Started to play multiplayer for the first few hours yesterday, haven't had any problem so far.
Weird because so many people complain about it, but it looks like there are exceptions.

Tons of problems here - glitching, lag, crashes both in game and blue screen, one hit deaths, getting shot through solid walls, etc. What a disaster, most likely my final BF purchase. The in-game ads for premium are hilarious, like a used car dealer selling you a car without an engine and calling up a week later to see if you want the optional rust-proofing.
Add me - gunsolo - if I haven't sold the PS4 yet in a fit of rage and disappointment.

I played this the other day and put in some campaign time and two conquest matches with no crashes.
And then randomly, while I was at the game's main menu I got a CE crash back to the OS.
I don't know what the hell is going on with this game, but its not right.

It is getting better, but not perfect yet.

So...
Is this game fully fixed yet?
Did the same lol. When game works no other fps can touch it. Ran 3 hours had 3 crashes. Crashing only while playing CQ. Other gametypes are working well for the moment.

4 good Conquest matches, 2 that errored out. Also...
When you see it, something something something. I'm pretty sure DICE is just trolling me at this point.

I didn't think Battlefield 4 would have this many issues. I purchased it on PS4, but have yet to unwrap the plastic. I'm waiting on my cousin to get his PS4 before I start playing it. By that time, I'm hoping most of the issue will be fixed.

having some fun with the game but two problems
1.) RUSH mode has so little ticket count, looking forward to new servers
2.) Aim assist. I have always turned off aim assist and I feel it should not exist in battlefield. thanks call of duty

oh dear......
the game is decent in my opinion but it just has so many glitches it almost makes it a burden to put in the disc slot. Still, when it does work, it works well. Really enjoying conquest.

Agree. Conquest is so much win. I finally got around to playing it after playing pretty much TDM 100% of the time. It's so cool...but I don't know how you're supposed to learn the in's and out's of each of the vehicles?
It's hard to even get time in any of them (biggest issue), and the airborne vehicles seem to have at least some learning curve. Flying and aiming heilos seems to be...not all that straight forward. I'm not sure how a person can get "good" at some of the vehicles without being able to practice some other way. I guess I'll watch some youtube videos or something.

There´s a Test Range map in the game where you can try out all the vehicles.
It was a "panic patch" to correct the OHK-bug. They also enabled the sound for sharing videos.
The stability patch is due for another date.

Anyone else get really bad ground textures on Silk Road? It's really horrible and really blocky. It's really really bad and looks like a PS1 or PS2 game. I'll try to upload pic later. This is the only new map I've played so far.

Tip: Use the filter, tick off the "full, 10-15," and etc. player counts and it should show the servers with people in them. Don't check the other boxes, just those. Worked for me.
Not sure if joking or not. BF is a slower game compared to CoD, but yeah, it is "harder." But payoff is so worth it.
Use "Test Range" to try all the vehicles without any penalties to your stats.
I've been playing a few hours and everything seems OK. Mind you, I still get the CE thing maybe once every 5-6 games and I experience massive rubber-banding at random points and other technical issues, but overall, it is playable. Just annoying that these technical problems exist in the first place.
When it works, though? So good. And to think, I play with randoms all the time, too.
Sometimes, during 1vs1, I have the impression that the game 'interrupts' my burst.
I thought that my Logitech G500 could have some problems, but it works fine in other games and so in BF4, when I try to shoot against walls.
At this point, I'm thinking about some new kind of suppression, netcode issues or [OMG] a design choice to intentionally compensate somehow messy hitregs/netcode/weapons stats.
Am I the only one?

Nope, i get this alot, it feels like the gun jams, then at that point the enemy get another 5 hits off, i die and they have 1-10 health left. So i would of won the fire fight if no 'jam'
Its like the netcode stops u to compensate for the other player connection or something.
I played for a couple hours of conquest china rising maps last night and all the maps looked like dogshit to me, graphically. Then I hopped into an air superiority for a few minutes and the IQ went way up. Idk, I was very underwhelmed but based on some ps4 footage I was looking at, it may have just been an anomaly.
Use the Test Range, its a map where its just you and all the vehicles.

Why aren't China Rising maps showing up in TDM quick matches?

I've encountered yet another bug. I can't level past 100 when I have enough XP to be level 102 (as I can clearly see on the Battlepacks section of Battlelog). I'm Premium and have played China Rising, so not having the DLC isn't the issue..

It's not that map specifically. I went on to dragons pass when I first got the map pack and the textures where almost turning on and off as I walked on big square patches. Silk road was fine. Then the next day it happened on another map and dragons pass was ok.
I fired up the game early this morning to play a bit more SP before work (up to the third mission and the save is still there), and there was a message about new servers coming on I think. Anyone else see it?
Played some Conquest last night and no issues like usual. I unlocked the RPG so I'm pretty stoked about playing this weekend.

People having problems with conquest mode should try obliteration or rush for a while. Those mode are pretty fun but tend to have less problems.
My psn is spatenfloot if anyone is still looking for more players.

Did it give it to you on the next match?
I have a lot of matches where it says I leveled up, but doesn't actually level me up until the next match. So I end up leveling up to 34 in the first match and then ACTUALLY leveling up in the 2nd match and then getting the battlepack. Kind of weird.

I'm glad they're stopping everything to fix all the issues, but I'd rather not see Second Assault thrown into limbo. Timed exclusives are bogus, please don't make it worse.
E-X-A-C-T-L-Y.
I've spent just 12:30 hours in the game, but the amount of times it's happening to me could be considered a real issue.
And I have a good connection, with 20-50 ping in almost all Europe. :/

This is ridiculous, every big map is rubberbanding. Its those short moments where you walk but get pulled back. And the hit detection is fucked up, with still those behind the wall frags.
And the crashes, had one today after a good match with decent scores. It does seem that the smaller modes such as Domination and TDM have better performance.

Thank you to all who mentioned this! I never noticed.
Nope. It skipped it entirely and moved onto the Battlepacks. Apparently that attachment is glitched and simply will never unlock. It's fine since there will probably be a suppressor in the next Battlepack. I was worried it was related to the crashes or that it wouldn't move onto the battlepacks.
This place is like a support group but even more depressing at the same time.

I was able to play 64 player Conquest without crashing, but the sound was constantly cutting out. Any word from Dice on that issue?

I refuse to put more time into this game until this is resolved. I'm eternally stuck on 100 though I'm Premium and have downloaded and played China Rising.
