[QUOTE=arvarkdb;43469453]sniper rifles should not be allowed to use reddots, especially in hardcore.[/QUOTE]
Oh yea...because they are way easier to use than let's say your typical ACE-23 or M416, these ARs compared to Bolt Actions with CQC Sights require so much precision, patience and knowledge about ingame ballistics, otherwise if you miss one shot, you are essentially dead.
Also, game is balanced around normal mode, not hardcore, but that is a different story, doesn't matter as all guns' TTK is WAAAAAAAAAAY too fast even in normal.

In hardcore sniper's ttk is 1ms

That use to happen all the time in BF3 QA, lol.
Anyone else having a hard time with performance?
I have a Core 2 QX6800 with 2.93 Ghz, 4 gigs of ram and a Geforce GTX660, yet I can´t get decent framerates you need for playing a shooter.
I have heard that a big pathc that came early december has made the performance really bad.
Anyone knows if thats true? Will they fix it?
Bought the game some days ago and I am pretty frustrated about not being able to properly play it.

4Gig Ram is not enough for BF4 I'm afraid.
Do you think thats the only problem?
Because when everything is on low, tere are times I have 50 fps and the next moment i drop down to 10 or so and it´s more like a slideshow.
But well if thats the only thing thats bottlenecking my framerate then it´s really worth an upgrade.

I would wager that it's your CPU that is seriously holding you back. When I made the jump from a Core 2 6600 to an i5 3750 it was like night and day. A much bigger difference than I was expecting, and I had a worse GPU at the time as well. (560Ti)

Battlefield does have some issues though. Lets not lie to ourselves here. I'll get 50/60 FPS all the time then randomly it'll stutter.. and then return to FPS

If it's stuttering then try to limit your FPS and also try to disable CPU parking. That might fix it
They really need to fix this OHK bug. You can play smoothly on one map and all of the sudden one hit from enemy 40 meters away not even a headshot killed you with 100 hp.
The rubber banding that was once just a problem on certain servers is now consistantly a problem on every server. I'm running every connection test I know of and everything is coming up great. I'm monitoring bandwidth use on both my router and computer, logging connections in and out, and for the life of me I cannot figure it out.
What makes it worse is that BF4 is the only game that does this.

i think it is the ram amount. I hear that people with phenom x4 are playing the game well, and that is pretty similar to core 2 quad. Also, windows 8 will help a little with cpu performance. and overclocking would help too.
I have a 780GTX and i5 core cpu. And im not satisfied with the performance on maxed out I dont even get 45fps on 64player servers. My pc is pretty new and I'll be replacing this cpu to i7 4770 beceuse according to some tests BF4 likes cpu power as much as it likes ram.
Overclocking would help sure but I dont do that.
I have no idea whether or not it's actually true so take it with a grain of salt, but my experience is that Battlefield 4 is more CPU intensive than graphically.
I recently upgraded from a GTX 260 to a GTX 560ti and noticed almost no frame rate increase. This is with an Intel Q9550 2.83ghz processor.

This is absolutely true. Many people have tested the effects of upgrading CPU vs GPU and BF4 puts a lot of work on the CPU.
I'm using a gtx760 with an i5 3570K and the game runs very well for me (except for the rubber banding but that has nothing to do with my computer).

Are you able to run shadowplay on ultra? I can't on my 770 :(

People said the same about BF3 and I had no problems running that on 4GB
Heh I was piloting a transport heli on that giant satellite dish map and I noticed an enemy attack helicopter getting ready to take to off. I promptly flew above the enemy chopper and tactically sat on it as it tried to take off, causing them to crash.
My 4 fellow crewmen and I all had a good chuckle

Actually yes, it runs really well with shadowplay on ultra. I was quite surprised.
I played a game of Silk Road with PonylionHD once. He's actually a pretty good pilot when he isn't doing crazy stunts.

wait what, you're implying that having shadowplay enabled has some effect on the FPS?

Considering the card is encoding what you're seeing/hearing to mp4 and then acting in the capacity of a PVR, I'd say it is probably taking a small toll on your FPS. That said a gtx770 is quite a bit better than a 760, so he must have a bottleneck on his motherboard or his cpu is acting up.

Well um I always thought of shadowplay as a hardware solution to the fact that constantly recording gameplay with software tools is quite laggy, though I'm unable to see for myself

I experienced it first hand.
I used to have a Core 2 Q6600E and a GTX 560Ti. During the beta I had serious problems with stuttering and sporadic framerate drops. Around release of the game I upgraded to an i5 3570k and I saw a huge improvement in my framerate and the consistency of my framerate.
Battlefield just doesn't run well with pre-i3/i5/i7 CPUs.

It is a good solution. It's still miles ahead of recording with software tools and I have it on all the time. Haven't used it much yet but I'm sure I will.

Well now I know what I need to upgrade :v:
Why is joining servers such a problem with Could not join server (1) and COULD NOT FIND SERVER. Is it too much to type an error message that actually lets me know what the hell is up.

They even changed "Connection to server timed out" from BF3 to "Something went wrong" in BF4

Lol enjoy that +2 fps wow.
I have an GTX 780 Ti and a i5 2500k at 4.4ghz and this game runs smooth getting 100+ framerates all the time.
