Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

Yup heard about jets in BF 2 being an massive problem and way too overpowered especially with the dropping bombs, glad I never played it! :D :p


Personally if I had it my way for bf 4:

- remove prone; imo it does nothing but hinder the gameplay, although I got use to it eventually but still like to see it gone again, imo it was one of the reasons why the "gameplay" is better in bc 2

- remove the gunship and jets and stick with just apaches, transport/blackhawks and the little bird for aircraft, too many vehicles just makes the game harder to balance and as a result I feel brings the gameplay down "overall", I honestly think BF 3 would have been 100 times more fun without jets and the gunship

- go back to how the unlock system worked in bc 2 with regards to not having to unlock everything for each gun separately, just feels like a chore and makes me want to stick with only the 1 to 2 weapons and reduce the amount of unlocks, imo it is stupid the amount of choice and what makes it even more pointless it that only a few of the unlocks will stand out and be used by the majority just like in BF 3 i.e. heavy barrel + foregrip + either red dot scope or kobra sight

- stick with the current squad perk system in BF 3 but bring more options of squad perks like in bf 4

- go back to how the damage system and vehicle balance was in BC 2, none of this vehicle regen. nonsense etc. and bring back limited ammo (although there looks like there is some form of a timed limited ammo, at least for tanks and their main cannon)

- keep all similar types of gun stats roughly the same so the majority don't use the same weapon the entire time i.e. in BF 3 it is either M16 or M416 :rolleyes:

Everything else looks great as it is so far......

you want bc3 then.
 
BF2 was epic, who cares about the insta death of bombs from planes. Hearing a plane coming from the distance, you carry on as normal, you notice that the plane flys directly above you and swooshes up, and you see a carpet of bombs ahhhhh shiii*****, then you fly up up and away wiiiiii, oh I loved that game :D
 
Jets were powerful in the right hands in bf2 but there were tons of sam sites that anybody could use and the jets had limited ammo. They also had to land to get fixed or fly really slowing and at very low level over the runnway, non of this auto repair nonsense. The fact that jets auto heal has made them the mess that they are in bf3.

Limited but you were given more if flown over a runway also repaired, which is much much better than what it is now, evade fly away automatic repair overtime, and like your saying unlimited ammo.

Point being that there was a brake from the action while you went to rearm or repair. Bf3 got the rock,paper and sissors wrong.

Only BF2 had pretty bad view distance on half the maps and those sam sites need to see the jets to lock - any half decent jet pilot knew where they are and would line up the shot to kill them out of vision.

So, silly question probably, but if you have access to the BF3 beta, do your MP points get retained when you install the full version?

Er, no. Start from scratch, level playing field for all, unless you dont have a job and will sit and play for 10 hours straight!
