Battlefield 4

    DICE Los Angeles (Danger Close --> Medal of Honor) made the China Rising pack.


    I agree Paracel Storm is my favourite, followed by Shanghai and Dawnbreaker (love the chopper in those 2 maps) I kinda like Guilian Peaks except for the millions of snipers. The other 3 are meh.. Dragon Pass is beautiful though!

    Rogue Transmission is really cool although I wished for a little bit more space between flags.


    Lancang Dam = worst unbalanced vehicle map in BF history. Don't know why they haven't taken all Air in the map. I did not like Metro so obviously Operation Locker is a no no.

    Flood Zone = Cool until the levelution starts. They should have integrated the flooding levelution in Lancang Dam, and make it a multi stage map (Flags below the dam, Flags above Dam) and make the lower part floodable.

    Goldmud Railway is good but AA are way too strong as there are basically no fucking cover for air vehicles anywhere on the map. Man BF2 maps were so awesome. Dragon Valley, Kubra Dam, Fushe Pass all had great environment for Air fighting.


    Zavod is unplayable in 64player conquest. It's fucking chaotic. Best to play 32/48 on it.

    Hainan Resort = Wtf no cover and the flags should have been more spread out. Seems like DICE tried to put a fucking boat in every map.


    Actually, I enjoy a lot more 32/48p BF3/BF4. BF2 teamplay, huge maps allowed for better 64p imo.


    I'm still loving BF4 but I hope they step up their game for the next 4 DLC. (Also why does it take so long to release Second Assault when it has been out since FOREVER on Xbox One) fuuuuuu


    Oh and they need to add customisation of the 3D hud elements -->Opacity mainly. This shit is annoying. Can't see shit most of the time when player align with some of the 3D HUD.

    China Rising wasn't made by DICE LA, there likely was a lot of help though but the main level artists/designers were at DICE for at least 2 maps that I know of (and maybe all)? It's hard to know these days when a lot of EA studios chip in for the bigger titles.


    There's a lot of misconceptions out there between DICE and DICE LA Some even think BF4 was entirely made by DICE LA.

    keep playing BF3, srsly


    this. i'd wait for another humble bundle with bf4 in it or something. then you'll probably get a patched up game for a price you can't rage about.

    50% off deluxe version on Origin today. Is $35 worth it or should I keep playing BF3?


    If you have a mate who has the game, ask if you could borrow his Origin login so that you can test if it runs properly on your computer. I don't know it's current state (but based on the many news item it's still not entirely fixed).

    The details released about Naval Strike (cool sounding new maps, and a return of Titan mode!) broke me down into buying Premium last night. This morning I found all the Premium rewards thus far waiting for me to open them: 9 Premium battlepacks and 4 gold ones. I got this from the final gold one:

    Instantly made my purchase feel worth it. The China Rising maps were very underwhelming last night, but a 2x FLIR scope for my favorite gun? Yes please!

    I feel like such an idiot for buying BF4 on both PC and PS4, getting Premium for PC only and then ending up playing that version for 1/10th of the time that I've spent on the PS4 :/ Heard good things about the Second Assault pack tho, even if that is just old recycled maps.

    just saw that there's a new patch brought out as of today (for pc at least). think I'm going to try to join a server tonight to check up on my performance/stability issues with bf4...

    "We haven't seen any damage [to the brand from these issues]," he reportedly said. "Clearly we're very focused on protecting that brand."We've also tried to provide extra content to the consumers to make sure they keep coming back and playing the game and we're finding that it's working very well. I don't see that there's a damage issue. I think for us it's making sure that we're providing great gameplay for the consumer and we'll continue to do that."

    They haven't seen any damage? Are they kidding? I guess they're talking from a sales point of view, but still.. The Battlefield 4 brand has definitely been damaged. I have always been a fan of the BF series, but I haven't played Battlefield 4 because of all the bad things I've been hearing, and a lot of my friends feel the same way. The brand has definitely been damaged, and they need to rectify this for BF5 and probably the next Battlefront game too.
