Yes because you're not premium. Launch folks get it for free... 2 weeks from now.

Are you amazed that DICE kept a promise? They said that was the case when the announced premium.

I went to the in-game store menu and was able to select a big China Rising tab. It said I already have the item, and asked if I would like to install it.

Darn, I don't have that option. It knows that I have premium, too.

My in game store also only has premium, and when I find the CR servers on the browser and click them, it brings up the buy premium page again. Oh DICE, how can one company fail on so many levels so consistently.

Got it to work. Just go to the ps4 dashboard, and look at the bf4 related items and it's right there for me.

The first time I played with goons I listened to concrete and yoss talk poo poo about my username for about five minutes, then it was all cool. Concrete settled for calling me maloy and we went on our merry way. We may be a bit rough, but just start talking and you'll fit in pretty quick. Take nothing personally.

"Nerfs" it? That sounds like it's intentional that that little r/c airplane can lethally plow through multiple people without even slowing down.

Doesn't work for me. It shows two addons but both of them are Premium, then when I click on addons and it takes me to the next screen, it just shows a single premium option which takes me to the premium store download page.

No I mean, am I confused about the term "nerfed"? Looking at that video, it looks like a bug, bugs get fixed, not merely reduced in power...right?

edit: I mean, a bug that the plane doesn't crash after hitting the first person, and only do moderate damage to them.

The problem is that even Dice barely understands how the weapons they implement are going to be used, or how strong/weak they actually are. I have a feeling that being able to kill dudes like in that video was probably intentional on Dice's part, just as it was with the MAV in BF3, but as with the MAV enough people complained and they eventually removed it's ability to kill. The same thing will probably happen with this; which is why I would say enjoy it now while you can.

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.
So I was looking at my favoritest stat, ribbons per game and thought to myself, "I've played a lot of short matches."

This is lowering my internet numbers and I demand a ribbons per minute stat so I can feel better about being beaten by 15 ribbons per match by some sperg

:goonsay:


I'm really torn. I love the video and that the dude is mowing down "pussy snipers," but he really sounds like pewdiepie and that makes me hate him please help :ohdear:

Well I just played a round of Air Superiority. For some reason that mode starts at 100 tickets which lasted 2 minutes and 40 seconds. There were a total of 4 kills across both teams.

Haven't tried actual conquest yet.

Prepare for the worst.

It can't be that bad. I'm a few missions in and can already empathize with the characters and set-pieces better than BF3. The only bad thing I encountered so far is in the middle of a firefight on a boat, I went prone to get out of the way of gunfire, killed an enemy with a grenade, and the game proceeded to completely crash. Like a god drat CTD crash you would expect from a PC game. Thankfully, it wasn't far away from a checkpoint and let me resume from there.

Hearing Pac and Irish talk about fortune cookies and various poo poo while I searched the hotel in Shanghai was a nice touch too.

God I wish I could get in a game that didn't just crash 5 minutes in. I just had 3 in a row after playing most of the morning perfectly fine.

I'm wasting my 200% XP booster because I can't get in a game that lasts.

I'm on PS4 with premium and attempting to join a CR server just shows me the prompt to buy premium :saddowns:

Edit: Apparently you have to manually go into the PSN store and download the expansion. And it's almost 4 gigs and will take me about another hour to download :negative:
