I reckon it will be smaller maps and less players. They will probably try to push the competitive gaming side of it
Edit: Assuming it's real, of course
The Community Test Environment should really have all of the unlocks. I want to test, not grind.

I haven't tested CTE but don't they have XP boost 24/7 or something? Still I agree with what you said.
[QUOTE=Dwragon82997;44888932]Is there a way to reduce the hud elements like constantly showing conquest points and the triangles over teammates. I found alot of it rather distracting.[/QUOTE]
The closest you can get is turning the HUD elements off completely, by typing "UI.DrawEnable 0" in console.
Maybe they got the idea from Call of Duty: Police Warfare.
My entire friends list got reset somehow.. Add me: Areolop
Also, s/o to whoever promoted me in the North American Squad. Was not expecting that. I've been away working my ass off at work/

Fuck dudes. All my stats got reset. Loadout and unlocks are fine, but everything else is fucked. Not cool.
If it's true, maybe it's going to be a Bad Company/Modern Warfare-esque spin-off?
But yes I'd rather see a BF2143 or another WW2-era Battlefield.
My service stars are fucked. Whatever. As long as everything else is fine..
Thinking of getting BF4, is the Premium bundle worth it to get the game and all the DLCs?
When its on sale yea. I got it for 40$

You can change the transparency of HUD elements in the options.
And one shot from sniper rigle through the glass wil break it 100%

This only works for your minimap and health/ammo counter.

Nothing better than losing MVP by 50 points to some dude who sat in our base with the mobile AA the entire round <3

[QUOTE=dead60;44895413]Riot Shield Logic.
[video=youtube;9eXnditkqwQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eXnditkqwQ[/video][/QUOTE]
So clearly when this is released we need to do a FPNA riot shield rush whether or not this is tweaked.
I don't think the fact that it blocks that much damage is too outlandish considering a few things. One is the sheer volume of explosives typically involved in a match of BF4. Another would be the fact that it's only gonna work if the damage is coming from dead on. Lastly, the person holding the shield cannot deal any damage and it's gonna be up to a teammate (unlikely unless it's actually a friend you're communicating with) to take care of the threat, and that teammate will likely not be totally shielded from damage.
Could be that it blocks splash damage and not impact damage though.
I agree. While in many other games the riot shield was designed to withstand explosives at the expense of limited movement (and in this case, not being able to use your weapon) I just find it funny that DICE have repeatedly said they've been going for 'realism' and yet they're allowing someone to withstand massive explosions and rockets to the face without knocking the shield away or destroying it in the process.
Still, it'd be pretty easy to kill the shield bearer by shooting through the glass or using the XM25 to aim at the shield and shoot above it.
On an off topic, I wonder if you could attach C4 to your team-mates shield and use the shield bearer as a kamikaze bomber? :v:

3+ C4 and anti tank mines. At once. A riot shield blocking that much splash damage isn't balanced any which way you try to look at it bud

It's not like anyone's even going to use it unironically. :rolleyes:
Re installed to give it a try before the new DLC just to find out they still haven't fixed shit like the burst fire rate issue (which makes burst fire guns 100% useless) and the new weapons are still unbalanced as all fuck. At this point i've given up hope for this game, they seem too focused on releasing new content rather than making sure the old content is actually any fucking good

The burst fire thing is kind of unfixable. If there no sampling limit, people would just mod their input to fire as fast as possible. Heck, people are doing right now, they just can't fire as fast as they could otherwise.
Call of Duty 4, for instance, didn't have a sampling limit (or a very high one anyhow). You could practically fire pistols fully-auto:

have you not seen anything about the CTE?
[QUOTE=LilRobot;44910864]have you not seen anything about the CTE?[/QUOTE]
To be fair, it's not released yet so it's a moot point until we can play it in vanilla.

that's true, but at least we know they're trying now.

Funny, too bad they're a patch or two late in these episodes. Hopefully they'll catch up with the current version soon. Well I guess it takes time to make these so we can't blame them too much.

On the other hand, it's a nice blast from the past.
