Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

Good few games on CQ 247 48 man. Was with DST guys and had some nice squad play. I suck at the SRAW. Can hit stationary targets, but how the hell ppl hit moving choppers I do not know!

Good game with Neil also! He can certainly hold his own!! If any OCUK guys wanna add me, my BL is below
 
Urg, struggling getting any more than 60 fps, even tho i'm running it at 1920x1080 @ low reso and im still not getting any more than 58-60 fps, odd as this has only started occuring since I setup the cfg file, have deleted it and it wont go above those fps. Prior to this i was getting 80-100 depending in high @ 2560x1440..Any ideas?

sys:

i7 950
titan
go ingame, open console type game and it'll appear like game.timemaxvariable or whatever it's called, and set it to 120, if that doesn't work i'd try completely wiping origin and bf4 from drive and even deleting pre-set folder that are left after you re-install.

yeah i've watched videos and cannot for the life of me figure out how its done :(, at the end you see them just pointing at empty space then it's "...killed 100" :eek:

just read this :

checked my config file and can confirm the command is :

gametime.maxvariablefps

set it to 80 or 120 etc in game as Boot said and it should override to up the fps, hope it helps.


game wise had a disconnect, bit of blurring and jumpyness, hit reg hasn't been badly noticable, and overall not as bad as it has been at its worst.

Exactly... I wonder if we only see the 1% of shots that hit ;) ;)

fair chance as with most vid highlights, but i'd settle for hitting 1% the way they do it :D, it's the same for me with tv missles though can't hit sod all, i know my aim is rubbish, but it doesn't help i can't settle on a decent mouse sensitivity on vehicles so i can get a decent turn going on the turrets :confused:

mind you, checking your stats you ain't to shabby and at least you can handle the jets :(.

I've had 2 x BSOD and 1 x Freeze tonight... Brilliant night.

First BSOD's since the game started? Trying to get a gauge on my BSOD earlier that according to people here is one usually found with voltage issues, yet I've also heard graphics hardware, RAM, drivers, and Windows wasn't sure so it decided to use this error code.

I've tried my best to force another BSOD with various software; memtest86, x264 encoding benchmarks and it passes everything fine. :confused::p
 
I haven't used the sraw much in this game as finding the rpg better overall but have shot a fair amount of helis and even a couple of jets down but I am not anywhere as good as what I was in bc 2 with the At4. I also thought the same but trust me, once you practice non stop, it is incredibly easy, iirc it took me a few weeks and hundreds of shots (not just for helis but standard moving ground vehicles + the UAV) till I truly mastered it. Once you get use to it and know how to guide it, you are guaranteed to get hits 95% of the time, no matter the distance, speed etc. of the target. A lot of it comes down to the timing and when to fire, the rest is just leading your target, much like you would do when using the TV missile.

I learned from the best, a clan called WAR, pretty much everyone in that clan was deadly with it and was hilarious when you had like 5 or 6 guys on one team, as soon as the heli was up, you just see 5-6 rockets heading straight for it and the pilot/passenger bailing :D

One of the guys videos:


PS. be sure to mute the video :D

Once the game is fixed, am going to play more with the SRAW, only problem is I won't be capping/defending the objectives as much, as shooting the helis etc. down is really addictive :D

My first time using TV missiles in this game (never got them unlocked in bf 3 :() and I thought the same at first, impossible to control but once you get use to the sensitivity (don't keep messing with your sensitivity, just messes your aim up as you don't have time to adjust etc. besides I don't think vehicle sensitivity affects TV missile sensitivity??? IIRC mine is set to about 30%), they are extremely easy to use. As always, practice makes perfect!

Ahh bfbc 2 good times....

Indeed! Such an awesome game and imo still poops all over BF 4 and well compared bf 3, it nukes BF 3 from orbit! :D :p

Once I finish a few games I have got here and if BF 4 still isn't fixed..... going to reinstall it, the thought of ghille suit + c4 + VSS + AT4 + amazing rush maps = :cool:
 
........prediction........ if ur good with tv missile sraw really isn't that hard to use..

ahhh that clears up why i'm such pap with them then :(.

dunno then might just be me, i've never used the jets/helis etc cos i'm crap with them and its just a waste of a decent vehicle, so not seen tv's before, when i've tried they just seem very skittish, so i figured it was sensitivity ?

never really played bfbc 2 that much (in comparison to bf2/2142/3) but tempted to reinstall with all the comments.........

edit: download on its way so might have a looksee tomorrow.

I had some fantastic obliteration rounds there, with some real tense play and even teamwork.
On the whole the game ran pretty much flawlessly for the first time since launch, except for some flickering textures which could be down to my settings.
 
just wow.

choppy game, still crahing randomly, netcode even worse and i can find any gun I actually enjoy besides m16a4..

This game

If you have to run the M16A4 use M26 Dart with it, Then you are good for range and up close. I'd suggest you go ACE21 + Sup / Comp + Laser or L85 with Sup / Comp + Laser.

LOVE the L85, it's sooo good.

Played a bit tonight and really enjoyed it, even after feeling really ****** off about the Heli nerf.
 
New carbine has pretty good hip fire accuracy.

Made for CQC.

Ah, you mean the vehicles instead of the tv missiles. I find the vehicles to be fine, I use WASD + arrow keys for aircraft, can't get on with mouse + WASD......

I haven't got the tv missiles for the attack heli and doubt I will any time soon as a good jet pilot can still handle them with ease in one run........ Only got them for the boat.

Tv missiles are EXTREMELY sensitive, when controlling them, you only need the slightest of mouse movements.

BC 2 is utterly fantastic, in terms of sheer fun + simple gameplay + proper good balance, it makes bf 4 and BF 3 look bad imo. Balance etc. is great due to the lack of certain vehicles i.e. you only had transport heli, attack heli + 2 main tanks, not as many guns, unlock system was far better, didn't feel like a grind compared to bf 3/4, maps are very well designed, a few areas where it just became a grenade spam choke point (not as bad as metro or operation locker on 64 man though.........), none of the stupid vehicle damage system i.e. vehicle regen., mobility hit etc. all in all less features, vehicles, weapons etc. made it easier to balance and as a result made the gameplay better imo.

In terms of destruction, it still holds it own against bf 4 (bf 4 has the slight edge with all the levolution stuff) and makes bf 3 look terrible.... Sounds great and looks pretty good too.

And...... nowhere as many landslide wins as what are present in bf 3/4

Only thing I hate about it compared to bf 3/4 is the movement, feels incredibly clunky.
 
Leading target and prediction, if ur good with tv missile sraw really isn't that hard to use..

It is judging the distance of the missle and your target. Also aiming offsite is weird. I have also aimed and the missle goes haywire... not sure if it is a bug

Anyway just had round of CQ247 48 man and took down two attack helis and a transport with a SRAW

The double-SRAW trick also works a treat
 
We spent days and weeks hammering BC2. I loved the tagging dart. Epic fun. Also the Gustav was what the SMAW of BF4 is trying to be. Straight talking, straight shooting madness. Taken down so many helis with that and also mounted guns or fortified positions. TFU raped Vietnam also. BC2 Vietnam was epic fun. No crazy weapons, just good ol' fashioned hot lead!
