The Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

[Mynight]

Anyone noticing any lag/rubberbanding lately? Happens in both BF3 and BF4, just wondering if opening up ports helps.

Yeah I'm getting more of it than normal. I have no idea about opening ports to solve it. Not really sure why it would though.

Some good games with Mynight tonight, just on a pistol and knife server, got plenty of kills and got quite a fair few unlocks for the Deagle now.

Will they ever fix the mastery dog tags not showing the number of kills? It's been a year now...

Will they ever fix the game... It's been OVER a year now...

Fixed that for you

It's most likely to be the server your playing on, or the players your playing with.

I noticed the opposite yesterday, jumped on a server and my ping was lower than usual. Didn’t think anything of it, until I started playing and it felt like my fps was higher than normal.

Also anyone else seen this message about more free content coming to BF4?

New maps? New guns? I hope so, but most likely it will just be new medals and achievements...

Seems like the hint is at the end:

"We’re aware of – and humbled by – the many requests of re-creating classic Battlefield maps within the Battlefield 4 universe. Now we have a question for you: if a reimagining of a Battlefield classic map was to happen, which map would that be?"

Playing on a laggy server can indeed have quite an impact on fps in this game. Quite often ive seen my minimums drop into the low 40's on a bad server. On a good one theyre usually in the 80-90's on my res, Slightly less when using 2560x1600 under DSR.

well i am a happy bunny now found out my beloved coyote sight will soon be customizable to how i want it

smaller, bigger, color, transparency - you have full control.

 

[ValiantUK91]

JGStonedRaider - you play in any of the 8v8 leagues? A few people ive started to play BF4 with are considering starting 8v8. Planning on joining the nordic league to start of with

Didnt know you could put a coyote sight on a mortar.

But in all seriousness, will theese changes be available on any other sights?

 

[~>Dg<~]

yes apparently

i kill double what i kill with my mortar with my lmg

One of the better montages ive seen in ages and I'm not really into sniping.

And this is for anyone who enjoys the stealth jey

nice editing on the first video.

 

[Mynight]

That first video is amazing! C4 a chopper from parachute is the best thing I've seen .

 

[~>Dg<~]

most of those are set up but the editing is great.

if you go on twitter for the big bf youtubers they often ask for people to help out to make the videos. so you are told to do this and that for the shot they record.

must say i dont like montages normally but that first video was good

Long range sniping in this is poor compared to bf3. Bandar desert was great for 2000 yard + shooting. Maps in bf4 aren't big enough.

I don't believe you. Next you'll tell me wrestling is fake as well

Just played some of the new maps. They are really, really good. In my opinion, some of the best BF maps of the series so far; especially Giants of Karelia. Since release I think this game has improved immeasurably. Definitely had my moneys worth out of it and only Rank 44. Was quite disappointed at the start, but the recent patches have improved things massively. The pace and 'feel' seems to be just right now.

We just had our first child 2 weeks ago though, so probably won't have much time to play for a good while yet!
