So who's going to be playing on X1 this time next week?

I have a feeling I'm going to suffer with the new easier to die damage system as I have a maximum attack playstyle so feel free to add me and I'll find all the campers & claymores ahead of you :pac:

GT: iColdFusion

I can't wait for 64 player battles with a load of friends, mayhem!! :eek:

ZiabR · 15-11-2013 7:34pm

They need to fix the game before I feel excited about moving to the X1. Sadly, it has been a major let down so far.

damn, i'm jealous.. must start saving!

Anyone know what's the story with the Second Assault DLC on the Xbox One.

I know it's released Friday with launch but
1. Must you be a premium member to avail of it?
2.Is only available for two weeks and then its officially released next year??

What time next year? That's fairly ridiculous.

Wow thats great, I know they have been hyping it like mad recently but I thought it would be out after China Rising at least.

Mr Blobby · 22-11-2013 10:03pm

Just tried 2 games there and had to quit within a 1 minute!
Getting some crazy lag :mad:

Can't find any servers where my ping is above 2 bars.

GottaGetGatt · 23-11-2013 3:26am

Game is running Perfect for myself.Alos my nat type is finally set to open after months of it being on moderate on the 360.More importantly it looks absolutely amazing on the Xbox.All the talk of resolution just goes out the window once you start playing.Only played a handful of the 64 player maps but flood zone is my Favorite so far.Every flag is like metro B flag on the 360.The attack boats are great craic.

Static M.e. · 23-11-2013 12:18pm

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know can you play BF4 with your friends on Xbox one and 360? Only one of us has the Xbox one so Im sure if we can still play on the same maps?

Thanks

Anyone up for a few games today? online now

It's deleted my single player save twice, it regularly boots you back to the dashboard and quite regularly its impossible to find a multiplayer game.
Other than that, I'm enjoying it

ktulu123 · 24-11-2013 11:21pm

Only loss about losing the single player safe is you dont have the M249 yet. Beast of a gun! Good stuff it looks decent on it

hallo dare · 26-11-2013 11:51am

Anyone with BF4 for the PS3 and are planning to upgrade it to the PS4 version with Gamestop, get your ass into Gamestop now as today is the last day that they will do the upgrade.

Just found out myself today, cos in the small writing it says that Gamestop can change the 30 day bring it back upgrade to less than 30 days if they want.

You've been warned!!!!

Yeah same here, the crashes are a complete WTF of sprinting along one second and then blink your on the dashboard but its still good fun.
I'm surprised how difficult I'm finding the vehicles though, I was a total vehicle whore in BF3!

Single player is better than people are making it out to be too, am I right in saying Irish is Omar from The Wire!?

acquiescefc · 27-11-2013 11:55am

Is anyone getting onto Second Assault maps with other players?
Every game mode/server shows as zero players.

Had a look around some of the 2014 version maps but i thought as its downloadable it must be playable with others. Air Superiority says i havent downloaded the DLC.

I dont have Second assault, but I do have china rising, Air superiority is also unavailable for me.

Edit - it says on the official website that Second assault isnt available until december 3rd although its hard to follow whats early access for premium members.

Yeah i think Dec 3rd is normal release date but XB1 has two weeks early access supposedly.

Couldve got it wrong. But i could get into the maps, except for AS, just there were no players in. Was walking round on my own. May check tonight if its changed.

iColdFusion · 28-11-2013 12:46pm

I had a few games of Second Assault yesterday, populated servers are hard to come by alright.

Oman is good but the sandstorm comes in too early and ruins it, stops the snipers but a good attack heli can clean up as the jets are blind.

Firestorm is okay but with added sniper nests, I would like a 3 flag version with 64 players to keep things hectic.

One round of Metro was a spawn camp fest in the tunnels but 64 players make it mayhem and its far tougher to keep them pinned.

Caspian is good aswell, better than on 360 and seems to work even with all the flags.

How did you find a server? Didnt play yesterday but Tuesday there was no populated servers.

Alot of the time there are none but I just filtered the four maps and conquest and got lucky. The empty spaces filter doesn't work very well so I usually leave them all unticked.

FAILSAFE 00 · 29-11-2013 1:40pm

Explains why the Second assault servers are always empty. So much for the 2 week Xbox One exclusivity.

having issues logging into the battlelog app with my origins account. The app says you can scan in a QR code from the game. Anyone see where this code is ?

GottaGetGatt · 29-11-2013 2:11pm

Second assault maps are working.I've been in them a few times.nicely revamped they are

iColdFusion · 29-11-2013 3:09pm

Hotel Oman at flag E now has an elevator inside and a .50 sniper with long range scope on the roof :pac:

Played a few more rounds of Metro, yeah its still a complete grenade spam fest, the new side corridors are the worst for it!

Anybody looking for the hidden Caspian tunnel the vid is here, its a great route for flanking from the US side in pretty much the reverse of that vid and getting the tags of someone arming the tower bomb

I want to start adding more people on my friends list who are playing BF4 on the Xbox One.

Pop me a friends request:

calex71 · 02-12-2013 8:45pm

Are folks having issues with losing connection to conquest games? Every other mode is fine but after 4 or 5 minutes I always get disconnected

Battlefield 4 is supposed to be getting a major update tomorrow so fingers crossed that will solve many of our issues.

That's for the PC only, the console versions are delayed, presumably due to the certification process demanded by Sony/MS.

they reckon they'll be out in less than a week though, if you go into the battlelog app on your phone, it pops up in the little message of the day window.

miralize · 06-12-2013 7:23pm

Anyone else getting the odd frame skip / lag?

Battlefield servers are being upgraded apparently.

They were supposed to be doing something with the server browser last night and from what I've seen nothing has changed.

Has anyone being able to find a hardcore server?Server browser displays no results.Have to get those 5 sniper kills from the top of the tower on firestorm.

Stone Deaf 4evr · 10-12-2013 12:13am

good god this game is frustrating the sh1t out of me!!!! yet again, I fire up my xbox only to keep getting kicked back to the main menu time after time. My gaming time is limited and I cant handle the way this is totally unreliable. when it does work, its sweet, sweet goodness though.

VivGrise · 10-12-2013 4:58pm

Ya, when you get into a lobby I tend to stay there as long as I can. I have 3/4 Hardcore domination servers saved that are stable enough, but can't play a Conquest game at all.

any chance you might report back with the hardcore server numbers, i cant find none at all using the server browser

VivGrise · 10-12-2013 6:11pm

Yup, I'll do it there when I get home at 11 tonight.

miralize · 10-12-2013 6:13pm

I cant join any today either. Irish problem only?

I'll try that, I've been getting into games no problem just using the quick match option, as of yesterday I can get into nothing except the odd defuse game.

It's a brilliant game though.

History was so-so, but spent 30 mins trying to get into a game and couldnt so gave up.

But yeah, brilliant game, from what i remember

Why would a system level update affect the game? BF4 update is what we actually need

The update addressed xbl MP issues. I was kind of hoping it would improve a few things.

The system update wont address Battlefield 4 servers issues but hopefully Dice will give us an update for Bf4 in a few days. I am kind of sorry that I rushed to buy premium now.
