*** Official Battlefield: Hardline Thread ***

Hey. Is anyone playing this yet? I have a quick question which might see odd.

My 11 year old wanted this game and I've always been okay with him playing COD (Multiplayer Only), but I heard this games multiplayer is packed to the rafters with swearing. Okay I know it's an 18 rated game and this is due to the violance more than anything, but I'm not keen on him hearing cursing continosly while playing. This has never been a problem with COD, but he says his friends are moving onto BF Hardline now.

Sure it's easy to say that I'm stupid for thinking violance is okay, but swearing is not and to tell me to sod off, but just wanted to check a few things.

Can you disable the profanity?
or can you disable the NPC Voice (assuming it is an NPC)?

failing the above can I switch the language on the UK version?

Speaking as parent of a 12 year old.Don't be so naive to think the language in battlefield is any worse than what he hears in the playground.

You'll be astonished when you find out what words they really know but are afraid to say in front of you.

We have a rule in our house, he swears all he wants in front of his friends, but he has to learn the time and the place. In front of his parents, and in front of teachers, are times when its not suitable, in front of his friends is.
Swearing is not the reason to be de stopping your kid from playing battlefield or COD games. If he's fine with COD, he's fine with battlefield.

Yup there is loads of mother this and mother that. When you spot a enemy you stick your middle finger up etc. Not for kids.

Give over. You think secondary age kids don't know what giving the finger is and don't know these words ? They know them. But if you've got a good kid they don't use it in front of you. Sit down with your kids and tell them to swear, and tell them to let you know what words they know. I'll bet cold hard cash they know more than you think they know ;)

Same here, another order that shipped the same day arrived yesterday but not BF.. I don't believe they actually shipped it then just prepared it to be shipped. I've purchased a copy elsewhere and will be sending mine back to them when/if it arrives.

Still nothing from Shopto for me even after they sent me a nice photo of the package.

I have to wait 15 days for a refund apparently but will just make a paypal claim.

Will not be using again will stick with Amazon in the future.

Still waiting for my toad Amiibo they claimed
To have sent on Wednesday. Won't be using them
Again, hoping it arrives in today's post.
 
Buckled and picked this up in a Asda this morning whilst doing the weekly shop. Managed to get the last copy haha.

Anyone on ps4 is welcome to add me (in sig).

I haven't got mine either, there is no way it was posted on Wednesday. Final Fantasy was posted at the same time and arrived on Thursday.

Also I looked at the 'picture' proof of postage and strangely enough it does not have my address on it, every other order I've had from them has the picture of the package which includes the address, this one doesn't :

Also that is dated the 13th March yet they charged me on the 16th.. would be interested to know if your photo was similar to that?
 
Grabbed my PS4 copy (also last one) in Argos today, enjoyed the beta and looking forward to playing this tonight.

Shopto cannot even allow me to change my home address. I moved. So naturally I went to change my address to update their records, nah. Tells me I cannot update my address at this time...

Useless service IMO and been using Amazon or tesco , they aren't the cheapest but never had any issues with either of these two..

My photo shows my address.

I'm utter rubbish at this game worse than BF4. I just cannot kill anyone, I empty clips into them before they turn round and 1 shot kill me with 0 health...

I'm naturally rubbish but findng this really frustrating.....
 
Played a few rounds of Rescue last night, it's really good fun, 5v5 one life so once your dead that's it, got to rescue 1 hostage or kill the enemy team.

Conquest on this with 64 players is really tough, because it's so quick to die by the time you've started to register being hit you have little to no time to react, i prefer the smaller mode's like Heist, hotwire and rescue.
 
Only tried conquest and tdm so far and have to say I am enjoying it mostly. Some of spawning in tdm is horrible though as take 2 steps from spawn and dead again. I am not sure if this is due to spawn system or just the number of players means you are going to spawn so near to someone.

Edit: For conquest you really need a squad that sticks together and works together.

It's the amount of players, it's supposed to be only 32 players but for some reason they messed up and launched with 64.
