open beta on ps3 too?
i can't run this worth a shit
doesn't seem to be released yet in NA? for xbox.
nevermind I got it, had to change locale.settings to UK
[QUOTE=Turing;42370823]it doesnt do almost any damage[/QUOTE]
What. The. Fuck. If that is final, then this blows. I've jihad jeeped since 1942, even though you didnt even need explosives to blow up a tank witha jeep
So despite a few letdowns(Jihad jeeps :C) am I the only one that really likes the beta?
It runs at a solid 60 on my 680, the map design is great (no grind/chokepoints, infantry can actually pose a threat to tanks now) and weapons feel like actual guns instead of souped-up nerf guns.
I also like the new class system and slower progression, my first impression is actually better than I anticipated.
The progression is quite obviously not final, they don't want people getting the new unlocks you can get in the beta too quickyl

do you have the beta drivers? i didnt bother to install them yet and it was jumping between 10 to 80 fps on my 670 on low
[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;42368206]I'm getting stutter on my 7970ghz, but that's namely because I'm cranking it to Ultra mode.
Some things I've noted so far:
- VOIP is fucking useful
- The game is gorgeous[can't wait for SweetFX!]
- You can now pretty much do whatever you want with your kits
- You can lean. Life has become so much easier.
- Also of stuff is better managed now for quickly changing weapons and such.
- Unlike BF3, a few shot is all it takes to drop someone.
- Bullets are much faster than before.[/QUOTE]
The weapons actually do less damage.
Altimor it looks like the AK-12 fills in for the role of M16 of BF4.
[QUOTE=Artifact;42373328]Altimor it looks like the AK-12 fills in for the role of M16 of BF4.[/QUOTE]
No it has no recoil and seems to have low RoF
I hope the class loadouts (attachments aside) aren't final. It was refreshing in BF3 to have the different teams actually have different starting weapons.
[QUOTE=xalener;42369241]Yeah, it's not going anywhere. It's been around for way too long; multiple releases.[/QUOTE]
BF2 and BF2142 was squad leader only, only with the recent BF games have they done away with that.
On a different note, I can see that BF4's hit detection is shit again. So much for BF4 being a esport game. :v:

i'd hope it would run at 60 fps on a gpu that costs almost $500
[QUOTE=Mrfantasticool;42372245]It runs at a solid 60 on my 680[/QUOTE]
What do you get for FPS without vsync? I ask because I run 5960x1080 on a single 670, so I can roughly gauge it at 1/3 your max.
[QUOTE=Turing;42369562]omg
they patched jihad jeep
why[/QUOTE]
this wasnt even op, its just just plain stupid
they ruined my new found interest in bf4
[QUOTE=matte3560;42370576]Anyone else here having problems joining servers? I keep getting this shit:

Pressing reconnect does nothing, I just get the same thing again. The weird thing is that I can spectate games no problem.[/QUOTE]
Apparently this happens because I have two soldiers (because of the clusterfuck of EA accounts i had that got merged together). Talked with EA support, and apparently the process of deleting a soldier is somewhat complicated, so I'm going to get a mail when they resolve it. Hopefully it doesn't take too long.
[QUOTE=gudman;42369076]Holy shit ability to spawn on any squad member is irritating. It's a medic train on a whole diffirent level now.[/QUOTE]In bf3 there was spawn protection. None of that now.
All ya gotta do is fire away.
[QUOTE=Lizzrd;42384145]In bf3 there was spawn protection. None of that now.

So no more shooting at a guy and having a teammate spawn in front of him as an immobile piece of cover?
[QUOTE=Lizzrd;42384145]In bf3 there was spawn protection. None of that now.

That I did notice, yeah. Was a pleasant surprise, I expected there to be spawn protection.

so, there's some guy with an hmg shooting at me from across the river, I duck behind a car, and as the guy is unloading into the car, oil/gas starts to spill out, it ignites, and I die a painful death
Do you have to pump more bullets into people to make them die than in BF3?
[QUOTE=Str4t0s;42385474]Do you have to pump more bullets into people to make them die than in BF3?[/QUOTE]
Technically speaking yes, damage has been lowered overall but you can still die just as fast depending on whats shooting you.
snipers are generally a one hit kill from the chest up

sniper rifle, and only if you're within like 10 meters
From the makers of colorfield and bordercolorfieldlands, I bring iteration one of colorfield 4 effects sweet suite
(Incredibly simple SweetFX preset to re-saturate Battlefield 4)
To use this, download and install [url=https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17239680/Downloads/ColorField/Colorfield4/Colorfield.zip]this[/url]. It has 2 presets: [url=https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17239680/Game%20Photos/BF4/ColorField/Beta/C1.jpg]Colorfield 1[/url] (high saturation) and [url=https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17239680/Game%20Photos/BF4/ColorField/Beta/C2.jpg]Colorfield 2[/url] (subtle saturation), depending on your taste in color.
If you do that right, here's what your game will now look like this (not initially - I've changed it to default to the subtle one. Read the readme to learn how to use the higher saturation I used in these images):

Posting this because with every new game that's not "sufficiently colorful" I shit out one of these for all my friends and I to use. I can't stand washed-out games.
I can't even get into the game. It freezes when I'm loading the map.
Welp, we're actually trying to ADD color into Battlefield this time. How far we've come.

we've been doing this for as far back as 1942.

I remember discovering what bloom was for the first time from a Photoshopped screenshot of the Eve of Destruction mod for Battlefield 1942. Good times.

Yeah, but BF3 really is an oversaturated mess. Not a huge fan of the amount of grey in BF4 either, but at least I can pick out silhouttes most of the time, which is the important thing. I used to have great fun in BF3 hiding in a bush with black camo on. 100 percent invisible thanks to lolcontrast.
Also, here's hoping we'll have first-person death animations in hardcore or something. It's been that way since BF2 and (while you only see them at the end of a round or when you quit a game) BF4 does have first person death anims, and they're great--you actually see your legs and shit as you fall over, not the stupid BF3 "oh look there is my hand" stuff.
