Any tips on how to quickly level up my sniper rifles so I can unlock the srr-61?  Currently using the 338-recon and doing Rush

 

Play hardcore, more chance of a kill and tbh is far more fun.

Play only decent sniper maps, you could also you a short scope x3 or similar.

I was playing Metro (confused how Second Assault is just now out? been playing for weeks) and all my guns, unlocks, vehicles etc were fine. I switched to play with a friend who doesn't have DLC to conq. Hainan Resort, everything was gone...everything. Not to mention I went 49-7 only to have that not recorded, just for fun..

Thanks DICE.

correction, only my rank was accurate.

I had this once before, things started unlocking randomly as I played. I then quit the server rotation, joined another and everything including load out setup was back.

I'm guessing this is somthing related to the lovely outage last night and it will all come back in time.

I thought I read something that there is an issue with some servers and ranks? I don't think they've been wiped, it's just a temporary server issue.

 

Happened to me several times, keep my rank but lose every single unlock I have, happened multiple times on PC, XB1 and PS4. When it happens I turn that system off and play BF4 on a different one.

You have the luxury of having 3 platforms...I don't think a lot of people will have that as well, haha!

I've not actually kept in the loop of BF4, but I saw some pictures of the BF3 maps on BF4 and it looks pretty good, now that the Titanfall beta is over I'm going to get back into it!

I loaded a different server and they came back luckily.

I am done with this game... 3 months after release and this thing still doesn't work. I crashed out twice and "lost connection to the server" three times last night. I was considering getting Premium in a few days but now I am so fed up with it, it will be lucky if it ever graces my Xbox's disk drive again.

Release a broken patch to patch the previous broken patch that patched the previous broken patch...

The only issue I've had so far is the crash-to-desktop bug when you spawn in a squad-mate's vehicle. Aside from that, the game has been running great for me. I haven't had any issues with mantle but I had to rollback to the Catalyst 13.12 drivers because of a bug with the Catalyst Control Centre.

Addressing ?Netcode? in Battlefield 4

 

We at DICE are committed to improving the overall Battlefield 4 multiplayer experience for our players. Some issues, commonly referenced in conjunction to ?netcode? are preventing Battlefield 4 from performing optimally for everyone, and with this post we would like to explain what we are doing to address these problems.

 

Fixing the commonly nicknamed ?netcode issues? ? problems ranging between faulty networking latency compensation and glitches in the gameplay simulation itself ? is one of the top priorities for DICE. We?d like to take a moment to discuss how we are addressing these issues, as this is a very hot topic for many of our fans.

 

We are working on fixing glitches in your immediate interactions with the game world: the way you move and shoot, the feedback when you?re hit, and the way other players? actions are shown on your screen.

 

The game receives updates from the game server and displays these to the player using a system called latency compensation ? this system makes sure players move around naturally on your screen when network updates arrive. We have found and fixed several issues with latency compensation, and thereby decreased the impressions of ?one hit kills? in the game.

 

We have also fixed several issues that could lead to rubber banding, and we are working on fixing several more. Below you?ll find a detailed list of the issues we are focusing on, or have already adjusted in-game. We hope this gives you more insight into the ?netcode? issues and we will continue to keep you updated on top issues.

Not seen that issue on the X1 luckily although i did see for a split second a gun moving with an invisible player, other than that the game plays great atleast in team deathmatch.

Then you're lucky to be playing it on X1....opted for the PC version back when the game launched and for my "master race" credentials it appears i get the most broken version. As Ficman said, whenever DICE says they're fixing something, RUN.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By zikalify · Posted

      Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By snowy owl · Posted

      I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
