'Battlefield: Hardline. Arriving 2015

Was I the only one that thought the graphics in the E3 footage looked.. somewhat cartoonish? I just didn't think it looked good.
 
BF4 is a DISASTER. The game does not work. It has bugs that date back to BF2 that they never bothered to fix. The netcode was an absolute joke. It seems that only the most recent patch made it playable. Otherwise you were getting killed 5 seconds after you got to cover. The game still doesn't load properly. I'd say about 1 in 4 times it just hangs and forces me to reboot my console. The other day I put in the disk and it said that I needed an Xbox Live Gold account to play online.

BF4 is amazing. I am playing it on Xbox One (have been since day one...and played it on 360 on day one), and other than the first month, it's been solid and lag free since then. No reboots, no issues, no load problems. Works slicker than s***.

BF4 has been playable for me on X1 after 1 month, then it became unplayable again when naval strike came out but now its back to better then ever

Yup, rocking here too.

I'm not sure the condition on xb1

Condition is great on [HASHTAG]#xbox[/HASHTAG] here as well.

Back to Hardline, I so am tempted to just get BF4 on PS4 just to play the beta. The more I see, the more I like.

Same here, no problems with BF4 on XB1 for me either :)

I have to say as much as I love BF, and Hardline looks cool, with the announcement of the new Rainbow Six game, Hardline doesn't look as appealing.

Well, yes...I would take a new Rainbow Six over COD or Battlefield ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. I love Rainbow Six games with a passion. My [HASHTAG]#Xbox[/HASHTAG] One is going to get a workout this next year, that is for sure.

Yeah, R6 looks really good, but if people don't play as a team as intended, the game is going to blow.

I remember years ago playing so much R6 on pc, and people played as a cohesive unit. Once CoD started making it big, team play just went out the window. Now, it's like, gamers have forgotten how to play as a team.

Yeah, they finally got the matches ironed out without issues seven months after release, but there are still tons of bugs & glitches. Look at something as easy as Squad Perks/Field Upgrades. Play one game of Team Deathmatch, earn extra ammo on Xbox One, next match it's gone forever. That's a simple bug that they haven't fix since laungh. You lose all your perks after one match, they do not work. That's a major part of the game. You still black screen between matches in TDM & it lasts for 7 minutes before the next map loads. They balanced the Stinger/IGLA damage four different times now & it's still wrong for IGLA's now. Your reticule is still messed up after a revive, it thinks you're still Suppressed from right before you died, so your reticule is stuck full open. Your camo still won't save on your character once you play a different playlist or even the same playlist. Gun camos on Xbox One are the wrong color, they never fixed them after they broke them. There's currently a glitch on some servers where the audio cuts in & out in TDM, you can't fix it, you have to join a different server. The Laser Guided reticule is broken on the Attack Chopper, the square box is supposed to follow the target, that got broke two updates ago, still not fixed. I could go on & on & on. There's a list of over 250+ bugs still, you just don't notice them...this is Brokenfield 4... "It's that Brokenfeel!" This is 7 months later AFTER 6-7 updates already & there's still that many problems gone unfixed that are major bugs, especially the Squad Perks.

Exactly, BF is a shining example, everyone lone wolfs it now. Nothing worse than playing a team/objective based game and everyone plays it as a free for all.
 
@devilsgrin_6 I thought the field upgrade/squad perks are based on a per match basis? Your squad builds them up over the course of a match, I didn't think they were meant to carry over match to match?

They carry over if you win. Regardless, you should always have your first perk. You lose Sprint even after 1-2 games in TDM. If you win, you can see your bar say you earned 3 perks full from the previous match, the bar is then still there saying you have 3 perks, but you have none of those perks. If you lose the game you lose all your perks, but you should always have the first one. You also lose 1 perk if your whole Squad are dead at the same time. The perk bar is based off Squad Score, so it just gives you perks as you personally accumulate that. It's such an easy thing to program/patch. Squad Points are obviously easier to get in Conquest when you can Squad Repair or get Squad Assists riding in a vehicle. They are definitely not working in Team Deathmatch after 1-2 games & I've seen them stop working in Conquest at random times. (I use the extra explosive perk a lot as Engineer & sometimes I don't have the 6 Slams or Mines even though the bar is full & we won the last game) I've played 1000's of matches of BF4, there is a lot you notice when playing so long. It's all minor, but adds up to a lot when you notice it all. The Squad Perks are huge to me as I hate losing Sprint because I knife a lot.
 
I didn't know they are supposed to carry over if you win. I know you lose a lvl if your whole squad gets smoked.

This hasn't happened in my experience, including friends I play with.

Your camo still won't save on your character once you play a different playlist or even the same playlist.

I haven't had this be a problem either. Though I have issues trying to make the "new" notification go away when I unlock items.

Gun camos on Xbox One are the wrong color, they never fixed them after they broke them.

I haven't had those issues either.
 
I had a blast with the CQ dlc for BF3. For me it kinda put the newer COD game maps to shame. Would love a full BF game with all CQ type maps.
 
playing beta, i love that there is FULL controller support now. in that you can change class, edit weapons, switch squads etc all with the controller. you couldnt do that in previous BF games

Ziba Tower was always a really good time. You'd probably like the new Dragon's Teeth DLC coming out soon for BF4. It's all urban maps with some smaller close quarters areas for TDM & Domination.
 
dude...we go WAY back for BF... I think this was DESTINY to get me a HARDLINE code before SUNSET.
 
hey thanks for giving me the code Hazard, i was surprised how little you wanted in return for screwing Kvally over
 
Ok, so I finally got a code for the PS4 version. I don't know, I still say BF4 looks better....in the texture and lighting department. And I know they said it's 1080p...but I'm not seeing it. It still has that slight lower than 1080p look that most games under 1080p exhibit. You know...not as sharp.

I will say this though....I'm actually digging the game. Not because it's a new BF game....but because it doesn't feel like BF. Don't get me wrong, I love BF, but I play BF for BF. This is...different, I like that.

Hopefully the final product on ps4 will look better than BF4, but right now, it's about the same, and in some areas, worse. Hopefully we can chalk it up to being a beta.

You can see that sun shines off of stuff better on BF4 and water puddles look a bit better. Other than that, looks about the same. I don't see where some think it looks better.

I don't think the game is optimized for PC yet. I can't get the damn thing to get 60 frames per second on lowest settings. I've got motion blur off, and vsync on.

I'm running an ATI Radeon R9 280x, so I'm not quite sure why it's not giving me 60fps.
 
My opinion so far regarding pc versus ps4.....pc version obviously looks better, however, I find there to be less lag on ps4 and it's generally more enjoyable due to less lag.
