TASHGAR BUGS:

After getting a collectible atop the dam I was running around the scaffolding in the game and I guess I "went where I wasn't suppose to", even though all I did waws run straight, red screen + insta-death, and the game froze after loading Also, MASSIVE frame rate drop when shooting the helicopter down with a grenade launcher...

 

Now attempting to load the Tashgar mission from the Campaign > Resume menu freezes the console as a whole, I really expected a better quality product from DICE, this is horrendous, that and the fact that you cannot even party up with friends in multiplayer..

 

Multiplayer Bug(s): Console (360):

When promoted the "You have been Promoted" & Corresponding rank are in an infinite loop until death.

Because the game doesn't feel as complete as the other versions.

It's about principle. I don't specially care about the achievements themselves.

Ever feel like people say things to farm responses?

Was not aware PC players really gave two cents about achievements in general. I sure don`t but hey I guess Im of a different era, before we all needed that kind of extra superficial nonsense.

And your BF4 Soldier profile is the only achievement needed.

Not to mention denying yourself one of the years top AAA titles on this, weak, very weak.

Principle of what?

 

Surely you buy a game because it has the content you want at a price you're willing to pay... So what has content you have no interest in got to do with anything?

I think he just doesn't want to buy it. Not buying a MP game just because there're no "achievements", is just silly.

I just started BF4 and now I'm in the open field (to reach the factory).

There is a helicopter standing by.... constanty stating "ready to engage, give me a target".

But how do I do that/which key combination do I have to use?

 

Help appreciated ;)

Here is the server address: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/servers/show/PC/ea6214a3-93c3-4c0e-8c9c-22a2f6939a7a/

Server IP: 774.91.127.59:252004.91.127.59:25200

See ya on the battlefield.

Tried the server and had some fun there. Good group of people that play there. Added to Favorites :)

Whats the deal with the browser plugin? Whenever i try to play the game it takes me to a website, asks me to run a control, which i accept.. then it asks me to download a browser plugin, which i do, then install it.. then i click continue and click play campaign, then it asks me to download it again.

 

What a pathetic way to launch a game..

 

Windows 8.1 IE11 any ideas?

I agree. I am a PC gamer and don't care about achievements. I play because I love playing multi-player and in a good squad. The only thing I try to achieve is a higher kill than death ratio but ultimately I do not care. I play to play.

Theres not really any advantage over mouse keyboard with a stick, Your mouse is pretty accurate. You just need practice. 

Got the delivery guy bring the joystick about thirty minutes ago. I'm already thinking about joining a flock.

I'm like a really fat bird in the sky :D https://mega.co.nz/#!yMMUSCwL!VdIznhfOwR6CnJ10xF-L6huTFoNwgI_c7F-GXpir02M

I have the plugin installed from BF3.  I doubt BF4s is any different, but we'll see...downloading BF4 now.

 

No problems on IE11 here.

 

Neither site's plug in works with IE11.

We'll the graphics always look great on cutscenes and not as great (for me anyway) as the actual game itself.  Not impressed with single player campaign as I don't play Multiplayer. The AI and teammates are slow to react at times and in the first mission I'm waiting for one of my squad mates to get a locked door open on an upper floor while holding off these crazy Chinese militants and it takes the guy like 10-15 minutes to get the door open. Anybody else having issues with sending out the command (Q) for targeting and then attacking, either for the Cobra or ground. 

(Yes I also took into account my specs suck but I'm able to play at 1900x1800)

    • Microsoft: Windows 11 could finally solve a major issue across AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs by Sayan Sen While Microsoft has been trying to improve it, Windows 11 is definitely not flawless, as even today some issues are taking a year to publicly acknowledge. However, one area of trouble that may finally see much better results soon is graphics driver crashes. Work on graphics driver timeouts, also called Timeout and Detection Recovery (TDR), is not new as the latest WDDM 3.2 also has specific improvements regarding it. Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) version 3.2 is supported on Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2. However, with the upcoming version 26H2, TDR crash diagnosis could go to the next level as Microsoft is introducing a new DirectX 12 API feature called "DirectX Dump Files". Similar to how system memory dump files work when a system crashes or freezes or encounters any such major issue, DirectX Dump Files (DDF) will essentially record a snapshot of the GPU execution right at the moment a graphics-related crash or hang or freeze occurs, so that developers can better understand and diagnoze these TDR and timeout detection errors. The dump will be available as a .dxdmp file for analysis and it will be a comprehensive dump file generated with detailed insights about the hardware, drivers, Windows, as well as the affected application. This should be another welcome change in this department. Earlier at GDC 2026, when the technology was first debuted, Microsoft had shared more details regarding it. The company had explained how DDF is designed to gather data from every layer of the graphics stack into a single file, eliminating the need for developers to manually correlate logs from multiple tools. As mentioned above, the dump can contain a lot of useful details like GPU hardware state information such as register values, shader program counters, page fault virtual addresses, shader memory data, and command buffers. Alongside that, it also captures DirectX runtime and kernel information, including D3D objects, pipeline state objects, device error data, adapter details, and CPU call stacks. Microsoft says the feature has been built around two primary use cases: retail device removals and local device removals. The former allows developers to collect crash information from end users' systems in the field, while the latter helps QA teams and developers investigate issues on test machines. Developers will also be able to include up to 2 MB of custom application data through new D3D12 APIs, providing additional context for troubleshooting. In addition, Microsoft is introducing three dump collection modes ranging from zero-overhead capture, which has no runtime performance impact on supported hardware, to higher-detail modes that collect more vendor-specific debugging data. On compatible Tier 2 hardware, zero-overhead dumps will be enabled by default, meaning developers may begin receiving useful crash diagnostics without making any code changes. The table below explains the three tiers: Tier Description NO_OVERHEAD Enables crash capture with no runtime cost and is suitable for broad deployment MEDIUM_OVERHEAD Provides a balance, capturing additional diagnostic data with moderate impact HIGH_OVERHEAD Collects the most detailed GPU and driver state available, enabling deeper investigation at the cost of higher runtime overhead In terms of availability, the company expects broader release to be around the fall of 2026, which should be right around the time when Windows 11 version 26H2 lands. Right now, DirectX Dump Files are available as a preview and currently, only AMD has the compatible AgilitySDK Developer Preview driver version 26.10.07.02. You can find the official announcement post here on Microsoft's website.
