Two things I've never understood about battlefield:

1) Why they even waste resources on making a campaign
2) Why people even play and then complain about the campaign

It's like people who buy track cars and then complain about how stiff the suspension is driving in the city. Sure it CAN drive it through a city but the car was designed for the track, just like battlefield was designed for MP.

1) Cuz some folks play SP, you cant compete against COD without a SP campaign.
2) Dunno, specially the "LOL SP CAMPAIGN!!! BF IS ALL ABOUT MP" crowd

Spent just over 21 hours in Multiplayer so far. Top score/skill/kdr/score per minute /accuracy/total kills/win loss ratio for my city. Then again, I have played 7 time more than the 2nd guy on the list. I cant really name any huge gripes I have with the gameplay so far. The only things that are noticeable are sound glitches. My favorite gun so far is the SAR-21, with an IRNV scope, I've spent 2hr12mins with it, and have a 1.15 KPM and 17.66% accuracy(over accuracy of 9.61, never has been my strong point)

ugh twice the server i was playing on went down and some how i lost my progress

Twice...oh boy are you in for a treat. It took me like 2 hours to get from rank 9-10 because either server crashes or I got the "BF4 stopped working" error. I would complete like 1 in 5 games. It was fine most of the day, but started to get worst around 11pm est.

Hopefully they patch it soon. Also to let others know, RealTek audio updated their drivers..haven't tried them yet, but maybe that could fix something.

1) That's a mistery that will prevail on centuries ahead
2) In this game you must play SP to unlock certain weapons on MP.

Has anyone got BF4 to recognize Mouse button 4 and 5? I'm using a Steel Series Sensei and those button maps aren't working...

I'm using the same mouse and it works for me. Keep in mind that there is a separate column for mouse bindings in the control menu.

It is a lot easier to now know if a server has DICE official settings. Also to be a quickmatch server you need DIEC official settings so there should be more of them available.



In battlelog, Solider > Loadout

When connected to a server but viewing battlelog you can also change loadout or view battlescreen easily, both have buttons on the bottom blue bar.

Oh...For console?

Has anyone figured out how to adjust the opacity of HUD elements? I don't mean the map or ammo count, that can be adjusted via menus. I am referring to revive, objective, and vehicle icons on your screen.

They can just be too cluttered and make it far more difficult to see enemies in certain situations.

Since yesterday, my game has frozen 6 times. Most recent was a game where I was 14 and 0 in the attack chopper :(

Try this

Reinstalling punkbuster and directx could be another fix as well. Apparently Origin isn't great about installing these the first time.

Reloading in a multiplayer match causes an enemy to appear nearby to shoot you while you're defenseless. I've reported this as a bug in every BF game in history...

Surely choosing better times and places to reload is better advice.

I do love the staggered reload system in BF4 now though, such a vital addition to any FPS game really

Wow, Test Range is exactly what this series has been desperately needing. Spawns all the vehicles instantly so you can learn to use them, gives you enemy stuff to shoot at, and it's private.

So I never played the BF3 campaign, but is it really worse than BF4s campaign? How is that even possible? Granted, I've only played the first two missions, but my god, Shanghai was god awful and makes me want to not even waste my time with it anymore. I don't blame reviewers docking points for that mess, DICE should be embarrased to have shipped something that poorly made.

3's campaign was about on par as 4, both were pretty bad. 4 just is nicer looking and has some cooler presentation with certain set pieces.

That's strange. I have the same mouse and it worked fine in the beta. Can't comment on the retail version though, as it hasn't unlocked here yet.

I wonder if the memory leak of the Battlelog that is supposed to be fixed today will fix my constant crashes...

1) They are competing with COD more directly.

2) I want a bigger toy than the neighboor kid but my new toy sucks.

This game is fucking insane!

These urban maps are crazier than anything ive seen in BF. Holy shit, it really brings home how scary urban warfare is. How the hell are console players going to deal with how vertical these maps are. I always had trouble with vertical levels on console fps games.

My post was made in jest xD

Yeah, picking your reload times carefully is essential. But reloading is also something I do without thinking sometimes and I will instantly regret it.
