I introduced Smrtka to Lumphini Garden the other day and I think he liked it

Only issue with the map is the sniper count. As long as it's under control it's allot of fun. I also think that you really only want max 40 players otherwise it just develops into a spam fest.

The other map which I havn't given much of a chance is Propaganda. A lot of you tubers say it plays like a real BF.

I might be on this afternoon now, the wife just surprised me with...

A new huge 52kg wooden bed I have to a)move upstairs alone b)fit alone c)take old bed apart d)take to dump

Nice that she appreciates how much DIY I have done this week that she is giving me more to do.

So i had barely played BF4 for like a year, despite enjoying it at the start and having Premium etc.

Started playing again the last few days and loving it, found myself getting really frustrated on vehicle maps so started joining infantry only servers and now im having much more fun

The funny thing was after loggin in after a year odd out of game the amount of battlepacks etc i had were mental, so now i have enough xp boosts to last me till 2016

WIll give it a few days and see if im still enjoying it them might join some of you folks on here to get boosted as a noob

Yup, snipers can be a PITA on that map, they love the railway.....

I have played both 48 and 64 on that map and 48 is definitely better for it.

It is a superb map for UCAV action

Speaking of which, that was a lovely ucav that I got on Tony on flood zone last night, iirc, something along the lines of this;

"right I am just running to E now under the bridge"

*I launch UCAV*

"awwwwww what, how did I die!?.......... awww nex, you dirty ucav whore! that was just dirty!"

Never really played battlefield 2 etc. Bad company 2 was my first proper PC multiplayer game that I put serious time into, without a doubt my fav. MP game by far still. I was tempted to buy it again in the steam sale (can't find my serial key for last one) but I imagine that it would be rather dead by now but propaganda reminded me a lot of BC 2 map style, especially the side of the map with all the destructible houses, I miss the epic destruction in bc 2, in fact I miss everything about BC 2

More DIY work?! :eek:

Hope your wife is rewarding you for all of these jobs

I'm supposed to be clearing out the spare room and building a guest bed this afternoon too

I might just play BF4 instead though

I don't miss the no prone and no run and strafe, but otherwise it was epic fun.

setter · 3 Jan 2015 at 12:47

Lumpy gardens is probably the best of the dragons teeth maps. Pearl market being the worst. Also enjoy a few of the naval strike ones.

TonyTurbo78 · 3 Jan 2015 at 12:54

what are the better 24/7 Lockers servers guys?

Nexus18 · 3 Jan 2015 at 12:57

Pearl market = the worst map in a MP FPS game ever

HazardO said:

I loved having no prone in that game, made the game less campy and quicker paced imo.

But yes, that is the main thing which is HORRIBLE, the movement, no strafe etc. Eurgh

I still prefer the gun, destruction etc. sounds in bc 2 too, just something about it that sounds cleaner and more refined.

I miss my bc 2 recon class so much too, the ghille suit + VSS + motion balls + c4. Whilst we have the motion balls in bf 4, they just seem pointless since you already have all the UAV spam crap etc.

Oh and the knifing, it was sooooo much better, no stupid 1 minute long animation where you get killed half the time... I remember going on a knifing spree on africa harbour on the second last set of coms, sneaked behind them all and there was a group of them bunched together, knifed a few guys but the medic i.e. rambo and jesus in one

kept reviving them and I just kept knifing them, that was one reason why I loved the ghille suit on hardcore mode, it was hard to tell if the recon players were on your team or the enemy team

Ah, the good old days

Fire_fly · 3 Jan 2015 at 12:58

no idea, but I am up for a lockers point fest, need to use those 200% xp boosts that I got last night.

TonyTurbo78 · 3 Jan 2015 at 12:59

Nex, give me some decent 24/7 lockers please

HazardO · 3 Jan 2015 at 13:02

Don't know, I just follow the crowd for lockers.

Just noticed more than half my favourite servers are part of the "ADMINS AGAINST DICE POLITICS" which means they'll be taken down later today

Edit: Scratch that they are already down

Tony, mind if I join you for some lockers?

Fire_fly · 3 Jan 2015 at 13:03

What is that all about?

Also i've joined the cool crowd and removed the OcUk tags and changed the emblem, let see what that does.

24/7 Zavod of cause!

EDIT: Just saw this on reddit and thought I would share. The frostbite engine is truly amazing, way ahead of anything else out there right now.

Pilot view, gunner view.

not at all man. Am on TS, but not yapping away today. Misses doing some work prep for next week, and I've been told to play but no talking, shouting, rageing and swearing lmao

Fire_fly · 3 Jan 2015 at 13:07

I was just about to join the lockers server that I was on the other day.

You guys on TS?

You are asking me about 24/7 locker servers?!? You know my stance on 24/7 locker/metro high ticket servers!!!!

Hazard and locky are the people to ask for that sort of server

wetness???? I always pee pee my pants when I see nexus on the other team in a heli or jet....does that count?

JGStonedRaider · 3 Jan 2015 at 14:37

I always pee myself in the Atk Heli in 8v8 whenever I see SRAW's coming towards me, does that count?
