All platforms are down... Back to forza so...


What's the deal with updates on pc do they just hotfix stuff or do you have to update via origin app?

You can't really prevent ddos attacks on this kind of scale.
It's not really a security issue

At least it wasn't me who broke the servers by trying to play the game on my crappy AMD A-10 7300 laptop at 13FPS

Playing rush and came across 6 of my team mates on the mountain sniping into the town. If TK was on I would have dynamited them all.

6 of them, all beside each other ffs.

To fix this all they had to do was reduce the Headshot multiplier past 200m for snipers.

Servers down and I don't care. From over 2500 hours in BFBC2, BF3 and BF4 to not caring about the beta.

I dunno what it is but it just seems all a little pointless. BF can be feel like that, whereas as in 5 v5 games you do make a difference.

Maybe will give it another go

Headshot

come home after a hard day of work, hoping to play some BF1 on the PC and find out the servers are ****ed at the moment

feck sake

Another bunch of bedroom dwelling chronic masturbators ruining everyone else's fun. Hope these types die roaring.

Are you suggesting that a head shot shouldn't be a one hit kill?

Yes, from a far distance so those dicks hiding on the mountains would surely be less frequent.

Sheeeit why not just remove sniper riffles from the game altogether.

No, should be viable from 100m to 200m but after that all we see is sniper simulator 1

It was working for me fine the past 90 minutes, but the server dwindled down to 15 players out of the 64, so I left at that point and now can't get in anywhere again.

TerrorFirmer

Working again. The US servers seem to be the only reliable ones, some of them are full with 50-60 people in queue!

I know its only a video game but I'd hate to see a head shot not being a one hit kill. You need a little bit of realism in it.

I don't mind the hill **** and its kinda nice to see them up on high spots as it reminds me of BFBC2. Both teams seem to have them and they make for easy kills.

But the Headshot is not a one hit kill with 80 percent of guns in BF, ie all guns bar snipers

Shlippery

It's a good thing the menu music is so damn good.


Almost compensates for trying to play for the past 5 hours

Uriel.

I just get as far as matchmaking but keep getting match making failed

I really hope this becomes the official name for them :P

its annoying on a personal level getting killed by hill **** constantly (yeah I like that name too, though I first misread it as hill winkers, cause of the glint of the sniper rifle makes it look like they're winking at you from the hills)

but in the game overall it balances out as the team with the most hill **** tend to lose.

I was in a game earlier where our team was storming ahead, so confident of our lead quite a number of the team swapped into their hooded robes and went off to the hills to wink at each other.

The tide reversed so rapidly I got whiplash and it was only out of desperate perseverance of some of our tank drivers and me mining the railtrack constantly that we held the tiny lead at the end.

It is pretty fun lining up a cavalry run to trample them all to death though.

I hope they put in a verdun mode where all auto infantry wepons are removed and machine guns are at fixed points

What joystick are you using?

Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. When I say Joystick...I mean a stick..not a controller.

It seems to be an issue with most/all joysticks

Back into the game now. Finally.
