Not sure if a serious?
I am serious.
Apart from the game recently crashing more at the end of the round I am interested to know just what he feels is broken about it?
It's been happening on the PS4 as well, usually at the beginning/end of a round. Must've been the latest update. Paul was right when he said they'll break something.
Always do break something in the patches its the EA way
Back to this tonight now that Destiny beta is off for a few days, see if we can finish unlocking the guns.
Theirs a huge list, sound is all over the place, and still not fixed from day one.
The actual FX are terrible.
Hit detection is broken, but we know now that it cant be fixed without a proper new engine made as its a built in problem. Just look at the state of the "head shot" insta kills, doesn't matter what you are hit at at range, people are awarded head shots randomly.
Various maps ruined by sticking in massively over power jets and Mobile AA guns able to take out anything in the air no problem, oh, put point those guns at a person running on the ground, and it take a ridiculous amount of rounds to kill them.
Thats just some as I cant be bothered to write out the whole list, never-mind how much of a disaster that can never be forgotten from the get go.
Last BF game purchase from me till something serious is done about it.
One persons opinion of broken is different from the others.
This game is perfectly fine for me, it WAS broken by DICE earlier on in the Beta stages, you know the full priced beta less than a month after the official release date. But they've fixed up a lot of those problems now.

That's not broken that's just you not liking the game.
He's got some valid points but there more just annoyances with the game than it actually being broken.
I have a MASSIVE problem with the amount of bullets it takes to kill somebody using a vehicle mounted gun. Anybody that's played with me will have heard me raging about it.
Fair enough, but they have been complained about since day one, not a thing done about them, ill happily play away on BF4 till im bored of it totally, but thats it for the series unless something serious is done about it.
Any yes 50cal guns on the buggies and all the vehicles barley kill anyone, or ANY of the mounted Miniguns.
But hey, heres the weakest gun in the game killing you at range with a "headshot" which is only covering for the insta death kills they cant fix.
I dont see why EA DiCE should be given ANY kind of gratitude for this game, or be shown any kind of future support.

It's been like that in every BF game and it's in the interests of balance.
But it's not balanced at all. It should not take more bullets to kill with a vehicle mounted gun than it does with a handheld weapon. It's ridiculous.
On another note Battlelog was broken for me tonight. 2 friends online and I didn't have the option to join them which is usually done by pressing Triangle. I hope it's just a temporary problem for me.
It's noticeably worse in this one though. Even on Hardcore, mounted weapons on vehicles are rather ineffective. The miniguns on the blackhawks are especially hilarious, spitting out thousands of rounds with none of them seemingly doing a damn thing.
Yep I got your party invite but my battle log wouldn't load either. It doesn't list my friend's on the server list in the game ever. Sometimes, if I click your name on the PS dash, and look at your recent activity, if it says you are playing BF4 it might let me join your server there. Doesn't always work though. Annoying because I was playing like a boss yesterday.

I had that issue where it doesn't show friends servers. After months of that, it now shows 1 server. But if I have friends in 4 different ones, It will just shows 1 of them.
Then you try to do it via battlelog, which doesn't work 30% of the time. Then you can do it via Friends list - and even that has errors quite often. At least 5-6 times since launch my friends list doesn't load - and it's not like I play that often.
I only bought a used 360 for BF3 with my mates and never once had an issue with Live in 12 months of playing 3-5 times per week.
Mind you, been playing Destiny on PSn and it's been perfect and that's just a Beta. So a lot of the issues are BF4 related > PSN. But I really hope PSN is improved soon. Very few updates so far - I think they just have 1 guy employed for 4 hours a month or something at the rate they are updating it.

Usually if you just leave it for a few seconds on that message, it'll load anyway.
I don't think it's a PSN issue. I think it's just another thing that DICE have messed up. I've played quite a few MP games on the PS4 - KZ, COD and Destiny to name 3 - and I've never had problems joining people.
You forget you're usually in some form of armored vehicle and therefore have a luxury of protection afforded to you.
Tanks and IFVs would just be too op if they not only had armor taking at least 2 or more RPGs to take down, a primary turret with at least 2 different shell types, and also a secondary gunner with a 360 degree field of view who can one or two shot you.
Its the infantrymans only chance to sneak up behind, push through the secondary gunner fire and try and get C4 on the thing.
The only place this doesn't really work is in the little DPV buggy things. But nobody seriously uses them as you're just too exposed anyway.
have you played the game this year ? the miniguns in the transport chopper got a massive buff
