Right I need someone to jump on as commander tonight so that I can get 11 more UCAV kills!

Going to jump on for silk road now to get 2 more bomber ribbons.

what rig you running russ?

and final stand would definitely be the one I'd go for. I really love it, it's still fresh but none of the other softs co*ks wanna play it lol

I'm on:

16GB RAM @2400mhz
120GB SSD (Need a bigger one)
2x AMD R9 270x's @1130 core 1420 Mem
Windows 8.1
i5 4670k @4.6ghz
Water cooled

I really need a bigger SSD for my game though, as I had no money in the black Friday deals

Oh and a sound blaster Z.

Youtube video of the "user12345" chap. His little snippet is at the end, I think as a community we should all report him and get him away from Bf4.

Horrible little troll.

Available on my Battlelog due to Firefly swearing again.

It always says it has 'stopped working' as soon as it opens.

Josh · 4 Dec 2014 at 20:28

Right click on game in Origin and verify the install, might have to install something missing.

Just checked Battlelog bud, same issue, check out the post by IKobi he suggests a fix.

Quick Google suggests checking flash, C+, punk buster, AMD drivers and running bf as admin.

russell664 · 4 Dec 2014 at 20:44

I have done all of the above, Directx installed a few bits.

I will let you know. Thanks for the help.

EDIT: The above did nothing

The new event log is as follws:

What really annoys me is that this is a new windows install, with updated drivers and everything new.

Any more idea's?

I can make it launch it 32 bit mode, but that runs at all low settings. God knows why the 64bit one does not work!

EDIT: Nailed it! It was Digital Rivertuner, turning on the 'Custom Direct 3D support on' worked a treat!

TonyTurbo78 · 4 Dec 2014 at 22:53

have you installed and updated punkbuster manually? if not download it here and update http://www.evenbalance.com/?page=pbsetup.php

Also, BF4 is a sucker for big overclocks on GPUS...try and just play a game dialling your GPU overclocks back 50mhz or even a 100mhz and try again. If it doesn't crash you know where you stand

Fun games tonight, mine whoring for that Ultimate Engineer assigment is frustrating but rewarding as when you get the kill. Also, had an epic sniper battle at the back of F with another guy towards the end of the zavod round. He headshotted me twice, so decided to go recon. Got 8 killstreak on him about 500 meters out with a bunch of headshots lol.

EDIT..JUST REMEMBERED, YOU SAID YOU FIXED IT IN TS DIDNT YOU...AND I MISSED YOUR EDIT AT THE BOTTOM LOL.

I personally don't bother with gpu oc's for this game, cpu clocked up does help on the 64 player cq maps.

Twirlywoos · 5 Dec 2014 at 02:43

Cte patch went live apparently

Jets can now turn tighter radius' depending on speed, no longer limited to 313
Flight physics applied to all helis too

JakePNEFC · 5 Dec 2014 at 03:22

Would it be worth upgrading my 3570k?

MissChief · 5 Dec 2014 at 04:04

No. Your spec looks pretty good if you're talking the spec in your signature. You could go for a 1440p or ultrawide 21:9 monitor if you're looking to spend money but the CPU isn't somewhere that needs changed. There would be very little benefit in doing so and IMO you'd be unlikely to notice it short of benchmark figures in most games.

Wow lots of updates in the CTE. This one interested me.

THIS RELEASE: Today marks the first release of the new built in team balancer!
There are quite a few scripts to team balance servers out there (for PC atleast) – but we think this is something that should be handled by the game in a more graceful manner. In this release the balancer rebalances at End of round and when new players join:

New players will be placed in the team where they are deemed most needed (this can lead to lop sided teams in terms of numbers – this is ok).

Team switching is now also handled by the team balancer, so at times you won’t be able to switch teams in the current setup.

What is still missing (coming in future updates) is clear announcements to the players on what is going on (this will be coming in future updates).

We have plans to test Mid-round balancing as well, but we need to get the initial logic right before we start testing this.

Good games last night, nice to be on the winner's team!

**OCUK GAME NIGHT**

How many of us OcUK players are up for a few large conquest games tonight? I'm craving some decent team play - any takers?

I say game night, will be about 3-4 hours - I should be able to get on for 1800-1830!

HazardO · 5 Dec 2014 at 08:57

Not for me tonight, I have a public house to patronise.

1kiwi · 5 Dec 2014 at 08:58
