[ALL] Battlefield 4

Does that have anything to do with the random buttons that have no apparent function that people have been finding?

Yes, but no one can agree on exactly how it triggers the roar though. Some say you have to do the levolution event first, others that you have to press the buttons at the same time.

There's still a debate going on about whether this is the easter egg that the one developer talked about during the interview.

If it is that's pretty lame.

A PC patch was released today that's supposed to minimize trades (i.e. simultaneously killing the person who killed you), other crash fixes, a SUAV nerf, and fixes for revive glitches (although this one reportedly introduces another bug if you accept the revive too fast). So expect some these on PS4 and Xbone soon.

On the easter egg front, someone digging through the game files claims that there is a way to call down an orbital strike to destroy the hotel on Hainan Resort. That would be pretty crazy if true.

I think someone else found some Yeti sound files too that belong to Guilmon Railway.

Might of been jackfrags.

China Rising maps are available to non premium people today. They are awesome maps, wish I could find more servers of people playing on them.

It always pisses me off that I get into a server that I like finally only to realize it is a hardcore server :cmon:

I'm not into hiding in a bush and picking off PTFO's with a sniper rifle.

I was pretty stoked to go 16-2 in a round, the best I have done in a BF4 game as far as k/d ratio goes (I still played the objective if you are wondering)

Then I see the final scoreboard and see that that scumbag ScumbagWally went 46-4 and was all around badass in every single match we played.

Turns out he is a competitive BF3/BF4 player.

So I don't feel so bad now that I went 0-4 against him on dawnbreaker

Xbox One patch rolling out today..

We’ve rolled out a new Xbox One game update and will continue to make improvements based on your feedback. The update includes fixes with the aim to increase the general stability of the game, and eliminates bugs that you may have experienced.

Dec 19 Xbox One Game Update Notes
-Reduced the probability of the “Kill trade” issue (see below for details).
-Fixed a common crash that could occur during gameplay.
-Fixed an issue that could corrupt save files in the single player campaign.
-Fix for the game mode specific ribbons being counted twice in the multiplayer progression.
-Fix for a graphical glitch that could appear on terrain.
-Fix for the SUAV (introduced in the China Rising expansion pack) not exploding when hitting enemy soldiers. While these indeed should be deadly, they were never designed for “roadkilling” opponents.
-Fix for an issue where 4x the damage from a vehicle's minigun would be applied to the chest when a player had the Defense specialization equipped.
-Servers that friends are playing on now have a higher priority in the server list.
-Server Browser is no longer showing empty or full servers by default.
-Balancing jet handling across all stealth and attack jet classes.
-Fixed a bug in Defuse mode where defenders could win a round by killing all the attackers without disarming the bomb. If the attackers arm the bomb, the defenders need to disarm it to win, even if they have killed all the attackers.
-Fix for a Defuse bug where none of the teams would win a round by letting the timer run out.
-Fix for players getting stuck in the revive screen.
-Fix for players getting stuck in the kill camera after being revived. Note that you might see a graphical bug on-screen after being revived when accepting a revive within 1 second. This graphical bug will be removed in the next patch.
-Fixed the instance where players suddenly would transition into Spectator Mode while playing the Defuse game mode.
-Fix for the death camera/screen being displayed too early.
-Raised the first-person camera slightly for walking in crouch to more accurately reflect the actual position of the character.
-Fixed an issue with the party chat app not working.
-Fixed an issue in the in-game Battlelog where non-ASCII characters would display incorrectly.
-Fixed an issue when maps were not loading properly while player didn’t have the game in full screen.

Kill trading issue
We’ve addressed the so-called “Kill trading”. This refers to when two players fire at each other and, seemingly, both die at the same time. The time window where a bullet could cause damage from an already dead player is now calculated as intended, decreasing the time frame when players with high latency could get a kill, even though they should be dead according to the server. This should reduce the probability of kill trading.

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

I have traded a lot of kills so that will be nice to see changed. I would still like to know when I get headshotted so I know whether or not to scream BS when I instantly die after emptying half a clip on someone.

And it seems they fixed the server browser...kinda?

 

[Nucking Futs]

Didn't know this until a couple days ago. Lolz..

A quick tip for all console players. You know how you can hold the start button and the scoreboard pops up for as long as you're holding it? Well there's now the option to hit RB and flip the scoreboard to the whole-map overlay. This toggle is persistent throughout a round, so if you want to see the scoreboard again you'll need to LB back. Top tip: also works in hardcore modes.

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

Felt good to shoot someone's RPG out of the air as the gunner in a tank (by accident), but unfortunately Xbox record that doesn't work anymore on BF4.

Xbox Snap DVR works, but that only starts recording when you say it

 

[ThomasTomasz]

Just got this for XB1, should be online tonight and tomorrow night. I stayed under a rock on the PS3/360 games so this will be my first exposure to BF4.

Badass BF wallpaper.

We were getting our asses kicked in Conquest on Lancang Dam and I decided that I was going to flank the other team on a jet ski and go across the map under the radar to take A and hopefully get us back on track.

All was going well, the tanks I was going by didn't notice, then it happened. A squadmate spawned on my jet ski and started firing his gun randomly at people on shore, 500+ meters away. Not 10 seconds later, we were taken out by a guided missile. :smh:

that used to happen to me alot on bf3 when playing on Kharg Island. I'd take the boat back behind bravo on my way to delta and some idiot spawning on me always shooting at the jets flying above us that he has no chance of hitting anyways giving away our position.

What made it funnier was that the original post was on the official forums

Apparently the China Rising DLC didn't carry over from my PS3 version to my PS4.

Does anyone else hate Siege of Shanghai as much as I do? I can't quite pinpoint what it is about it but I just don't like it.

Also, 64 player Operation Locker and Operation Metro is just too much for me. I just medkit/revive whore until the match is over.

I still love this game though. I can't get myself to move on from the SAR-21+Suppressor. It feels like a marshmallow gun at long ranges, but still great.
