this is the most unoptimized piece of shit im running less than 10 fps on the lowest settings
Update your drivers, there are beta drivers optimized for BF4 out already.
the default LMG sucks, i dont use LMG's to have 45 bullets, i use them to have hundreds
its not so much an LMG as much as it is an automatic rifle
Love messing around with the emblem editor! [thumb]http://oi41.tinypic.com/16kwcu9.jpg[/thumb]
I feel like the shooting mechanics in BF4 are light years ahead of BF3. Those god damn bullets used to curve around corners. Now we don't have that. That alone is enough to make me prefer this over BF3.

So it keeps making me download the battlelog plugin before I can do anything and when I download and run it, it keeps telling me I dont have the correct windows version even though I am running a 64 bit windows 7. Can anyone enlighten me? Im using chrome if that helps at all.

[QUOTE=rangrangpkpk;42417594]Will they ban me for creating copyright emblems? [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/pnmxiJA.jpg[/thumb] What's their tolerance for this stuff?[/QUOTE] They banned someone for using a troll face avatar back when BF3 launched, you're fucked.
I'm putting together two videos. Top 10 things I like about BF4 beta and 10 things I don't. I got like 15 things I like and then like 5 I don't like. I'm not asking to give me info, but I'm just trying to jog my memory about playing, wondered if you could spark some thoughts on it. I saved my stuff and I am going to play again to get some more ideas.
Do you have "Played triggered obstacles don't have a cooldown" on your "things you don't like" list? It's pretty annoying when someone just spams the bollards to grief you. Those things should have a 10 sec cooldown or something. Also, I think played-triggered destruction events like the tower should only be able to be activated mid-match, because I'm guessing that in a couple of months the first thing everybody will do every match start is try to be the first one to trigger the event. In six months people will start to forget what the tower will look like.
[QUOTE=Pops;42419609]are you really complaining? the browser plugin updates from time to time, did you not play bf3 at all?[/QUOTE] God damn that fucking browser plugin was awful. Like seriously, it [I]must[/I] have been bad if it needed updating every other day.

As for the tower, that was one of my main ones. Either have it on a timer/ticket count or make it more involved to take it down, like have am mid level area they have to destroy or something. [editline]6th October 2013[/editline] Also it seems my 3770k@4ghz is bottlenecking my two GTX580's. They peak around 65% GPU usage on high, but I want higher FPS and better stability. FPS fluctuates too much.
PSA: everything will be wiped at the end of the beta, even your favourite emblems. However you can export them using this fairly simple method: [url]https://gist.github.com/cowboy/6815966[/url]
I can't even get the beta to work. It loads up the game, but the loading screen doesn't go away - the top and bottom half of it changes to ingame spectator and i can move around, although i'm under the map, but the loading screen is still there and it won't go away. After a while it then changes to a black screen that says loading in the top corner or it crashes. I managed to join a game as an actual spectator but i can't get in as a player. I can't find a way to fix it, the forums just says they know people are being stuck on a loading screen and more info about being it. That was 2 days ago. The punkbuster fix they suggested didn't help.

I really want to try the game myself but as long as the issue remains thats not happening.
Seems SLI isn't really working. I seem to get the same framerates when it's on or off.
So those who complain about having to quit the game to select another server, if you have a iOS Device (Not sure if its on Android, probably is) you can join a server from that Battlelog app and it will change while you're in game. [editline]6th October 2013[/editline] If you're having Performance problems on AMD cards, use the 13.10 Beta2 drivers, I could barely run it on low with stutter, after downloading those I could run on ultra.
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;42428736]Really? Shit, how did they nerf it?[/QUOTE] it does fuckall damage
I did some frame time tests to compare stutter. I thought maybe I was just getting annoyed at nothing. So I did a 5minute fraps benchmark test to compare. All of this was on 64 person servers. First Frametiming. We want it to be as thin of a line as possible. BF4 [url]http://puu.sh/4J4nj.png[/url] BF3 [url]http://puu.sh/4J4QB.png[/url] Notice how constrained the frame times are, they are very very very very very consistent, which makes BF3 feel like it's smooth as a baby's ass when playing at high framerates. And now we have overall FPS stats: BF4: [url]http://puu.sh/4J4RI.png[/url] BF3: [url]http://puu.sh/4J4Sj.png[/url] And then Percentiles BF4: [url]http://puu.sh/4J4TG.png[/url] BF3: [url]http://puu.sh/4J4SV.png[/url] The frame time ones are extremely telling. I know I don't have as perfect a testing system as PCPerspective but BF4 is absolute shit as frame consistency right now.
Got a few stutters/freezes a few days ago, downloaded that new driver so hopefully it improves. Considering getting it, only if I can get a deal though
so i got the new drivers im still running under 10 fps on the lowest settings

It maxes my i7-965 at 3.2GHz(yeah yeah yeah), but my GTX 590 barely even breaks a sweat.
Just played it. Really fun, but my rig can't handle it that well on low everything. Release should smooth it out a little but I do need an upgrade.
Lol, I just realized I have my CPU overclocked to 3.7GHz. [editline]6th October 2013[/editline] I knew 3.2GHz wasn't right. [editline]7th October 2013[/editline] Just got called a hacker because I shot down a douche attack chopper pilot who was raping Point C with a locked RPG. :v:
Okay, the beta is so uncomfortable to play due to stutters I think I'll pass for now. This is so heavily unoptimized, I don't even see half the shit I saw on BF3 without lags and still lag worse.

Ofcourse everything else is set to low... It's still barely playable compared to smooth as baby skin BF3 on almost maxed out settings @ 1920x1080 ...
I downloaded this on Xbox and for some reason the textures were absolutely horrible more than 5ft away. Is that because it's Beta or just because Xbox?
