Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

Well I have to recommend steering clear of the 1Para servers. Shame as it is a pretty good server. A few of us noticed when it fills up to 64 players it gets really laggy, we were talking about it and suddenly their admin comes on shouting expletives at us telling us to "do one" and that it is our game not his server.
If it is our game howcome only his server lags...plenty of others don't?
Anyway, my emblem spoke for itself in explanation for what the badmin did next :P

Wait, two IGLA missiles on one lock is getting nerfed? Why? It's not like it's a exploit or something. Do you have a source for that?

@Mark_JX 25 Nov

@gustavhalling Exploit: IGLA can lock a heli, fire then quickly unscope to lose lock, reload & fire and both missiles hit heli at same time.

Gustav Halling ‏@gustavhalling 25 Nov

@Mark_JX Yes we are fixing this in a upcoming patch for both IGLA and SRAW.
 
If they are going to nerf ways to bring down a heli/jet then they need to nerf the engineer reparing. You can be god like in a heli with just one person repairing

I used to play on 1Para but most of our clan believe it to be a rather laggy server and at times bad hit reg. If the Admin got that angry it's most likely other people have been complaining too

DICE call that teamwork though. I think I agree with them.

I wish they'd hurry up with the patch as I've not played since Saturday. I bet it turns up on Friday.

Has anyone noticed an issue with draw distance? Last time I played, I was running across a field on Zavod and plants/foliage were only appearing on screen when I was a few feet away from them. I think I was trying low graphical settings so that may be the reason.

The past few days have been utterly horrific for me.

Far too many 'trade' kills where I know for a fact I shouldn't have gone down but miraculously people have been able to get me.

The crashing is just beyond a joke. I've had more BF4.exe has stopped working errors in the past three days than ever before. The server I was just playing on just crashed too, marvellous.

I'm really having my ups and downs at the moment. I either love it, or despise it.
 
So I have like a bronze battle pack. What does it even mean is it one use only? I got parts fkr guns I don't have?

The battle packs are single use in that you just open them once. Those gun attachments will be available once you unlock that gun. (mostly, it's things like chinese red dot sights for american guns, whereas normally you'd have to unlock then make do with the american red dot sights)

The camouflage and dogtags are also available right away.

XP boosts have to be activated in game (press esc and see the icon in the lower right that says "XP boosts available". Most (all?) of them last an hour of game time from when you activate them.

I do find it funny when admins get really worked up and defensive about it - denying its a problem doesn't change the fact its the server thats not upto it :|


EDIT: Dunno if its the same 1Para as I used to play on their COD: Black Ops server a bit til I realised the admins were total plonkers - some people were obviously using instant snap aimbots but the admins denied it til they were blue in the face claiming the game was protected by VAC or PB or whatever and no one could possibly be cheating.

Clear this up for me please. I've only ever played commander on the iPad and never in the full game. Last night I was playing on FMUK's server, the map was paracel storm. Anyway I was in the jet, which I am useless with. To my joy I managed to shoot down the enemy spectre gunship and land a few kills. Upon its destruction another one immediately took its place. So destroyed that too. But this continued. Every time I shot it down another would take its place instantly. So is the gunship spamable on that map?

Cool thanks for the info. I'll open my next onr tonight and see what I get.

If the objective that gives the commander the gunship is still under his team's control, he can spawn another after the cool down period. It *might* have been a fast vehicle spawn server.

Speaking of commander mode..

You get the cruise missile on the Shanghai map if you own C. If the building has collapsed, firing the missile at the site as soon as the other team tries to cap it usually gives you a good multikill and helps you not to lose the missile. I've had some interesting rounds against other commanders trying to time the EMP which takes out the other commander for 15 secs to prevent him from squashing my team when they are trying to cap C.
