    I think this 2 tier society between premium and regular is hilarious. double xp this weekend if you've premium. tough t1tties if you could only afford the regular broken game.

    Well in fairness they had a double xp event last week for non premium members aswell. Is that not the whole point of "premium" that you get stuff that you dont normally get with the standard retail version. Dont forget that premium members bought the regular broken game and also paid another 40 or 50 quid on top of that.

    Metro is a disaster if ur fighting up the escalators ,too much grenade and lvg spamming

    So pretty much BF3 then...?

    Still can't understand why not Grand Bizaar or Seine Crossing....better than Firestorm. And Gulf of Oman is a BF2 map....

    I'd have much preferred Karkand from that expansion. I remember playing on an Oman only server, and after maybe the 3rd game I got completely sick of it. I really don't like that map anymore due to overplaying it. Of course it's my own fault, but there isn't really any defining character about the map. It feels very bland to me.

    Caspian I get, because it was a good map for conquest. Firestorm I really don't understand. No one seems to enjoy that map no matter what game mode.

    For about the last 100 hours of BF3, I played essentially nothing but Firestorm. C4 whorebags at their best :D

    Agreed.

    Caspian Border I get - it was one of the flagship maps of BF3. Metro as well - regardless of our individual personal thoughts on it, it was played by a crap tonne of people. Firestorm was, and remains for me, nothing special. What I think BF4 is crying out for are some urban maps the like of which Seine Crossing or Grand Bazaar were. Firestorm like maps in BF4 come a dime-a-dozen. I'm not saying it's not a good map on the face of it but what does it contribute to Battlefield 4?

    Back to Karkand was promoted around BF2 maps re-imagined for BF3. Fair enough. So why make Gulf of Oman again for the third time? It's not a BF3 map so why is it being included in a DLC that aims to bring the BF3 experience to BF4?! Can't understand it.

    But yes, Karkand was better than Oman IMO. Definitely a classic.

    PC will have no explosive servers so it will make it playable

    And no word on when a new patch for the soundloop bug is coming out :(

    Right , one of the guys on teamspeak was being affected by this sound loop bug ( but only on certain maps ) he read in forums tonight that one guy fixed his problem by turning on vsync , he went on , checked his settings and his vsync was off , he turned it on and now it is working fine for him . Might be worth a go for some .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,038 ✭✭✭✭Sparks


    Tried it, no joy I'm afraid.

    Started using the SRAW recently. So much fun hitting a chopper and seeing the pilot lose control or killing roof top snipers from miles away:)

    Just a heads up maybe yous allready know about finding the best server for you through battlelog even if your on a console .
    Battlelog . Multiplayer servers
    make sure to install plugins and you can find a low ping server.


    Maybe im a noobeee
    hope it helps

    Have played a bit this morning, just re-skinned BF3 maps by the looks of it. Oman is the exact same, firestorm is darker. Have not played the other two yet. Enjoying so far

    It's Caspian and Metro that seem changed more so. In particular Caspian.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 3,096 Mod ✭✭✭✭ktulu123


    Played Metro there, exact same. It's still a fcuking shocking map. Looking forward to playing Caspian

    Anyone recommend a decent second hand or good value new GPU for less than 200? Currently run a AMD HD 6950. Rest of my PC is solid so no issues with what can go into it.

    Looking forward to the Metro CLUSTERFVCK. :rolleyes:
