[QUOTE=Derp123213;50948923]nosehair canals was p fun tho[/QUOTE] Dogfights were fun because it was only 1v1.

I actually liked BF3's vanilla maps because of the amount of CQC in them and that I'm a shotgun player :v: Never forget, BF3's consistent shotguns.

never forget usas frags not being a meme but an actual IFV cannon you carried around.

Was there an update recently that I missed? My PS4 is downloading a 2.8GB update file for BF4. Found out my answer. Still downloading very slowly for some reason but it looks like they're rolling out the new UI update. By the looks of videos/images, it's looking fairly similar to the BF1 menu UI during the closed Alpha

[video=youtube;-uEc8_dcYUc]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uEc8_dcYUc[/video] say what you want about the theme in bf4 but i actually think it fit the game really well the bf3 theme was pretty bad tho imo

I like BF4 theme, especially when It drops (1:14)

So I got the game. wtf, why is the game launched from a web browser??!!? Can it be played offline? Also the game crashes on start up so there's that.

[url]https://reddit.com/r/battlefield_4/comments/4zirbt/ps4_28_gb_patch_downloading/?utm_source=mweb_redirect&compact=true[/url] In the thread the rumor is that the PC will get the update around BF1's release. I can see that happening but it made me form my own theory you could get it sooner. I believe that DICE is working very hard to have a smooth as possible launch so you might get the update around the beta instead to give it some proper testing with everything before the release.

battlelog can dick a fuck i would have prefered a console ui over it

Most of BF3's vanilla maps were basically just slightly larger CoD maps

[QUOTE=Tobin;50952305]Most of BF3's vanilla maps were basically just slightly larger CoD maps[/QUOTE] except even the smaller maps were several times larger

[video=youtube;QuxL3uRNigc]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuxL3uRNigc&feature=youtu.be[/video] God, I love those animations.

[QUOTE=cdr248;50951875]battlelog can dick a fuck i would have prefered a console ui over it[/QUOTE] Honestly I kind of like it. When it came out I thought it was the stupidest shit but the instant alt-tabbing and being able to have a second stats window up at all times was nice for tracking assignments and shit.

[QUOTE=Tobin;50952305]Most of BF3's vanilla maps were basically just slightly larger CoD maps[/QUOTE] My main problem is that the maps usually have multiple tight ass chokepoints where the only acceptable tactic is explosive spamming. Gameplay just doesn't feel very natural when you're mostly just throwing grenades and going on suicide runs just so you can spawn back a few feet from where you died so you can continue the process.

I fucking hated Grand Bazzar and Tehran, but the other maps were pretty good.

I like Battlelog.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;50953279]I fucking hated Grand Bazzar and Tehran, but the other maps were pretty good.[/QUOTE] even Metro? It literally translates to 'fucking meatgrinder' in esperanto [editline]26th August 2016[/editline] It just really does not feel like these maps were designed for 64 players

[QUOTE=Why485;50953397]I like Battlelog.[/QUOTE] Battle screen was great, that second monitor experience

[QUOTE=cdr248;50953492]even Metro? It literally translates to 'fucking meatgrinder' in esperanto [editline]26th August 2016[/editline] It just really does not feel like these maps were designed for 64 players[/QUOTE] I'm convinced they weren't. BF3 was designed with 32 players in mind because the consoles were limited to 32 and they wanted to be sure the game played well with 32. It does, but when people shove twice that many players into the maps they all fall apart except for the ginormous Armored Kill maps.

I don't mind battlelog but I'm not sad to see it go.

[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;50953831]I don't mind battlelog but I'm not sad to see it go.[/QUOTE] I assume dice had, was it Uprise? In a five year contract, bf3 is almost five years old, it will be in two months.

God, why do people play Dawnbreaker so much, that map is fucking garbage.

[QUOTE=sa2fan;50946907][video=youtube;1OdF_CBtonA]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OdF_CBtonA[/video][/QUOTE] To be honest it sounds pretty tame. Like a watered down 1942 version.
