Battlefield 4 Suppression And Motion Blur Fix

HardwarePal : Suppression is something that developers at DICE have implemented in Battlefield 3, and it simulates fear when a player is being shot at. This suppression feature has been a reason for various discussions and controversies across the internet (especially when “geniuses” at DICE cranked up the suppression to the max in BF3).

The reason the slider doesn't allow you to turn it off is to ensure a level playing field. I think people have been ban hammered for messing with config files.

Miskonius4137d ago

Nope, this is a legit fix.
That's the beauty of the PC platform is that you can tweak whatever its available. There have been tweaks for Bf3 and so on and no one got banned. Even Bf4 battlelog moderator confirmed that there is nothing wrong with this. Now if some console players are feeling the buthurt, I cant really help with that...

S-T-F-U4137d ago

What has consoles got to do with anything here? Why even bring that up?

On point, I don't think this is a good thing. It gives an advantage to people against people who may not know it can be done and can't be selected in the in-game settings.

cyclindk4137d ago

He's just another of these senseless "side-takers..." it's a source of endless ignorant bigotry.

Z_-_D_-_34137d ago

You're really using the term "bigotry," to describe a gaming community conflict? Some of you N4G'ers/GAF'ers are a bit extreme.

nohopeinc4137d ago

The title implies that there is something wrong in reference to motion blur in the game when in fact the suppression is working as intended. So this is not a fix. DICE uses suppression to simulate the fear of being shot at, you turn of the blur and have perfect vision, you did not FIX it you simply cheated. Call it what it is.

Kleptic4137d ago

this video is completely misleading...

The 'blur' during suppression is just a visual effect...its NOT what pisses most people off...and this config file does nothing to help the real problem many have with it...

suppression adds a huge multiplier to accuracy deviation...and random recoil...to the person being suppressed...your bullets will pretty much come out sideways once suppressed...same as bf3, its just now only LMGs/DMRs/sniper rifles do it...there is no suppression from other primary weapons...and there is a much harder to use 'cover' ability, as you have to be in a squad that can stay alive...

so many people bitch and moan about motion blur...and if you're one of them, go ahead and do this...but it will NOT make you able to quickly counter enemies once suppressed...it'll just stay crystal clear as you struggle to hit the side of a building with return fire...cool, i guess...

Miskonius4137d ago

Oh God...
The most frustrating thing about suppression isnt the flinching (yes that's how its called) its the fact that you cant see anythi, who is shooting at you or where to run at. This helps a bit, its not the ultimate fix cause even if it was it would be called cheating, Comprende?

Kleptic4137d ago (Edited 4137d ago )

Comprende? What? I'm not even sure if your post was a correction to something, or just a random thought you just had...flinching? color me lost...

and you really have a hard time 'seeing' when suppressed? Its just a thin film of blur, and even then its mostly localized around the screen edges?...

Ninjamonkey824137d ago

Can't see he issue I've been using cfg tweaks seen Quake in LAN competitions to a certain degree. I know tons more that do the same that are off higher skill than me.

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.

-Foxtrot1131d ago

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

gamesftw2501130d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1129d ago

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

PapaBop1130d 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.

Inverno1130d 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

XiNatsuDragnel1131d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1130d ago

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

Pudge1028881130d ago (Edited 1130d 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

pr33k331130d 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.

Pudge1028881130d 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_D3TH1130d 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.
