Are they letting people sign up again?

no eta but

From what I understood, there will be more and more slots opening, think of it as a soft launch to make sure all our systems are operating as expected

Ok so what mouse do you have? Do you know the dpi or if not we can work it out from the make.

In game settings are either in-game > options > sensitivity or you can edit them from PROFSAVE_profile which is in documents > BF4 > Settings > PROFSAVE_profile. Open with word pad and look for GstInput.MouseSensitivity. Your sens will show up something like 0.01500.

im using a razer naga 2014 at 1200dpi and the profsave_profile is saying GstInput.MouseRawInput 1
GstInput.MouseSensitivity 0.027000
GstInput.MouseSensitivityVehicle 0.270000.

I am now unbanned from Banana and most of my bans on both accounts seem to have run out, although I am still banned from a few of the BF3 servers that are left

The first round I played last night was lovely, M16A3 and 37% accuracy

That is really REALLY high sens Paul, try 0.006083 instead which is about medium sens. Also I suggest firing in bursts of 1-2 bullets only as spread / horizontal recoil and other issues will kill your aim otherwise.

If you'd like paul, I can idle in OcUK TS tonight and if you want me to run through anything with you, just poke me

So you don't want to be in the platoon but you want to piggy back our TS! Lol

JGStonedRaider · 9 May 2014 at 17:53

TonyTurbo78 · 9 May 2014 at 17:58

I quite fancy a little scrub bashing tonight, been so off the game for 2 weeks now. Had a pistolvonly dabble midweek during day but was so boring without the laughs. Hope to see you on latez

JGStonedRaider · 9 May 2014 at 17:59

CTE sign up is open atm

Josh · 9 May 2014 at 18:02

I'll be on tonight, just had a belly busting Harvester and cba to set up my G27.

Might do a bit of 4 and a bit of 3 tonight, just to be a complete rebel. Be on about 8 till L8!

Luvs ya really joenoobscrub or what you call yourself now!

86JR · 9 May 2014 at 18:16

I don't know weather to go out tonight or to try BF3 instead. Decisions!

so should i lower my mouse dpi in synapse then to about 600dpi.

JGStonedRaider · 9 May 2014 at 18:20

If you use 1200 dpi in windows and are comfortable for it, I'd just edit the profsave_profile.

If I were you, I'd copy your current profsave_profile and put the copied file on your desktop so if you really don't like the sens I suggested (it'll take time to get used to it btw) you can change back to your previous sens.

So go documents > BF4 > Settings > PROFSAVE_profile (copy and past file to desktop) then open it and edit the mouse.ses setting to 0.006083.

That is half way in between my sens and yours. That will be a 360 in 30cm's, you did a 360 in 10cm previously. I do 63cm for a full 360

That vid is a typical VERY low sens players hand movements in game, sa'll about lifting

Oh and this is how to fire in BF4, don't ever go full auto at over 5 mtrs

Mads1 · 9 May 2014 at 18:31

^ cant i just lower the dpi with the mouse software instead of changing the profsave file. dont i need to join the ocuk servers by invite.

Josh · 9 May 2014 at 18:38

There are no OcUK servers bud, we just jump in one that takes our fancy, ask the join the platoons listed in the OP and you will be able to see who is playing.

There is also a TS3 link for the Unofficial OcUK TS which Joe speaks of, a few of us use it most days for the banter.

I have a theory
Call it a wild one
But if
DICE can turn of Levolution and scripted events like waves in certain maps
It may result in better stability and
Hit detection

Mads1 · 9 May 2014 at 19:15

dont think id like to show myself up of rolling around and shooting in the air and making sand castles on the beach.

JGStonedRaider · 9 May 2014 at 19:42

Majnu I think praying may be about as much use. Not saying you are wrong but we need to cover all the bases atm, dis game :/

Paul, if you want we could join my private BF4 server and TS if you wanna talk / have a quick practice in game? Add me 10Hz-JSRaider although I will have to delete you after, I need the space for a team mate

CTE

PATCH DAY
Today we will patch both server and client on the CTE. This will mean some server downtime. You will also have to update your CTE client in Origin to join servers once they are up again.

PATCH CONTENTS
This patch includes:

Fix for explosion packs not being shootable sometimes
Fix for reducing damage mismatch between client/server
Fix for third person player orientation mismatch
Character collision improvements
Improvements for client side packet loss
Various server performance improvements
High Frequency/High Priority update (“Tickrate” improvements)
A new network update for high priority second to second gameplay (damage states, player position, projectiles, player stance etc). This update is per client specific and updates an area around each player. Initially we will test running this update at 30hz for everyone. This update runs on top of the current update run in the game today as a complement.
NOTE: This might cause problems for you (stalling, rubberbanding etc) if your internet connection can’t keep up – let us know in the forums

WHAT ARE WE TESTING?
With this patch, we are gathering data about server performance and comparing it against what we got from the first 24 hours of play. So that means we will keep running the same map (Hainan Resort Conquest 64) for a clean set of comparable data.

Secondly we’re testing any potential follow-up issues these changes might bring us – what is no longer working the way it used to before (if anything)?
Be creative, do things to try and make the system behave weirdly, an example would be to test sniping from far-far away and see what the player on the receiving end experiences (as the new high frequency update has a range limit).

Just added the CTE into NV Inspector as I noticed SLI wasn't working. Will test out properly tonight.
