How much heavier is Battlefield 4 versus 3? I imagine there's all sorts of new fancy dandy improvements that become more demanding, but my computer's performance between BF3 and BF4 at the same settings is kind of night and day.

Christ, I had totally forgotten about that. Bear with me, i've been drinking a bit this evening. Yeah, I have a 125 GB SSD; but when I install the game via Origin, it doesn't give me the option to install it to said SSD; it just goes from downloading the game to installing it automatically on my C: drive.

There's a setting in Origin that lets you set where you want your game installs to go. I don't think you can do it on a per-game basis though.

So do counter-knifes only occur if attacked from the front?

I countered a knife attack last round and felt awesome.

And then I got countered myself. :downs:

I think my worst experience with a map so far has been Flood Zone on Obliteration.

I don't know why the bomb keeps teleporting off the map. Maybe it's falling into the water? Whatever, it's disorienting as all gently caress.

Bought some slim jims for battle packs, won Need for Speed Rivals instead. Hooray? I don't really play racing games so I don't know if it's any good.

Anyways, can knives only be found in gold battlepacks?

What's the Offensive/Defensive/whatever perks that you have with each class? How do you fill up the bar to activate them?

Do I need to sit through the credits to get my end of campaign medals? My game crashed during the credits roll and I didn't get my p90 :mad:

Just played my first round on Flood Zone and jesus christ the water in this game...

Traversing water made a whole lot more sense to me once I found out I could dive by hitting the crouch or prone toggle. That and you can use a pistol while swimming. And C4 I think?


Also any goons on budget builds able to get this game running smoothly framerate-wise?

Played a while on a hardcore pistols only server. The REX is super bad, even in hardcore it takes like 2 shots to kill up close most of the time.

Gonna grind that poo poo out to be done with it forever :suicide:

I hope the .44 Magnum is better. I swore by that gun in Battlefield 3.

I'm bad at making videos... but battlefield is always more fun when you aren't playing seriously.

Is the EOD bot easier to control than in BF3? I remember controlling BF3's EOD bot was like trying to control an epileptic cat.

So... on a scale of 1 to 10, how buggy is this game at this stage? (10 being how buggy it was the first few months of launch, and 1 being uhh... Battlefield 3's current state.)


Final Stand looks like a bunch of fun but the Premium package is still a pretty penny.
