The Battlefield 4 Thread 2015

Sorry chaps, normal VM service has resumed. 2.4 down and 12.2 up.

Wonderful, some call center in India is going to be a nice rude call in the morning.

Chinning this **** off soon!

will do mate. It's my first custom watercooling loop so going to take my time with it. Gone for hard tubing as well so needs to be bent properly and carefully.
 
Ok chaps, I think after playing around with the Discord app (free ts variant) that I might cancel the TS.

Discord seems pretty decent, the UI is clean and uncluttered, it has the same things as TS in creating channels, PTT and voice activation, has admin permissions etc

And it's free.
 
It's like a hybrid of Skype and TS, has some really decent features.

I'm going to jump on it tonight to try and sort it out if anyone wants to join me.

Nerfs to AP in bound.

Shotguns need fixing not nerfing - if you run around with another weapon that can also kill with 1 hit i.e. 338-Recon as I often do its quite apparent that there is something not quite right with how the game reconciles the player histories involved - you need to kill a player with a shotgun a good 500-600ms before they fire or they will always get the kill and your shots in the relevant timeframe will always count for nothing (even when in reality your reacted and shot - even if you adjust for latency - before they did, have a lower latency connection to the server, etc.).

Who said anything about nerfing shotguns? AP = active protection.
 
Meh - like smoke and FLIR I think the shotgun rage is only really a thing on Metro and Locker which I don't really play and are not really true BF maps in my opinion
 
Its not just the nature of shotguns - I can deal with that its not just a CQB problem - this match last night:

http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/battlereport/show/1/642444893964979840/917377806/

Had no end of trouble against rayner69er in close to medium range i.e. I'd see someone or him shoot at them/him with the sniper rifle - see the hit effect on my screen, he'd then react and shoot me killing me and my shot that he reacted to would have no effect. There is clearly something broken with the way shotgun damage is reconciled in the "netcode" - more often than not I'd have to kill the target atleast a half second before the server saw him as firing or nothing I did in that time window would have any effect.

Not really surprising given how deeply buggy the game is I guess but quite frustrating for the way I tend to play a lot of the time.
