Just hit level 9. Someone dun fucked up with the indirect fire perk. Instead of giving you more mortar shots, it gives you another mortar... so when you run out with one, you drop the other, spam away. You can literally fire it as fast as it will cycle. I immediately got another mortar. If this is as intended, the DICE guy in charge of balance should be shot, along with the guy who hired him.

Not many people have figured it out yet but when they do, expect mortar spam from the skies.

Yes... YES!!

I know what class to play first.

These screens look amazing. Apart from some of the crazy resolutions, I really hope this game looks almost as good on PS4.

I can't even fathom how that can make it into a shipping build.

This is the first time I'll be experiencing a midnight release digitally. This is much nicer than standing out in the cold with a bunch of other nerds.

It'll be even better if you wait for it on PS4! Imagine that feeling you'll get when you see it for the first time in all its next gen glory!

I'd at least wait until tomorrow when we get a lot of console footage and comparisons.

NO, buy physical release and sell it when you get the next gen version or do the 9.99 upgrade.

Anyone post this yet? BF4 PC Campaign review

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrzejFv0T40

TL;DW
Runs well on mid to high end PC on high settings, more optimized than the beta, overly cinematic and on the rails, actual story was boring, forgettable, and dull, and overall singleplayer tacked on just to compete with Call of Duty. Don't buy BF4 for singleplayer, multiplayer is where it's at.(His opinion, obviously)

Must...stay...strong and not buy this on PC just to play single player. I really should just wait for the PS4 version, but I have a weakness for teh graphics.

Come on, is it REALLY that fucking hard to come up with a decent modern military shooter storyline?

I don't expect every game to be fucking Spec Ops, but Jesus, they could at least try.

It was better than three. I don't know what the guy was expecting. Some nice memorable moments, destruction, all the goodies. A lot better than three's campaign, actually. Teaches players how to use a lot of the online stuff.

"on rails" is just false for some parts, which are wide open.

Well nice if my retailer doesn't break the street-date I will get it only on the 31st :( On the other hand, I hope my i5 3570k Ivy Bridge and my 7970 are ready for this! :D

I have a 7970 and a i7 4770k (and 16GB of RAM.) Bring it, DICE!

Also, NHHHHGGGG, just imagining Battlefront in Frostbite.

I guess it is haha. I find that usually Tom Clancy games have the best stories when it comes to shooters(to me anyway, and they don't exactly have that much competition genre wise). I didn't really expect much out of BF4's story but, I was optimistic. I'm hoping COD Ghosts can bring a decent story. Or maybe KZ:Shadowfall.

I remember BF3 got ranked down on reviews because of the poor campaign, I was just hoping they wouldn't make the same mistake and lose some points because of it.

I wouldn't put much faith in Killzone, I heard the ending of 3 is like one of the worst of the generation (never played it).

Still managed an 89 on Metacritic, the shitty campaign didn't really bring it down that much, as far as reviews go.

I should probably get back to the campaign to get some of those sweet mp unlocks... Bah, too much fun to be had in the meantime.
