64-0, 53-0, 42-0 in the past few days but naaaah, boats aren't OP

Can anyone tell the difference between 100% and 200% texture resolution or am I blind? All it does for me is slow it down to about 35 fps and I can't see any improved eye candy. Is this a thing designed for 4K monitors or something? I'm gunning at 1080P.

What level are you now?
How many hours of battfield does one need to play to get 53-0 scores, because I'm sure as hell a long way off

If you mean resolution scale, i tried going from 100 to 140 with my 670 4gb and ive got to say it looked and played pretty much the same.

Hours are not needed, my young Padawan. Just an ability to camp in a boat with two friends on the miniguns and another selfless individual repairing...
Ain't that right, Joseph?

You can achieve a better looking anti-aliasing effect than deferred (so typically you run either-or) you should also see a slightly better representation of textures at distance. I'd recommend not running AA-Post with those to as it blurs everything so the small differences will be lost in the lower IQ that brings.
I have had so many repair ribbons from doing that
and then some mug swims all the way out to place C4 on the boat and kabooooom. Respawn back in another boat

LVL 64 atm and really once you have TV's and Active Protection in the boat (can be done in 2 rounds of paracel) you are god.

Nope, no reppers / gunners, they kept bailing on me / didn't know how to rep. Whenever I got low (which was a lot being HVT the entire blooming time) I took cover, prayed that no one would steal my boat, jumped out my boat and repped from the water

Oh and for close range combat in boats, spam 30mm cannon > fire TV directly at target > exit TV by pressing E (if it's on target it'll still hit) > Fire another missile > rinse repeat = profit.

Why can't any of the soldiers hold their breath underwater? It's unrealistic.
I barely went under for a minute before "KIA". They should be able to last at least 5 minutes underwater, especially the marines/assault class.

one guy i play with you can hear his mice and keyboard going round the room when stuff like that happens
Like me.

Why don't we have to eat and takes poops either? this games lack of realism spoils my immersion
Anyone?
I've been randomly getting KIA a lot today especially parachuting I'll be about 6 foot off the ground and suddenly KIA for no apparent reason (guess the game thinks I cratered) also small drops and/or near vehicles completely randomly (without them actually hitting me).

Multiplayer seems allot more stable for me now. On the other hand campaign crashes every time I try to continue the mission.
Other way around for me now, Campaign is flawless yet I cannot play two rounds of MP in succession
With each server update it worsens the stability for me.

UPDATE #9:
PC Game Update Goes Live Nov 14
We are happy to report that the PC Battlefield 4 game update will go live tomorrow, November 14. The main focus of this update is threefold:
1) Reduce the number of crashes
We believe this update will solve a large portion of the most commonly occuring game crashes, and the improvement in overall stability should make a big difference for many players.
2) Eliminate a network sync bug
If you’ve been experiencing situations in multiplayer where it appears that you are taking damage from enemies through walls, you might have been the victim of a network sync bug. In this game update, we have identified and eliminated one such bug that caused this type of gameplay experience. We are continuing to work on more multiplayer optimizations concerning network performance.
3) Improve Network Smoothing
We have made some improvements to the ”Network Smoothing” functionality that you can find in the OPTIONS>GAMEPLAY menu. The Network Smoothing slider governs a group of settings that aim to produce a tighter multiplayer experience based on your specific packet loss situation.
If you’ve been experimenting with the Network Smoothing slider earlier, it might now yield better results. If you haven’t tried it before, please explore this setting and set it to the lowest value you can without experiencing graphical glitches in the game. By setting it lower, you can get a tighter multiplayer experience, depending on your specific network situation.
More details upcoming
Besides the above mentioned focus areas, this PC game update contains a number of other fixes and tweaks that we will detail once it’s live.
This game update for PC goes live around 10AM UTC/2AM PST November 14. Your Origin Client should acknowledge and automatically download this update for you, as usual. Otherwise, you can right click your game in the client and select ”Check for Update”. There will be a Battlelog maintenance downtime for about an hour as this update goes live. During this time multiplayer on PC will be unavailable.
We will release full patch notes for this game update later, but the three items mentioned above are by far the most important changes in this update. We understand that stability has been rocky for some players, and hope that this update will make the game run smoother and more stable for you. Let us know in the comments below.
