17th Battlefield 4 Update - DICE Addresses Flickering On Multi GPU Systems

HardwarePal : There you go, the 17th Battlefield 4 patch update in less than 45 days since launch. On one hand it says something about DICE's dedication to fixing their game but on the other hand its shows the state of their product on release. If we look at it in its current state we have alot more updates for Battlefield 4 coming soon.

So whats the magic number? 35?

yezz4203d ago

Really interested to see if they can break something like 60 before the next Battlefield.. This is ridiculous :D

It's so frustraiting to see this kind of thing happen, because the game itself is great when it works but there are so many issues that it takes my fun away :(

venom064203d ago

why the hell is it ridiculous if it's fixing the game?? People on N4G are getting past the point of idiotic.. you whine if stuff ISN'T fixed, you whine if stuff IS fixed... good lord.. if you enjoy the game fine, play it, it's an AWESOME experience... if you dont like it, freakin go play CoD and count the number of patches IW releases.

bohemian 234203d ago

@venom06 We want the game to work, I see you on other articles defending the game like its perfect. I love the game, but I don't love Dawnbreaker freezing it up every time. The game has problems, pretending it doesn't, isn't going to fix them. Pull your mouth off of Dice's Co*k!

@venom06

HAHAHa, I'm not complaining that the game is being fixed, I'm complaining that the game shouldn't be this broken from the beginning.. The amount of patches the game has had already refers to problems.

I like the game when it works but half the time it bloody doensn't!

zeal0us4204d ago

This is getting ridiculous. This has damage both Dice,Battlefield and especially EA's reputation.

Fishy Fingers4203d ago (Edited 4203d ago )

Has it really? BF4 still seems to be the game all my mates are playing on both next gen systems and PC.

The game is riddled with issues, yes it's an annoyance, but it's still better than playing COD :)

ZodTheRipper4203d ago

Honestly I liked BFBC2 better than BF3 and BF4... I think both CoD and BF suck this year.

Goro4203d ago

There's hardly a decent reputation for EA to lose in the first place.

rbluetank4204d ago

the SP save is still broken. it might be better to just put this game away. I should not have my hard drive space ate up by these update. these updates still leave my game broken.

SnakeCQC4204d ago

Why is dice getting soo much more crap than other devs over this? bethesda still havent fixed massive bugs in their older games like fallout 3 and oblivion, activision reuse the the same engine etc for each of all of their games(not sure about ghost).

pompombrum4203d ago (Edited 4203d ago )

Well I've bought many Bethesda games and shamefully, my fair share of COD titles.. all of which have been completely playable from day one for me personally.

I sympathize with DICE I really do because imho, the fingers should be pointed at EA. EA are getting crap because they released what I'd consider to be an Alpha product at full retail price. This is something you expect an indie company with budget issues to do, not some supposed AAA quality publisher.

annus4203d ago

Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen a single comment on Activision using the same engine for every game...

pompombrum4203d ago

EA do it also with their sports games every year. They'd do it with Battlefield too if it was on top and beating COD in sales.

PudgeySan4203d ago

In a previous thread I stated I had no issues with this game and in fact I don't.. That was until I decided to try the Single player campaign in which I did from start to finish.. and about 7 crashes.. The multi player is very stable but the campaign.. Holy Fugging Christ is she a crash fest.

Salooh4203d ago (Edited 4203d ago )

Bubble for that awesome picture. Look at him !! How did i managed to live without a cat like that >.< . I wanna kill my self T_T ..

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.

-Foxtrot1183d ago

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

gamesftw2501182d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1181d ago

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

PapaBop1182d 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.

Inverno1182d 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

XiNatsuDragnel1183d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1182d ago

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

Pudge1028881182d ago (Edited 1182d 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

pr33k331182d 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.

Pudge1028881182d 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_D3TH1182d 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.
