Wish i could agree but sprinting for any more than a few yards hurts like shit as i'm trying to keep my thumb from sliding off the stick. Really wish they had gone with the Xbox stick placement.

Damn.. stick placement for FPS like BF4 is actually my main concerne i have comming from the xbox corner.
I had no chance to try the DS4 yet but i already heard that the resistance of the sticks is harder than on the new xbone controller, which is great because i prefer that for shooters.
People still having problems with the placement of the sticks raises my concerns again tho :\
Hope i will be fine with it..
Weird. I rented Battlefield 4 to play the campaign and I'm really enjoying it so far. The graphics are amazing, the action is intense and the it's just plain fun. Not really sure what there is here to fault. I'm having as much with this as I did Killzone.
Thanks for the warning. I've not experienced any issues so far. I'm making sure to up my save to PSN, just to be safe.
The plane actually shuts down the engine when the TV missile is fired, so you wont crash immediately while operating the missile. Makes you a really easy target though. I prefer laser guided or rocket pods because of this.
Also the JDAM is too weak. It should get a huge buff and increased reload times.
I haven't seen any 2nd Assault maps with people playing via the game browser. Tried changing all my settings to no avail.
After reading up on this, if you use battlelog on a PC, you can find servers people are playing on and launch from there. Crazy but seems true this may be the only way right now.

So DICE thinks the PC community is happy with a double xp week and a scope for a pistol? Well gee, thanks guys! I will instantly forget about the crashes and the progress that got flushed down the drain.
What a world we live in.

Why are the LMG's still so inaccurate after the beta? Was a problem then, is a problem now. I should not have to pulse the trigger when I am 2 feet from someone.

A couple of free maps should be in order. Some BF3 rereleases to keep the development time down seems fair.

I don't know how easy it would be to patch that. I've only seen the drastic drops when 50+ people are spamming grenades at the one choke point on PS4. It doesn't always slow down, which I found surprising.

Fucking good.
Sick of getting one shotted all the time. Usually if I die I think "Damn I shouldn't have ran out there" but the one shot thing is just annoying
Came across an aimbot guy last night on Hainan Resort. He stood at the top of the resort and insta-killed about 40 people in the first 10 minutes of the match.
I was getting so pissed off before I realized he was hacking. No matter where I'd hide he would always pop my head off the moment I peeked out from cover.
The good news is that in 53 hours of play time this is the only obvious hacker I've come across.

Why on earth should tanks be destroyable with 1-2 rockets? They'd be absolutely useless. I'm glad they're stronger than they were in BF3. By the end of BF3's lifespan, tanks were fragile as hell.
Also, use the SRAW or RPG. MBT LAW has the nice auto-target thing but is weak as hell.

Anyone else really liking the head tracking / leaning w/ Kinect?
This is why I went PS4 only this time around. I saw so many aimbots in BF3 after it was out only a month.
please don't hack the PS4 SKU
Two to disable, three to destroy was fine.
Five to destroy is ridiculous. Makes engineers useless 1 vs 1 against tanks, yet Support and Recon can be supreme, 1-hit kills with C4 still. I don't consider that balanced.

Is there any way to edit your loadout outside of a match? (Xbox One)
I haven't tried the companion app yet...

I agree. It's impossible to kill tanks as a lone engineer.

You can do it through Battlelog
I'm not really sure how I feel about this.
One of the big negatives is that there is no silenced RPG, so the first shot the tank knows exactly where you are. In BF3, you could work it so you could survive getting in two more shots... in BF4, you're pretty much dead.
On the other hand, tanks in BF3 were way too fragile.
As someone who primarily plays Engineer, I'm still 50/50 on the change. Tanks should be powerful and scary. I tend to use mines a lot more in BF4... and the fact that they stick around after you die is pretty useful.
Does anyone know the exact rules of mine persistence? How long do mines stick around after you die? Until you place new ones? Can you only have 3 mines placed at a time?

How do I revive someone? Hit right trigger or hold it down? Don't think I've ever revived anyone but I've tried.
Starting up with planes before you get heatseekers is always so hard for me because I kinda suck.
Well on this one map, an enemy C-130 insta spawned every time it was blown up. I don't know how that thing spawns or anything but I killed it over and over. Got a ton of kills and got several attack jet levels. Was pretty fun but seemed like a bug.
Does commander spawn the C-130? Is this a regular occurance?

Difference between a engi with a launcher and support/recon with C4 is that the C4 user has to brave the field and get next to the tank, plant 2-3 charges, then retreat and detonate it to score a kill in most cases. A engineer can engage from a multitude of ranges and, with the exception of two launchers, retreat to cover immediately after firing. This allows the engineer to survive more of his encounters. It is risk versus reward, the C4 user risks more and gets a bigger payout if successful.
Engineers also have a variation of this with repair torches or SLAMs. SLAMs are arguably better than C4, unless they have/will get nerfed, because you do not have to retreat to detonate, you just have to stick them on and it will be a kill the moment the enemy picks up speed, even if you are killed.
You can do both, but the longer you charge up the defibs the more health the player will have when he gets revived. Just quickly hitting the trigger will give him around 20 health I think.
If you hit the trigger it will revive the person giving them 20 health. If you hold it down long enough you can revive them with full health.
I don't think there has even been a patch for it yet on any platform. That post was just to discuss that they are aware of the issue and they know how to fix it.
Let me confirm.

Just have to agree to disagree. In no way do I think that a single engineer should be able to easily destroy a tank. In BF, it is rare that there is one engineer around in any given moment.
Support and Recon have the increased risk of getting close to the tank. I stopped using tanks in BF3 because they felt useless after a while with such short lifespans.
Until Symthic releases data on explosives, I can't be sure, but I do think you're correct.
What a lot of people don't realize is that the angle of your shot also affects your damage dealt. You don't always have time to angle a perpendicular shot, but if you're shooting at a tank from 45 degrees to the front, don't expect to take it down.
Nope, another design decision from Dice that is idiotic.
Same on all platforms btw.

They won't.
I get killed in a tank far more often by C4 than by Engi rockets.
And in BF3, I already found it quite easy to sneak up on tanks as Support to destroy tanks in one blow.
I think C4 needs to be nerfed, honestly. No loading up on charges to go straight for the one hit destroy. Maybe one hit disable would be more fair.

Whoa, I did not know you could charge it - I just assumed they had nerfed the defib to be 20 every time. Very smart change.

What insult? It's common knowledge that Black Friday is this weekend.
The whole 'I suspect you're not very good at finding good deals' insult. It was completely unnecessary. I know about Black Friday, but I forgot about the upgrade from current gen to next gen for $10 thing. Whatever man. Defend being an ass if you want.

3 and they stay until they are destroyed or you place another.
On PC you can change your loadout via Battlelog. Just hover over the soldier tab and then a drop menu and then loadouts...

That works for all platforms.
That's good to know!

IIRC, Hardcover (no map) had no overhead HUD in BF3. Had to shoot and then check full map to see where shots landed.
RPG... Don't try to be a human highlight reel, just use A Stinger.

Anyone else having frame rate slow in conquest (PS4) is this a server issue or the PS4 cannot handle it?
Sometimes the framerate dips for me, yeah
