Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

yeh it's stupid. especially for ppl like me that dont play multiple rounds in a row. i usually get thrown into servers that are almost finished, ofc im on the losing side. It was worse at the beginning of bf3 with all the spawn camping, is why my stats in bf3 got screwed, played an entire year pretty casually with 1-2 rounds max in a row.
crash at the building collapse?

I'm gonna give this game a miss until the constant serving dropping, CTD and other problems are fixed. I'm loving the actual game but out of 10 games I've played today only 2 I was actually able to finish. Not happy.

BF4 in normal mode already has the lowest time to kill and skill level needed to kill people in the modern FPS genre. However that isn't so much the issue, the issue is no minimap, not hitmarkers (not so bad, old school fps never had them) but worst of all unless you ADS you cannot tell who is a team mate and therefore I got Tk'd for 90% if my death when I tried it yesterday. If friendlies deploy claymores, the claymores will be set off by team mates and kill them, how is that not broken?

If you want 'Realism' in Hardcore mode, then I guess that would be right.
Claymores in real like can't differentiate between being tripped off by a friend or enemy

ffs had more problems today and just noticed they've put "server queueing" on after all there going on about issues, fix the sodding game before you put stuff on that has issues you numpties.
even more quality, now getting the following message when trying to join servers :
"cannot join this server its not there anymore"
it was a second ago when i refreshed arghhhhhhhh

havent had any issues in the few games ive played so far today, just played a great squad DM on Dawnbreaker. Why people continue to spawn on squad members when they can see that they are getting raped at that location is beyond me 
Unlocked the MASS three times now - CTD win!!
It was fine yesterday, couple of hours gaming without a hitch. Today its awful
Do you get promoted 5 or 6 times too? Maybe it's meant to give us a morale boost...
Yesterday was really bad for me but the short amount of time I've played today has been awful.
just refreshed the server list 3 times and EVERY time the same server is listed even though they tell me its not there, my sodding eyesight isnt that bad grrrrrrrrr
i'm starting to wonder if they even bother testing patches the way this is going, why touch server queuing when they know it has problems get the sodding servers running properly first.
R5 server patch is being rolled out.... which only fixes the server queue bug.
Crash fixes are due in R6

As annoying as it is, I'd rather them hold off a day or two to ensure that the crash fixes actually work. Nothing worse than patching a dodgy patch.
Lots of glitches and I have only been playing it for about 2 hours. South China Sea is a pita. First time, got on the boat and tried to get to the Valkyrie, couldn't catch it as it was going at the speed of sound around the map, second time I fell through the boat so I couldn't complete the first part to get to the boat! Argh!
Of the maps I have played so far the quality has been high but sadly not really matching that of BF3.
I played this beach type level which was quite shockingly poor, but its the only poor map I've played.
Best map is Shanghai by a country mile.
