Yep, I know where my new SPM-suicide is going to come from now.
Can you play and be the commander at the same time like BF2?
would be great for my dual monitor setup.

You've found the secret to Over's success.

PS3GAF never had these kind of epic tales
Nah, one or the other according to DICE. You could create/use another account and purchase an extra copy of the game just for Commander, but I definitely feel a full-time Commander is needed to get the most out of it.

Anyone watching the BF4 Showdown today? XBone footage ya'll

Commander isn't that good dude. It's just a good replacement to shitty recons.
Frankly, having two recons on the ground AND a commander to EMP the enemy commanders UAV spots would be more beneficial than a lone Commander.
Commander doesn't seem that good for Rush (since DICE didn't intend it there) or Obliteration (same), anyway. It seems to be a Conquest-only thing.
Hahaha. I drove you insane yelling "IFV HERE. TANK THERE. SOMEONE GET THEM. TANKS! TANKS! TANNNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Huh?

Chatbox? Can you not use a mic? JackFrags stated in a video that people using a tablet could speak into it's built-in mic to communicate. Why wouldn't they make it global on PCs and consoles?
I think you can talk to the squad leaders, but it's not the same as a chatbox which everyone on the team can see. I also think people generally are more inclined to type than talk.
PC does have mics, but I don't use that. And I dunno if tablets can connect to TeamSpeak which most people are using since I don't think they know that DICE has kinda-fixed the mic issues in-game from BF3.
Of course they have audio-bugs right now to where I guess TS is a better option.

You know how I work.
I will do any (legit) thing possible to guarantee a win.
If that means spending all my time playing commander...I would do it.

Dickish legit, but legit, yes.

yeah the attack boat is crazy, i got 2 unlocks just sitting in it
So the netcode in BF seems to somehow be even worse than in BF3?! How is this even possible. :-/

Seriously thinking about not bothering with this series anymore.

I've only played a few hours, but it feels worse than BF3. It's kinda frustrating.
Sheesh. It was the thing that I hated the most in BF3. Sometimes it's doable, but it can change from one match to the next and be an unplayable mess.
Getting shot behind full cover. Your bullets going straight through targets. Heli's being hit while it doesn't register, etc.
DICE's priority should lie in creating a game that's actually playable first and foremost.
I just don't get how this wasn't fixed, let alone how it could have gotten even worse.
BC2 was just fine compared to this mess.
It's the servers, they'll fix it in a little bit and it'll feel better and then crash again.
The Battlefield cycle.

netcode is bad, but i assume they'll fix it like they always do. or maybe it's just launch issues... i dunno.

i'll be on later.
we all need to be in the same game... someone start up a text so we can organize!
I'll be on tonight. I need people to lean on, cuz I'm not doing so good while getting used to everything. Also, is there no teamspeak option or am I missing it?
The Faceless Master

nope, squad chat only. squad leaders are supposed to be able to communicate or something like that
DICE really needs to remove the 360 view on the boat. Slam it into the beach for me to get into and 180 the turret down and mow you down? Yes I can.
Eh, ranks mean nothing here anyway. It's all about unlocking the guns and kit items. Once you do that rank is nothing but a number.
Personally, I prefer it that way. Means rank is nothing but a time investment and/or 2XP abusing.
One time transfer, so make it count.

Have you tried unchecking some filters? I believe the beta had the same problem.
