That's about how I expected the game would look on Xbox 360 
I love the weather effects and island nature of Paracel Storm, but fuck the armored boats. They're super powerful. Rather than spawning as an engineer, I spawn with C4 and set up boat traps or go on suicide runs to take them out.

Paracel Storm and Rogue Transmission are probably my favorites. Dawnbreaker and Zavod 311 are up there too. Flood Zone is a cool concept but after it floods it's just a lot of getting sniped from rooftops/the highway :<

I am so glad that there is no more bunny hopping like in Battlefield 3.

BF3 Multiplayer on consoles had the same issue. Very doubtful it's related to DF's workflow.
I like parcel ok... flood am a little ambivalent about. I sort of like most maps, I dont hate any of them (not even locker). But none of them are very good either imo.
On the topic of ARs, the M416 is pretty damn good. I remember someone mentioning it, and, yeah, just unlocked it, and it does feels pretty good. Fucking hate the iron-sights on it though. On most guns actually. They even messed up the SCAR's ironsight. The way they are raised over the barrel, they usually leave a nice open view. Somehow, here, they managed to obstruct your sight to shit. Feels like I cant see shit when ADS.
The javelin does pretty decent on boats. That last rocket luancher is pretty solid as well.

Parcel is very bad. It is so difficult for infantry to move around and helicopters get locked on 24/7. Unless you are one of those boat people then Parcel is a map to avoid.
Anyone?
Paracel people Paracel.

Paracel people Paracel.
Parcel storm is what happened to Siege and Dawnbreaker. That's why there's that crappy paper\trash texture every other 2 inches on the ground.

Sounds like a NAT problem. You should be able to google that and find some things to try.
Played a lot of the Dawnbreaker map last night it's actually an awesome map for small skirmishes. I really wish they would change the spawn on team mate thing it's kind of a major down fall in the smaller game types.
It drives me nuts when you're in a firefight and the 4 other guys spawn around the dude you're fighting. I've even had instances where I've been running in to stab someone from behind and guys have dropped in between me and the enemy it's annoying,

Matimi0 says they patched out the hardcore ammo pool/reload system from vanilla. Confirmed?
Yeah was fixed in R4, which was rolled out November 1st.
Also it's incredible at how fast servers fill up. JUST restarted the server and applied R5, the server is now full with 5 in queue.

Whats the fastest way to rank up?

Ah, nice, I missed that.
CQ DM was the best way in BF3, as it was basically TDM plus the added points from quick capture points. Not sure if it's the same in BF4, as Obliteration seems to give lots of points since the action is so focused.
I play domination mostly and can confirm you get alot of xp in those matches. They run about 10-15 minutes each and you'll almost be guaranteed multiple flag captures. The way the maps are laid out you're almost always fighting and getting points as most maps have two choke points that are usually good for fast firefights.

Also on the topic of maps, I'd have to say Armored Kill > Aftermath >= BF4 > BF3 vanilla. Never played much of End Game.
Edit: Oh and I guess B2K somewhere in there with Aftermath and BF4 too.

I really liked this screenshot I got
Play Locker on Obliteration and follow the bomb?
It's as close to Metro as you can go to be honest.
You get 3 different guns for the 3 different endings.
a QBZ, a P90 and M249.
haha! been playing through Far Cry 3's campaign for the first time (good fun), and have been involuntarily trying to "push" my beached jet ski's in BF4 :/
Anyone else feel like there's too many snipers!?
Nice. I have the P90 and M249.
Sadly it is the norm in every single Battlefield
3 of them clumped on a roof, while the enemy team caps all the points around them and we're steadily losing. Makes me rage like there's no tomorrow.Edit : Will finish the campaign tonight, want to get those weapons. Especially the P90, the finest thing to come out of my country (besides fries, waffles and chocolate).

Just set up a group in Battlelog and the leader of the chat can send invites for everyone to join a game together
Even downsampling can't save those phone/power lines
GAAAAAAAAF, you love calling me out on power lines so check this out. Have you ever seen smoother power lines in a game?
Yeah, me neither.
Damn this game can be so much fun.
I think that Im getting better too,don't know why it was so hard for me to switch from BF3 to 4.Im still pretty new to this series though so maybe thats why I suck so much sometimes.
I always played smaller games with small maps and now it's hard for me to find a good place in all that chaos
The sound,graphics and destruction don't stop to amaze me.The combination of this three aspects is creating really awesome moments sometimes.
Also maps,almost all of them are really good imo.There are some that I don't like to much but there's maybe 2 of them.
How do people here play conquest?What's the best way?Chose one point and defend it or run from one to another?
Music before Roque Transmision and these big antena pictures always make me think about ME4 on this engine

Dat ugly ass building on the left tho
Destruction is infuckingcredible in this game. Pretty much the best I have ever seen. Half the time I can't believe the stuff happening around me in a battle, it looks so good.
Saw a chopper crash in front of me the other day while I was running around, roll all bounce all the way into a building on the side, leaving a flame trail. Took out half the first floor walls before it stopped. It looked so good I was sad I wasn't recording.
BF3 pretty much has NO destruction compared to BF4.
How is stability on r5?
Man, I tried the P90 on a TDM server and I'm just not feeling it. It fires so fast and walks everywhere, to the point where it seems like its effective range is five feet. It apparently doesn't take any foregrip attachments either since its grip is integrated I guess?
The UMP-45 is pretty nice though. Thumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthumpthump

I absolutely hate how pathetic RPG's are to tanks...

Same. R5 only added queues.
Did he died?

The HDDs aren't reflecting reality. ARE YOU EVEN TRYING, DICE?!
I think if you get gold on each chapter, you get a gun? Got a revolver after the first chapter. Check out the bottom group in the assignments tab.
Actually no, not really. And I'm a whiny little bitch when it comes to snipers. It's been very bearable for me so far.
Yeah he got one kill out of it. The red/orange text is the name of the guy he killed.
I love you man.
This solved my stutters completely. Game doesn't stutter a single frame now regardless of how much action is on screen.
