That's the "big" levolution event!? :/

I done that a few times, hardly map/game changing is it?

Terrible map that anyway, way too open and just so bland, they must have made that in like 5 minutes.....

Just lets you take out tanks that happen to be trundling by, there's a video linked above showing it.

Doubt there's much more that could have been done on that map, even taking down the railway wouldn't have changed things too much.

golmud railway - not sure what happens on that map :p Haven't seen anything for it yet :/

It's quite subtle really. Basically what happens is, over the course of the round the map gets more and more boring to the point of it becoming **** which eventually leads to you removing it from your map filter.
 
Mine finally works!

So, what would be the equivalent of the AEK from bf3? Still the AEK? I've given it a go on single player but it was all over the place!

edit: The game still has massive issues with overclocked gpus, same with BF3 but at least I could stabilize that by not installing MSI afterburner and using the the amd control panel instead :S

It's the same as I had it on BF3 - which I thought was default. I can't actually remember what does what :) without it being in my hand. I use both analogue sticks just for movement though.

Do you know what by default the left trigger does?

Hmm, I played BF3 quite a bit (not for quite a while though) and didn't even realise it was different! Thought it had always been like that haha, must just feel natural to me.

It still uses both analog sticks for movement, left analog up/down is speed control, left/right is turn (yaw) left and right. Right analog stick up/down is pitch up and down, left/right is roll.

Can't think what else movement wise could go on the left analog up/down, must have just duplicated pitch. Hmm, more thinking out loud here trying to figure out what it used to be lol.

But to answer your question, no sorry I'm not sure what left trigger does by default. Just like you, I can't remember without the pad in my hand! Damn muscle memory :D I want to say flares, but I'm probably wrong.

After playing MP for the last few days, I have to say that this is just Call of Duty with vehicles.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 is much more enjoyable.

Care to expand on "call of duty with vehicles" there?

Bigger maps and much more teamplay-oriented soldier setups for a start make it quite a distinction for me. I mean, I like the CoD feel when I want a quick blast as a lone wolf super soldier, but BF4 feels... nothing like it?
 
had a really frustrating night on it last night, just seems whomever holds the vehicles controls the game with very little way of getting back into the battle.

and spawn campers enrage me :mad:
 
For anyone else with 360 controller mapping (particularly left trigger) it seems there are a few with the issue, there's also a fix :D

Finally I can fly jets. Looks like freelook in the chopper is still borked though.

1. Make sure BF is not running.
2. Open PROFSAVE_profile file in a text editor. The file is in Documents\Battlefield 4\settings folder.
3. Locate the following entries in the file:
GstKeyBinding.heli.ConceptZoom.3.button
GstKeyBinding.jet.ConceptZoom.3.button
GstKeyBinding.vehicle.ConceptZoom.3.button
4. Change the numeric values after each of these entries to 255
5. Save the PROFSAVE_profile file.
6. Enjoy!

NOTE: if on starting the game first time after the change, Origin reports that your local saves do not match the saves from the cloud, choose to use your local saves (no those from the cloud).

NOTE 2: for my xbox controller I had to set all GstKeyBinding.heli.ConceptZoom from 3 to 16 to the value 255, to make it work for heli. Although, it completely disables free look for helis.

Thanks to all who figured this out!

If you finish the campaign, the P90 seems pretty good.

Thanks I'll give that a go. I'm just finding a weapon that feels natural to me at the moment. I keep getting killed really quickly by people running around corners are people with sniper rifles running around the map. Pretty frustrating as I seem to pump the bullets into people but nothing happens.

Regarding crashes I think the devs indicated that another patch is coming to primarily address the crashes people are experiencing, they said they would then concentrate on the the more unique crashes. So, they are at least looking at the issues.

With good burst control the default support LMG seems quite good, but NOT on the move at all (to the point where I was moving with my pistol out, the swapping to LMG once in cover). I may revise that opinion once I unlock a better one of course!

It doesn't work with IE 11 unfortunately, you will have to use another browser.
This is how Battlefield works since BF3. There is no in game server browser or launcher, you launch from Battlelog in your browser. There is an option to start the single player or search for multiplayer game from Battelog.

Sounds like they couldn't be bothered to implement an in-game interface like in BF2. Not acceptable for an AAA game.:rolleyes:
IE10 32-bit and 64-bit aren't working it seems.:mad:

I got the campaign going using "offline mode" and it was COD but with lot's of bright lights. :mad:

The movement of players, it's way too fast, Olympic sprinting with Ninja skills.

I'm pretty sure it would have been easier for them to just implement a cheeky server browser in game - but that isn't what they wanted to achieve - they basically wanted a battlefield-facebook that did everything from chatting with your friends, posting on it's forums to tracking your stats and joining servers. That is a pretty big undertaking for a couple of FPS games.
 
Might have to try joining some of the servers listed on here tonight. I'll be bottom of the score boards but nevermind eh :D

Quite a few people in this thread have been complaining of the opposite - 'feels like running in waist deep water' being a recurring trend.

Admittedly, I have not seen if one of the 'perk sets' gives improved movement speed for your squad or something else. I haven't noticed it feeling distinctly nippier than BFBC2, and I felt BFBC2 got it about right.

as i said before, operation locker = the best map, just stick to this map and have fun.

I will have to agree with this statement, I played Obliteration on this map last night and it was the most fun I had in a game in a long time.
