Battlefield 4 |OT2| Is it fixed yet?

To be honest after every game I'm always a little bit ashamed of myself...but I can't help it!
Everyone needs to feel how OP the MAA is at least once. When I use it I'll be sporting and sit just outside spawn (Though I will retreat like a bitch if heavy armor comes).

There was also a period when I would whore it on Dam because it was better than playing as infantry with all the rubberbanding. With the ridiculous sightlines on the map, I could bear to shoot at the opposing helis until they were out of spawn however,

Speaking of feeling dirty, I bailed from a chopper last night to end up on a building roof on flood zone and proceeded to mug the opposing team 24 times with the airburst. And that was with them being crushed on the ground at B & C. I'd feel guiltier, but things they didn't do:

A. Strafe me with the scout heli
B. Land on the higher roof and mug me
C. Counter airburst

Which is to say, these kids were terrible.

It'll be like last time, everyone will play on things OTHER than the GAF servers.

Maybe if it was Second Assault, you'd get B on it.

I'm pondering it as well. Working what maps I'd ditch from the rotation. Roght now Rogue, Golmud, Dragon Pass and Lost Islands top my list.

Servers are limited, I have to meet with a lawyer tonight and am not sure when I will be home. If you snag the server, I'll grab a $20 psn card and send you the code to use towards it. I would ditch flood zone.
 
In approximate order of greatness:

Silk Road
Operation Firestorm(much better than BF3 version)
Paracel Storm
Caspian Border
Altai Range
Dragon Pass
Wave Breaker
Nansha Strike

Are probably the best conquest maps in my opinion(obviously different maps for different modes). Vanilla is pretty bad in this game with only 1 representative in this list.

The worst conquest maps are Siege, Metro, Hainan. Really can't stand any of those 3.

The tease...

Maybe in the next client update?
 
Rented servers already broken. LOL, DICE.

UPDATE 4/29: We have identified rental time issues with the Rent-a-Server Program release on Xbox One and have temporarily removed the feature as we investigate. The servers which were already rented will still be available for play, but admins may not be able to access all the management features at this time. As soon as a fix is in place we will announce its availability.

200% rush ticket servers might make sense.

My preference in CQ maps, ranging from good to decent, in no particular order.

Locker
Dawnbreaker
Rogue
Zavod
Metro
Caspian
Firestorm
Oman
Guilin
Silk
Mortar

That would be a really ideal CQ rotation.

Not really. The difference there is "marksmen" REQUIRES 250 meters. Most of the maps aren't going for that sort of distance.

Add in that I'm getting 6+ sniper kills from the chest instead of the heads at those ranges and getting kills it's still a:

situation. Snipers are fine.

I was more bitching about the fact that marksmen ribbons are damn near impossible to get in a round at 150 meters when you're getting one-shot-kills in that range with most sniper rifles to the chest.

He's bitching about the follow-up shot at ranges greater than 150. Totally different.

200% rush ticket servers might make sense.

No they don't. 200% is wayyyyyyyy too many tickets, even in 64-players. Do you forget how often defense rounds were lost because the ticket burn was too few and the attackers had too great a reinforcement to where their lives mattered very little in the sets?

If anything the tickets should be 150% MAX for Rush and that's in 64 players. 100% for 32-players. Less if you want a "get arms or lose" situation. More than 150% is straight up bananas.
 
Alright, I bought a server: GAF East CQ.

80% Tickets, 125% vehicle spawn time.

Working out the map rotation yet because it only allows you use 15 maps.

Not sure how you guys did this in BF3, but I figure I'll hand out VIP slots for small donations or whatever.

Edit: No commander, either

Oh, so you're the psycho from that game. I have to say, even watching the video, I'm not sure how you knew I'd be coming for you.

Speaking of psychos, we ran into a dude last night with 10 k/d/. He used the chopper exclusively. I think the fine line between specialist and vehicle whore appears when you'll just sit and spawn waiting for the heli rather than actually PTFO. This guy has 17k kills with the helis, next nearest is 1k with Attack helis, and his tio weapon has 285 kills, which given his hours played is more likely a side-effect of bailing from a doomed chopper than willingly putting his boots on the ground, Geez.

Not that it needs saying, but the AC-130 on CA is stupid.

Old gripe, but been stuck in a wave of games with commander lately, and the UAV really breaks the game. For one, whats the point of being supressed. Two &#8211; it's BS you can't see where the UAV is on the map. At least let me know you've got me bent over.

Hey, I'm not a psycho! I just used good old situational awareness to predict I was about to be rushed there.

I could hear your silencer being fired and see my teammates dying in a pattern towards me on the minimap during that entire clip. You were heading in my direction based on that. After I killed SGTSeaCat I also heard your character yell "man down" followed by hearing your silenced gun kill another teammate directly below me. The safest place for someone to go once they are in that room is up my ramp to get to the 2nd floor of that building.

With a good pair of headphones and a Mixamp you can pretty much exactly pinpoint the location of someone using a silencer.

Commanders break the game. Period. I thought the feature would be cool but it's not.
