Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

Dammit, need to buy 8.1 full release to play ESL cup as wire doesn't work with the preview, do we have any MSDN developers here that could help with that wink wink, would love you forever x x x

lol yea I found the same, was going to have a glorious moment to shine when no one else was available and I was the last choice (lol thanks) to play for mates in a match...signed up to ESL and got the wire n everything... then.... "nope.jpg wire doesn't work with ya shizzle" haha :p

I'll talk to you tonight....ya never know ;)
 
I've noticed the game feels 'laggy' for me at times - It only happens when my FPS dips below 90; even though I'm still getting a steady 70 odd frames, it feels like I'm getting around 30... cores are un-parked and I've disabled HT but haven't seen much difference - I'm still on windows 7; was wondering if I should upgrade to 8.1 and see if that helps :confused:

I've found that HT actually makes BF4 smoother on most setups unlike earlier BF games where it can cause stutter.

Sometimes it seems that the physics engine "explodes" when theres a lot of damaged stuff around and it feels laggy around those areas even with good framerates.

One thing that seems to cause stutter in the game also even with higher framerates is if your system or VRAM is on the edge of stability - turning it down a couple of notches has helped in a couple of cases I know of.
 
I love trying to do the dino roar :mad: "ok push the push in 3,2, Nooo. I got shot on 1 FFS"

Ok mate I will check to see if I have them unlocked and equip them, we did have a decent run on Dawnbreaker, the ammo even when tap firing goes so quickly, I need to learn to shoot the whole mag and not leave 3 or 4 while it reloads.

I even give up my tank for that round to do the dino roar :(


Indeed! :cool:

Shame I crashed the first time though :o So hard readjusting from the extremely quick and agile scout heli to the "tank heli" (perfect description by netphreak :D) and then some dick rammed us :mad:

Also, just call out targets so I can turn around, keep still etc. etc.

Will have to use my second screen for the battle screen/map so I can see where their helis, aa etc. is.

I'm getting the hacusations thrown at me left right and centre now, I need to figure a way of not biting in the chat window lol. Maybe just killing the person that threw out the hackusation is the best way lol

Tony bot = too stronk!

Dem hax doh!

Yeah I am going to start turning chat off in game, I bite way to easy and then spend most of the game destroying them in chat and in game! Let my bullets do the talking.

Just do a Nexus and me -

Randomer1234: Nexus hacker cheat wimp
Nexus2119: u mad?
J0SH86: u mad?

NOOOOOOOOO! You will miss all the rage then :(

haha that was funny last night on zavod, masterfreak iirc??? Kept killing him and I think he was the guy in the artillery each time as well, as soon as he started the hackusations, you and I post "u mad?" at the exact same time and then he replied again and we both posted something along the lines of "he real mad :D" at the same time too haha :D He then started to go on about us and animal porn lol..........

LOL, what really happened is Nexus downloaded Westie's cGbot, then Josh and Tony have gotten hold of it #360n0sc0pe

hehe :D

oh yea did you see my frustration in chat last night Nexus? :p I joined on you on zavod 311, was on the wrong team so just jumped in a little bird....flew from the deployment to the first flag and i got killed by the game to team balance.... ok.... so then I was on your team.... tried the same again... but it kept killing me after being alive for about 10-15 seconds to team balance but because it was also auto balancing me to be on your team I died about 5 times in a row just to be switched back and forth! ever so slightly annoying xD

I did see you posting something about the team balance :D
 
i was rather behaved to be fair, wasn't so fussed as there were only like 20 tickets left or something and I didn't get any deaths for it :p .... if it had been the start then it would have been a bit more colourful ;) probably up for more rounds tonight so I'll probably join on you at some point :)

WTB 2 engineers, one with stinger and other with rpg to constantly rep my little bird and help with tanks and choppers :D (oh and not bail out if I happen to "bump" into things)

Yup I'll be on at the usual time again probably! :) Really need bigger squads now, so many people joining on us!


hehe, you can have anyone except my repair bitches Josh and dodger :D :p
 
Well after telling us that team UK Captain was going to be up for public vote, the ESL admins went ahead and gave the 5v5 Captaincy to Dogbert. Does that mean he's 8v8 captain too?

Don't know who dogbert is doesn't he do the commentary for esl games? Have no idea how good of a player he is....

Should do Matt's 8 vs dogberts 8 to settle it....

And who are the 5 UK players playing in domination?

I'll bring an RPG and a repair tool.

If you can persuade someone to throw an ammo crate into the back seat before we take off I'll be over the moon. I always run out of ammo when I'm the repair beech and end up doing fly-by pistol shots at rooftop recons (or one one memorable occasion, a fly-by repair tool kill.)

i asked repi about HT all he said is there is no performance hindrance using it from what he seen but had not tested various machines on or off. thats the head of the frostbite engine.
 
I've seen very little performance difference between HT on or off but the difference in smoothness atleast for me is obvious - with HT off around damaged buildings, etc. it just becomes a stuttery mess even when rendering pretty much the same on paper fps.

It does seem to depend a little bit system to system though for some reason.
 
I only tried it with ht off when running sli, minimum fps tanked down to single figures a few times and the amount of stuttering left the game unplayable. Experienced this as well on bf3 when using an i5 3570k with sli, though the stuttering wasnt as bad as in bf4. Cpu use on both systems was very high and gpu use wasnt consistently maxing out. On bf3 the difference from switching to a 3770k was quite pronounced even when running a lower oc, (4.2 i7 vs 4.5 i5).

He does. He used to be a pro apparently (no idea what for), but he's not actively playing bf4 for a team so as far as i'm concerned he shouldn't be captain. Dom team is 3 guys from XTS (Phantom, Revo and Hadoukenzzz), mYm-Waffy and they're after a 5th, maybe a sub or two.
