    1st minute or so of this real life Russian Special Forces video have 2 different Bots with LMG & RPGs. Theres also a bunch of lads with tactical shields that are a bit smaller that the US versions, probably for quick close quarter entry.

    Also an Ifrit for ARMA3 people.

    Right so this is Lumpini Garden in Bangkok, Thailand. I'm guessing something along the lines of the park area in Metro with a few enterable buildings.

    This is Pearl Market in Beijing, China. Looks like CQ.

    HongQiao_postcard.jpg

    And this is the Juche Tower in Pyongyang, North Korea (the same tower behind the two soldiers in the above Dragons Teeth photo). Guess this will be the Propaganda map.

    No idea what Sunken Dragon could be but a Google search of "floating restaurant" throws up all kinds of crap including this.....so....we'll see. :)

    What's that in the last screen?

    What I'm wondering also!

    Is it the nuke I wonder?

    The M part of MKV diidn't mean that one thing shot many things, but that you could put many of the KVs onto the one rocket. Like MIRV warheads.

    Agreed but it has to be defending against a nuke or warhead of some sort

    Imagine using that yoke on the bastardisation snipers in the hills


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,038 ✭✭✭✭Sparks


    Or they're fecking with you and it's just a cutscene of a levolution event.
    Personally, I think the tickrate tweaking news from the CTE is probably something better to be looking forward to. Sounds like it's making a major impact on the problems.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    Someone said sorry to me tonight knowing he shot me and i got behind something and died.

    pleasant chap, sometimes i want to say the same to others.

    See the CTE as our labs environment for BF. Glad to see this review of our netcode work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcfhPHXvyyk


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,486 ✭✭✭miju


    Wouldnt take anything that paid EA monkey says seriously.

    Stopped listening to what he was saying when he said you dont get shot around corners and IF you do your only barely around the corner on the CTE :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

    I disagree, the lack of deaths when you get around a corner is one of the most noticeable things with the CTE. I've been playing CTE and normal over the past week and it feels great in the those situations where from experience you expect to drop dead after making it around a corner but instead you can safely hide. Last night the CTE wasn't running too well on one of the servers that I was on but it is a test environment.

    The one catch with the high tick rate is that if you have a poor connection you might have to set the client-server tick rate to medium or low in your settings.

    For a game that was released last november, only sorting out the fact that you get shot around corners is a joke at this stage. I hope someone writes a book someday about what actually went down between the developer / publisher and who made the call to release the game in such a state.

    Or the sound bug that's been there since BF3..

    BF3 has the same tick rate.

    And a lot of the same bugs!

    You get shot behind walls a lot on BF3 also, they never bothered fixing it, the fact that this CTE is going at the moment I hope it will come to consoles....

    It may not come to the 360 or the PS3 due to what bandwidth MS/Sony require for their online games, I can see it coming to the new machine's (I hope!)

    If it doesn't, I'm a gonna get a PC, lol....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    You get shot a lot around walls in COD too, trust me, it's not a BF4 exclusive:(

    lets just all call it a ricochet and live with it. :)

    Also, in BF4 many of the walls do not stop bullets by design. You can shoot people through walls so at least some of the time you think there is a glitch, you were just choosing the wrong cover

    June 3rd.

    Considering we're only a little over 2 weeks away now, shouldn't we be getting a specific Dragons Teeth trailer? Or maybe pics of the overview of the maps like we did with NS?!

    JackFrags's is doing a poll on Commander Mode - http://strawpoll.me/1716162

    For me, if it were it's own seperate game type/mode, I wouldn't mind it being in the game. If I want to play Commander Mode CQ/Rush/Obliteration, etc, I'll pick it.
    But for the most part, I have no interest with it, despite putting some extensive time on it in recent weeks. So I voted for it being game breaking and unbalances the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    I use supressors a lot so having a Commmander UAV up all the time annoys me. I voted that it gets boring fast. Play it sometimes if I'm too drunk to aim straight :)

    Started playing Defuse this weekend. New favourite game mode. God I played S&D to death on COD.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,603 ✭✭✭✭Akrasia


    Commander mode is pretty pointless on Hardcore mode

    Another reason why I prefer hardcore mode to normal mode. (except when I want a quick arcadey type game)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,143 ✭✭✭jumbobreakfast


    Having just one side with a commander seriously unbalances the game and the commander deployed AC130 is a ridiculously overpowered screen shaker.

    I've had matches where me and a mate will take one out and in the time it takes to reload a rocket it's redeployed. Incredibly annoying, there should be a cooldown period between it blowing up and it being redeployable.

    Isn't that the job of your team to disable said flag that gives them the ac-130 in the first place?

    Except when the AC130 keeps pelting said flag to stop the other team from capping it....

    I would think so yes, except I've found it hard pressed to find the rest of my team at times outside the squad I'm playing in, they seem to be non existent at times. Team play in this game is very rare it seems.

    Also what majesticdonkey said.

    Actually just played it last night for a while. When u consider it as just a 'lying in bed relaxing' kind of flash game, its pretty good. When that cruise middle hit and you see 'squad wipe' and vehicle 'destroyed' it makes you smile knowing the chaos going on in the actual game. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    How do you use cruise missiles - tips? I've fired enough of them but my hit rate is really low. It is very cool when it hits something though.

    Now I know how they work I'm utterly bemused how I was hit by one while aimlessly wandering around, as a soldier in the middle of no-where, in one of the China Rising maps.

    Ill be getting it.

    I liked BF4 even if it is frustrating as **** and Im trying to stay faithful to the idea that they will learn from it and be smarter in the future with releasing unfinished games.

    I enjoy the games too much to just flat out stop buying them. Ill be getting this AND battlefront.

    EA is the publisher and owner of both visceral and DICE studios, I don't think EA would want another BF4 disaster, however Visceral did work on Battlefield 4 with Dice so perhaps they've learned by their mistakes already, however i wouldn't look into getting this game until I'm sure i like it and that it actually works properly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,000 ✭✭✭fl4pj4ck


    love BF4, will get the next one. I'm sorry not everyone can enjoy bf4, really am, thing is there is no other game for ma I play at the moment, everything else is just 20mins and then big "MEH"


  • Registered Users Posts: 397 ✭✭The Red


    ^ this. Exactly this. Escept BF3 and BFBC2.. I still like to run them every so often.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,787 ✭✭✭hallo dare


    BFBC2 was awesome!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,133 ✭✭✭GottaGetGatt


    I actually had alot more fun in BC2 and BF3 on the 360 then i've had playing BF4 on next gen.

    Great memories of playing squad death match on Harvest day lurking around the hills in a ghillie suit.
