    Going up to get my brother and Xbox One. He already has battlefield 4 for the xbox 360, he mentioned something to me about game stop will take the 360 version for a fee.

    Is this still in place or did he hear wrong?

    Offer finished before christmas as far as I know, and to be honest I'd check what state the game is in on One at the minute before buying it, last I played of it things were not good regards the multiplayer.

    Yep calex71 is correct the offer finished before christmas. The game is playable now but sometimes can spend 5 or 10 minutes trying to join a server.

    Have found joining US servers strangely alot less laggy and easier to join

    Agree with the others about the terrible multiplayer issues with BF4, There is nothing "Next Gen" about a Battlefield game with rubber banding, lag, game crashes/freezes, missing sound in vehicles, you know... all the same things we had in the last 2 battlefield games last gen.

    Incredibly disappointing considering the expense to experience this.

    I haven't had any multiplayer issues as described above, I have a good line currently 78mb and playing 32v 32 is brilliant only issue is first 5-10 secs of joining match you get that no sound glitch, also are you doing a quick search for games or using the server browser to find the best ping for you? I only search by server browser and its a quicker way of getting in as you select the servers with large amount of players on and highest ping.

    I only play on official servers in Europe with "supposedly" the best ping, yet I have never experienced a day of Battlefield that hasn't given me serious issues (rubber banding most frequently on more games than not)

    I have a 200mb broadband pack from upc so that shouldn't be the issue.. but who knows it could be temperamental.

    & I now only play conquest 64 as I feel like they have made a mess of Rush in BF4 (a mode I thoroughly enjoyed in BC2-BF3)

    These issues are quite common with new Battlefield releases but this time it feels like it's much worse & it's disgraceful that it has persisted so long.

    It's making me look foward to the next Halo game, though I havn't enjoyed Halo that much since Halo 2, at least you know Microsoft will have some decent servers & the game isn't being rushed out the door like an EA game.

    I havent played BF4 for a few weeks now. And I wont be playing until they fix them and by the looks of it, this is going to take a while...

    I wouldnt recommend any, IMO get a different game. Havent turned on my Xbox one for 2 weeks, I am back on my Xbox/Ps3... cant wait for titanfall

    Battlefield 4 has been running much better in the last few weeks. You get the odd server with a bit of lag but overall myself and many boards XB1 players are enjoying the game.
