    Just bought BF4 and the upgrade there.

    Regarding the file size of the upgrade:

    "it will download 6 gigs first so u can play the campaign only. the rest gets downloaded and installed separate. almost 2 hours for me and the campaign is ready but only 31% of the full game."

    I checked my system storage management and it is 38GB and is currently installing.

    E45 for BF4 on PS4 is pretty sweet.

    Dumb question alert!

    I don't have a PS3. Can I still buy the PS3 version of BF4 through the Playstation Store website and then do the PS3 to PS4 upgrade?

    Yes. It ties BF4 to your PSN ID, not your (non-existent) PS3 so fire away.

    Would go for it myself only that the file size would probably cost me with my isp.

    This is a bit off topic but is E fibre truly unlimited with the download caps?

    Definitely off topic but yes, there is usually a "fair usage" limit. Check small print to see what it is.

    No, only UPC and Sky have truly unlimited download caps. E fibre have a fair usage policy with their "unlimited" packages, don't know what the limit is but it's in the small print like UPC's used to be when they claimed unlimited is was around 500Gb per month.

    What's the error code?

    If it was as big an issue as you seem to be making it out to be, I'm sure more people on here would be complaining too.

    I couldn't be happier with mine.

    Just finished veteran on Resogun, the final phase of the last boss is a piece of work with his waves of bullets. I'm played tonnes of Cave bullet hell shooters over the years, and honestly at its most extreme Resogun is a match for some of 'em. And that's before you move onto Master and the dreaded suicide bullets! Housemarque have learned from the best. Now to attempt a 1CC.

    Does anyone else find the final panel on the first part of the second level boss a pain in the ass on veteran? The wheel spins to the other side before you can get to it! You seem to have to either a) have an overdrive in reserve or b) suicide it (perhaps a boost if you're lucky).

    Yeah it's the games....unless it's some crazy hardware problem that your having but that seems pretty dam unlikely.

    Luckily I haven't had any crashes, although I haven't started BF4 yet :P

    It's really doing my head in at the moment! Happens more in the afternoon/evening than morning but maybe that just coincidence.

    This might sound a wee bit stupid, but can I play back video files on this like on the PS3?

    I got the Killzone bundle and looking to trade it in. Where's the best trade in value? Anyone have any issues trading it in with the not for resale on the box?

    Boost, overdrive and bombs are your best friends (the bullet cancelling properties of boost are a literal lifesaver)! Focus on pure survival rather than score chasing, I'm not sure what number the extra life and bomb humans are but if you're struggling just focus on them. The level 3 and 4 bosses are really easy, so it's just a matter of getting to that point and it should be smooth sailing, even if you're short on lives and bombs.

    Was trying for the 15X trophy too.
    Gave up on that and now on final level.
