Getting an insane memory leak where the game eventually uses 12GB of RAM after about 30 minutes and then crashes :/

Edit: Using the 32 bit client seems to have fixed it, and the stuttering too. Hmm.

Yup GG's last night. Had some close rounds on a few maps.

Much rage also. Will be on tonight for more of the same.

There is not really that much relearning to be honest. I'm actually enjoying the game more post patch.

I don't see why they need to screw with tanks though - they are not necessarily OP and are great fun as they are.

But they nerfed bunny hopping also, try it.

Yes I am the person constantly hopping from flag to flag or hopping to avoid bullets.

Dem bunnies were OP! Not noticed the nerf but will try it out

I seem to only have noticed bunny hopping being a problem since the patch TBH.

1kiwi · 4 Jun 2015 at 11:15

Maybe because of the damage model changes.

There isn't bunny hopping in BF games, this isn't a quake / CS game. The fake bunny hopping was nerfed from BF3 into BF4 so has never been effective in BF4

I've had a couple of tricky bunnyhoppers to deal with as a tank gunner recently, but that could easily be a combination of laggy tank and bad aim.

Well there is BF bunny hopping then there is CS bunny hopping. Give it 30 secs to kick in

edit ***search phoon too much for zblock**** for best CS bhop vid

HazardO · 4 Jun 2015 at 13:12

Reminds me of the good old Q2/Q3 days.

Throw in a rocket jump for good measure.

/In before Buffetslayer with tribes

JGStonedRaider · 4 Jun 2015 at 13:22

Well the tribes guys just took bhopping and ran with it

1kiwi · 4 Jun 2015 at 13:33

I still remember the bunnny hoping days of CS < 1.3. You could make it to CT spawn before they got out and get quad headshots. But yes, tribes is really the king in this area. Impulse jumps, sking and routes.

Tribes Ascend had the potential to be one of the best competitive games ever and Hi Rez screwed it up

~>Dg<~ · 4 Jun 2015 at 14:09

my old admin mate used to rage at me for bunny hopping and every game at start said " if you bunny hop just once i will ban you you dolphin diving bunny hopping ********

"

which just used to make us hop even more.

Mynight · 4 Jun 2015 at 14:18

It's a valid tactic. I still jump in the hope that the extra fractions of a second I get from them shooting my legs rather than chest I get a kill.

That's insane but yeah in BF it's not that bad, but remove the video it has swearies.

I like to call it doing the funky chicken

Hazard forgive me

LOL It's that cheating scum on the team you were playing on I was getting frustrated with.

It didn't help that you were getting excited about spawn killing me shortly after I'd been killed by the man with no gun every time. OcUKrs should stick together.
