Completely agree. The maps in bf4 are pretty awful for rush, it needs 200% tickets and the netcode kills it.
I was also 99% rush in bf3.
I mean when it works, BF4 feels faster to me and the maps are a huge huge huuuuge improvement over BF3.
Then again ive never played Rush in BF3. lol

Battlelog question if anyone can answer. I noticed that the battlog app on my phone filters servers a lot better and shows more servers available, but you can't filter region on it. Do you guys happen to know if there is a way to filter region? does it do it automatically (doubt this)?

Rush has never been back up to BC2 levels.
Played it for a bit on PC with Supper, but the auto-balancing during matches on PC is terrible so I couldn't be bothered. Same goes for BF4.

"Easy" way to unlock the F2000 is by playing CTF. 30 minutes of pure choke Metro gameplay because nearly no team manages to get the enemies flag. Nearly rage quit at the end because the game mighr show every ribbo you get during the game except the kill-assist ribbon.

Hey, BC1 rush also damn good.
Highlights usually being the final M-Coms in each map.
Except for the final M-Coms in Ascension, never liked that placement.

The BC2 Rush level design almost reminded me of CoD level design, in a way. It generally followed the kind of "three lane" approach to the MCOMs, although on a much larger scale than CoD maps obviously. There was a lot of room for flanking.
Man, I miss BC1. The guns felt so good.

DICE said:
What? No they didn't. I like BC1, but the gunplay was AWFUL. Slot machine damage is a no-no.
Compare BC1's out of bounds and map design to BC2's ons, weep at the face DICE doesn't make the defense paranoid/stick to their base while giving the attackers a LOT of lee-way in how they want to get to the bases.
My major issues with Rush were mostly solved in that:
Portable AA (and mobile AA) have become threats to helicopters to where helicopters can't circle around maps as a tank of doom (generally) like they could in BC1 or 2 (though 1 had "small arms fire" damage like BC2 Vietnam did).
Destruction on crates (stupid, and allows trolls. Now people have to GET in close and arm/disarm which means TEAMWORK to cap and hold)
Destruction on buildings holding crates (BC1 didn't collapse but let the crate be WIDE OPEN to Objective Harm, whereas they were auto-taken on building collapse in BC2. BF3 knee-jerked a little too hard to where defense was STRONGLY favored but BF4 [IMO] has gotten the balance near right. The major issue with BF4's Rush is stupid Set design in addition to the maps)
You can probably do it in Sabotage as well, but that park makes it nearly impossible to get consistent kill assists.
Please understand.

Port Valdez. Had so many great games on that map.
I'm still waiting on them to give DICE dogtags out in BF3 like Bungie did the Flaming Recon helmet that was "Bungie Exclusive" on "Bungie Day," 7/7 like... three or four years back.
The auto-balance isn't as strong in BF4 and generally people will wait until the end of round. Now they have auto-scramble scripts that'll sort of help as well but if you're playing with someone it's kinda bullshit.
BF3's auto-balance was pretty bad because it kept doing it in the middle of rounds to where people that were winning would be screwed by people rage-quitting.
But really, stats have gotta go if they want people to stick to rounds.

Yeah, the damage models were godawful, and the hit detection was too. But I just mean in the sense of the recoil models. They just felt good to shoot. That was one of my biggest issues coming off the bad company games to BF3. The guns just felt so...stiff.

Arica Harbor and Port Valdez were god-tier.
Yup. On a lot of BF3/BF4 rush maps, there are still "alternate routes" but it's more of a "yeah, sure, you can go that way, good luck" rather than actually well-designed routes.
Hey there's a 996MB patch on PS4!
Do we have patch notes?
Edit:
PS4 Game Update Feb 21
-Fix for an issue where spawning into, or switching to, a gunner seat in an IFV/MBT sometimes could cause the game to crash
-Fix for missing sound in Team/Squad Deathmatch
-Fix for an issue in the Defuse game mode, where a bomb carrier would be permanently spotted
-Decreased the rate at which the kill card would incorrectly display 0 health, while the enemy was clearly alive
-Fix for an invisible wall that was incorrectly present in one of the fallen concrete pipes on Zavod 311
-Fix for an issue where bullet impact sounds weren’t properly matching the actual number of impacts, causing the players to feel that they died too quickly.
-Fix for an issue where the “Draw” message would not display on-screen once a Conquest round ended with both teams having the same amount of tickets
-Fix for an issue where long IDs wouldn’t scroll on dog tags
-Fix for missing grass physics in terrain
-Fix for an issue where the player camera would be positioned inside of the soldier when parachute spawning
-Fix for a MAV exploit that let players reach various out-of-map locations

I miss my bro's.
If it doesn't say it does, it doesn't.
Most of the time, even if it says it does, it still doesn't.

You are missed as well. While Rush sucks of course and we haven't really been touching it, we have been getting 8+ people consistently on Conquest and have been rolling big time. You can always go buy another PS4 and rejoin the fun.

I couldn't agree more. I can put up with the occasional crash, but when you're rubberbanding what's even the point?

BC1 had better hit detection than BC2, BF3 and BF4!

yeah, i got it the next time Firestorm came up. i got my Sniper ribbon by shooting people on the tower from the surrounding area and i got the 5 kills from the tower with the shorty, sniper and C4'd some dude who was pushing the button.
i play with CQGAF, RushGAF (basically just Dawn) and OblitGAF all the time!
Quoting for anyone having trouble with the assists. That really is all you have to do--whip out the LVG inside* Metro and just launch indiscriminately.
And to add to what Faceless was saying, a lot of people seem to think that you have to be up on top of the tower or using a sniper rifle for the Eagle's Nest assignment. You don't, and you also don't have to get the five kills in a row. So you can play somewhat normally and upon noticing enemies on the tower, go up, kill them with whatever you have, bail and repeat later if you have to. Still need the six sniper rifle kills for the ribbon in the same round, but you can get those anywhere.
Those assignments are pretty dumb, but not really as difficult as they seem.
*Playing CQ, I still haven't seen the outside of this map apart from the initial Russian spawn. With 64 players the U.S. side is so fucked. Made it as far as the ticket booth once and counted that shit as a win.

So true, there are alternate routes, but it's hardly workable for flanking. Both are god tier in bfbc2.

Yeah i thought it was like obliteration. Which is the new rush, by the way. Awesome hectic fun

Arica Harbor, Isla Inocentes, Valaparaiso and Port Valdez were all top tier.
DICE should bring back BC2 maps...

Arica and Valparaiso (dat blackhawk) yes, the others not so much. The other 2 were super linear, especially port Valdez. I would take Nelson bay of all maps over port Valdez, any day.
