They're just exceptionally pleased to see you :p
 
Every time I play MP the graphics are going all wacky and blocky. Anyone else have this problem?
 
****ING SERVER CRASH!

Was having an excellent round, something like 40+ kills with 3-5 deaths and got to rank 40 plus weapon unlocks!

Actually feel like pulling a "francis" rage fit of right now (search youtube for francis/boogie2988)
 
Why are the vehicles so quiet in this game? You should be able to hear a tank coming from more than 20 foot away. I don't know they're there until they're on top of me. :p
 
I noticed if you don't get to the battle log screen at the end, none of the progress is saved. I always make a point of loading the in game battle log and watching the stats count up. As i don't know how many times its crashed at map change and i didn't get any unlocks when i thought i would have. Its true that i do get unlocks during the game, but there does seem to be something that happens at the end of the map that results in more unlocks being activated than during the game.

The sounds are messed up on some maps. There is sound issues. at times i can't hear my own vehicle and surrounding vehicles and player sounds are not audible, resulting in me not hearing other players.

This is what i would consider a major issue, an issue that in any other industry would lead to the product release being delayed.

But not the EA game industry, for some reason they see no problem releasing a game that crashes and has major sound problems. :confused:

Seems like COD Ghosts isn't in much better shape - limited FOV, massive memory leaks, etc. :( feel like going and bashing my head against a wall then going back to play Quake 1-3.

Sound was working fine for me up until today and along with the crashing thats suddenly come out of nowhere I'm now also getting all the sound problems, can tell when its going to happen as it sounds distorted on the loading screen.
 
And about 4 crashes in 15 minutes, nice.........

fix this buggy pos!

For some reason it seems to happen all the time around this time, game runs best for me late at night

Hmm thats an interesting observation - I was playing 2-3am before this is the first time I've played before midnight even and the first time I've been getting constant crashes :S

Yup it is definitely related to the time you play, guessing this would be the most busy time since people get back from work, school etc. so will all be jumping on.

Was playing from about 11 or so till 4am (:o) and had no problems and also seems fine around lunch time.
 
Well, this is the most bug-ridden POS I have ever had the misfortune to purchase :mad: I still cannot get into a game! It just pops up saying I need to install a browser plugin which I then do but it just keeps going round and round in circles telling me to install the damn plugin. Utter gash :mad:
 
Can't tell you how ****ing mad I am about that server crash earlier!

- hit rank 40
- got loads of battlepacks
- got unlocks for my wonderful ak5c
- had a great score overall
- was a damn good game all round despite it being a pretty poor map (lacang damn)

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR :mad: :mad: :mad:

edit;

oh wait, still rank 40 (after getting it for the 2nd or 3rd time), the last match was just a crash on my end.

I've stopped all the sound cutting out and most of the client crashes now, still happens from time to time but nowhere near as much.

Sound: Within the C:\Documents\Battlefield 3\Settings\PROF_SAVE_profile .txt document that everyone should have, there is an option at the very top called GstAudio.AudioQuality. This is, as I have found, an independent variable outside of the normal HI-FI, War Tapes, Headphones, etc options that are available to us. It was defaulted to 0, and I changed this to 4. Instantly, all my sound glitches are COMPLETELY gone, and I am enjoying this game immensely now.

Crashes (for me): Right click BF4 in Origin and go to Game Properties and on the "When launching game" drop down menu choose x64. That has stopped a lot of crashing as it seems that it may at times not use the x64 client.
