The Battlefield 4 Thread 2015

Had some good commander rounds yesterday.

Note to Stulid, you're very predictable in the mobile AA. You should try and put the mobile bit in the name to use :p and move to a new location atleast every 40 seconds to avoid a cruise missile attack only if the enemy has the flag captured that grants it.

About that message that appears on screen if an attack is coming, i'm not 100% sure but I think your commander should give an evac order warning of an incoming strike. If it is automatically given then from a commander's pov it renders missile attacks even more useless as we have to deal with proxy attacks and emp drones.

If your commander gives you a warning the AA can destroy the missile, I posted a video on it.

Does anyone know what the splash damage is on cruise missiles, can it kill people in buildings if you target above it?
 
With the release of Windows 10 just under 2 weeks away can anyone advise if there are issues with BF4? I wonder if DICE are planning to patch in DX 12 support?

Splash damage with it is highly unreliable, sometimes I've killed people in buildings more often not.

You can also destroy a hostile cruise missile as commander.

I need to remember just to sit in spawn and snipe when you lot are on lol - no fun trying to play serious when your team is just casuals against 2-3 sets of organised vehicles.

Erm yeah, sorry. We're only dirty casuals ourselves, it's just the power of TS and having played with each other so often, knowing each other's play style.
We do seem much more likely to win a round if at least one of the tanks/lavs is under OcUK or Xin's control.

No chance, they won't patch titenfall of BFH either, far too much testing involved for no financial gain.

If you notice it in time you can setup an EMP attack in the missiles path - it does damage over time so positioning has to be good plus takes a little while to activate so you have to be on the ball.

Think you can also destroy it with a proxy attack but IIRC you get more points doing it with EMP.

I never knew that, good tip. I haven't played that much commander for BF4, but given the commander's abilities to spot enemy players and mask the team from being spotted, they can certainly swing the balance of power.

Played hacker (commander) on HL quite a bit, the role is even more OP there. Managed to get to no. 10 in the UK within two weeks and haven't played since. :D

I'm afraid it is, i5 is a bit of a bottleneck in this game with sli. Had the same issue with a 3570k and 670 sli in bf3. Eventually moved to a 3770k.

It runs Ultra at 1440p perfectly, I just tabbed out and noticed it at 100%. Does BF4 make use of hyper threading then? I have such a good clocking i5. I really don't want to try my luck at silicon lottery again.
