Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

Everytime I join a server it's playing (or just about to) bloody Zavod 311. I'm already sick of getting absolutely murdered by tanks and other vehicles round after round.

They really need to sort out the audio just stopping entirely for periods of time, how did something that obvious get past testing, testing? I seem to be uttering the ramblings of a rattling crack head. :mad:

Just spent a bit of time in the test range trying everything out.

Is anybody else having problems getting joysticks to work. I can bind it to the key and it works fine in a jet but when I play an infantry it mucks everything up key binding wise.

Erm just loaded this for the first time, and Im getting rainbow type flickering textures. Running a 680gtx with the latest nvidia drivers.

EDIT: it would seem I'm not running the latest. 331.58

I'm getting stuttery and laggy fps with V Sync enabled, but smooth as silk with it off but tearing.

Is anyone else having this problem?

Why on earth do you run sli 780's @ 1080 with settings on low lol.

Because I get big FPS's and the game looks no different. Only things I ave on are 4xaa and I think Mesh on ultra. To me it still looks great and I get the benefit of it running great too.

Get on TS

Boris and I found a good server, which doesn't seem to crash very often :cool:

think i will wait for better drivers and patches for this game before i get into it

Slipperz · 1 Nov 2013 at 15:15

Purchased through cdkeys did 7 gig of download now when logged back into origin the game has disappeared!!!
Tried the key again and it says its in use

Contacted EA and they said to contact cdkeys ............great!

Is this game seen as a improvement over battlefield 3?

I hardly played battlefield 3, its hard to put my finger on what I didn't like about it though.

I enjoyed battlefield 2 immensely and thought bad company 2 was really good (but I didn't put loads of time into it).

Any ideas if I will enjoy this game? Sorry I haven't given people much to go on.

Reminds me of the ol Q3 engine where you ran everything on lowt to get 333FPS, to glide

What screen(s) you running?

Played to rank 20 now over the past couple days and it's pretty fun, but I wish they would fix the bloody netcode, it feels like i'm playing on hardcore and dying in one shot.

To be fair it's running great though, 1080p with 2x AA and Ultra mesh quality and I haven't dropped below 100 fps yet.

If true (not disputing it) then it shows that benchmarks website are not reliable.

Im running a 3570k and a 670.... hopefully it runs well..

I'm on Windows 8 which apparently runs better, so maybe mine is running better than some, but it does seem to run very well.

people do varying fps comments theres the quick glance and its 80 fps there is the benchmark bias fps

then theres timed runs on same maps and min max and avg fps

780 gtx ultra gets about 55 minimums.

2x780's and run the game on low in an effort I would assume to try to negate input lag.

SLI by definition adds a frame or two of lag over a single GPU you know. I'm getting 70-100fps on a 7990 running Ultra, how many FPS do you think you need?

Cannot join any map even loading screen, re-installed drivers, direct x and punk buster manual updated. Went to repair bf4 on origin, which is now downloading 3gb. Here's hoping this does the job!

Tackle_Berry · 1 Nov 2013 at 15:48

Really struggling to do well in this, BF2 and BF3 I always done fairly well with a overall KD of well over 2.0. In this I am lucky to get over 1.2.

Anyone else come from BF3 finding it hard to get kills?
