Alright I picked it up for the $50 (Deluxe) ... Add me on Origin if you're going to be playing at all tomorrow. I'll be on most of the day playing. Origin name is same as Facepunch
What's Mantle, anyways?
I heard it's only gonna be for AMD.
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;43436555]I heard it's only gonna be for AMD.[/QUOTE] AMD have said they are opening it up for other manufacturers. However they probably won't use it or it won't work as well as it would on AMD hardware.

Interesting thing I've just found. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ol_6T2iTiwA&feature=youtu.be[/media] Oh and this happen to me and my brother, we somehow manage to get under the map [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVTw1LrFOuU&feature=youtu.be[/media]
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;43429039]Create a user.cfg in the BF4 root folder and put it there.[/QUOTE] Thank you!
[QUOTE=areolop;43432183]Whats your honest opinion on BF4? I kinda wanna buy it, but am really torn that it looks like a BF3 map pack with a few new weapons, etc.[/QUOTE] Good game. Unforgiveable launch, but most of the issues have been fixed other than the hit detection. Its everything BF3 had but better. If you liked BF3, buy it. If you didn't like BF3, it probably won't sway you.
[QUOTE=sa2fan;43422394]I just got my jet and scout chopper wrecked by someone with the machine gun on the RHIB.[/QUOTE] The chainguns on RHIBs and Transport Choppers are quite good at destroying aircraft if you have decent aim.
[QUOTE=Clavus;43447250]The chainguns on RHIBs and Transport Choppers are quite good at destroying aircraft if you have decent aim.[/QUOTE] Found out this one the hard way on Flood Zone the other day. Bombing around with the scout helo as usual when I go to duck behind a building to avoid AA and get [I][B]torn the fuck up[/B][/I] by a RHIB that was just watching that street.
[QUOTE=Clavus;43447250]The chainguns on RHIBs and Transport Choppers are quite good at destroying aircraft if you have decent aim.[/QUOTE] I wish they would've gone with MGs for choppers. Too bad it doesn't look modern. Because miniguns fuck up infantry with one hit, when in game it takes like 10.
I wish the transport vehicles would have some unlock like counter measurements or supporting stuff like laser painter.
Most of them have flares\smoke, they dont need anything else (well, may be painter for chopper is good, but still) they are transport, they arent created for fight.
I want a machine gun for my dirt bike that is like the best vehicle

So driver 332.21 WHQL is out now, bunch of people on battle log claim the game perform better with, ill give it a try.
Ever been on one of those teams that were pants on head retarded? Snipers on the hill near A in Hainan Resort. Killing off everyone that gets even close to it. Nobody tries to sneak behind them from base but me. Of course, there's more than one and they hid a beacon nearby (Full squad) so I lose instantly. Still, nobody tries to get them. I tell people they are there. Some people rush in, but they're still pants on head retarded so they all die instantly because they all stop moving and stay standing in the open, trying to find the snipers. Snipers are lying in the grass staying low. We lost the match with the other team having over half their tickets.
Been playing only as medic.. Found that the M416 or the M16A4 are my home. Also love playing the conquest at the jail map.
I don't understand "skill" anymore. I'm the #1 in the whole match... [img]http://i.imgur.com/prDEaet.jpg[/img] [url]http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/battlereport/show/1/420654454817392512/791975322/[/url]

There's a lot more to it based on team actions and shit too, but I don't think people have worked it out fully yet. It's mostly meaningless really. [editline]8th January 2014[/editline] Also fuck recons who leave their spawn becons at the first base on Rush. I have no idea what that guy was even doing that far back on Tehran Highway as you can't shoot fuckers in the last few bases from there.
[url]http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2955065220637251531/[/url] It still doesnt make sense
[del]I was under the impression it's the same as ELO from Bad Company 2. It goes up a lot if you kill people who have a higher skill rating than you. It goes up slightly if you kill other people. It goes down when you die, and it goes down a lot when you get killed by people with lower skill than you. That's really all there is to it. It's highly dependent on who you are killing and not much else. My skill hovers around 300, and I noticed that I jumped up to 400 for a brief period when I was playing a lot of Air Superiority because I was shooting down 2proMLG players left and right who don't know the first thing about flying a jet.[/del] Or I could be completely wrong and spouting outdated nonsense.

30 - 5 on Dawnbreaker rush, and what happens? Fucking Xbox freezes. FuuuuuUUUUUck that.

[QUOTE=PonceDeLeon;43456709]pc master race[/QUOTE] Loading a fucking map the engine crashes. Sweet.
[QUOTE=Daemon White;43454907]Ever been on one of those teams that were pants on head retarded?[/QUOTE] Only every single time I play.
Anyone else having a hard time finding this game interesting anymore? Within the first month of it i've already gotten bored, and so has literally [b]every[/b] single person i played with. We used to have our BF4 section of our teamspeak with around 30+ people in it, all of us playing BF4 nearly every other night. Now we're lucky if there's more than 2 people in there over the course of an entire day, and i might see ~3-4 people of my 80 friends actually play BF4 anymore. It had such a broken ass launch and now the lack of any new content BECAUSE of them trying to fix the game has made pretty much everyone i know just not want to play it anymore
The core gameplay developer is back from holiday, so they're finally starting on proper balance patches: [url]https://twitter.com/Demize99/status/420819970562752512[/url]

Both are needed, though until the latter AR's will just remain better V40: Almost definitely a nerf, betting the explosion radius is larger than intended RGO: No clue, these seem really well balanced; less damage for more reliability. Maybe only carry one? FB: Definite buff, these things are more or less useless right now MAA: Definite nerf, seemingly everyone realizes how powerful they are Heli: Hopefully nerfing the insanity of scout helicopters with two mechanics riding on the side, possible attack helicopter buff Hand Flares: Intriguing.
