Flanking, oblivious people.
I've got like 49 or so far and probably would be over a hundred if DICE would fix the disconnect/crashing I have to the point where it makes me not want to play the title.

Just playing alone with pubs just makes the game boring to me (unless I grind some unlocks or something in Domination). This game is really built on teamwork and 1 competent squad can be the difference between a loss and a win.
Most of my time played has been with either a full squad or almost half the team talking on Mumble and that really helps with SPM. I'm currently at 585 and I've mostly been playing Conquest.

Just had my first crash and needed to restart. I was in the middle of such an awesome round of Obliteration on Paracel Storm too.
Same for me.
I am gonna stab the shit outa you!!

Everyday I trick myself into thinking this game is gonna run ok for me. Then I play and it doesn't. Stupid half a second stutters and skipping me back where I was half second ago is frustrating as hell.
Read this morning to try the game in Win8 compatibility mode. Was running fine for about 3 minutes and I was in shock because I thought it solved it. Then the stutters came back, doh!

Yeah, I usually take this approach with a lot of games for reasons like this, especially since I play on PC where people are even more fine with shipping buggy ass games...
Some of the issues are in the core design (server side stuff instead of client side) and may never be 'fixed' to where they are on par with BF3.
I'm not crashing anymore, but the netcode really bothers me. I hate mutual kills.

YAY, I'm finally getting a decent framerate!!!
And it's maxed out too! Looks amazing, ugh, I think?..
Is that duke nukem...
What What?
Is that duke nukem...
I'm not sure, let me get my binoculars.
Oh and for the record, I know I am CPU bound, so dont go tellin' me (Although that is disappointing since I just got myself an i5)
On most maps I can max it out at an average of 60 at 2048x1152, (GTX 770) with a seemingly all to frequent minimum of ~47 (after the levelution events).
Gotta go get a cooler to OC this thing.

Ahh new page. Gotta make sure to mention HOW MUCH I HATE BATTLEPACKS.
Why? You get a gold every level above 50. I have more boosts than I think I can use before I hit 100 (64).
Yeah, I thought it was just me initially, but it really hurts progression...
It has been a bit better for me today, but hopefully there is an update soon.

Two things I learned tonight....
1)I thought by opening Battlepacks from Battlelog would enable XP boosts automatically. Just found out tonight you actually have to click on them from the game screen. I feel like an idiot.
2)I unlocked the MK11 MOD 0 tonight. Fucking beast. Game changer for me. Such a versatile weapon. LOVE IT.

Haha, I need to try that.
Dont understand it, what's happening?

The M2 slam is a mine that you can stick to vehicles. Brushing the helo made them explode.
And you get unharmed?

It appears so. I'm going to try it with an ATV today to see how that works out

they need to have a points system where you slowly bleed points if you are not
a)capping/uncapping
b)getting kit points via heals/revives/repairs/resupply etc
c)getting suppression assist/avenger kills.
Permanently suppressed if not capping an objective after a minute, suppression to signify that the player is a moron and not to be trusted.
Yeh we just lost a game because people would rather camp rooftops than play the game.
/rage
also, first real foray into the assault rifles. Easymode weapon. AK-12 can hipfire a fool at midrange lol

Did you try to update PB manually?
Might sounds really stupid, but how do I go about doing that?
Yeah fuck it. CTD on every match today. Hell I don't think I can go 20 mins without a crash at this stage. Wouldn't have minded it that much if battlelog wasn't fucking up the whole time.
'You are in queue ..... Joining server ... reserving slot ..... connecting ..... something went wrong'.
I really like this game, more so than BF3 even. But between the latency hiccups (even when my ping is 12), the crashes and the general janky bugs ... I'm just not enjoying myself.
Leaving the game until there is some more stability.

Try the AKU-12. Laser sight + ergo grip + compensator = insanely good recoilless hipfire. Throw an angled grip + heavy barrel on instead and you have nearly-recoilless ADS + good hipfire monstrosity. I'd call the gun overpowered if it weren't for the middling rate-of-fire.
The game has been pretty stable for me (I'm on PC). No crashes so far. I do have some audio glitches on some maps though; Golmund Railway and Lancang Dam. It's like a subset of the audio disappears, and it's gone for the rest of the duration of the game. Anyone experience something similar?
If you need a compensator on the AKU-12, you are doing it wrong. It's arguably the most tame gun in the game, right up there with the SAR-21. I see Levelcap and some others advocating these brake/compensator crutches as ways to 'tame' guns when most guns are flat out better than their BF3 equivalents and the recoil compensation is something you can easily do yourself. It's just not worth a 30% accuracy penalty on a lot of guns.
The only place I can really advocate using them is on LMGs, due to the need for sustained fire vs precision fire. If you are really bad at controlling guns, anything with a ROF >750 could use one.

there should be a universal field upgrade with ammo as a first, playing DOM/TDM and i have not yet reached the second upgrade more than 2/3 times and when i do it's bugged
Try using burst mode with it. I really like it, feels so good.
I suspected they were going to sell them, but maybe (with the current uproar about issues) they've decided to hold that back for now.

There are already unmarked fast-vehicle-spawn servers out there, shitting up the community. This game just isn't going to have the legs of BF3.....
Knife only, Pistol only, they're all out there. Funny thing, the Knife only shows up as Official and Ranked.
I had it happen last time I was on Golmund Railway Conquest.
