Tips: If you are squad leader, use the Spot button to mark points and your squad will get bonus points for capturing/defending them. I don't know why this is so hard. If I'm playing Domination, I just mark whichever point turns into the biggest killfest (B on Locker) and get an extra 2500-3000 points from my squad mates killing people in the general area. If you are playing Domination, do not try to snipe or use a mortar or do anything else retarded. I just played a match where 3 of my other squad members were using sniper rifles and 1 of them was trying to use the mortar. We were playing Zavod. 2/3 of the points are inside buildings.

I had an amazing jihad dirt bike last night where I blew up a fully loaded transport chopper touching down at one of the points on Silk Road. It was like a point pinata. Of course the PS4 saved the wrong 15 minutes when I hit the Share button.

DiverTwig posted:Hey Beelz quick question. Is there a way to see which goons tags we've taken? I remember for bf3 we could hover over the tags number and it would show us the goons we've taken. I know I got BackupSnacks last night, and I'd also like a place to check to make sure Seedge still doesn't have mine. This has not yet been added to the API, but P-Stats have recently started tracking it for BF4. So you can check your tag collection there. The API is still being built out, and as soon as this command is added I will incorporate it back into battlefieldgoons.com where I have the code hooks commented out and waiting. For reference, BF3 launched without any dogtag tracking by P-Stats, followed by their own tracking, followed by the API command. So this is inline with what I expected. These sorts of features are typically rolled out over time and not ready at launch. But yes, I too am excited about the return of the goon tags leaderboard, which gives you a consolation prize to try for if you get placed against the stack and can't switch sides because oh noes the teams would be too imbalanced.

Last night I installed the patch, played a match, it started to count up my experience points at the end and froze. I then laughed, rebooted my 360 and played for 2 hours with no issues. So so

Does anti-tank mines despawn when you die or can I throw out mines, die, change to repair tool and still have the mines I placed before?

It's really funny how much better the blowtorch is at killing tanks than rockets. I just haul rear end towards enemy vehicles and hold the button down now. After the third tank kill they started gunning for me specifically, I think.

I wish I had saved it, but I got two kills with one bullet last night when I was running around with the first sniper rifle with iron sights. Two dudes were crouched behind a LAV I wanted to C4 (they were repairing it), so I shot one point blank range in the head with the CLS, and it killed his buddy right next to him. Then I C4'd the LAV. My deterrent from saving it: the fact that it was 5am and well you know I was supposed to be going to work "early" today. Didn't want random bf4 videos showing up on my Facebook feed at ungodly hours.

If you hit the share button it will save the last 15 minutes of gameplay. Then you can go back later to trim and post it. I was surprised how easy it was to do the first time.

I had issues with BF4 recording before the latest patch, now the last 3 times I checked it was actually the last 15 minutes. Also, if you think you may want a recording, you can start one manually at any time.

I assume they're saved until you delete them. On the PS4 menu if you go to your profile there's an icon for Captures. Everything you do with the share button will be saved there. One thing I don't like is of you want to save a video clip it still saves a screenshot just from pressing the button. Never had any recording issues on PS4, but I haven't played around with it much so far.

There is something that triggers them despawning, be it time or how often you die, but I don't know what it is.

Afaik, it's putting down more mines than you are allowed have in your inventory. I.e. If you can have 4 antitank mines and you put them down, they will persist until you put down a fifth, someone blows them up, or they get run over by a tank.

I thought you could only have 3 AT mines out at any time, no matter what. I've definitely spawned with 6 mines (using the anti-tank engineer class) and can still only put 3 down at a time. When I put down the 4th, the 1st disappears. Anyone have a concrete answer?

Isn't there a perk that ups your max mines allowed? The anti tank one.

I'm pretty sure that with the antitank perk you can have 12 mines deployed - 6x AT, 6x SLAM. Sometimes being a massive shitlord is fun.

I think that increases the max amount of mines you can carry, not deploy at once. I could be wrong though. I know for a fact that I spawned with 6 AT mines one time and when I went to deploy the 4th, the 1st disappeared.

Thought this was cool enough to make my first video gaming upload. I sneak up on a manned tank and plant mines in front of it, lure the driver into going over them, then promptly down a chopper with an RPG from long range.  https://skydrive.live.com/?mkt=en-US#cid=60BC5095134FFD51&id=60BC5095134FFD51%21106&v=3 RCarr fucked around with this message at 22:26 on Dec 18, 2013 |
