Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

Posted this in the graphics section but thought I would post here as well:

I can confirm that medium terrain decoration is in fact ultra ( looks soooo much better, loads of grass, lots of moving bushes e.t.c)

Pics:

Set at Medium in graphics options:





Set at Ultra in graphics options




I also tried low and high and low (should be high) is like medium (ultra) but with not as many bushes and high (should be medium) is like ultra (or low) but with a bit more grass

Fortunately it doesn't impact framerates too much (from a quick glance I would say about 5%)

What a **** up

I wonder how many other settings have this problem!
 
Its a great anti vehicle weapon, and pretty versatile as you can also use it for long range sniping

^^This. I have taken so many boats and LAVs out with it at long range... especially when you have the time/cover to use the double SRAW trick (search Youtube)

I am also learning how to take choppers but haven't quite figured out how to judge rocket distance/tracing. I'll get there...

So much fun taking out choppers who feel they are invincible and on a mad spree. Typing "And boom" in chat really makes them rage
 
I keep getting this odd issue where I try to join a server but it just hangs on "connecting" for a bit then inevitably closes. I thiiinnnkkkkkk the issue is when I'm joining on friends but there's a queue, i feel it tries to skip the queue (seen 4 in queue then I'm suddenly loading the game still with people in queue) and so can't connect. It will do this every time I try to join my friends on that server until there are clearly some spots free (say server pop is 57/64), then it will join no problem. tad annoying as I just want to join on mates but it faffs me about :(

oh well :P did a double SRAW on a boat yesterday and felt like a boss :D getting my aggressive recon on, but still can't hip fire that sniper for **** :p rezzing bugs still annoying me.

spawn protection is still ****. I spawn, die before my screen stops being black. yet shooting one dude and two buddies spawn on him, first guy down, but still doing short bursts into the other two and zero ****s were given, eventually started to damage one (the one that spawned in just prior to the other) and think I actually got him or at least was on low health but the other guy didnt get a scratch....and oh yea... they were all inside a cargo container :p just sucks as it never seems to work in my favour :(
 
Got 2 consecutive SRAW hits on a fully loaded transport helicopter yesterday and didn't quite take it down :( These were medium range shots so really felt like I deserved all the points :D
 
The game seems 100% stable for me now, 34 games with not one crash, did have it application error when I force quit to start a webex but that's neither here nor there.

Now I'm just faced with bullet sponges, but I'll have to blame myself and my aim for that problem :p
 
I'm rather enjoying the zuni rockets on the APC. Main cannon followed by a quick switch to zuni rockets, switching back to find the main gun has reloaded by then, takes down other vehicles fast, can even take out MBTs it you start the fight and use your mobility to avoid too many hits from their main gun.

I swear that on occasion I've been hit at least ten times, managed to run round a corner and escape, there is definitely weirdness going on. More often than not I'm taken down quickly, but I've experienced the almost invincible bullet sponge behavior a couple of times.

I have noticed a couple of times where i think there needs to be so buffing and nerfing of some weapons and vehicles.

In all honesty, 2 hits with any rockets to anything flying should give you a definite kill. 1 Should definitely disable. IMO, i mean, think about it for a second.
 
Anyone elsed having their joystick Y Axis inverted when flying helicopters?
I don't know if this is a bug with my joystick(Thrustmaster) or within the game ?
When I pull the joystick back the nose goes down and if I push it forward the nose goes up. - In jets it is fine ie I pull it back and the nose goes up...
I tried a search but couldn't find anything.

Where it gets complicated is when you have engineers repairing.

Have you checked your not using inverted controls for helicopter?

They use a separate setting from jets
