Come play :(

Just had my first ever ragequit, I'm usually very calm but I could not take it that game.

Wasn't even doing bad personally, just the sheer incompetence of teammates.

You never rage quit?! Give me some of whatever you are on!

Just 'tactically retreated' from a game of Hardline due to all the idiot snipers on the opposition team.

I kinda like hardline in some ways and hate it in others.

Regardless of what the youtubers say, while the maps may 'look' big, the actual play area is far too small.
The customization and attachments menus are clunky and crap. Visceral just need to copy BF4's customization and attachments menus as they are good and work really well (much better than BF3 before it).

The gun play feels, odd/ just feels like spmethings off, it's like they've taken BF4 and sped it up/made it more arcadey.

Anyhow, wish they'd hurry up with the BF4 expansion as riot shield and C4 in hardline is good fun.
 
Yeah its kind of funny how they've actually fixed or properly implemented some things that are clunky and rubbish in BF4 but other things like the customisation (albeit it might still be early beta work) is really clunky and poor.

Have to say I can't really see myself playing it though haven't really given it much of my time yet, the quick couple of games I played seemed a bit lacking in focus.

Good thread on mantle here:

http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18602206&highlight=mantle

Essentially an alternative API to DX API for AMD GPU users, to sum it up, you get better minimum and average FPS, it will be more of a benefit to users with weak CPUs and powerful GPUs i.e. pretty much my setup, someone with a top end i7/i5 probably won't notice much of a difference between mantle and DX API.

Only used in a few games atm, BF 4, hardline and thief, it comes down to both the game engine and game developer so frostbite supports it and assuming the game developers who use the engine support it as well, these games could/should have mantle:



Supposedly cryengine and Rebellion Asura engine will be incorporating mantle.

Sniper Elite 3 will be having mantle.
 
Just found this nice little tool. BF4 - Frame Time Analyzer

Here are my results after an hour of playing Zavod. I play with BF4 locked to 120FPS using SweetFX with all settings on low except mesh which is on Ultra.

Kiwi only plays zavod high tickets! :p

Honestly, how on earth can people get so much enjoyment from just one map? :eek:
Click to expand...

To me the fun is in the gameflow and challenge of taking on big odds, aslong as its a semi-decent map its easy to spend hours - I don't even want to think how many hours I spent just playing the edge (Quake 2).
 
Suppose, personally I couldn't play just 1 map all the time especially lockers/metro!


Tried mantle with bf 4 tonight and wow, it is definitely better than the DX API, game just feels smoother and less FPS drops now. TBH, not missing sweetfx.

Had fun with the as val and magnum tonight, as val for close/medium range and magnum for long range.

That's me! Each to their own really. I get consistent close games on that map and don't enjoy the spam that is Lockers/Metro. Really can't wait for dragons teeth, hopefully there will be a couple of smaller maps similar to Zavod.
 
**** it I am going to put everything on low for a couple of rounds, see what all this hype is about.

Sweetfx FTW y0. No more bland vanilla colours.
 
Josh get on BL if you can!

I am using these settings on bf 4 now, hardline pic but same as bf 4 :p

And yeah, I do miss the colours but mantle makes the game smoother with less FPS drops for me.
 
low settings make baby jeebus cry :p

ULTRA OR UNINSTALL! :p


every now and then I press scroll lock to flick between sweetfx and normal.... urgh..... such a blur :p helps in commander mode too as you actually get a bit of definition and can spot player models a bit easier ;)

had a beast game as commander over the weekend too!!! ended up getting a total of 14 (15 but one was a tk :p ) kills with the cruise missile :D BOOOOYAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! one missile gave me a quadrakill :3 very happy moment for me! it should have been more though, on siege there were two tanks and some inf on D flag and my missile was inc..... was soooo close but some inf fired at one of the tanks so he ran off avoiding the blast :(

also scum bag inf on my team!!!! :mad: (but not that mad) the guy who I got a TK on with the cruise missile punished me.... "DrSasso was killed for team killing" lol yeah.....GG.....kill the immortal commander.... good luck with that :p but what really frustrates me is he got killed due to his own ignorance! I said in chat "Cruise missile inc on D" and also put down the EVAC order which gives that annoying screen with the range indicator.... a good signal to GTFO as **** is about to go down..... but nope.... I watched him ignore it and pretty much run right to the middle.

also hate how most teams just completely ignore the commander. asking people where they want a missile or ammo box... no one sends asset requests....and, commander orders... lol.... may as well not be in there. I am pretty much forever using everything I have available as it becomes useable. some times they generally go to the ones I say (if team is spread out I'll generally tell them to go for their closest flag) but when we're losing lots of flags.... if they went where I said we'd probably hold flags better. on siege we had about 6 squads all on A flag.... still losing it, 2-3 squads on B and they were losing it. Badboys squad on D.... capped and starting to cap E.....team of asshats!!!! (BB not included..... but totally included :p )


there is also nothing as hilarious as BB asking for ammo.... and then dropping the crate right on his head :D he has learned though and is a bit more cautions :p
