***THE BF4 BENCHMARKS THREAD***

I would hazard a guess at thread limitation (CPU bottleneck essentially) as you're on an i5 with dual 7970's.

You could try firing up mantle? Though you may need to monitor Vram usage and adjust settings accordingly.
 
Its foggy and raining here AND I have work at 5am tomorrow, no alcohol for me, again :(

The worst part is I have loads of booze in the house.

Its the people of Ocuk that I feel worse for, been a while since they've reaped from my drunken charity :p
 
I despised hardline to begin with, it grew on me towards the end of the beta though in agreement with most, it feels like a £10 dlc pack not a £40 stand alone.

Not that bothered about launch delay, the new borderlands and gta games will consume my life as of October, hardline wouldn't have gotten a look in.
 
All in all its been alright for me lately, hit detection still waaay out in some instances (getting shot while 10m around a corner) but besides that not bad for a game nearly a year old.

CZ-3A1 = close quarters carnage, brilliant gun, a shame the bulldog and deagle are hand held nuclear warheads. The most unbalanced weapons I've seen in a Bf game.
 

The weapon I've found most effective against bulldog users at short to med range is the CZ-3A1, only kicks out 20 damage per shot but packs a 1000 rate of fire vs the bulldogs 700 and has next to no recoil at all.

A little math helps on weapon selection:

Rate of fire / damage = true powah

Bulldog: 700 / 40 = 17.5
CZ-3A1: 1000 / 20 = 50
Deagle: howeverfastyoucanrepeatedlytapLMB / 85 = 1000 megaton nuclear arsenal.
 
I had no idea I could even set a video to private Tbh, it must have defaulted to that after I'd enabled the video, it got pulled as I was verified or something!

Did a little testing today with shadowplay, game dependant the hit is 10-20%.
 
Unfortunate force of habit, I tend to use lasers with the 3.4/4x sights as it makes tracking targets at range a little easier. Most of the time I kit out with the tactical flashlight, nothing like beaming the power of a thousand Sun's at someone as you shoot them :D
 
It did cross my mind after we'd finished that I should have recorded it, will never forget knifing Greg then taking the pair of you out on the stairs :D

Was on fire last night Tbh, my accuracy was something like 90% over 30+ kills.
 
Can you try without Afterburner running?

This happened to me the other night, afterburner running = stuck at loading screen, as soon as I killed it the game fired right up. Raptr also does this.
 
Strange that a clean install of BF4 works with dx and Afterburner. Once you select Mantle then try to go back to dx it won't run with Afterburner running. Close Afterburner and dx loads.
Any ideas?

Have this same issue though with nvidia, so wouldn't bank on it being a mantle associated issue.
 
I would imagine it go's through a stringent testing cycle before merging with retail, the last thing dice need is to update it and it feel fantastic yet have some undiscovered game breaking bug.

Cte is for premium members only.

Will try get time to download it at the weekend.

As for the dc device hung error, I've had that at stock a few times.
 
Every game does, it's called alpha, beta and rc testing phases, usually carried out before it go's to retail and they take your money :p

My thoughts on the current cte...certainly a smoother game, I'm not sure if it's my mouse setting on the cte but I'm hitting very little, like the hit reg zone is too small. Will try more later on, beers probably not helping.
