Windows Battlefield 4 Discussion Thread

TBH Gyro stabiliser and the way disables now work make it irrelevant, it's possible to just tank any AA missiles and be out of range by the time they've reloaded whilst still having counter measures in hand.

The stealth jets are hilariously useless now, with the 30mm gun it becomes possible to kill other aircraft/choppers, but they have no useful air to ground function and all the AAMs are useless because they can be tanked like stingers without much penalty.

I suspect a patch will at some point take the stealth jets closer to the F/A-18/SU-35 capabilities from BF3. The SU-50 and F-35 need their maneuverability patching to match the J-20, whilst all three could do with a top speed buff to make them at all relevant against attack jets.

 

I was thinking about this too, then realised that the Igla relied upon IR tracking. If the Javellin is thrown off by flares, that really is silly since it's being laser guided. Should work like in BF3 imo.

 

Ah I always thought it was radar guided but it is indeed infra red.

 

Yea, it's a weird system. You have to hold lock for it to see the heat.... as I keep telling my swedish friends, those swedes are crazy!

 

Gah! What have dice done?! I'm finally encountering all the issues everyone else has got!

Can't get into a game for more than 2 seconds since I updated the latest Firefox patch...

 

Awesome cant log into battlelog with ie anymore.

And in firefox the server list is very Spartan and slow to update.

Typical EA I guess!

 

I've not had many issues yet!

Bought the DVD copy of BF4 but elected to leave it downloading through Origin overnight. Not sure if that makes a difference but asides some quirks with sound when in a tank the games worked flawlessly so far. Mighty impressed that my GTX 670 SLI rig maintains good frames with the prettiness turned up as well.

 

Just got shot when I was halfway down a flight of stairs and the shooter was up in the hall above, netcode or whatever is to blame suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks on this.

 

Have you checked you Network Smoothing setting?

I get the occasional DICE net code fart, but not nearly to the extent it seems to affect a lot of other people. I don't understand why DICE even include network smoothing as an option, it should be disabled and locked at disabled for everyone all the time.

 

The Rex IS SO BAD. I thought you were exaggerating and then I tried it. I'll be avoiding all revolvers if they're all like that. Shame really.

 

I think they've gone a bit OTT with silenced LMGs.... I mean when do you ever see that Lol?

 

I want a silencer on my rpg......

 

+1

 

I stand corrected but still it looks a bit daft lol..

 

managed to get the game working, had to reinstall the game and the firefox plugin. still crashing in game occassionally :/

 

I use Chrome and not had a single crash with 5 hours game time.

 

I managed to play without a single crash during the week. New patch incoming next week. Hopefully fix some things.

Can't wait till they need some op things. AA being one of them, has too long a range on such small maps. David being one of them.

The Mothership

 

Has anyone else had problems mapping mouse buttons?

 

I'm fine except for Seige of ShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShangShang
