Battlefield 4 – The Land Of Broken Games And Broken Promises

Dylan Z of iGR writes: "Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful game. That released on October 29th, aboard PC, Xbox 360, and PS3. No, this isn’t Gilligan’s Island, but it sure as hell is a shipwreck."

or the land of the future, where quality doesn't mean sht... one way to support pirating games :P

frostypants3770d ago (Edited 3770d ago )

People will use anything to try to justify stealing.

Kyosuke_Sanada3770d ago (Edited 3770d ago )

EA advertising a fully working game for 60 bucks.....
Said company sells lemons at launch instead.

Pirating this game is like robbery in a den of thieves. Nobody is right......

ginsunuva3770d ago (Edited 3770d ago )

Why would you pirate a game that doesn't work?

Why not ignore it?

Rob Hornecker3770d ago (Edited 3770d ago )

What a true understatement this story is!

I went on this morning to play the xbox 360 copy,joined a server and found that my loadouts had reset to the begining! ACK!!! Rebooted and everything was back to normal as far as normal goes for BF4!

Also saw that the event for premium members ( 2xp ) has been postponed till further notice. This not good!

frostypants3770d ago (Edited 3770d ago )

Loadouts (and ranks) temporarily reseting was a problem in BF3 as well...and BFBC2 if I recall correctly.

Rob Hornecker3769d ago

It is indeed shades of BF3! If I recall right ,that when you went into a non-ranked private server,it would reset all the loadouts back to there start.

So I'm starting to wonder if there testing out private servers before they are released to the world? Thank you for your reply,I was glad to find out that it wasn't just me.

GentlemenRUs3770d ago

The first ever AAA title to be unfixable...

Detoxx3770d ago

It's already fixed. Nice troll attempt.

GentlemenRUs3770d ago

Sure? My campaign still gets deleted so nice attack there...

Gh05t3770d ago

Battlefield is far from fixed. Just because you may be having an enjoyable experience does not mean everyone is.

CrossingEden3770d ago

It is definitely far from fixed.

Thatlalala3770d ago

@detox nice troll attempt.

frostypants3770d ago (Edited 3770d ago )

It's not fixed. It's at least at almost to the point of being beta-quality. My guess is it will be more or less fixed by when they should have released it in the first place: February or so.

Yep, afraid to go back to SP, play 90% of it then it get's deleted .. Tisk tisk tisk..
Serisouly the worst thing that has happened to me in a long time .. I usually get the good end of it all ..but thanks to dice,not anymore lol.. super lame

..I still crash from time to time which is very unacceptable

ChipChipperson3770d ago

If it helps and you want the multiplayer weapons, you could do what I did. Play one level all the way through, quit back to the PS4 menu and upload your saved game to the PS Cloud AND onto a USB drive. It's tedious, I know, but it's one of the only guaranteed ways to keep your most recent saved data.

I haven't experienced the single player data loss personally, but it doesn't hurt to be prepared.

SnotyTheRocket3770d ago

Other than being disconnected from 64 man servers, I haven't had any problems with the PS4 version.

BlingBlaine3770d ago

O gee crashing to dashboard, not that big o deal huh?

Lool complacency rules

SnotyTheRocket3770d ago

Yeah, ive never crashed. At all. Keep blowing this out of proportion

KyRo3770d ago

Oh look, another dramatic article about BF4.

The game is more than playable. Yes it has a few niggles, like every other game that gets released. Some of these articles are going on as if the game is completly broken to the point that it's unplayable.

Since getting it on release the only problems I've had is my campaign resetting and getting booted to the dashboard on PS4 and that only happened once...

Detoxx3770d ago

Yeah I don't get it either.

The game has been fixed since the last patch and people still call it broken just to hate.

boeso3770d ago

Must be easy caring for just one person.

Gh05t3770d ago

The game is at many times exactly what you are saying.

Unplayable!

There are many times I try playing and it will not find any games or matchmake me into a mode I didn't click on or want to play anyways. There are many times after 20 minutes of frustration I just set it down and walk away.

BlingBlaine3770d ago

Oh look another cod kid who only plays tdm or domination.

OF COARSE THESE ISSUES ARENT PLAGUING 16 MAN GAMES.

THEY ARE EFFECTING 64 PLAYER CONQUEST!!!!!!!!!

You fanbois say the game is fine yet you dont actually play the mode that is borked.

Unless you bought bf4 for deathmatch, you got screwed.

Yes cq64 is still horribly broken.

Nuff said fanbitchs

sgtGanGreen3770d ago

Point finger at better MP shooter

frostypants3770d ago

Well since it more or less works right, I'd say BF3...

DaCajun3770d ago

BF:Bad Company 2 was the last best BF game

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.

-Foxtrot761d ago

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

gamesftw250760d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface759d ago

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

PapaBop760d 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.

Inverno760d 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

XiNatsuDragnel761d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps760d ago

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

Pudge102888760d ago (Edited 760d 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

pr33k33760d 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.

Pudge102888760d 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_D3TH760d 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.
