Love how easy it is to catch a ride on an enemy tank. Half the time the driver even ejects in an attempt to kill me, allowing me to take the tank for myself.
[QUOTE=Kilgore 2nd;42746613]Bit like the guy who's got a 15 something KDR who's currently top of the division 1. I checked his stats, about 30 kills from his engineer weapon. 500 or so just from tanks and that's all he's played. Vehicle whore much lol[/QUOTE]
Anyone who's on top of a leaderboard is a booster anyway.
[QUOTE=daijitsu;42746029]save for the glitchy state of release I think it's well worth the upgrade. The second assault map pack will bring back a lot of major maps from 3 anyways so you won't really have to miss them[/QUOTE]
wait is that a premium only thing?

The ol' switcharoo when torching the enemy tank while it tries to reach me still works flawlessly. Driver bails, I take his tank, floor it (and most likely crush him in the process).
[QUOTE=Slugathor;42742160]If anyone has slow loading times, go to Nvidia Control Panel then Manage 3D settings and search for BF4.exe and switch threaded optimization on.[/QUOTE]
thank you so fucking much, made the load times from 2 minutes to like 15 seconds.
This thread has been helpful, looks like I won't be buying BF4 for a long time
Okay, so how do I commander? What's the purpose of reinforcing squads, this evac thing, etc?
Let's play BF4!
Oh wait! Ofcourse everyone is assault/medic!

Different control points have different bonuses for Commander - Infantry Scan, Vehicle Scan, and either Gunship deploy(supports up to 3 players that can bomb the ground) or Cruise Missle(which you point yourself but can be blocked by enemy UAV EMP).
[QUOTE=Turing;42747035]wait is that a premium only thing?[/QUOTE]
it's a map DLC coming out later I thought
having premium makes all the DLC's only $10 each (plus all the random bonus content you get), so it's a sound investment if you plan on playing a lot anyways

Repost for your benefit:
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;42742268]
[B]FYI: enemy EMP drones WILL destroy your Tomahawk mid-flight if it crosses its circle of influence.[/B]
You can use this to your advantage.
If you time it right, you can avoid this by launching the Tomahawk when the enemy EMP drone has less than half active time remaining.
Best targets in order: Artillery (Will not move 9 out of 10 times), Motars (Same as artillery), Rooftops Snipers (Move a bit but stay in the same general area), Emplacements (HMG, Wire-Guided Missiles), clusters of defensive enemies (deployed MGs, pinned-down squads, immobile armor in long-range engagement). I'd recommend not engaging anything else as it's a gamble and you don't want to waste a Tomahawk.
If your enemy has access to the Tomahawk, reserve your EMP drone to take the Tomahawk down if it's going to strike a friendly unit. After one Tomahawk, you can use your EMP drone once before you need to reserve it once again for the Tomahawk.
AS SOON AS THE POINT GIVING ACCESS TO THE TOMAHAWK IS CONTESTED, NOBODY CAN USE IT! The cooldown for the tomahawk is separate for each commander and continue even if you don't have access to it. Meaning you can launch the Tomahawk as soon as you've got access to the point, giving that you're not in cooldown. Prepare to launch it before your troops capture it, but only when the enemy has his EMP drone on cooldown!
Squad promotion will give one tier of perk to any squad.
Resupply drop is VERY useful as it only takes 4-5 seconds to reach the ground. See that squad engaging an enemy squad? Drop a crate right behind them and watch as it turns the tide of the fight! Basically try to "snipe" with a crate friendly squads that are mostly defensive and don't move too much to reinforce their position, or drop one in front of a moving squad to refresh their health and ammo pool in preparation for the next fight. Use it! Abuse it!
Speaking of abusing, if you're not spamming the UAV every 10 seconds you're doing something wrong. It should ALWAYS be in the air somewhere, hopefully in a position where it can do some good.
Squad reinforcement apparently give a squad the ability to spawn faster, but hasn't been very useful so far.
Vehicle para-drop might be useful on Obliteration, but not really on conquest.
The enemy EMP drone will both hide enemy troops and friendly troops from your view, meaning you can't give them support.
That's all I got for now.[/QUOTE]

It's like a season pass, but you know what you're getting, and you get perks with it.

U-100 with stubby grip is laser machine gun.
what's the criteria for that veteran battlepack?
Won as a Commander, feels good. Now which maps have tomahawk? All I had was an ac-130 which got taken down pretty quick
Hahaha seriously, what the fuck. Did they not test this game WHATSOEVER before release?
So it corrupted my save when i was on the 2nd to last mission, i decide since i've got nothing better to do so go replay them all. Get to the end of mission 6, literally 30 seconds away, somehow end up getting stuck in an area and have to commit suicide to restart back. I do that, it crashes. Every time i would try to load up the mission and resume, it would crash. Decide to click replay missions, it crashes, and corrupts my save [b]again[/b] and removes all of the progress i had.
This game is a fucking joke.
literally every employee at dice is an amateur
I am amazed at how terrible the Stealth Jets are. That gun has to be the weakest gun in the entire game. It can't kill [I]anything[/I] in a reasonable amount of time. Not planes, not helicopters, not tanks, not infantry, not even soft targets. It's ridiculous. I honestly don't believe it's possible to kill a jet in a single burst without overheating.
To add insult to injury, the attack jets are significantly better at killing planes because the gun will shoot down other jets with only a good one second burst. Your winning a dogfight against an attack jet relies solely on not getting hit and you very slowly wearing down their health to the point that they bail out. You'll never get a kill unless the other pilot is a complete idiot or wants to die.
It's kinda funny how I hate all these bolt action run n shoot guys but I catch myself doing that too to unlock some stuff... :v:
Anyone know how many DLC's there'll be?
Or is it confirmed to be as many as in BF3?

Yeah it's silly, I just took down an AC130 and it only took me like 5 runs (3 of which were flawless, ie hold down M1 and hit every bullet until it overheats).
Meanwhile, every other jet eats through AC130s in 2~3 runs, and they don't even have to be flawless.

yes, stealth jets are a joke
but they have some 30mm unlockable, there is hope
edit: hey, littlebirds have them too, maybe there is hope
I don't know, besides the crashing issues I really enjoy BF4, I couldn't stand BF3, but this is even better than Bad Company 2.
BF3 is boring now, for me at least.
Goddammit. Played a decent enough match as sniper, shit is going my way unlocking stuff. Then crash. Fucking hell Dice.
*fires pistol rapidly at point blank, gets killed by opponent, sees the persons health on the killcam at 100 meaning he took no damage whatsoever*
*swings knife at guy point blank, clearly hits him several times, doesn't register, gets killed by opponent*
*tries to level sniper, doesn't get very far because most of the time is getting killed by anyone with an automatic weapon way before getting an ideal sniping scenario, or it missed even when sight is dead on*
*looks at battlelog to see the insane amount of points needed for the better rifles*
*wonders why he bought this game a lot of the time*
I am awful at anything that isn't tank

Just like the way battlefield 3 went for me. I got so many points and ranks, just from playing support because I was the only cunt playing it. At least now in Battlefield 4, the support guns are pretty damn good so, i'll be sticking with that. Once I get my ammo box/larger ammo pounches, i'll be rolling in points
Paracell on rush with 64 players if fucking broken as shit. You cant even get the first bomb because how well they can turtle on the boat wreck.
