 This BF4 thread is for console players (of either hardware generation). If you are a master race mouse clicker, you probably want to be in the PC thread instead. Feel free to post in either, but please leave platform supremacy flamewar bullshit out of both. Yes, we know that we are playing inferior versions. Some people spend all day at work on a PC and just prefer to unwind with couches and TVs instead. You are also welcome to use our stats site (see first FAQ below), which has been retooled to accept PC players as a tribute to our dearly departed BF3 brothers who have since fled to your ranks. You probably already know that this is a game about shooting mans, etc. So we’ll skip that level of information and use this OP to answer those questions which continue to be axed frequently.  Custom console servers are finally available. The list of goon-controlled servers can be found in the 2P.  How do I find goons to play with slash look at some Internet numbers?Please don’t make a whole post that just says, “I’m playing now if anyone is interested.” We have a system here for organizing goon games. First, register yourself at battlefieldgoons.com. Your stats will be pulled from the API at the excellent Dominik Herbst site, bf4stats.com, and added to our goon database. Next, go back to the front page and set the platform filter to your console and the sort to either hours played or last seen. Send friend requests to some of the top dudes. The friends list size limits have been raised in both new consoles. This effectively eliminates the need for metatags, and so they have been retired. Apologies to any inconvenience caused to 360 players, but there are probably few enough of you that you can all just friend each other under the cap anyway. After you have friended everyone you can use the new Battlelog integration to join games. Theoretically you can also join the party chat, but those systems are hopefully being revised as they are fairly lousy right now on both new systems. Are there any Battlelog platoons for goons?Yes, apply within: Xboners | PS4ce | 360 Xbros Why aren’t my stats updating?Please see this note about stat updates while we are still in the early phase of the game’s life cycle. Hopefully this will be resolved by P-Stats soon! What counts as a “humiliation kill”?Why did I disappear off the site?What makes me an AK5C whore?(…and other stats site related questions)The answers to many stats site related FAQs change slightly from time to time so rather than try to maintain them here, I have answered them programmatically in the site documentation instead. Please check there before asking a question about the stats site in this thread.  How do my friends and I join a game together?You can’t!  No really, that is not presently possible. One of you will just have to find a server with some space and then bring everyone else in. There is some integration with Xbone parties (not sure about PS4; help here) that will prompt your dudes to join you. But it is basically a pain in the rear end right now. Here’s hoping for a fix.How do I gain access to all the guns and stuff?Ranking up no longer unlocks new weapons. Each class now has a bound weapon category, and then there are additional all kit categories unlocked through kit progression. The only way to get a new weapon in a given category is to score points (kills, assists) with another weapon in that category. This is painfully true of sidearms as well. Beyond this there are some more weapon unlocks bound to assignment completion (particularly the ones that come with DLC map packs). So far there aren’t any dumb Gun Club, promotional, or marketing tie-in unlocks for BF4. But unfortunately, you have to play the loving campaign this time. Campaign unlocks:
OK, I have them all; now which one’s the best?The weapon balance overall feels much better this time. So whichever weapon you’re holding, play its role. LMGs are for suppression this time; for serious. Shotguns are for CQB, etc. If you have to know all the stats though, Symthic has you covered. They also have easy to understand pros and cons for attachments for those confused by the astounding array of gun parts in those shiny gold suitcases. You could also check out our kill breakdown to get a sense of the goon consensus (just bear in mind that some weapons are less used because not everyone has them unlocked). Don’t get too attached to those top few kill getters though. Invariably anything that starts getting a lot of attention will be nerfed. I keep losing firefights; is it because I have the wrong gun?It’s probably because you thought you’d start your MLG pro training and disabled auto aim in the options. Turn that back on. It’s hella broken right now. Everyone else is using it, and you’re only hurting yourself if you don’t use it to keep up. Maybe DICE will “tone it down” a bit in a future patch so that you can go back to being a pro dual analog stick aim king. (Hint: go play on PC) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPOzbJxkEpI That didn’t help, what else should I do?While analog stick aiming will never rival mouse aiming, there are still ways to improve its precision. Many players you are facing have taken to cranking their sensitivity up as high as they can stand it to allow for quicker aim movements. To help control this you can equip your right thumbstick with a commercial extender. By increasing the length of the “lever” you can translate larger thumb movements into smaller input variations and tame the targeting reticle on higher sensitivity settings. If you’d like to try this but are unsure which product to acquire, this OP recommends the FPS Ultra by KontrolFreek. What does Premium get me?Most importantly you get all the expansion packs for less than what you would pay individually, and you get them all early. If you know up front you will be in for all the maps, go ahead and get Premium. In addition to that you get one gold battlepack each month, double the emblem layers, and access to exclusive customization items. The only exclusive “weapons” you get with Premium are melee skins like the carbon fiber knife, which behave the same as all the other knives but are tracked separately on the stats server this time around. What’s a battlepack?Since you no longer unlock anything for ranking up, they came up with a new rank up reward. It’s essentially a random loot pull that containing mostly cosmetic customization pieces. The only good thing you can really get out of them is an XP boost. These stack with double XP weekends and can really help in unlocking your way past the crummy starting weapons. Until rank 30 you will find only 25% and 50% boosts, but after that you can pull 100% and even 200% boosts. How do I use an XP boost?After you find an XP boost in a battlepack you then have to activate it before gaining the multiplier, and in true fashion, this is somewhat hidden. Once you are in a multiplayer match, hit the “start” button (or whatever dumbass thing it’s called now) to bring up the options menu. There is no menu item here for using boosts, but if you look under all the menu items there is a context-sensitive button for using boosts ((X) button on Xbone). You can then choose which of your boosts you want to activate or see how much time you have left on it. Each boost lasts an hour and starting a new one before the previous one finishes will trash the balance of the first one (i.e. they don’t stack).How do field upgrades work?This system represents a bit of a departure from the squad specialization system piloted in BF3. First of all, you choose the perks that you want for you without worrying about what the other members of your squad have selected. No need to worry about wastefully doubling up this time around. Each set you can choose contains four ordered perks. As your squad works together to earn squad points by doing things like following orders or healing/resupplying squad members (note: not just team members) a bar will fill above your list of squad members. As it passes each hash mark you earn another of the perks in your chosen set. Your Commander can also bump you up a whole notch with his “promote squad” action. If your squad is wiped, your entire field upgrade score is lost (bar is emptied) and must be built back up from scratch. This supposedly will incent players not to lone wolf it in private squads or run away from their squad members, but pubbies go’n do what pubbies go’n do. I never played BF2 on PC; what’s this Commander mode all about?Commander mode is a way to grind battlepacks when you have a tablet but not a console at hand, such as when you are pooping at work. It is piss easy to rack up a ton of points as a commander, but they only count toward your general rank in terms of unlocks (so just ’packs). Oh, and also you can actually help your team’s winning chance substantially, particularly if the enemy team has no commander. In this mode, you can call in UAVs and EMP UAVs (shield your team from being spotted) near constantly. Less frequently you can promote squads as described above, drop supply crates on enemy wookiees, give a squad the brief ability to quick respawn, or call in a vehicle from heaven near a stranded friendly in the woods. And depending on the map and which points your team currently controls you can also do stuff like scan for enemy vehicles, call in an AI-piloted AC-130 gunship, or launch cruise missile strikes that take at least a hundred years to hit the ground.  Cruise missiles do have their uses! Should I follow the Commander’s orders then?Yes, actually. But unfortunately you have to actually bring up the commorose and choose “Accept Order”. Simply relaying the orders to your squad by looking at the point you were ordered to take and tapping spot won’t count as accepting the orders. Why? Why because , of course! Haven’t you been paying attention? It’s always because DICE. As Duck says, deadwing posted:Followed squad orders also pump the field upgrade bar up extremely fast. Attack/defend orders are so much more important in this game than they were in BC2/BF3. Always be placing squad orders. Always.  What does this “skill” rating mean, and how is it calculated?I don’t loving know anymore. They appear to have changed this substantially from BF3 to BF4. If anyone finds any official explanation of BF4 skill ratings, please PM me. Where in the menus do I set my awesome clan tag?You can’t find it in the in-game menus because it’s still not in there. The only way to set a clan tag (i.e. make [LLJK] appear before your name on the scoreboard) is through EA’s Battlelog site. Where in the menus do I set this new emblem thing? Can you make one for me?This is also accomplished exclusively through Battlelog. You can copy others’ emblems there as well, if they are on your friends list. Or you can use a browser hack to get them from the goon emblem archive (instructions at the top on how to capture or set from the browser console), kindly provided by Alehks from the PC crew. There is a public repository at emblemsbf.com that might have what you want as well. By the way, you need Premium to use most of those, as it gives you 40 layers to work with (as opposed to only 20 for poors).  Why not recreate your favorite SA smilie or logo from some other franchise? Where in the menus do I set my loadout when I’m not in a game?Oh yeah, you can’t do that either. I know, right? DICE. The good news on this is that you can set your loadout at any time using either the Battlelog website or the phone/tablet apps for iOS/Android, which are surprisingly decent. If you really want to use the in-game menus to set them, you can load up the test range map. You can also use the tablet app to open battlepacks mid-game (but not the phone versions of the app… because DICE). Where in the menus can I find the scoreboard while in a game?You actually can do this, and without even going into a menu! Just hold down the, um… I’m just going to keep calling it the start button… for a few seconds. This will pop up the scoreboard as a transparent overlay for as long as you continue to hold the start button. If I’m new to this franchise, what tips and strats would you suggest I keep in mind?
 …or go back to TDM. What is my objective?There are lots of modes now. Some old favorites and some new ones. They basically work like this:
I hear vehicles are important in Battlefield; how do I play them effectively?
Where can I go to practice flying a helo/jet?There’s a sandbox this time!  On the same menu as Quick Match and Server Browser, there is an option called Test Range that will let you practice flying. Good on DICE for finally addressing this. Please learn the basics on your own before handicapping your team in a real match.How do spawn beacons work? Or, Why did I spawn facing a wall and get shot in the back?The recon class has the ability to place down a spawn bacon in the field (after unlocking and equipping the item). Once it is placed, the recon’s squadmates can spawn on the bacon instead of its owner as long as it is in play. If the recon respawns on his own bacon it will be destroyed (he can throw another one down in the same location, of course). It can also be destroyed by enemy fire or explosives. The most important and overlooked factor to note here is that players will spawn facing the same direction the recon was facing when the bacon was placed. So be courteous and back into a quiet corner before dropping your sizzling, crispy box of radio goodness. Holy poo poo something amazing just happened; what should I do‽If you’re an Xboner, quickly shout, “XBOX, RECORD THAT!” at your TV, then go into the Upload Studio app, trim it, push it to SkyDrive™ and share the link here. If you’re on the PS Fource, then just calmly depress your “Share” button and retrieve your clip from Facebook. One note about this: it seems like pressing the button immediately after the awesome thing will leave you with a video clip that precedes it. So wait a bit before pressing Share. Presumably this will be patched in the PS4 OS at some point, but that appears to be the current state of things. And if you’re on a lastgen console, then I hope you were doing whatever Lazyfire used to do in BF3 to capture his gameplay.  Preserve examples of squadmates helping squadmates for posterity. Which right dogtag should I equip?After reading a few hundred pages in this thread, it will become clear to you that it is this one:  Speaking of dogtags, how do I avoid getting my own knife turned into my gut when trying to take someone’s tags?Battlefield 4 introduces two new dogtag related mechanics to the franchise that happen to invalidate each other entirely. You can steal tags by knifing from the front now! But you should never, ever attempt to do this. Pressing the melee button while facing an enemy will give him a QTE prompt to counter-knife you, and he’d have to be an imbecile to fail it. If you go in for a tactical hug and the dude turns at the last second to face you, expect to die. What should I do about these NAT issues on my Xbone (i.e. showing as anything but Open)?Try following besny’s “Open NAT made easy” guide first. That’s it? You didn’t answer my question?Holy poo poo, you actually read an OP in Games? Are you new here? Please ask your question in the thread. We will snarkily answer it, and if you aren’t the first person to ask, then they will bug me to add it here. But it won’t help because you are the only person who will ever check here for the answer to it before asking it in the thread. Beelzebozo fucked around with this message at 16:01 on Jun 30, 2014 |

Shapur posted:Great OP! Ah, good point. I That google doc has a cell directly to the right of the upload one that tells you how to download. Maybe your browser window wasn't wide enough to see it, but the first two cells contain both of the instruction sets you'd need to exchange emblems. And it's on the web so it works the same for players of all platforms. bringer posted:You get tons of points for killing people as HVT though! It's actually kind of fun because you can back your LAV up into a secured area and the HVT spot ensures you'll have a steady stream of scrubs wandering into your field of fire. That's a solid point. I guess if you're as good as bringer then being marked as HVT actually probably rulez with a zed. But I'm nowhere near ever being as good as bringer even when I dream about being awesome at Battlefield. Beelzebozo fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Dec 2, 2013 |

Shapur posted:That'd odd, when I look at that cell it's sized the same as the one with the upload directions however it's completely empty except for a 0 in the top right corner. Oh weird, well maybe the owner is loving with it. Basically just hover the emblem you want to see its javascript code in a note and then hilight it all and copy it to your clipboard. Next go over to Battlelog™ and click "customize emblem" and start a blank emblem. Then bring up your browser's console (e.g. Cmd+Opt+J for Chrome on OS X (you're on your own if that's not you)) and hit paste and Enter. That should hack all the little bits into place. Then you click Save and Use.

RCarr posted:I was told stats save every few minutes or so. So if the game crashes it shouldn't be skewing your stats (much). I haven't confirmed this for BF4, but in BC2 and BF3, stats were written back to the master server whenever your console was sitting on the respawn timer map screen. So in a crash you only lost what you had done on the current life. This is probably the case in BF4. Also, I've fixed the PS4 share button thing in the OP. I don't have a PS4 so I'm counting on you guys to help me out with the platform specific stuff on that side of the fence. Thanks.

Enter Char posted:Knifing people from the front lets them counter you. It's really easy to do, so never knife from the front if you can avoid it. Yeah, I'll throw that in the OP. Also, got this via PM but want to address it publicly before anyone else notices and asks: quote:Snackpack Backpack wrote on Dec 3, 2013 1:53 PM: In previous versions of the API there has been an explicit "update this dude" command that I had to execute before the "pull this dude" command. The updates were, in fact, the thing that were limited to 20 an hour. Pulls were free. So far this command does not exist in the BF4 version of the stats API. I initially assumed this to mean that all pulls would come with a free update and updates were no longer necessary. It has since become clear that this is not the case. If nobody ever looks at your record on bf4stats.com then I just keep pulling your same stale stats over and over. So, for now, click on your soldier name in the leaderboard every once in a while if you want your poo poo updated. And hopefully they reintroduce the update command down the road. The API is stated to be still in flux with more commands coming, so it feels safe to assume this is one of them. Here's hoping, anyway.

Hoekie posted:Tired of playin against pubbies. DOES NOT FOLLOW DIRECTIONS! DOES NOT READ OP! Congrats on being the first such jackass of this new thread.  Samurai Sanders posted:- does using the shotgun mod for your assault rifle get you shotgun experience or assault rifle experience? Shotgun experience. To confirm to yourself, play an entire round with only an AR / M26 MASS combo, making sure to get at least one kill or assist with the attachment, and then don't mash skip on the XP count-up on the post-game screen. You'll see shotgun XP. Tuna, the Muse posted:Do I have to pick up the mortar again or manually reload it when I run out of ammo? It slowly regenerates ammo like an MBT cannon. (The mortar is actually surfaced as an emplaced vehicle, rather than an equipment, in this game's stats tracking.)

Trivia posted:…BF3 is better… I never expected to see this particular sequence of characters for as long as I lived.Also I don't agree. BF3 was a bad game. I'm having a lot more fun with this one, bugs and all.

DominusDeus posted:I've crashed twice since the new update on the PS4... It specifically says in the patch notes that it does not address game stability, only the OHK bug. They explicitly state that a stability patch is coming next.

sba posted:I did the opposite, I signed up for battlegoons and never posted in the thread. More like an auto-generated form PM. Just trying to provide customer service, man. jmorelli posted:Does the battlelog battlescreen work on anyone's PC while playing on Xbone? whenever i click it in the bottom on the blue bar it just pops up a window w/ a promo to use a tablet. That only works on tablets for no reason at all.

nummy posted:Great OP Beelz! Thanks. (Thanks for the stats site too, you're awesome) Glad you appreciate it. nummy posted:Do you have to be friends on battlelog, or is friends on PS4/XBone sufficient? The Battlelog app has separate sections in the friends list for Battlelog/Origin friends and PS4/Xbone friends (if they've linked to their Battlelog) and then each of those broken down by online and offline. As was mentioned, you can use this to join a friend's server as Commander on the tablet, but you can't ensure placement on their team or switch teams (but they can switch to your team).
