Hopefully not too much downtime! I plan to play late into Saturday morning. Though, if this fixes the crashes, then life is good.

MWong3786d ago

I don't care how much downtime there is as long as it'll fix the crashes and rubber banding. I think the OHK was patched yesterday on the PS4 & PC. They really need to bring back Squad-Ups.

Dewitt3786d ago (Edited 3786d ago )

This!! I am tired of the frame-locking, the random crashes, deleting the campaign save after playing, the awful server latency at times. EA should have stopped being stubborn and just used MS's dedicated servers.

Let me say that this is a great game, but these crashes, campaign problems, and not being able to enjoy the game are just ridiculous.

FullMetalTech3786d ago

Yeah i dont understand the logic in them not adding in a squad party.

Gazondaily3785d ago

Man the current bug is so annoying. If you go to dashboard and come back to battlefield, the game becomes unresponsive to your button presses. So frustrating. It's happening to my mate too.

GarrusVakarian3786d ago (Edited 3786d ago )

Im going to be out later today so hopefully it will be back up by the time i get home because this game is so much fun, i love playing it. I like conquest.....but rush is where its at for me. The feeling of going for the objective while having only a few tickets remaining is a massive adrenaline rush << see what i did there?

I praise my lucky stars that i haven't been having any issues. So many people have said the game is broken for them, but apart from 3 crashes it's been 100% fine for me. Loving this game on PS4, which i never thought i would seeing as i hated BF3 for last gen. The improved framerate and player count is just what this game needed for me to like it.

Callediceman3786d ago

same here, I've only had about 2-4 crashes the entire time i have played it(about 10-15 hours). oh and a few games of having the wierd sound glitch, annoying but not game breaking. hopefully this fixes the issues for everyone.

famoussasjohn3786d ago

They can take all the time they need to fix up this game. As long as I'm not getting booted out of games or having crashes every few matches then I'm fine with some down time.

3-4-53786d ago

Game has only crashed/froze on me like 4-5 times, and been mostly enjoyable.

Hoping maybe this helps with frame rate or something.

It seems some maps it runs so smooth and others I get 10 less FPS.

UnholyLight3785d ago

Need the random crashes, texture pop in, and severe sound loss problems fixed.

Then this game can truly be great :)

I cant wait for that day

Thank god i don't buy online focus games from EA.

Dark113786d ago

Well you cared enough to reply.

jmac533786d ago

"connection issues to be expected". Has anything changed since launch.

dcj05243786d ago

This why I always wait 3 months before buying a multi player focused game.

Detoxx3786d ago

And then after 3 months you start whining that everybody is better/has better guns then you.

famoussasjohn3786d ago

Then he can spend $30 to unlock them at all once he loads the game up lol. Still will have to grind for the expansion guns.

MorePowerOfGreen3786d ago

Too bad BF4 doesn't use the netcode of Killer Instinct. I wish there was a way for Dice to use MSFT's servers.

Drekken3786d ago

Can you please post a picture of your Microsoft paycheck? Killer Instinct isn't perfect... Look at the video above me.

Plus, even if it was perfect you are comparing the netcode of a 2 person fighter to a 3D 64 team multiplayer. You really can't be serious.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot751d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250750d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface750d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop750d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno750d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel751d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps750d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888750d ago (Edited 750d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33750d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888750d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH750d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
