    does anyone else find that battlepacks keeping giving you unlocks for weapons you dont use.

    I've gotten more unlocks for the u-100 then any gun in the game.

    Guess which gun I have less then 10 kills with and simply dont use.

    *grumble*

    I was actually talking about this the other night. I have 9 unlocks for the u100 too, which I have never used.


    I'd just like to say one thing, Marksman ribbons can suck my balls. Seriously, 250 metres is so far out your worthless on all the maps.

    They will transfer.
    When you load BF4 on your PS4, a message will pop up on screen saying about the one time transfer. When you do that. Your stats will now be on your PS4 profile AND PS3 profile. It will now treat them as two separate consoles and say if you were level 50 on PS3 when you did the transfer, and you levelled up to 55 on PS4. You will still be level 50 on your PS3 profile. Comprende?

    Excellent thanks for that. Was hoping that I wouldn't have to go through all that again

    just FYI if you transfer your game PS3->PS4 you won't be able to play it on PS3 anymore

    Are you referring to the digital upgrade programme?

    I'm just referring to stats.

    You're still outside Smyths at 00:15!? :eek:

    When I got my Xbox One in Smyths last week I was in by 11:58 and out by 00:08! :P Granted, that was the Waterford store tho.

    This was Waterford too, was served by twelve thirty in the end

    It's random; I've seen reports of what others got in theirs and it doesn't match mine (2x50% boosts, 1x25% boost, SRR-61 20x scope, R2 suppressor for the u-100).

    Quick question on the XP boosts - my battle-back gave me a 50% 1 hour XP boost. Does it use those automatically the next time you go to play the game, or do you have to 'deploy' them before playing?

    You have to select it in the match. If you've a few of them, don't cancel one to use another as you'll lose it completely.

    Yeah you press the Start button and it will say on bottom what button to press depending on what console you use.

    They stack with the current xp boost. I went from 45 to 52 in eight games with boosts active.

    Yup, whilst it's double XP week. I like to use all my 100% XP boosts and get triple xp and 30,000 xp per medal! :D

    I can think you can now imagine how pointless Metro was with 64 players, given it had half the paths of Locker.

    I don't think Metro was as bad as Locker. There seemed to be a lot more flanking routes in Metro.

    Agreed, i can finally see why PC players mainly hated Metro so much now. Saying that Metro was good on 12 v 12 and so too is Locker, just a shame that you are on a good Conquest Large server and you come across this map whereby the next 20-30 mins of your life is wasted throwing grenades and ammo boxes.

    I'd say it would be even worse if the old revive mechanic was still in the game; never ending.

    It is a good way of levelling a class I done that multi talent badge on a 24/7 locker match but what really kills it is the glitches on c where people are up at a huge height and can't be hit

    Hey, I liked Metro. Yes, even the 64-player conquest large versions. Not everyone has a PC that can render ten square kilometers at 90fps y'know :D
    Besides, yes, it could bind up on the side stairs at B, but if you could push past that, the gameplay on the C and A flags were excellent.
    And it served as a way to let people level up their kit so they could compete on the other maps. So in a way, Metro was the most important map of them all (and that's why you'll see so many 24/7 Locker servers today...)

    Glitches? You mean when they hop out the upper window and onto the ledges? Just follow them or use the xm25 on them (that's what it was designed for)...

    Incidentally, you can hit them; but it's headshots only so on a pistols-only server, that tactic is a pain in the fundament and you pretty much have to fight up the stairs, out the window and flank them.

    Mind you, that aside, Locker becomes an absolute joy to play on a pistols-only server. Though the gits who keep using grenades on the one I use are really really irritating and half the time I'll jump on a grenade if they throw it (because if they kill me with it, they get killed or kicked if it's a repeat offence). I mean, it says "PISTOLS ONLY" right there in capital letters, how hard is that to grok?
