Guys, Battlefield 4 is going to be awesome. For those who didn't get a chance to watch the EA Livestream of Gamescom 2013, I'll make sure to post the gameplay footage they showed of BF4 and all the levolution they described that is included here ASAP. By the way, the second dlc that's coming out (Second Assault, I think, with the revised BF3 maps) I saw a glimpse of Caspian Border which looked beautiful (the grass was wheaty and brown instead of life-like, spring-green.
Trust me, you miss a lot of extra clips and shots if you don't watch the stream.

Boats have TVs? (01:11:20)

I'm interested...


Also, with the amount of naval vessels in the game, I'd be in favour of replacing the soundtrack with Alestorm. :wink:

Yup. Also, I like what they did to the theme. BF3 didn't really have the extensive BF theme included entirely - just that wub-wub. The Battlefield 4 theme sounds awesome as they took the original BF theme and based it around the BF3 wub-wub instead of vice-versa.

Quick Things I Jotted Down.

All things Battlefield 4 (everything I notice and jot down):
Starting with the Levolution gameplay - level off basements/metro, flood urban streets to drive in attack boats, level skyscrapers, drop balconies for new routes, turn on gillards to block wheeled-vehicles, close shuttergates to block routes to key choke-points, CLOSE THE TRAIN CAR DOOR TO LOCK AN ENEMY IN WITH A LIVE GRENADE, metal detectors and car alarms give away positions to potential threats, shut down the power in buildings for night vision advantages and render elevators useless, break extinguishers for small smoke and disorientation against enemies, dynamic waves and weather, timed events to change the landscape (battleship breaking through an island and with it a typhoon of violent waves), wind turbines breaking to crash down, factory chimneys crumbling apart, railcar ropes snapping off, DAM BREAKING.
Premium Video - Second Assault so far I saw holds Gulf of Oman, Operation Metro, and Caspian Border.
Paracel Storm Gameplay - submarines(?) [the opening shows the camera coming from under water - I can only hope], attack boats, bomb carrier gamemode but it looked like it still had "flag" objectives labeled [each team had 3: A, B, C. I'm guessing teams have to find and pick up bombs, then plant them in the enemy areas], even with the flat landscape you still have vertical gameplay (soldiers fighting on com towers and near wind turbines), C-130 as said would be in basically every conquest large map [the C-130 showed 4 seats - 3 gunners and 1 driver], in-game voip can be seen (green boxes squad members, blue starred boxes as the commander), the music is awesome, J-20 and J-11 Chinese jets, attack boats with TV missiles, air radar and flares, base range and range finder on sniper scopes, destructible bridges, again dynamic weather and waves, battleship timed event, wave hopping, soldiers can again be seen carrying the bomb to the enemy points, China Rising mysterious gunship.

Would be interesting to see how many GCers will get BF4. Have there been any polls about it yet?

No, but on http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/preorder/ it shows which friends have pre-ordered. Of mine only ten have but all ten are from GC.

I have mine pre-ordered through Gamestop so, friends or no, I won't show up on the BF4 battlelog preorder page. :(

They are buffing the support but he was certainly not OP in bf3.
