Stormy Gulf of Oman is so gorgeous.
CTF is quite fun until you hit Metro. 64 players on that map is a downright joke.

Played the game for the first time today and you guys weren't kidding about the bugs and glitches. Game runs like shit, I don't want to know how it was before the latest patches.
I also can't access my preorder battlepack. First I only get a Slim Jims silver battlepack instead of a gold one for the preorders, now I can't even download it from the PSN store or access it ingame. Used the code on the PSN webstore because I got my console late.

Better for me, now it's nearly unplayable for me.

I keep losing my cross hair when I'm using a shotgun and its not even hardcore...
Only major problem on 360 now is Dawnbreaker still freezes - at least in my experience, anyway. Other than that it has been pretty damn solid
...
Where is this camo? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
It's camo for your dude. You have to set it in-game.
'Camo' is for your soldier, 'paint' for vehicles and weapons.
I looked and it's not there though. IDK
I think I've read somewhere that camos can be locked to a certain faction.

http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/Appearance
Camos in this game are faction specific; this one can only be used for USA.
From this wiki it says:
Tricolor Desert - Battlepack Item, but cannot be equipped
So... I don't know. Sounds like a useless camo.
i wonder how much time was wasted on camos and their applications. its such a waste of time IMO. i dont appreciate camos, they dont have an impact on my enjoyment of the game, and i cant help but think several work weeks for a few employees went into this useless feature.
gotta keep up with the COD`s though.
i just cant get to liking this game after the glory that was BF3 for me. too many mechanics have changed, and for no good reason. none. fucking morons at DICE. and the maps fucking suck, especially for vehicles. fuck!

other accounts on the system get it too.
Yeah, I kinda agree. There's nothing wrong in giving people the ability to customize things and I wouldn't mind being able to customize the look of vehicles a bit more (it would probably be a nightmare to allow people to do full paintjobs though). But I just can't be bothered with camos since they don't adopt to the environment.

Weird. I love that map. Hate Flood Zone.

Flood zone is the worst map DICE have ever made. I'd rather play metro a month straight than that map once more.

Flood Zone is the Tehran Highway of BF4.

Thanks. Great news, as it's considerably cheaper in the US.

I actually really liked Flood Zone when I could free swim. Aiming doesn't seem to let you swim downward, now, so I can't loop through the bottoms of flooded buildings. Used to be amazing for flanking people.
Last time I tried I tricked it into letting me into the bottom of the parking garage, and then drowned when it trapped me against the ceiling.
...not so big a fan, now.

Happens to me with every gun I use.
You can target some points (I think 3 or 4) and then the bombs are falling automaticly, you can leave the bomber station after marking. It just takes some time till it hits.
I'm wondering about this. I read that you are supposed to be able to dive down to enter flooded buildings. Does anyone know how?
Just dive down and enter the building (where the entrance is).
Huh? They changed the swimming controls? I guess I should go to the test range and see, but why would they do that? It made sense to let people dive deep to avoid bullets being fired at them.
It's a bug, it happens with all guns and it's annoying as shit.

Moving around on the map sucks. Simple as that really. They made it so hard to move (which I realize was the point) but it's no fun to play.
Aim down and press the swim button. You have to know which buildings have an opening for you to swim under

Shanghai is probably the most balanced for vehicle or infantry play (though not attack helicopter). Zavod is probably second best for balanced play, and probably the best for squad infantry play. It's big enough to allow flanking and going behind enemy lines, but small enough (and with enough COVER!) to allow awesome confrontations to develop. The underground tunnel parts help quite a bit, too. Overall I think Zavod is the best map, and Flood Zone is the worst.
Lancang Dam doesn't even seem to be in anyone's rotation any more either, thanks to the early sound and rubberbanding bugs. I'm not even sure if they ever fixed them, but it's too late now.

Didn't work for any of my squadmates last night, at least. Will give it another shot tonight.
Arica Conquest blows so I don't want that map ever in my life again. Rush was pretty great, tho.

sounds like they fixed it to me. BF3's matches were unbearably long.
Arica CQ was so much fun! hiding in and popping people from inside the rubble.

Did vehicles always eject people so fast? I feel like I've been smashing into walls at speed a lot leaving Choppers lately.

Just got my PS4 with BF.Guys is this new where no hit markers on HC? Is it server related or like this by default?
If you leave a chopper wrong you get chopped up by the rotors and "killed in action"
DAMN DAMN DAMN
Kills or battle pack. Check battlelog

If it's battlepacks, it's kills either way since it's unlocked by getting more kills.
Yeah, you need to unlock battle pack. But i have unlocked a battle pack but i have not got it yet. What is a battle pack anyway? I have just bought a PS4 and BF4, never played a BF before, so you can say that i am an amateur.
New bullshit EA forced DICE to add because they were "popular" in Mass Effect 3's multiplayer.
THANKS
Basically anything you get for guns and stuff can be gotten in Battlepacks you unlock through ranking up or using a weapon enough. Weapon ones focus on the weapons, so generally try to use those over the general ones to get the unlocks for the guns you want faster instead of leaving luck to heaven or whatever the term is.

The ADHD gamers ate it up sadly. I remember the bitching about BC2 unlock system and it's far far worst now.

I dunno, PS3 unlocks were pretty fast. But doing them again on PC (I really need to get back to that...) has been REALLY badly long. But I partially blame that on my SPM diving on the PC version because after 800 hours on the PS3, I just can't... adjust to the "clunky" PC controls. Double-so after BF3/4 consolidated their keyboard and mouse controls while BC2 is wildly different.
@Ocho: Eh, I like Arica in Rush AND Conquest. Mostly because the battle was "Urban" I can see where you're coming from in terms of Conquest in some aspects (easy to base rape) but as far as the map itself? Love it.
