My GTX 580 seems to be handling the game alright (Ultra) I've notice lag - but it wasn't FPS lag. I'll have to wait for the open release and see if I need to upgrade, to which I'll go to a 780.

Anyone smash this game out on the weekend? I can see a bright future. However, 2specs? Would be hard for a competitive scene. I guess they'll need to get a BattleTV like Counter-Strike:Source has (SourceTV) to spectate games.

I am level 5? only - with about 5 or so hours played. I'm deffo behind the leading levels (level 22+). I haven't really enjoyed BF4 as much as I did BF3 - but I guess when I start to unlock weapons it'll be a lot better. Also, the helicopters have been improved a lot but still HELL hard to land - and this is coming from an expert chopper pilot of the BFV, BF2 and BF3 series. It's a shame it feels like you're landing on ice and when you nose up for a sharp landing you just fall out of the sky - this may how it works in the realz, but having the helicopter psychics change after 10+ years really is not a smart idea.

Im enjoying it so far, especially hardcore over normal mode, which is strange cause in BF3 I preferred normal over hardcore. Unlocks feel slower than BF3, and there are lots more of them. I like the idea of unlocking weapons, class etc separately

wtb more hardcore domination servers though, annoys me how there are all these "HC" servers which are normal mode, to me HC means hardcore, unless Im missing something

Shame they fixed none of the bugs in BF3 though....

Yeah - I've always been an HC player. In BF3 and BF4 - there is one HC server that I know of (by MAD - or along those lines, get amongst it). Unlocking weapons does seem to take forever but I'm sure that is there for content. With BF3 I felt that there wasn't enough unlocks - now there are plenty to go around as well as time to unlock them.

I've been thinking about setting up a HC server myself so I can run a server how I like it - may as well get in the server realms so it will at least populate. I've been considering going competitive in BF4 but need to find a "Scene" that will support this idea.

I do believe BF3 is better, however it'll be a dying game as most, if not all will move over to BF4 as BF3 feels like an uncomplete game. BF4 aka BF3v2.0 will fill the gaps so bug fixes I'm not really concered about.

:)

The game is unfinished IMO

It has way to many crashes and sound issues.

Anyone played the dam level and had the sound completely cut out?

BF4 will have regulary patches to fix these issues. It is always unknown for DICE to see some of these bugs. They released the game 2 weeks after beta so only so much could get done. I reckon the next patch (a week at most imo) will have a lot of fixes. Many bugs will be weeded out by Christmas imo.

im going to give it a couple of months until stuff get sorted out.

Whilst a completely different game, I remember buying Diablo 3 when it first came out, I learnt my lesson then to wait a bit. Had $hit servers, constant errors essentially I couldn't play it. Im noticing these issues you guys are mentioning are also mentioned by a lot of others.

So I will keep with COD till about Dec then hopefully join you lot :-)

BF3 was the same, I laid off for 12 months (due to not being able to play it) - after that, it was a PAIN in the ass as a level 1 fighting against level 100's with all perks and weapon unlocks. But, running around as a medic dropping med packs got my levels.

Also, EA released an update for the servers for the "crashing" as well as server queing (Server queing could be a delay for all servers to update). This came out today on the BF4 Forums.

loving the game, hardcore has ruined normal mode for me though, but the lockups and lag are so damn frustrating.

On my other rig, IB i5, GTX 570, I cannot play more than a single map without a lockup, on mine it seems to be mainly 64 player servers that kill it. That's apart from the random disconnects.

I've also done all the preventative troubleshooting and this still occurs. Not to mention the bugginess of the maps. Don't even get me started on single player. They really need to fix their shit up, the game feels unfinished.

64 player maps are bugged atm - you'll be lucky to last a game without a crash/jittering.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
