Battlefield Franchise Megathread V1 - 'Hardline is still DLC' Edition - Games

[QUOTE=Squarebob;48130855]Sniping was easy for me in 3 but I can't do it at all in 4.[/QUOTE] Other way around for me. I haven't played 3 as much as 4, but I picked it up recently because I got it for free some time ago. It seems way easier for infantry, guns seem to have much lower TTKs and recoil than in BF4, but snipers need a headshot for a one-hit at all range.

One of the most recent BF4 changes saw these amounts drop by one point, putting off TTK in close quarters

They tweaked it so you could still 2-headshot kill with most assault rifle at close range I think.

My BF4 is fucked. Whenever I spawn, my weapons start to shoot dramatically without my interferance. Can't stop it, either. They just fire away. Tried everything. Fixed game, removed saveprof file, can't find a solution. fml

[QUOTE=Akasori;48133258]Do you have a gamepad plugged in? The right trigger could be stuck, or a key on your keyboard.[/QUOTE] It doesn't do this in any other game. But it's indeed plugged in. I'm gonna try it immediately! [editline]6th July 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Akasori;48133258]Do you have a gamepad plugged in?

Surprisingly common problem.

One of the most recent BF4 changes saw these amounts drop by one point, putting off TTK in close quarters[/QUOTE] That change has been in the game for a while. There's also just the general deal of recoil and spread. The closest thing to the M16A3 in BF4 is (arguably) the ACE 23, and that has a more inconsistent (and greater) recoil pattern, longer reload time, less standing accuracy, slower spread decrease per second, etc etc. I have no idea if it's just perception on my end but it feels like the guns in BF3 are way more controllable than in BF4.

I just slap heavy barrel on everything and call it a day. [editline]6th July 2015[/editline] I also use flashbangs exclusively because they're fun as heck. Now that shotguns are good you can pretend you're the SWAT!

Now that shotguns are good you can pretend you're the SWAT![/QUOTE] Same here. Flashbang / incendairy in every loadout. Or smoke when I feel like trolling. Throw smoke at one end, go the other. Always gets them. Also, I did 2 cool things today; One, I knifed 5 guys in mere seconds and 2, I no scoped a little bird with my M98. The guy was 200 meters away. GG. And I got mutliple hacusations, but I'm just "that good with the ACE 23 :^)" Always fun

Does anyone play with just Iron Sight? Game feels more harder and better at the same point. Just pure vanilla all day.

[QUOTE=LoNer1;48134477]Coyote all day errday.[/QUOTE] Iron Sight. Every gun*, every time. *Except snipers.

I wish there was a reason to use iron sights in BF4. In Bad Company, using a sight took up an upgrade slot that you could often use for something else that could be very important for your playstyle. It worked in Bad Company as well because the iron sights weren't as restrictive and awful as they are here.

Bleh, I wanna play Obliteration, but for some reason, Asians hate anything that's not CQ Large or TDM and the servers that do play them have shitty rules like 'No shotgun/AA Launchers' and also have a 64 player count which is too much of a clusterfuck if you ask me.

Is it me or ACE guns can OHK enemy ? Not a headshot though.

[QUOTE=coverop;48136310]Is it me or ACE guns can OHK enemy ? Not a headshot though.[/QUOTE] Probably lag/placebo.

huh trying to log into Battlelog - it keeps telling me my password/email is wrong I cleared my cache and reset my password - can log in to Origin just fine, but not Battlelog [t]http://i.imgur.com/hHAO9Vy.png[/t]

[QUOTE=coverop;48148403]It's a problem on Origin side.[/QUOTE] so is this momentary downtime? EDIT : yep, looks like it's maintenance day. Damn! I was really eager to test my new headset

So I just finally got Bf4 for like £5 on cdkeys and it's maintenance day. :/ How does it compare to Bad Company 2 Hardcore?

[QUOTE=shadowboy303;48148605]So I just finally got Bf4 for like £5 on cdkeys and it's maintenance day. :/ How does it compare to Bad Company 2 Hardcore?[/QUOTE] It's back online. Go try it.

Never playing BF4 again. It's horrid.

[QUOTE=shadowboy303;48151223]Never playing BF4 again. It's horrid.[/QUOTE] 4 is alright, but 3 just feels so much more polished and better to me. In 3 I'm consistently top of the team but in 4 I just always seem to get shit on by everyone else.

[vid]https://zippy.gfycat.com/SentimentalEnchantedBlackbird.webm[/vid] Honestly, I just don't like it. The net code is still slugish IMO, maps are tiny. And out of the 14 games I played 8 of them were the seal clubbing of my team to the point of good old base rape. Not to mention the constant fucking whining in the games chat. Back to Bad Company 2 :)

(Was prepared for the netcode :c)

lol was it really necessary to have recorded that?
