lol so true, like when you try and jump over a small rock or wall, sometimes i get the hump and just stand there saying "I'm just going to keep trying i don't care if i die" normally happens when someone blows up a wall and the resulting wall is like an impassable mountain for these "Soldiers"

The more "advanced" features and the more gimmicks they add to these games the more stupid things seem to slip through the cracks that should have been picked up early in whatever incredibly limited "testing" they did. I can knock down a tree then start firing at where it was on golmund and get leaves magically appearing out of thin air like the trees still standing, and I'm pretty sure this also blocks the rounds I'm firing from going any further.

Wonder if Dice or EA will EVER admit it was rushed out the door? I'm guessing not even though its pretty obvious it was rushed out in a half assed state with the amount of updates its already had that as usual break things and partially fix some other things.

You forget - in EA land that's not evidence it was an unfinished product, that's evidence of their superb commitment to customer satisfaction and continuing FREE development.

I only do 20% revs like it or leave it

I'm quite a firm believer that the more advanced and realistic they make an FPS the less fun it becomes, don't get me wrong BF4 is a fun game, but i just think they make it to easy for noobs to get kills.

seeing as dice/ea are just copying the cod routine now you wont get any different because new range of next gen consoles just come out so its farming time every october for them and activisions turn in november.

too much money to risk losing each year.

This.

when unlocking the L85A2 do you have to get the specific kills all in the same round?? ive just got defib kill (well four, cleared out a roof of campers with it the silent assassin

who need silencers on their gun when you have the defib) and also got a grenade kill but there says i still need to get them under the assaignment.

Well no, if I have shot the bloke that killed you ill give you a full zap, but if the target is still around you are getting 20% and a count yourself lucky.

Next time I won't bother I'll just tea bag you.

chris-82 · 18 Dec 2013 at 18:14

anybody know the best place/price for this right now with and without the china rising with preferbly.

Tone1979 · 18 Dec 2013 at 18:28

oh my ******* days..

2 rounds, clocked up maybe 45 kills....

I swear nearly ALL of them were trade kills.. I just don't get it...

Yes all in the same round for about 3-4 different gun assignments

Ragnahex · 18 Dec 2013 at 18:30

and they supposedly fixed that! hah... seriously ea is one big depressing hole. They made the mistake of asking me what i thought about origin.... don't think they will again

Tone1979 · 18 Dec 2013 at 18:43

It is amazing. Never played a game with so many trade kills in my life!

chris-82 · 18 Dec 2013 at 18:48

is this worth buying? as i see a lot of negativity about it

Yes, it's still very good the majority of the time just not as polished as it should be.

Frankly on public servers, if it's a standard pub scrub, they aren't getting a revive, if it's a sqd mate on TS ofc they'll get one if safe, but only 20% most of the time. BF3 you could do revives in BF4 it's too dangerous most of the time and most of the time they are better off redeploying.

ohhh yes, must have for me

Kippered · 18 Dec 2013 at 20:18

Not been playing it much due to the last patch. (SLI 670's). The new revive bug is worse than the old one and the flickering is doing my head in. I didn't mind the crashes and crappy netcode (although that is much better now) but the visual issues are to much.

Still worth buying though even with all of its issues.

It has the foundations of an extremely good game. As other people have said, it needs extreme polishing. If you are prepared to endure some of that, then it's a cracking game. You'll have a lot of fun.

I do agree with you. I think I just get too angry with people to be honest.
