lol

It's not funny! It's a serious condition that afflicts certain BF players. I don't find it funny when I get flung in to a sandbag and my body is sent 3 miles into the air. Then I have to listen to that French one laugh at my pain.

*tear*

BASED DICE

I had that bug so many times. :3

 

[poppabk]

It seemed like the only thing not on sale for PC.

Its 20% off on gamersgate. My resolve finally crumbled only for gamersgate to not be able to process my credit card.

At least that's better than being roadkilled, surely?

You're no longer a target. There is a feud between Splinter DrunkenStuper and Norua DrunkenFrenchie DrunkenRapunzel
I think Stuper is winning so far.

in other things to lol about, remember when peeps were dissing DICE because KZSF ran at 1080p60?

You say this, but it'll be back on me again as soon as I'm back from being sick this weekend.

 

[PROGRAM_IX]

Whoops double post.

 

[PROGRAM_IX]

Golmund Railway is like Christmas morning if you're an engineer with a stinger. Love it.

Tried that other one - the one with the hold-lock - and had a lot of fun. The extra 100m range is pretty tashte.

Its 20% off on gamersgate. My resolve finally crumbled only for gamersgate to not be able to process my credit card.

I said screw it and pulled the trigger, heh, earlier tonight. No regrets yet.


Spamming RPG-7 in Locker. I feel dirty, but I laughed sooo much. God what a game.

Seks we are playing a non CQ mode

Holy shit and it's Capture the Flag as well. I guess I'll hop on a round or two while still recovering from being sick then.

And you leave after a round! *shakes fist*

Every time he tries to join us on a non CQ server.

We played a bunch and you missed it all.

 

[Astral/H3X]

I thought about playing the game.

Then I remembered that for no reason at all, it started unfailingly crashing upon load of the levels.
So no, uninstall it is.

@Splinter: Not my fault I got a cold.

 

[gregor7777]

Kill card shows 0 health
...
the kill card would show the health as predicted by your game client, rather than the health confirmed by the server... .

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Meaning, on my screen the my client predicted I killed the fucking guy, but your horseshit netcode says otherwise.

 

[scogoth]

So new glitch today. I was shooting someone while being shot and I didn't die. I looked at my health and it said 0.

 

[TheSeks]

Not really a glitch. That happened in BF3 occasionally. It's something like 0.5% health or something but the game's GUI rounds it down (weirdly) to 0%.

 

[terrible]

I've seen myself with 0 health a few times in BF4. Seemed more common in BF3 to be honest and those 100 assists were definitely way more common in BF3 too.

 

[thespot84]

has anyone seen:

a) framerate issues with second assault? i get around 75fps with 130% scaling on ultra on other maps, but second assault is terrible.

b) the battlescreen in browser broken? everything shows up as little black boxes flying around.

 

[Paganmoon]

Flying is so unbelievably useless. It's really quite amazing how much they've neutered the air game.

I don't know about the planes, but a good Little Bird pilot can really dominate a map. Annoying as hell. (I only ever play infantry)

 

[Ark]

I don't know what they did to helicopters but I just cannot fly them. In BC2 on PS3 I would decimate a team into being spawn trapped in no-time. But on BF4 (PS4) I just spin around in the air and inevitably crash into something, I just can't get the hang of them.

love me some Littlebird action, especially with a buddy on board firing off stingers and repairing it on the go.

Same works with the transport choppers, just have a guy(or two) on board that can fire stingers against enemy air vehicles and you're golden.

A fully loaded transport chopper with smart players can (sadly) be more deadly than an attack chopper.

 

[demolitio]

Wow, my friend and I can't even play Second Assault on PS4 right now. The worst lag we've had in quite a while.

I wish this game was fixed and that I got it on PC, but as it stands right now, this is my favorite game that I hate to play.

 

[Noisepurge]

oh definitely. the actual attack choppers seem very limited in what they can do and the weapons are just piss weak. My balancefix for them would be to add a shitload of armor in them.

a little bird with cannons + laser guided missiles is a more nimble version of the attack chopper in my opinion. Add the on board repair+stinger guy and its even deadlier.

a fully loaded transport chopper with buddies on partychat is indeed a killer with repair+stingers+2 gatling guns.

I think making the attack heli as nimble as it was in BF3 and a buff to it's main weapons would help.

 

[Bombless]

Tried that other one - the one with the hold-lock - and had a lot of fun.

There is no reason to use the Stinger when you have access to the Igla launcher. With a bit of practice you can reaquire locks even through flares (the missile returns on target if you are quick enough).

 

[Dr Prob]

The Battlelog update we've all been waiting for is live.

- Assignment criteria that needs to be obtained in-a-round now show the completion counter and is marked with "In a round"

Nice.

Dammit. Thing will be unusable by the time Dice have 'balanced' it.

"In a around". The spelling mistake

Good patch overall, it seems.

 

[Noisepurge]

[Paganmoon]

Added a new bug in the battlelog update it seems, already unlocked assignments that have a "in a round" requirement don't show those requirements as filled. Just noticed on Express Train assignment, got it unlocked, and it now shows the requirements as not fulfilled.

Yeah, that's the one. Igla. It's pretty beast. I didn't know that you could reacquire locks and surprised the hell out of myself when I did it accidentally last night. Good times. Plus that extra 100m range is nice.

- Assignment criteria that needs to be obtained in-a-round now show the completion counter and is marked with "In a round"

Glorious typo.

Mad respect for re working the vehicle handling.

Hopefully they get rid of tank spinouts.
