Battlefield 4 |OT2| Is it fixed yet?
- Thread starter Overdoziz
- Start date
Done that a few times on Sabotage. Effectively clearing out a bomb site that has about 10-15 players covering it when my team is pushing toward it. Feels good, man.
Problem is getting it to those hot-zones if there is another enemy commander and they know that EMP's will destroy the missile so they wait until the last second to put an EMP up. Still dunno how to mind-game them into doing an EMP before I launch.
Yes. Exactly.

Def the better game
* Pre Orders Premium Edition *
So you're preordering in... six months after launch? Smart move, probably given BF4's state at launch.
No shit at the spoilered info..... I hate that. I actually just joined a server not but two days ago as commander because I hit the wrong button and I'm like.... WTF is this? Then... I started figuring out that if you have players who understand their benevolent commander, you rack up major points!!

This guy was streaming PS4 Hardline (closed beta), they banned his origin account but you can still watch the recording of his stream. You can see Conquest (with more than just a few players) if you skip forward to 04:16:30.
I'm curious about how they will balance the scout and attack helis, since Engineers no longer have rockets and those are just rare battle pickups.
Graphics looked nice and it seemed the game ran at a very smooth (probably 60fps?) framerate. I did notice some rubberbanding here and there tho.
Edit: bah looks like twitch just banned his channel too.

I like it. Def beta though.
Bit of a learning curve and unlocks are unsurprisingly grindy.

*pours one out for the homie*
Oh, BATTLEFRONT. Bleh. Everyone knows it's all about that Mirror's Edge Reeboks or whatever edition (Nike? Just Parkour?)

So, guys what did you do today?
"Well, Seks, I did--"
NO1CURR.
Survived the Hunger Games.
ALL ON SOFTCORE.
Now ready for the second part of whatever that stupid ARG is. *puts bow to rest?*
I can't quit you bow. While you're frustrating as shit to use you're fun as hell as a challenge.

If its not conquest its not real Battlefield.
*groan* Yes, because revolving flags is the only mode Battlefield can do.
OH WAIT, Bad Company, BF3, and 4 have proven that DICE can do other modes when they put their fucking minds to do. Too bad they have to be LAZY and one-size-fits-all the fucking modes together on maps.

BFBC2 Rush was pretty cool. Unbalanced and broken on some maps but pretty fun.
I voted Arica Harbor when they made the poll asking for maps to be remade.

So, I caved on that PS4 deal for BF4+Premium for $23.99, since it had all the DLC plus the base game even though I thought I was a fucking huge idiot at first for buying this since, I've had the PC version since launch and I like the game in Alpha and Beta when it worked...
The thing is though, the final game was a technical mess on Windows 7 and for a lot of Windows 8 users.
The game itself felt completely different, each patch made the game feel worse and worse and there were more and more technical issues when others were solved.
I gave the game three more chances after it's supposedly been fixed on PC and still even though many of the performance issues are ironed out, I still don't like the community on the servers I could get on, there was still issues with rubberbanding and lag which is amazing since usually I have no trouble in any other games including BF3.(if you can find a match...) The worst though was probably the community on the servers I played, in which no one PTFO and pretty much every single person was a recon, and the crap they said in the chat caused me to turn it off.
They released the game completely half baked on all platforms, it took until now and the PS4 version plus all DLC(Auto snap off) to really consider that BF4 isn't a gigantic pile of shit. I also really love the lean mode implementation with the motion sensor in the DS4, it's pretty useful for both freelook in vehicles and for ADS independent lean while standing still.
I've actually played seamless matches of this on PS4 compared to what I was able to play on PC comparatively considering I don't have premium on PC. Everything feels and plays better on the PS4 and looks almost as good as Ultra but probably closer to high, the biggest killer in IQ honestly is the 900p resolution and the performance while surprisingly smooth most of the time, it can have some pretty steep dips. I can definitely say that 1080P would help a lot in making this game look even better, also a stable 60fps which admittedly on PC is wonderful alongside the AA and extra AF.
I can say I kind of like it, and makes me kinda want to get premium for the PC version on the cheap and give it another shot for a nice boost in framerate and IQ. I also kind of just wanted something for my PS4 to give it more attention.
I felt burned by BF4 and DICE more so than with BF3 even though I really liked it a lot, even though the expansions were better than all the maps and loaded faster which somehow is still a fucking problem, since most of the original core maps in BF4 in my opinion are garbage this really isn't a huge issue unless I want to play Zavod, Flood Zone, Hainan, or Paracel Storm.
I feel a little bit of a good will, but I am still worried about Battlefront.

Not really a throwaway. My main recently received a copyright strike for a video I uploaded last year and they limited video length to 15 minutes.

No one can take that title from you
You missed the first two shots. I'm not impressed.
Ugh, teammates I generally play with changed time(s) = bad times when they aren't available.
I can only do so much against five people, pubbies.
@Faceless: If you're going to "Shadowplay"/Capture Card/SharePlay/whatever now for Hardline:
You might want to follow this tip due to Youtube?

Make sure you download each DLC from the store.
Rgr that. Then I should be able to launch the game sans disc?
Nice, it really is so much fun being an an anti-air tank.
Even though I'm not Faceless, thanks for the heads up.

Hey I did one those tank heli majiggers too.
Alight, so advice to anyone who has the disc and no premium yet....
Make sure all your saves are backed up via whatever method you want and then delete your local content for BF4.
Buy BF4: Premium
Download BF4: Premium + the Premium unlock
Then download ALL DLC.
Once that is done, you'll be able to enjoy the $23 dollar goodness of digital only premium.
Shout out to those who helped me figure that out. What is a used copy of Vanilla BF4 going for these days?

BF4 Premium Edition is on sale for $24 on PSN/XB Store, rendering the disc obsolete.
Nope. The PSN sale is for BF4: Premium which is the entire solo game, premium features, ALL DLC's (which is amazing...) and a crap ton of battlepacks.
Yup.

Oh Premium Edition. I thought you were referring to have Premium itself and not needing the disc any longer.
