yeah R9 was working fine for the few hours that it was out for us (others had problems though). R10 was rushed out but now it looks like we might need R11

FFS, I really thought they'd put some quality bug fixes out. It's unreal. And yet I keep coming back to buy their BF games.

Stupid.

I've easily lost 3/4 levels through crashes, Stevie Wonder can see the game was not finished when they released it to get the jump on Ghosts. Incredibly frustrating. I actually had more stability last night (still 3 crashes in 3 hours) than today, although more server than client crashes today...

My game is worse since the patch. I had no crashes in about a week, 2 today now since update

Well i stayed away from Celts and GaelLords (play on both alot) tonight and managed to play for 3hrs non stop on another English server with no problems at all.:):):)

ewj1978

It's nice to have no crashes for a change isnt it? you must have missed it but Gaellords had a workaround applied to fix the end of round crashes introduced in today's patch. I played for 4 hours straight and some of the lads are still going . We even got to see the skyscraper come down in shanghai with not one person crashing out.

It was great yes,thats good news about Gaellords since most of my time is spent on the 64 man server.:D:)

5 mins into siege and crashed

fergus1001

I got a crash in sp and keeps doing it must be making my CPU break down in tears

when the ship breaks into half

even if I look away when it happens (in game and in real life :P ) it happens

Strange, I haven't had a single crash in well over a week of playing, plenty of time before and after patch, and played Siege of Shanghai countless times where the tower came down. I reckon it must be a hardware problem limited to a series of cards/cpu's/whatever, even something as simple as audio chips....I play on Gaellords only, really.

Siege of Shanghai freezes me out every time.

dreamers75

fair few crashes tonight, none since the patch

FlyingIrishMan

Definitely gotten worse since the patch, haven't played a game from start to finish yet.
And then 5 man queues take 20mins to get back in.

I've honestly played about 20 Siege of Shanghai games and it's never crashed on me once, I play on Gaellords the whole time so I really don't know what it is causing crashes...

Dcully

Absolutely shocking that they still havent sorted so many things with the game.

Yeah it happened on Gaellords last night.
Now I've not been playing much (not really enjoying it), but this is the only map that freezes for me I think so at least its consistent. I'm using war tapes audio if that's any difference.

EDIT: Nevermind, nonstop crashes today. **** it I give up on this game.

I have not had any crashes since the last patch. Even before it I was getting very few. Most of my issues seem to of been sorted with various server updates. I'm convinced its hardware based on client machines

Just crashed as we were taking over Echo on GaelLords, an almighty "**** OFF" came from my mouth.

Haven't had any crashes since the updates. Still getting shot through walls the odd time tho

Even if it is client based its not acceptable, hardware that is able to run the game smooth on high should not be crashing fair enough if the hardware is not up to scratch and struggling to play the game but its only when certain things happen in the game that it crashes for me like in the single player when major events happen and makes your CPU cry

On a related note, is anyone having sound issues? Whenever I am in a tank I can't hear most sounds, and the surround sound is not being rendered correctly on maps.

I've always had this kind of sound issue with Battlefield games, on different hardware. It's like Dice spend all their time fixing the same bugs with each release.

Sparks

Things have gotten a lot better for me since the client side patch, I'm still hitting server and client crashes but a lot less often and the interpolation seems a lot better. But I am getting that wierd old-style 3D effect (the wavering superimposed red and green images) every so often, which is new and a pain in the fundament. And the sound glitches on me occasionally - it's like I go deaf in the game to everything around me except my own noises, which has let a few people sneak up on me.... in tanks.... and helos...
Honestly, we're going to see a few more TrolllinDaNoobs videos on youtube if this keeps up

3 games in a row and crashed in each one, was working fine earlier today. Pretty frustrating.

These are not server crashes

We are getting a lot of report about Blaze backend disconnects (EA/DICE Backend) (DDOS)
until their resolved expect to get disconnected not only from our server but everyone else.

"NOTICE: We are currently experiencing attacks on our infrastructure that is impacting online gameplay on BF4 PC. We are working on mitigating actions "
so much for playing a few games this evening.
