The 3 point CQ map isnt big enuff for boats i guess, CQ large or CQ dom prob get em on that map.

Found boats, go on CQ large and knockover the scyscraper, then they spawn to the team holding the point. Also jetskis from spawn :)

Starting to love it - snipers are a bit iffy until you get used to the drop and the zooms but after that they are fine and fun :)

Had 5 mins last night. Seems to be limited destruction on a lot of objects. Just bullet holes on some walls nothing breaking off. Was in tank shooting some walls on buildings in the play area and shots went straight through a lot of them. I was on empty servers so thought that maybe something to do with it so went underground and collapsed the road so thinking maybe not PDT_Armataz_01_05

Looks nice will have a better idea when I am in an active game. Just walking around has a different feel to BF3. Not sure how PDT_Armataz_01_11

as a tank driver I can tell you, the ammo changes will separate the noob tank spammers from the actuall tank drivers :D

I have played a game with other people YAY. Enjoyed it, had decent FPS and no lag. Destruction is working more how it should where it wasn't before(when I played on an empty server).

Tried it last night for a short period but everything my end was very white, not really much color or texture. I presume this is just my end but all setting were turned up for graphics or is it just the beta.
Did not experience any real lag.
But really cant be doing with having to shoot people 500 times why is softcore the standard PDT_Armataz_01_19

when your shot your shot especially with a tank............

i dunno if its just cus its new but the last time me mike milos and brandon were playing i felt we had much more of a team dynamic thing going on.

apart from milos being a douche ofc :D

Last 3 games I played were lag free-ish. Was in a tank shot someone 3 times and didn't die despite being direct, suspecting may have been lag related, I hope.

Be good to get rid of gheycore and get back to hardcore.

when in a tank never use the main gun on infy, the splash damage is next to nothing, they are saving that for the High Explosive shells in the full game :)

the gunner machine guns on tanks defo felt better and more useful vs infantry. The range also seemed improved even thou the bullets looked to be more innacurate

#31: Re: bf4 first impressions Author: TillBGoode, Location: Ashford

Posted: Fri Oct 04, 2013 12:38 pm

Yeah, thought direct hits would be enough PDT_Armataz_01_11

Gunner works well.

Going one on one against a tank with an RPG is now a winnable fight which is good, like back in BF2.

The 50 cal on the jeeps where a disapointement for me though, overheat in seconds so you need to burst fire them just to get one kill on gaycore. Prob hit hard on hardcore but cant be used to supress someone in cover like BF3 humvees for example.

Yesterday i would have agreed with you crilly, i tried burst firing it today. with the burstfire you can decimate a choke point with ease PDT_Armataz_01_11

as wel as sniping the rooftop moneys

Took some time to get all the graphics settings working good for me fairly consistent fps count now tho. As latrortal said seems to work good with a squad so far, something to do with the extra amount of players allowed in each maybe?

definitely polished BF3.. still needs much more work before release.. quite buggy ATM but feels much more weighty than BF3.. ;) I lyke.. yiss.. PDT_Armataz_01_34

Noticed today it seems that if you shot someone and take there health below a certain point and someone finishes them off you get a kill. It comes up on screen as assist counts as kill, also seen squad assist counts as kill.

So whats the BF4 plan for us PDT_Armataz_01_03

Due to the short GSP list will we be looking at getting a server somewhere else or waiting to see if the list is expanded.

Out of all those on the list are any even remotely customer orientated or are they all just EA yes men who dont really give a damn about the people that pay for there so called service.

Are any of these GSP's even allowing people to admin there own servers or is it EA rules and nothing else PDT_Armataz_01_15

Yes men = Yes
Admin = not sure still ATM PDT_Armataz_01_09

Its going to be a big might pain in the ass if we move from Gaming deluxe though
possible worth waiting to see if the list is expanded, there certainly has been talk of it.

I fear there will be a massive filtration from the BF3 servers to people hitting up BF4.. Feel as though BF3 will die off like BC2

Depends on your definition of death i spose, there are 50 odd full bc2 servers right now 7.30 am :S

Anyone noticed if you get your emblem on guns? Watched levelcaps vids and noticed he had his logo on some of the guns where the US/China flag is on the guns ive used.
It gets slapped on once you apply a camo? Using a grey logo so that might be why i missed mine or has lvlcap just slapped his logo on in the editing process?

#49: Re: bf4 first impressions Author: Milos,

You put a large element behind the emblem and color it black so then the camo doesnt really affect it

Well I have tried it again tonight and I must say what a piece of shit both teams fly to nearest tall building and rocket spam the spawn normal poor map design again from dice. Its only beeen out a few days on beta and already everyone is focused on how to exploit and ruin it for all utterly shit first impressions.
If this is the map to impress Im afraid its utter shit, direct line of site to each others choppers is just a rocket fest of retards.
And who the fuck heard of rpgs that lock on to aircraft if rocket spam in these games was bad enough now every retard who starts the game can lock on, whats the point of unlocking a stinger ffs PDT_Armataz_01_19

Well its a beta, its not the best map, nor the newest build. This build is from a month ago or so. And the stingers fly much faster thwn the rpg for one. And imho these beta players are much more capable thwn your regular bf3 dipshit so far PDT_Armataz_01_11

Edit: and after playing gulf of oman for 2 years im not suprised by any bunny's taxi'ing themselves around XD

aye.. well.. considering it is beta EA/DICE may patch something/nurf the stinger shit.. I remember playing metro on BF3 beta and that was just an RPGfest but seems to have calmed down a lot.. I suspect the same will happen here.. but as first impressions go that aint the best to make =/

Teamwork pays of in bf4 because of the lower pace. Sticking with your squad actually works, which is more then i could ever say about bf3 :P

Because it's not that rush pants PDT_Armataz_01_11

I am really enjoying it, I fear though when it is out and all game modes are available conquest will die down and fecking rush take over.

Could be the BF2 sequel I have been waiting for but it won't happen with all the other game modes around PDT_Armataz_01_02

As long as i breathe conquest will go without a fight PDT_Armataz_01_42

I don't really see conquest dying down, if anything its gonna get bigger. Plus the other game-modes are starting to leech elements from the original conquest concept, such as obliteration. If anything conquest is gonna be thriving in one way or another :)
