as I like to say, never underestimate destruction.
its fun blowing walls out to get those snipers/campers.
Hopefully BC 2 level of destruction is back this time round.
BF 3 had terrible destruction in comparison (B2k maps were decent though and the fine detail destruction in CQ was great) to BC 2. The amount of walls etc. that couldn't be destroyed was a joke, no terrain destruction (was in the alpha), full on speeding tanks getting stopped by small trees and poles etc.
The amount of destruction wasn't the only problem imo but also the animation/how it happened, loved it when in bc 2 just before the building collapsed, you would see dust etc. falling around the edges, the rumbling sound plus the camera shaking.
Of course though, you don't want everything being destructible otherwise it would ruin the map somewhat and leave no cover from aircraft etc. (although that is already a problem with most of the bf 3 maps anyway) but they could have done so much more with it.
But are they fixing the very broken suppression system that is currently implemented in BF3? I like suppression as a concept just not the horrible way it is now in BF3. You should NOT be rewarded for being terrible at aiming on a PC.
The idea of inaccuracy during suppression is fine by itself but make it through blur and weapon sway thus enable player skill to compensate for it instead of just redirecting bullets as if the barrel itself was totally off. It ****es me off!.. end of rant
It has been changed from what I read.
- no blur screen, at least nowhere as much (utter joke what it is BF 3, might as well just put vaseline on your screen for the entire game
)
- the gun will sway instead when suppressed so a good player should be able to counteract it
- suppression only happens with LMGs and other weapons like sniper rifles etc. at least afaik those are the only ones to deliver a substantial amount of suppression
Personally I would only like to see suppression happen when the bullets are impacting walls near you and/or during explosions.
Graphically that video also looked quite a bit better than the last trailer of the map with the skyscraper falling, more natural elements in it I suppose making it look better.
Yeah the latest clips that youtubers like lvlcapgaming, shosho are showing of (same map as the alpha) look A LOT better than the alpha footage we saw at e3 etc.
EDIT:
As expected premium is making a return for BF 4
Great to see the jump the que system is back..........NOT!
day 1 DLC is such a joke! Should be included in the base game. It is fine when it is released later on in the year when the extra content has actually been developed after the main game release, not before the release.........
Next big thing will be splitting the base game into two parts and selling them for £40 each
Just imagine if people didn't buy that premium **** for BF 3, we wouldn't have had it for BF 4 then!
I just hope they remove the premium only servers ****!
