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 have also lost all my weapons and upgrades and my rank is fine, is there a fix for this?

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.

Big Battlefield franchise sale going on right now at Origin:

  • Battlefield 4: $29.99 (reg $59.99)
  • Battlefield 4 Digital Deluxe (comes with China Rising DLC): $34.99 (reg $69.99)
  • China Rising DLC: $11.99 (reg $14.99)

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.

Wish I hadnt bothered, at present myself. New PC patch today and game is now un-playable AGAIN! Crash`s every game you join. forums uproar and a "fix" posted that doesn`t fix anything. Well not for me.

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

 

the DICE way of nailing it.

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.

The patch that came out over the weekend broke it again...now there's the vibrating gun glitch, with animated fittings and attachments that hop around as your guy jitters his way across the map! What the ###### DICE, that really stands for Decidedly Incompetent Computer Engineers

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.

    • I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.
