Rush requires teamwork and communication. GAF isn't much better than randoms at these.

It's hard to beat a really good game of Rush but those are few and far between and when its bad, my God its bad. Havent tried Rush on BF4 for that reason, might give it a go later this week if I can get some of my friends on at the same time. My best BC2 memories are all from times we were defending in Rush.

Rush is absolutely disgusting in this game. The defender spawn points, location of mcoms, distance between them along with the low ticket count and higher player numbers just makes it a miserable game session.

I hope they eventually get around to tweaking it but am no holding onto hope. Until then it's just CQ for me and I loved Rush in BC/2/BF3.

Glad it's not just me. Often when I play Rush in BF4 I have a terrible ass time. Just a noticeably worse experience for me personally compared to games of Conquest. I avoid Rush all together if possible. The only time I play it now is if I have friends in a server already.

Same here, I loved the shit out of BC2 Rush, and BF3 Rush was good on a few of the maps.

I also fucking loved Rush in BC2, but the mode has been getting progressively worse.

Just got an Xbone on Sunday, and a copy of BF4. I know most of you guys are on ps4, but if there's anyone here with an Xbox One who wants to add me, my gamertag is Greendomo. Thanks!

So I've had this going for me for three weeks...

Tried forwarding ports and the like. Think Amazon would be up for a refund?

Try using the Server Browser rather than using Quick Match.

It has a tendency of putting you in servers with not so ideal connections to oneself, leading to unecessary disconnections from the servers.

Server browser always comes up blank. Definitely reliable.

I had to put my PS4 directly into the router and in DMZ to fix this problem.

I had to do the same for Warframe, so I gave it a shot here. No dice.

How do I make my youtube ripped from facebook video's not look like absolute shit?

Chopper run on Hainan, 16-1:

Can't do anything really. The bitrate is simply too low.
Sure you can, the reason it looks like shit there is because he ripped the SD version. You want to click this URL and then right-click the video and pick save as..

Been looking to change up from CQ 24/7, but OblitGAF always signs on later than CQGAF.

Also, should we try to get a big group on this weekend to try some Rush?

Anyone encountered this glitch where the HUD disappears (on normal servers)? It's happened to me a few times and I have no idea why, only way to fix it seems to be heading to team setup in the menu.

It's extremely frustrating, even in the .GIF you can see me unload a clip into a friendly due to no mini-map or icons.

It turns out there's a wall-glitch on Hainan resort at D flag where anyone can just walk through a small part of the wall in the ship and be hidden. You can shoot at enemies, but they can't shoot or see you; but you can run into that piece of wall and kill who ever is in there.
 
Obliteration gaf wouldn't have been Obliteration gaf if Rush was properly made in BF4. Terrible designs all around. M-COMs too close to one another, not much pathways for sneaking around due to map designs, inclusion of Commander, bases are just comically small, and low ticket count. BF4 Rush also lacked something that made Rush special. The destruction and multitudes of hiding places added a lot to the mode. Without those Rush feels soul-less.

Even if custom servers come out and people increased the ticket count, the main issues are still there.

I put like 500+ hours into Rush in BC2. Rush in BF4 is heavily slanted towards defenders.

Rush in BF4 feels tacked on. The maps are clearly designed for Conquest and have none of the necessary modifications for a rush map. On the flipside, BC2 maps were entirely designed around Rush which is why they were so much fun. I would play Rush on BF4 if there was a 64-player mode with perhaps more M-Coms and a much higher ticket count.

On that note; why the fuck does Air Superiority have a ticket count & objectives? The only reason people play that mode is to try and kill other jets/heli's. The games are over in less than 5 minutes.

I wonder if that's a recent glitch. That corner is where I always went to cap the flag, and it was only a week or so ago that I discovered it by being killed by a guy camping in there. But now, every time I go to D someone runs into it. I like to put a claymore down. I hate map glitches like that.

It's been there for awhile.
 
Joined OblitGAF last night – is it always that full? If so, I don't know how you guys do it; I can't stand GAF on GAF crimes. Downside of the 16 v 16 compared to CQ, I guess.
 
What about BF3?
PS3 was broken around that time, didn't have a computer for it as well.

I agree that bc2 was designed for rush. It was balanced good because of the map design. I don't think sticking more mcoms would change a thing. I believe Rush is about working as a team to move on to the next area. More mcoms would further divide the team and it'll be less focused.

Bf4 doesn't have a lot of hiding spots due to the lack of houses as well. It'll be a slaughter.

32 people on a team and I'm the only one placing a beacon in the back of their flags? Come the fuck on guys, Op. Locker is the exact same map as Metro, you absolutely need to keep beacons alive against a good team to win.

BF3 was my first BF so I don't have anything else to compare BF4 to.

Our team was terrible anyway. B got capped and we still had guys trying to push through the door at C.

I'd take some flak for the Golmud loss (was in a jet half the game getting my third Jet Ribbon) but they had a commander. Who of course, left us to join the other team when Op Locker came up.

They really need to reconsider how Commander mode works. You can't have solo commanders because its too big an advantage. I still say they should have a CommanderBot and make Commander-less servers. God knows you don't need a human to put up the Gunship.
