the easiest to start with, with someone who's not that good in FPSers. (Yes, I'm talking about myself). I've been playing with the support class, and enjoy it, but my death ratio is awful.
I've ended matches with 3 Kills and 16 deaths. I feel at that point, I'm letting down my team. Granted, in all my CQ matches I'm usually one of the top resuppliers of ammo, so I feel I'm contributing, but I die way too much lol.
Should I just stick with the Support class, since I like supporting the team. And just hope that I start to get better with the K/D portion of the game. I just don't want others to look at my K/D ratio and say "He sucks, kick him out of the squad."

Since BF3 console always had more players really. With BF3 it became more a mainstream series. Console numbers will drop harder over time btw. Still will be above the PC. But console players tend to move on quicker where PC players stick longer with a game.
Medic really. Accurate guns and you can heal yourself. Wich keeps you alive more.
Dont look to much btw to K/D. Play your role. Drop ammo, heal, revive people etc. More important then pure K/D.

If you are playing conquest, its more about the objectives than your ratio.
In Conquest your score per minute is much more important than your K/D ratio.
Just be sure to resupply your teammates and play the objective. And have fun!

Cant view friends list or anything.
BF4 was the same way too.
Yeah after testing pretty much all the medic weapons, Mondragon is easily the best. It doesn't really have any major weaknesses except maybe small-ish mag size. It's good in every range. Both Optical and Sniper variants are great but I prefer the Sniper one because you get a bipod and I think it's easier to see enemies through its scope.
The only weapon that comes close is the Selbstlader. It has amazing firing sound and good size mag but it doesn't quite have the long range accuracy of Mondragon. Also slightly less dps.

http://downdetector.com/status/playstation-network/map/ is showing localized outages in the Mid-Atlantic States, Northern Europe centered on Belgium, and all of Japan. Hopefully it isn't a cascading problem.
It's down for me... Germany PS4. Or better: the game says I'm offline but PSN ist working just fine for me.
Actually thought we would have a smooth start, considering that the most people are still not online yet and I'm sure a lot more played the open beta which was quite a smooth experience by the end if I remember correctly.

Damn, is that you saying it gets worse?
