Battlefield 4 - PS4

The PS4 version is look like it'll be great, one of youtubers (Levelcap) I sub to is predominantly PC gamer but his got a load of positive things to say about the PS4 and ONE versions.

Timmyctc · 01-11-2013 11:44pm

I thought CoD always ran more FPS than BF3. Its infinitely smoother but thats usually because theres Eff all going on.

It's definitely going to be a big improvement. New controller and new hardware! I seen a few PS4 BF4 videos on youtube and it looks a lot smoother than PS3 but I was still nick picking with the BF graphics. Maybe its just DICE but I think things should be more sharp and less bloggly (for lack of a better word).

Some parts of BF4 look awesome though, looks like an artist drew them. I am holding off buying the PS3 version and waiting a month as I think it would be a waste not to go through the whole thing on PS4.

Hey guys, just wondering where is the cheapest place to pick up bf4 on friday for the ps4 launch? everywhere I look, it's listed in-or-around 70e, which is way too much IMO.

Any ideas ?

Varik · 27-11-2013 1:05am

Downloaded the android commander app so might give that a go when I get the game, as you need a character on battlelog to play.

Yes that's it ! I would prefer less of it but it may be down to hardware.

I was thinking of getting the commander app but only have a 4.3" smart phone and it may really be designed for a tablet.

Double XP for a week from Thursday I believe ! Can't wait to get my hands on the DS4.

I side loaded it onto my note 3, it's a bit small at that to be honest.

Also, you have to get to lvl 10 before you can be commander.

That's for the Premium members only this weekend. Next weekend is double XP for all players and a scope unlock for the M1911 pistol for everyone who logs in on Dec 5th.

I read earlier that they had to change it as it clashed with the Premium players weekend so they had to re oraganize the f up weekend.

Actually I got it wrong, the f up weekend is this weekend so they had to move the Premium weekend back a week so they don't clash.

The premium weekend is the one that moved.

Sorry if this has been answered before, but has the latest patch fixed most of the problems?

I was playing it yesterday and it was the same. Takes ages to find a game lobby, and even when you are able to join one, lets say conquest for some reason you end up playing squad team deathmatch or something similar.

The game is very enjoyable but there are lots of problems at the moment, dashboarding continuously, loosing your saved data (campaign), fuzzy intermittent screen issues, etc.

I will try again today but I am afraid it will be the same.

I dont see the point of getting double xp if you can't play the game anyway.

29-11-2013 1:35pm

This is a fantastic game when it works. I've had lots of sound glitches and it's crashed back to the home screen a few times, but the multiplayer is incredible fun.

Glico Man · 29-11-2013 3:37pm

Just had my first crash to XMB

From the 30 or so minutes I played, it was great fun. Hope that hasn't erased all my good (read average) work thus far.

aindriu80 · 29-11-2013 4:52pm

I just lost all my campaign progress in BF4 on the PS4. Everything gone ! I just finished the fourth mission and an error came up ( I got tons of them), but this time it is different, it said my save files are corrupt and it brought me back into the campaign again at the very first level. I can't believe it.

I have the latest version of the firmware - 1.51. I must have submitted around 25 error messages and have frequently crashed out of both multiplayer and single player. I would like to complain to DICE.

jenjenten · 29-11-2013 10:00pm

did you guys download and install the 608mb patch....?, keyword - install.

Varik · 30-11-2013 12:24am

Other than few filled EU servers and the game not letting me in sometime, this game is great.

I'm on right now; Dreadaxe

There are several big issues with BF4 at the moment. I have also lost my campaign progress twice since I got it (finished it in PC). I decided to stop as it was becoming very frustrating. Weird thing is that Dice has decided to give us double XP in compensation for all the issues we are having but what the point if the game is still broken!

Unearthly · 30-11-2013 1:01am

My game was in Spanish when I first started it.

A quick Google taught me that you needed to switch your language settings from either English UK to English US or vice versa. Weird bug

aindriu80 · 30-11-2013 1:11am

I keep getting Error CE-34878-0 which promptly crashes BF4. Sounds like they don't know how PC architecture works.

Its a great game though, I only have been playing it 6 hours 9 minutes play time but it plays much better

heebusjeebus · 30-11-2013 9:27am

Has anyone any tips for someone who is a complete noob using a controller for a FPS?
I'm getting destroyed on BF4 online. Getting slightly better with each game but I'm just so slow at lining up a target.

Help a noob out please....

Keyboard and mouse?

Nemesis · 30-11-2013 9:32am

Keyboard and mouse is now possible?

I can never play against my kids in any fps because I'm such an old fart.

A keyboard and mouse might even up the odds.

bazzz · 01-12-2013 12:44am

Four CE-34878-0 error crashes in the last hour while on multiplayer on PS4 and yes the update is installed(before anyone mentions it).I give up :rolleyes:

Happened to me on the campaign end of 3rd level on hard, I'm half scared to start multiplayer from reports on here...

DUBLINHITMAN · 01-12-2013 2:03am

On it all day too

Just as you finished up with the aircraft carrier in the bridge ? I think thats where mine went belly up as well.

I keep getting the CE-34878-0 regularly but it keeps adding your stats even if you leave a game mid way AFAIK.

Yup,

Exact same spot as me so, came in off the boat into the aircraft carrier, ran up the stairs to the 3 lads and popped back to the menu screen with the error message, a royal pain in the bum....

Glico Man · 01-12-2013 3:39am

When this works, its absolutely brilliant. When it kicks you to the XMB or lags like crazy its frustrating as hell.

Had a few good games with Dreadaxe, Klair and tok this evening. One game myself and tok were just running back and forth between 2 flags as we kept and recapping both A and B. Good little battle, and by the time it was won and we moved up the map, the game was almost over. Nosebleeds all round when we finally got to the middle of the map

lertsnim · 01-12-2013 11:57am

Played it a bit last night. Was annihilated of course but I expected that. Will take a while to get used to vehicles and so on. Game didn't crash or anything else like that so happy out

Notorioux · 01-12-2013 12:12pm

is this game only crashing in cq mode or even to other modes as well?

Sean Quagmire · 01-12-2013 12:38pm

Lost all my campaign progress they need to sort this mess out.

Yeah I stop playing campaign mode because of that. I am gonna wait until they fix it before trying again..

All game modes are affected, however, it seems easier to get TDM for example than CQ. Although I have also noticed that sometimes I select CQ and I end up playing TDM for some reason

mozattack · 01-12-2013 2:23pm

Anyone get their headset working perfect?

rob808 · 01-12-2013 5:38pm

Rush game mode seems broken spawn trap in and bad spawn need to be balance out.

chat volume could be a bit higher, it's can be very loud on PS3 but on PS4 I need to have the game audio down a bit to hear.

Nothing a patch couldn't fix.

Also there's echos and reverb at times, it's hard to know where it's coming from.

Bad luck dude :S

I'm not going to try it again for a while.

Is anyone getting BF4 premium ? I had it the BF3 premium for the PS3 but I guess it has expired (Date Purchased: 15/06/2012) ?

Is there a date that you should get it ?

FireBreather · 02-12-2013 11:40pm

Anyone else getting this wired controller bug, where you play a game, go to the XMB go bck and your controller is frozen till you exit out of the game?

I bought it myself. China Rising DLC for Premium players is released tomorrow. Although I'd rather they fix the stream of issues and bugs before they bring out DLC. Like BF3, I suppose they might patch things as they roll out DLC, but I hope not though and get the problems fixed asap.

Had a similar issue when a round started. Wasn't able to turn my character. Strafing, shooting, crouch, grenades, equipment all worked fine, just couldn't turn left or right. Suicided and then it went back to normal.

Captain Chaos · 03-12-2013 12:01am

I'd like to know when the Second Assault DLC will be released for the PS4. Can't wait to unlock the F2000. The MTAR or X95 as its known now in the China Rising DLC will be a beast in close quarters. Thankfully I haven't had any crashes or bugs yet and my single player data is still intact even though I only played about half of it.

This is the same Arthur Gies that failed to mention micro transactions and awarded Forza a 9. The amount of decent gaming sites I could probably count on one hand and Polygon ain't one of them.

Their review of the PS4 was a joke. No mention of 1080p native resolution. No it was that you couldnt browse the xmb with a remote on the ps4 and you could on the xbone.... Which was then revealed to be a complete lie.

I hate them so much.

Their review of TLoU was a joke because the points they criticised were the points that 99.999999% of the world praised. I'd accept if they criticised one of the actual faults of the game like Quarter-to-three did in their 6/10 review.
