How can a bunch of professional/qualified men and women be this incompetent?

venom063736d ago

people are so lame on this N4G site... they are SO comsumed with anything negative concerning BF4 and run as FAST as they can to put up a lame-ass negative article about ONE issue in this huge patch that fixed multiple issues.. WHERE'S THE ARTICLE TALKING ABOUT ALL THE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE OVERALL EXPERIENCE??? oh that's right, that'll be too much like right for someone to do an article like that. BTW, the devs have already said that a fix is already in the works for that 1 issue.

@venom

Calm down bro, i have over 110 hours played on BF4 on PS4. The game is great when it works. Doesn't change the fact that EA and DICE are for the most part incompetent.

Bugs and Glitches to rival Bethesda, releasing an incomplete game, minimal QA testing, patches that do the opposite of what they are supposed to, unbalanced guns, campaign data gone missing....the list goes on.

Everyone else makes games with a fraction of the amount of problems this had, why can't DICE/EA? It's not as if they have an overly complicated/large game world like Skyrim or GTA5 to pin the blame on either....they rushed it out to release before CoD and are now feeling the backlash, and rightfully so.

@Venom

Probably because most of the time I Play, despite there being improvements, the game still crashes from time to time.

The game was rushed, PERIOD. These issues are what, 3-4 months now??

The game has already been praised by reviewers and MANY WHEN IT WORKS.

donman13736d ago

Damn...They fix something and break something else. Makes me feel this game was rushed to market when it needed a few more months to get it right.

csreynolds3736d ago

It was. Word from credible sources is EA knew this game wasn't ready and shipped it anyway. I feel a bit sorry for DICE in a way, but then they release a patch that, to borrow your words, breaks something else. I mean WTF?

I'm currently shoving this under the noses fo anyone at DICE I can in hope SOMEONE will notice and take action:

JoGam3736d ago

So glad I got my Platinum in BF4 this game was a pain to play with all the issues. I moved on to Killzone SF

GarrusVakarian3736d ago

Lol yeah. This made me laugh:

"I'm kinda scared to put the disc in".

Majin-vegeta3736d ago (Edited 3736d ago )

Don;t think the update has gone live on PS4 yet.I tried but didn;t give me an update.

Edit:Nvm it just went live.

PR_FROM_OHIO3736d ago

Damn DICE and EA are just made for each other smfh!!!!!! BF4 will be the last game i will ever buy from EA what a joke!!

bohemian 233736d ago

Welcome to the future of gaming! Release broken games, fix them later, or not?

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.

-Foxtrot756d ago

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

gamesftw250755d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface755d ago

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

PapaBop755d 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.

Inverno755d 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

XiNatsuDragnel756d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps755d ago

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

Pudge102888755d ago (Edited 755d 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

pr33k33755d 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.

Pudge102888755d 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_D3TH755d 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.
