There goes the servers also couldn't believe that this would work [t]https://jii.moe/NJVfL3drg.jpg[/t] but it does :)

[QUOTE=Scratch.;49320346]There goes the servers also couldn't believe that this would work [t]https://jii.moe/NJVfL3drg.jpg[/t] but it does :)[/QUOTE] How. Can you really launch the game like that? Do you get the steam overlay in-game?

[QUOTE=kisaraji;49320959]How. Can you really launch the game like that? Do you get the steam overlay in-game?[/QUOTE] No Steam's just a web browser among things, specifically chromium I just use the console to open battlelog instead of the steam store

[QUOTE=kisaraji;49320959]How. Can you really launch the game like that? Do you get the steam overlay in-game?[/QUOTE] I used Battlelogium too, but I didn't get Steam Overlay.

[QUOTE=Akasori;49317380][t]http://i.imgur.com/uDK8Lr3.jpg[/t] I wonder if I should just disable Shadowplay altogether. Time to time it crashes my game and ruins the awesome moment I want to record.[/QUOTE] I've been having the same problem so you're not alone.

I wish more people played Rush, I never liked Conquest that much.

[QUOTE=Fat White Lump;49325713]I wish more people played Rush, I never liked Conquest that much.[/QUOTE] It's more like a "Free-Mode" which I love it. The new map is very impressive. So far Dragon Valley is the biggest map in BF4. Other maps such as Silk Road , Dragon Pass or even Giants Of Karelia

This map exceeded all my expectations. It’s so damn good, and so much fun. It’s a real testament to how powerful map design is in creating gameplay. This is still just vanilla BF4, but the way the map is designed and plays feels so much like classic Battlefield. It’s an incredible counterpoint to what Battlefield has become, and an amazing showcase of what it used to be. This map [I]is[/I] Battlefield, and probably the best possible map this game could have ended on. Also here's a sweet ass trailer made by the community for the official Battlefield channel that hits all the right notes. [hd]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oT3JWbBsu2E[/hd]

Christ. Hearing the Chinese theme's little tune from BF2 gave the chills more than anything else has in a long time. Honestly, I can't really think of a series I have as much nostalgia for. Every little piece of music from more or less any game that isn't Hardline does something similar for me.

All that does is make me wish the series took a 180 degree turn in the graphic and music department, making music faction themed, making the factions look apart more, and not using way too much post-processing like 3 and 4 does. I swear, those player models can look identical, most of the time the lighting makes it look like a grey mess, and it doesn't help how similar some classes are, especially assault. On a more happy note, I just love these cinematic trailers. It really shows why I love battlefield, few games allow so much that you don't need a pre-animated trailer to show off, just coordination and good editing.

I really like rush on Dragon Valley. It's much better than the implementation of the gamemode on the other maps.

I dont agree with what you say about the character models not being differentiated enough though. Aside from the Chinese, the US and the Russian's character models are based off gear those countries actually use, and they look different enough while maintaining themes across the classes.

Sorry if this is overposted but I want to get Battlefield 2 on Steam but I can't buy it.

I've been playing a lot of Gun Master and Domination lately. It's much more fun to play than the large scale gamemodes when you're solo since you have a much greater impact on the match. And the matches don't take 60 minutes.

I play Conquest the most and with 800 tickets the matches take like 20 minutes usually.

But I like when people do the objective in objective-based game modes, I notice a lot more people do what they're supposed to in Rush than Conquest. I hope more maps are designed with Rush in mind like Battlefield 3, not all just more.

You can download the entire game from there and it comes with its own launcher to connect with its own master server rather than EA's dead one.

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;49316884]well, my point is that the fps drop is minimal. Of course with a refresh rate that high everything matters Did you make the jump from 60/75 to 144 recently? I've never had the chance to get my grubby hands (eyes?) on a 144hz monitor[/QUOTE] About a year ago when I built this PC.

How dead is hardline?

[QUOTE=TheNugget;49341233]How dead is hardline?[/QUOTE] Okay so imagine someone being hit point blank with a nuke, then double that amount of [I]dead.[/I] That's Hardline

Ah that sucks, I remember the beta being pretty cool.
