how is this possible?
I think the map is off or it was a server thing. If it makes you feel better, sensor balls are useless until you get the other sensor unlock or commander has uav.

Do you keep your stats a server disconnection happens? I just got booted out of a game where I was killin' em.

Yea, this has been a big issue for me. Mainly the Direct X error...seems to happen a lot when being the commander. The audio issue seems to be more map based for me.
I have a theory...Because I thought of this as well...I dont know why they wouldn't include something they have always included and something that really is expected in most games....but my theory is that since they had such problems getting it to work that they just scrapped it. Lets face it...it would take a patch or two before you and your friend could be placed in the same game..let along the same team. So they said screw it and removed it all together. Me and friend tried playing BF on xbox and gave up since we couldnt get in the same game..also the server browser doest work right..didnt work right in the beta...You cant search for servers with a certain number of slots open..
If the server crashes completely, then stats are lost.
If it is only you crashing, then the stats will be uploaded to battlelog when the match is over.
Every time I have disconnected from a game or crashed I have lost all stats no matter what. I've been keeping close track for a couple of days now, it really sucks :/

Man, that sucks!
Was having fun in Operation Locker =(
Such a great map
sorry if this questions were answered already but to be fair I am so busy playing this game that I have no time to check this thread 
So I have three questions.First is about goggles in campaign where you have to hold Q to look through them.They don't work,is it known issue?
Second is about key bindings,I can't bind gadget number 2 to mouse button.Everything along with gadget number 1 is working right but gadget number 2 is no go.
And why is it so hard for people to drop ammo boxes?

You pick a set and as you complete squad objectives you get points, when you get enough points you unlock the next perk for everybody in the squad. If the squad wipes you lose all progress.
A commander can also use his resource points to give squads upgrades now and then.
In other news I managed to play 3 rounds in a row without a client or server crash. I was almost thinking I'd reached utopia. Of course it crashed switching maps to the 4th round.

I don't think the round needs to be over. I just crashed midmatch, and Battlelog had already updated with my ribbons and xp without the match being over on the server. Pretty sure servers phone home with stats updates somewhat regularly throughout a match. That's been my experience in previous BF games too.

I'm loving the new maps, but I don't like the new gun mechanics at all. It seems like you don't really need to control your weapon as much as Bf4. It seems dumbed down.

Wait what? That is complete and absolute bullshit. I bought this game to play with friends and nothing else, and now you're telling me they removed the possibility? Their party-up system was always dodgy at best, but atleast you had the option. If I hadn't bought this digitally I would have returned it. The hell DICE?!
Try the Scar, that thing jumps.
My friend unlocked the heavy barrel and he said that the aiming gets much easier. Increases accuracy, while increasing recoil.

I'm downloading a 677mb update. Whats in it?

So far, yes. I think it's due to its "Down and out" nature and with a focus on spectator mode when dead, something in there. Hence why it's even more frustrating, imagine that happening while in a firefight and you don't respawn until the round is over.
Nothing but broken dreams. My game was stable before that stupid thing, completely unplayable after.

Seriously, I just let this game preload, I went out at 65% and now when I get home (3 hours later) it's sitting at 83% - paused.
FUUUUCK and I would be able to play in 15 min, now I have to wait one more hour.
Anyone else with this problem?

What I'm saying is that the aiming/recoil management is already too easy. I mean, I can understand why they did it, but I though the gunplay in 3 was perfection.

Why would you assume the post you're replying to tells the entire story? It doesn't.
Friends get dropped on the same team and same squad if possible when they join a server---by default---and if they can't be squadded/teamed up due to not enough open slots it regroups them on the next round.
Sure, you don't have a party system like bf3, but you don't need one. Have your squad leader pick a server and then dropzone the rest of the squad. bang, same server. be same squad and team too if at all possible. If it isn't possible it wouldn't have worked in bf3 either.

Still, some people would rather have the ability to get in a party pre-game and join a server all at once rather than each person joining separately and hoping they get in before it fills up.
Wow, got matchmade into a server with me being the only player on an team versus 5 players on defense.
Yeah. No.
and then got Matchmade on a Team that doesn't know what the word DISARM, HIT TANK, DEFEND means.

Why would you use the quick match feature?

lol, after playing an obliteration match for 50 minutes on Operation Locker I get disconnected. There goes all my points...

That worked so rarely in BF3 that my group stopped doing it. I mean sure, works great on an empty server.
We just get in mumble/ts3 and somebody picks a server. Get on, get on same team, squad up. We don't have to do the team/squad stuff in bf4, it does it for us.The argument being, everyone just ended up using M16 anyways which was no recoil.
I actually have to tap fire the scar to be anywhere near accurate at range. I'm not disagreeing with you, but the starting guns are left intentionally easy.

Spec Ops field upgrade at level 2 gives you six C4s. That is awesome. Small thing, but could drastically improve my score per life.
Haha, makes sense. My 780 should be here soon, I'll give it a shot with that. Thanks for letting me know.

For anyone who has played commander, does it function the same as BF2, regarding your presence in the game? I.e. are you still a soldier on the field that needs to find someplace to hunker down while you stare at the commander map?
And by extension, will we see commanders who don't do any real commanding, and just use the position to drop themselves supplies while they snipe on a hillside somewhere?

China Rising.
Because the server browser is broken beyond repair right now.
I know DICE reads this, so: Fix this fucking shit pronto. CTD's can wait. I can't join servers if I can't FIND them myself and have to resort to Demize's "lazy" way of finding games. >:|
