So who's got this? the beta ran better than bf3 on my machine. been away for work and will likely pick this up today because i like my games in retail boxes

11/4/2013 12:50:40 PM

as much as it pains me, i'll be passing on this. i haven't been gaming at all much anymore; hell i barely played BF3. sucks getting older and priorities changing..

11/4/2013 1:00:59 PM

^ditto to all of that

11/4/2013 2:22:52 PM

I've been playing a bit on PC. It's pretty sweet.

Been playing on PC, it's a lot fun. Feels like a mash-up of all the best ideas from previous Battlefields with a handful of really cool new things. It's also the best looking and sounding game I've ever played.

11/8/2013 4:38:50 PM

^what kind of hardware and vid card do you have?

I have a 6970 OC'ed and i can only run Medium at 1080P.

The sound is really good, though. I got some new headphones today and was like damn!

What's your name on their?

Holy hell trying to drive is frustrating.

11/8/2013 10:09:14 PM

I have been playing some this week. So far as I like it. My 6970 is struggling a bit too but its definitely playable. I thought about picking up a second one off ebay and see what kind of difference it makes.

11/8/2013 10:31:17 PM

Yeh, i'm also debating a crossfire'ed 6950/6970, but they still seem to go for like $150 used. But i guess that'd be a pretty fast setup.

Wow, i can't believe i used the wrong 'there' up there...

11/9/2013 10:31:48 AM

Keeps crashing every other map

I have a GTX 760 4GB with a factory overclock. The game runs great at 1080p/Ultra. It's kind of a CPU dependent game in multiplayer and really benefits from an i7 with hyperthreading. My Origin ID is ShrikeT.

11/9/2013 3:53:19 PM

Oh and install Windows 8. For some reason the game seems to run smoother on it than on 7.

11/9/2013 5:23:15 PM

I'm having no problems at 1080p with Medium settings on my 560 ti.

11/9/2013 6:08:22 PM

I decided to pony up for a 7950 MSI Frozr or whatever. 1080P Ultra all day. I also OC'ed the shit out of it and its still going strong. I'm at 1100/1500mhz now

I've heard if you crank the prerender resolution the graphics really start to shine. i'm going to start messing with that.

I have an older i7 920 that's still doing a pretty good job.

11/10/2013 1:30:01 PM

I should have said that I'm having no problems with framerate. The game constantly crashes, however.

11/11/2013 10:19:52 AM

Yeah, the crashing is a royal bummer. I've had more than a few solid rounds wiped out due to the game crashing before the map finishes. I'm probably gonna cut back on playing until they patch that shit out.

11/11/2013 3:14:31 PM

Anyone playing this on Xbone? Is there input delay like with BF3?

11/26/2013 2:14:38 PM

I am playing it now. A bit frustrated, as I really want a squad I can play with, not random assholes that don't communicate.

There is a tiny bit of lag, but it isn't bad. The experience is really impressive.

11/26/2013 2:25:47 PM

I played with the Commander ipad app last night. It's pretty cool to be able to play a bit and rack up some points while sitting on the couch watching TV. It worked great.

bf4 for $20 http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/107426/ea-origin---battlefield-4-pc-digital-download

11/29/2013 6:15:35 PM

Someone let me know when a patch is released so I can actually start a match

11/29/2013 6:47:10 PM

^^ I picked up bf4 deluxe and sims deluxe from that deal

11/29/2013 8:18:34 PM

24 gb download took me like two hourrrrrs

11/30/2013 1:49:16 PM

Should have this sometime next week for Xbone

11/30/2013 4:46:26 PM

soooo crashy.

11/30/2013 9:09:55 PM

i was able to get a good string of games in last night, but this morning it crashed so hard i had to hard reset the xbone. thought it bricked my system.

12/1/2013 1:43:54 PM

Wow. I have to admit that I'm actually surprised that it's crashy on the consoles. I had figured that DICE spent so much of their development on consoles that they neglected the PC version and that was why it's been so problematic since day 1. My experience has gotten a little better since launch day, but it's odd that the beta was so rock solid and the final version isn't. (Obviously there's more content.)

12/1/2013 6:03:45 PM

I get to play once a week, the rest of the time it says I've lost connection to the servers/puts me in TDM when I want to play conquest. Still better than Ghost

12/1/2013 6:28:26 PM

so, so crashy

12/1/2013 10:17:30 PM

^^ This. They had better get it patched, soon.

12/2/2013 1:16:45 PM

so really.. it just sucks to be a FPS player right now?

12/2/2013 1:54:00 PM

that seems to be the consensus. at least for consoles.

12/2/2013 2:03:03 PM

the last good multiplayer fpses I can think of are tribes ascend and ns2

12/2/2013 2:07:43 PM

ns2 is pretty stellar. shame it takes so long to play a round. i really want to like b4, but i have a feeling it is going to be a no-go.

ill just play ns2 and chivalry for now.

12/2/2013 2:58:47 PM

Granted, my play sessions aren't that long, maybe 2 consecutive rounds tops, but I haven't had a crash in about 2 weeks. It's definitely improved since launch.

12/2/2013 3:19:43 PM

I get maybe 2 maps in before it either crashes/hangs on load or just crashes in game w/ that looping sound

12/2/2013 4:20:33 PM

i havent had a crash in weeks either. totally fine.

12/2/2013 7:38:30 PM

I haven't played a match in 4 days and counting. This game would join Ghost at gamestop if there was something else worth buying.

12/2/2013 7:51:05 PM

this game is so dumb. i choose conquest and it sets me up in any mode except conquest. EA needs to get their shit straight. I REALLY WANT TO LIKE THIS GAME!

12/2/2013 9:21:32 PM

I just picked up BF4 on Friday for $25.

...however, I would totally play Natural Selection 2 or Tribes Ascend with y'all. Fucking love those games, though I gave up on Tribes.

12/2/2013 9:38:55 PM

seems less crashy since this weeks patch but idk for sure yet. the browser plugin still fails to start the game all the damn time.

[Edited on December 5, 2013 at 1:36 PM. Reason : a]

12/5/2013 1:35:56 PM

nope its still crashy as shit

12/5/2013 10:37:06 PM

Are you on X1? I havent bothered putting my disc in for atleast a week. This game is reaching the end of its shelf life. I don't like the feeling that I paid $60 for a game with broken servers. If the servers were this fucked up the game shouldn't have been released.

12/6/2013 8:08:44 AM

I am on the X1. It sucks. I really like the game, but the crashing and server issues are annoying. It will crash while starting a game, crashes mid-game for no reason, you choose conquest - it takes you to deathmatch, etc.

12/6/2013 8:23:37 AM

I moved the game to my ssd and it loads about a billion times faster

12/7/2013 4:15:03 PM

^ Truth. Anytime I play an Operation Locker map, I am 9 times out of 10 the first person to load into the map and the first person to make it to C flag. Also, I don't think I have ever crashed on Operation Locker no matter how intense the action gets. I've probably crashed at least a good dozen times on ever other map, though. (Now that I think about it, maybe not Zavod 311...)

When this game is good, it's blissful. But when it rubberbands and lags and crashes, it makes me want to shoot programmers.

12/9/2013 9:47:23 AM

How do you detonate the throw-able anti-tank explosive?
