    Nope. I want me some proper vehicle combat......where the occupants obey correct motor safety and keep all arms and legs inside at all times :D

    That counts me out being inside any vehicle you are driving so as I usually end up falling out of moving vehicles and die instantly! :pac: lol

    On the flip side though, less COD noobs to destroy :(

    Most of them were sitting in the bases with their snipers hanging out. I'm pretty sure you will still have plenty of noobs on BF4 to kill, running around like headless chickens!

    Quote from the Road Safety Authority;

    • Lane 1 – You should always use this lane for normal driving. Stay in this lane unless you are overtaking.
    • Lane 2 – You should only use this lane for overtaking. You must move back to lane 1 once you have finished overtaking and it is safe to do so. you can also move into lane 2 to allow vehicles coming from your left to join the motorway.
    • Lane 3 – You should only use this lane if traffic in lanes 1 and 2 is moving in queues and you need to overtake or make room for merging traffic. Again, you should move back to lane 1 as soon as it is safe to do so.
    When overtaking, only move between two lanes at a time. For example, to move from lane 1 to lane 3, first move into lane 2 and wait to move to lane 3 until it is safe to do so

    Just to clarify

    I am going to stuck my ore on here.

    Personally I am having a great laugh with Hardline, and I don't see what the problem is. The game is sufficiently different to BF but so similar enough that I can pick up and play with no need to learn new button configurations.

    It is obviously less vehicle orientated to BF but it is meant to be of course. The hit reg is sweet and satisfying and I think Heist is class.

    Will I get 800 hours out of it? No

    But when most people just keep playing BF4 vanilla maps I welcome another set of maps gladly at this stage.

    Yeah the lack of varied servers is abysmal to be honest. Custom server admins won't run Ranked servers cos nobody looks for them, despite the fact they offer the exact server rotations most players long for. DICE need to set up a few Official servers with vanilla AND dlc maps, just like BF3

    EA should hold a poll of fav maps then do an official server rotating them!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭mozattack


    Hotwire is different but ****. I got 6,500 points for driving around in circles.

    Skill!

    That is twice as many points as a decent round in Heist.

    Perfect for boosters or tryhards.

    I will give it one more go

    They did a poll for the Second Assault dlc. Operation Firestorm was 9th but still got in ahead of Damavand Peak, Seine Crossing and Grand Bazaar. Not even a sniff of Karkand getting in. DICE seemingly don't care for fan votes :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭mozattack


    The car physics are great though, really good.

    Personally love the zip lines which are lying around too. Good idea.

    What I'd do for an AT mine!!!

    I loved rush on Damavand, it was the only rush game I played. I have not played a single rush game on BF4 since I got it at launch.

    Played about 5 hours today so now in good position to comment.

    - hotwire is a good laugh, maybe something to play once in a while but it is too easy to accumulate points

    - heist is quality, every game seems different and it really fits the theme

    - the gun play is FAR better than BF4, so snappy, the recoil is great on the ARs, the sniper rifles are unreal fun: I have more kills with the Scout Elite today than in BF4 already!

    - I like the way the medic can't drop down medi packs as often as BF4, makes it is decision to drop now or wait

    - I actually don't miss vehicles strangely enough, you can pop into a car and mow lads down once in a while

    - No lock on weapons...apart from pick ups. Enuf said!

    - Time to kill is fine but the hit receiving indicators seem a little delayed

    - Class balance seems great, I used the classes evenly and didn't feel out of place anytime

    - The class specific side arms is a masterstroke, makes recon more viable as they are the only ones with automatic sidearms

    I love it so far and definite purchase


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,580 ✭✭✭✭Riesen_Meal


    I had a few games of it over the past few days, only up to level 10 : it's basically an arcadey kind of BF, obviously not a real BF game, very fast and frenetic and COD like in some ways but with BF controls....

    I won't pick it up in a hurry, and definitely not at full price but if I saw it in a bargain bin for 20 quid I'd give it a go.... :)

    Great to hear you are enjoying it, and I know a lot of people who are loving it too especially gamemode Heist. But just a point on the guns. Having the hit detection spot on is great progress and that is how BF4 should've been. But i like BF4 and the gun physics there, just the hit detection needed to be improved and still does. I really like the realistic bullet drop physics for the guns and in particular sniper rifles there. It makes it so rewarding when you finally get a long distance kill. And its one of the reasons i switched from COD, along with having vehicles. I can get into a vehicle and vary my gameplay any time i want to. Of course i still get destroyed in a one on one tank battle or in a chopper but its a steep learning curve which i am still on. lol

    I'm sure its nice to get a break from BF4 and Hardline seems to be giving that to BF players. But to me it should have been an add-on to BF4 rather than being a separate game. Like Zombies mode in COD. If they did it that way it would have been better than expecting people to pay €70 for it. In my opinion its not worth that.

    Hardlines is basically the cod fix, people who were bad at bf4 will love hardlines, you don't have to think much and not so much ptfo as the maps are that small you only have to walk for 5 seconds and you're in a hot zone, the sniper rifles have been given an upgrade to pretty much gaurantee a one hit kill with damn all drop, no thinking there either. The vehicles are basically paper models, super easy to wipe out even with trip mines on the road. this reminds me of the vietnam expansion for bad company, new theme, weapons and modes, but not worth a full game title, specially at €70. I'd hate to think how bad this game would have been without the bf4 cte.

    I'm fairly confident Battlefield 5 will knock everything outta the park. It's not going to be made for the older consoles so they won't have to tone anything down or make compromises regarding content/quality. DICE admitted it several times that old gen consoles held them back from making the game they wanted, even during BF3, let alone BF4 so I'm cautiously optimistic.
    Sure BF4 is still too Battlefieldy to attract all the COD kiddies(fortunately). That's where Hardline comes in, it's the gateway drug for the franchise. I said it months ago that I wouldn't touch the damn game. To me it looks like a horrendously watered down and twitchy version of a Battlefield game and I've seen nothing from the beta to sway my opinion. Let's be honest though, it's a demo. The full game launches in 6 weeks so they ain't gonna be making wholesale changes at this stage. I've still seen trade kills, randomly falling over dead, false reloads, dying from 5 foot drops, super arcady driving and going around in circles for points......really???

    I'm just crossing my fingers Insurgency comes over to the PS4.
