    Not bringing up the console v PC war cos I actually don't give a crap but this surprised me... expected a massive difference but I'd rank the difference here as minor.

    Was looking forward to next-gen so this disappoints me a little apart from the move to 64 players of course.

    AAAAhhhhhhhhh it burns my eyes :P I didnt know they were releasing BF4 on the snes :pac:

    I kid :) In all fairness though peoples expectations of this beta are far too high so much moaning and complaining its a BETA ffs, its months old and poorly optimized if your still not sure about buying the final game wait for reviews and other peoples opinions then make a decision don't just make a decision based on this BETA alone

    Hows connection these days? I havent gone near it since it kept crashing on me


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 3,092 Mod ✭✭✭✭ktulu123


    Running great for me since the patch. Couple crashes earlier but a load of hours went by without one :)

    Had one of the best rounds earlier tonight. Amazing comeback round with some outrageous stuff happening. Deffo going to make a video of it :)

    Found an Irish server last night , only spotted it because my ping was 11 :eek:. Good few people on it .


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,711 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    Ok ive played enough to say i will definitely be buying the full game, most likely premium and DLC.
    Yes the beta is poorly optimized,yes its buggy,yes its a 3-4 month old build but you know what - im having a lot of fun even with the same map over and over.
    Played some BF3 lastnight with some friends, enjoyed it since i hadnt played BF3 in months.
    Instantly it felt so polished compared to the BF4 beta, but after one map i was back to BF4.
    I think they have nailed the gameplay this time round.

    Do a search in the MultiplayerServer Browser menu for "test server" and it shows whatever EA Dice test servers are running at the moment. They all seem to be based in Ireland.

    I wonder will it mean Irish servers for the full game. I'm sold on the full game and premium too, as for me its an improvement on most of bf3.

    on pc probably not unless ea decide to host servers (which is doubtful) probably on xbox/ps3 though as dice ea servers are needed

    There is a massive difference, i have both and the difference is night and day, No youtube video can get anywhere near the fidelity of sitting infront of a PC
    Its actually shocking the difference between the two.

    Okay fair enough, look this is good 'cos I am hoping the move to Ps4 for me will be worth it vis a vis BF4 so if there is a big jump to PC well I am happy to go in the middle of that with the PS4.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭mozattack


    The game has certainly grown on me. I played BF3 the other night expecting the controls to be way different but they actually weren't, maybe I just got used to BF4 controls since, I don't know.

    Why the flip they didn't include Rush on the beta is beyond me though, if I played this on console for the first time I'd leave it at that... not enough players for that map :(


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,711 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    The PS4 should be able for 64 players @ 720 and 60 fps.


    Il be on that Irish server at some point tonight me thinks , hope to see some boardsies there.

    Agreed, however I see that Obliteration is listed in the server filter, wonder if they'll make that mode available before the beta finishes ?

    Wasnt it between 720p and 1080p? Some say 900p if I am not mistaken.

    The PS3 never did scale that well in the 1st place so hopefully the PS4 will be able to at least match the old Xbox and the Xbox one.

    Xbox 360 looks more like N64 graphics.

    I'm playing on Xbox. And find it fairly poor. Graphics wise anyway. The gameplay seems decent but nothing majorly good. I'm playing without a squad and find it's fairly big. I think on average I die maybe 4-6 times in a round and usually finish over evens. Just by avoiding contact so much. Would love to invest in a PC and buy BF:4 for that though. Always preferred battlefields on PC compared to Xbox

    Cherry is that for real or you taking a piss?! :confused:

    Ya its a relatively empty game on a map that size. Plus conquest isnt really my thing I love rush at least everybody is concentrated on one or 2 objectives. Though domination isnt half bad.
