haha, good thing he stopped right above you.
That's the useless guy who was whoring the AA from our spawn. I'll report him when I get back from my taco adventure.
Lol so that's how it went.

Oh fuck you. Gimlet and I 1 - 2'd a server as the only guys with 10k points each and the battle report is missing. In fact, a lot of BRs from tonights game are missing.

Oh man, I don't know if I just was not in the mood (I don't think I was), but I really dislike Conquest mode. It just feels so... empty? Souless? Chaotic.
But that could also be because I had like NO sounds other than gunfire and radio-chatter. Is that a new thing? Or is that how it is? Or is it a bug... I was so confused.

Unacceptable. Get with the fucking program DICE
Where did they say no plans for party menu?
Sweet got the single player 100% done (all trophies and everything) without my save corrupting. It wasn't terrific or anything, and I wish there had been a trophy to sacrifice Irish down all three times, but it was better than Battlefield 3. The points system kind of gave me a goal beyond "Go here, do this", which was a welcome improvement.
Now I can sit back and enjoy nothing but multiplayer!
Finally got into 64 player Conquest. Was fun for a time, though it's really easy to die and hard to do anything objective-wise without dying. Paracel Storm is my favorite map so far, though it almost felt like I was running below 60fps (PS4) at some points after the storm kicked in. And then I hit lag central. Boo!
Cool that DICE is recompensing us early adopters for their muddy launch. I've got to ask though... as someone who is pretty dumb about guns, why do so many games seem to worship the M1911 pistol? I see it in almost any shooter that includes both handguns and real-world weapons, and Battlefield 4 even has a trophy dedicated to the thing.

And to think they actually originally let you group up on BF3 PC in BattleLog with friends, and join at the same time, and then they removed it .....
It's the granddaddy of all handguns.
In reallife the Glock G17 is the most used pistol because it's the most reliable gun ever created
It's automatic now. The game will put friends in the same squad. If the teams are too unbalanced you might still end up on the opposing team, but the server will move you to your friends team and squad as soon as the teams are balanced. I've noticed it being a bit janky at times, but when it is I think its down to not everyone that wants to be in the same squads are friends on Battlelog.
I think it works well enough.
If we're talking semiautomatic, then what about the Mauser C96?

My god DICE. Did you do any fucking QA with this game? Two days in a row I've had this game lock up on the end screen of the round, which corrupts my profile save. It doesn't fix itself neither, every time I reboot the game I get the welcome new player shit. I actually had to recover a save from my online ps+ storage to fix it. And now I'm not even mentioning the numerous crashes etc. that just happen randomly. I have never played such a bugridden AA game ever. For such a huge and experienced developer you should be fucking ashamed of yourself, every single one of you, for even putting this out there in this state. This game is nowhere near done and it's been weeks since launch already. And I'm not even talking about the PS4 version.

It was prob me. I joined a game that someone with the PSN name LazyKarl was in and we were running a pretty vicious 2 man tank team on Golmud Railway. Next match I crashed out of Locker and called it a night.
I noticed a bunch of gaffers from my friends list joined the same matches and remember killing one or two familiar names.

This. We really need to ruffle some feathers if need be. I will be returning my copy. Ill re buy down the road if it's added, but with a this I don't see myself returning to the series. What a fall from grace dice.
I have people joining my games all the time, i just don't really notice it until they kill me or vice versa lol. Deffinetly have had gaffers in my games, it was just the gaf tag that i was sure i haven't seen before that game
I take it back. After 15 crashes back 2 back (even after two resets and installing updated drivers), fuck you Dice.
By far this has been the most unpleasant PC experience I've ever had. I can't even think of a game that has been broken this badly and not fixed to at least be playable so long after release.
If I had the option I'd refund this game in an instant and revisit it once it hits humble bundle prices.

True. The Mauser came out before the M1911. But in terms of popularity and still being used in modern combat? The M1911 holds that. It's a pretty popular firearm among people because of it's design choices and stuff.
It's like asking why the AK-47 is popular in some circles. It's an old gun, yes. But it's a reliable piece of firearm tech that can be counted on when it needs to be.
I guess that makes sense. A gun design that old yet still remaining popular is a pretty big testament to it's worth.
Wikipedia did say that the Mauser is still used in some militias today though, so that's something. I guess it's not the U.S. military, but...

Oh, wow, Dice, you shouldnt have, double xp week?
Wha...what was that? On completion of a round?
Dice you useless fucks, I havent been able to complete a round for 4 fucking days.
Urgh
Ha, so true. Yesterday I got two 'blue screens' right after joining games. This is frustrating as hell.

Can I play with a guest on Xbox one? Back of the box says 2 to 66 for Xbox live.
Split screen? Not a chance I'm afraid.
I'm not sure, but I think all game-modes technically support as few as two players.

WHERE THA HELL IS MY COUNTER BUTTON DICE!
This here shows what I hate about the knife, even though he's more than 1 meter away from you he still just automatically locks you and you're stuck as soon as he presses the button.
I'd rather have manual knifing than animation based knifing
Agreed.
Hahah, that was awesome.

Is there a way to make party in BF4 for ps4? Have a friend that wants to party up. Thought there was ingame party support.

ugly but smooth
Mmm. Just for clarification, when you say "ugly" are you talking about native 720p instead of 900 like the PS4, or is it missing effects too?
I'm not too fussed on resolution, to be honest. So if it's just that I can manage.

I have both and I feel like I will play both. However I do think BF is the better game now that I can get in 64 player conquest.
Switching between the PC version and XBONE, XBONE is at the 'MEDIUM" settings. Quite impressive if you ask me , considering the XBONE CPU.
Haven't compared PS4 but my guess is in between medium and high

could never
You're not wrong there, I'm talking missing effects and textures wise is there really a difference apart from res? I'm not seeing it so far, then again I'm watching stuff on a very small screen right now.
