Sorry I'm killing PC Gaming by only playing on High. I should also add that these crashes only occur maybe once every 10 games or so.

Why are you posting this info here? Dice arent trawling the net for this info. I`d suggest posting on there website or sending this info to them via there support.

 

Which is maybe what he is going to do with it he's collected it?

Dont see half a dozen or so reports posted from another forum being the key. I`d wager there`s already a swathe of data and people willing to provide data on the Battlelog system forums/support they have.

And again it would of been better to post with a link or announcement from DICE asking for the data, and linking to the official means.

Seems unnecessary to post info here we could easily just post ourselfs to the Battlelog site.

Possibly - the main aim was for *us* to see what the common problems are - any patterns etc.

I've found that running in borderless window helps too - but might be the patch...

The game is broken, hard. The devs/EA don't care (as can be seen in the forums as they are a complete no show) if they did they would have fixed it by now rather than leaving it this long then release a 1GB patch that makes the game crash even MORE.

 

But you wanted some specs so here you go.

Its the server code also the drivers from AMD that are contributing to the crashes, on the server side theres nothing you can do although i heard turning Ambient Occlusion off helps to avoid crashes so try turning that off if you crash a bit see if it helps. otherwise posting this info is useless as like someones said the game has bin out for weeks and theyd of compiled data from battlelog so posting stuff here wont help in the slightest.... no offense

It's not the hardware causing it.. the game itself is an early beta. It's even crashing on XBOX and PS ffs.

This. Also how much data do people think is needed to draw conclusions?

6-12 peoples hardware profiles does not equal a fair slice of the PC hardware demographic.

Nor would 4-6 of those people having the same hardware and same problems necessarily be an endemic causation.

I noticed that my Battlefield 4 was lagging like hell, even on lower graphics settings. I Googled around and found out that Windows 7 has a setting which can park/sleep idle/unused processor cores. This guide (basically saying change the value of a key in several locations in the registry) http://forum.cakewalk.com/Windows-7-amp-Core-Parking-a-better-way-to-Turn-It-OFF-m1861804.aspx worked for me and I have a lot less CPU lag.


 


Anyway, here is my BF4 details:


 


Version ie 32/64bit: 64-bit


What Size Game ie 32/64 player: N/A - Single player only


What Mode Game ie Rush: N/A - Single player only


What Graphics Card: Nvidia GTX 580


What Driver Version: Latest as of 16/11/2013


What Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit


Processor: Intel Core i7-2600K


How much System RAM do you have: 8GB


Are you running full screen, windowed, full screen boarderless window: Full Screen


What sound card are you using: On-board sound (Asus P8P67 motherboard)


Screenshot of your BF4 config: N/A - But all settings are on Ultra, except for Antialiasing Defferred, which is off.

It's only done it for me once or twice, so definitely not impossible.

 

It clearly is impossible as you just stated you have crashed. Even people in the BL forums have threads called "I never crash" and you read their post and they say that the server crashes for them. WTF?! It's clearly crashing for you even if its not your client.

 

**In fact I'll go as far as saying anyone who says they have NOT crashed multiple times on the PC version is a liar.**

So because I've had a crash it's impossible anyone else in the universe might not have had that experience?

 

...is this what passes for logic around here now?
