The Battlefield 4 Beta Hasn’t been running in the smoothest of ways for many PC users, and the devs at EA DICE have been hard at work to solve or at least mitigate the issues, as Frostbite Technical Director Johan Andersson explained today.
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.
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.
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
Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.
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
if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.
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.
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
The shooter genre is one of the most beloved videogame genres in the gaming community, and rightfully so. From DOOM Eternal to Battlefield 4, passing through The Outer Worlds, the Xbox Game Pass has a lot to offer when it comes to amazing shooter experiences. Come check out some great shooter games available on Xbox Game Pass!
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.
KeenGamer: "Sometimes a game starts out as a buggy mess and we all just stop and think, “that definitely could have spent a bit more time in the oven”. This is the case for these 5 games which infamously marked their place in recent game memory."
one of the most annoying things for me getting to run properly is having the game stay in full screen mode. Whenever I first launch the game through the battlefield 4 webpage, the game never goes full screen, I always end up with a windowed screen. You would think it would be as easy as hitting Alt-Enter (Full screen toggle), but no. It ends up taking forever for me to get it set up right.
But it's a Beta so I cut them some slack.
Beta testing the game engine doesn't happen a few weeks before it hits retail. They had to have known of the poor performance in win7 and released it anyway. Doesn't sound good.
I want more, realistic destruction (not real, but realistic from a gameplay perspective).
Jeeps need to take damage where they are hit! Blow open the roof and sides, maybe the infantry inside survive maybe not, but they are exposed to fire.
Same for tanks and every other vehicle.
I want to see metal deformation and so on.
I want a jet ski or boat to sink if the bullets are hitting the bottom section enough for it to lose buoyancy.
I want to be able to jump on a tank and NOT automatically slide off and freaking cut open that hatch with a blow torch and drop a grenade inside. (I torch tanks all the time I just feel dumb doing it... blowing up a tank with a little hand torch)
Call of Duty 3 did it (more or less) and Titan Fall is doing stuff..
STEP UP YOUR GAME BATTLEFIELD!!!
The beta has been running mostly smooth for me on the PC. One big issue I had was a tank round to the cockpit of a helicopter did absolutely nothing. Even the guy I shot commented to me how he was not phased one bit. I know that will be fixed.
