First Impressions

[mrBLUE9]

The first round I tried to play I got the red screen of death. Will try later with the beta drivers.

[Nix]

Was playing on lancang dam. Flying chopper... getting instantly 2 hits without any locks from one side of the map to the other by the tunguska or whatever it was kind of op.

That´s the new type of intelligent missile. It doesnt require a lock and search automatically for it target.

You mean radar guided missiles? No lock on warning?
I hope to God that's a bug.

Managed to fix the red screen issue with the beta drivers. Second round I play the server crashes. I'm done for now, will wait till they fix all the issues.

NONONO.
If you don't show up tomorrow I'll cry my heart out since I can't make it for the 9th.

Let me present you the finest of the viking technology:
Missiles which instantly lock you and you get destroyed before you can press your countermeasures button.GG WP.

The unlocks feels very fast for vehicles, I got all the MAA unlocks in 2 rounds and was 1 kill short of getting all the attack boat unlocks in one round.

I will! Gonna play until I run out of patience.

That and the MBT LAW being awful made the only round I played yesterday an armor fest.

I don't really see why everyone says the LAW is so terrible. Sure it doesn't do as much damage as an rpg, but it reloads twice as fast and you really don't have to put in the effort to aim it. And it can lock onto things.

This is your answer.

Due to lag/ping you have a very narrow window of opportunity to activate the countermeasures (since now flares dont work at close range). You dont get a warning till it´s too late.

Q: does the LAW tracks air vehicles?

A: no

Btw, in BF3 flares would also not work properly at close range.

It's the damage output really. If you have to shoot 4 or 5 times to down or disable a armor piece chances are you're not gonna make it. They just rush me when I'm with the LAW, since I can't cause enough damage fast enough. I guess you have to play way more conservative with it.

Lvlcap actually knows what he's talking about for once. ;P

[matsif]

just beat the campaign since single player runs at least semi-stable for me. once again, another generic modern fps storyline that has basically just been the same rehashed crap since cod4.

[Necromancer]

haha, in the "waiting time" between BF3 and BF4 launch i played COD:MW3. i swear i had a Déjà vu. "i remember being in these offices". "this submarine is very familiar" etc...
probably the same scenes from COD:BO2 or MW2. Campaign story sucks. but the fact you get a weapon for the multiplayer based on your final decision, and that you have to replay everything from the start to unlock the other 2 suck balls.

[StarfisherEcho]

Yeah the campaign was bleh. I was really pissed/sad

Spoiler: show

when Dima died

and I died about five times before my game decided I had made the dam jump correctly. That was insanely frustrating. It just refused to let me grab the ladder. Still no idea what I did different the time it finally worked.
