You should play bf 3 again in the meantime. The combat feels so much more fluid everything happens as it is, and often you have enough time to react. No more fast forwarding death animations and random one hit deaths like BF 4. I don't ever remember getting delayed bullet damage after ducking into cover in BF 3.

Those who claim that BF 3 was just as bad are pure fanboys

you and this guy

really? you consider that a rant?

all he did was posted some youtube vids others made.

the vid made by Ra1der is 100% what I would have said.

latest patch?

now when a person kills you sometimes it shows 0 health (even if on his screen he has 100%), you know the info is wrong but it annoys you everytime

aiming reticule still disappear from time to time, and corpses still can't be revived if it deviates too much from original death spot.

you don't have to answer me like that, really you don't.

a patch is suppose to fix certain parts of a product while not breaking new ones.

based on my playing hours, I would say low pingers suffer as much as high pinger, there aren't many advantages having low ping when compared to BF 3, there will be many situations where your shots deal 0 damage and that isn't your aiming or reaction time problem, it's the info that is travelling to and from your PC to the server, hence you'll see even high pingers having the highest scores on the board.

I know what DICE and EA is trying to do and that is to appeal to as many players globally as possible and the low tick rate is detrimental on the overall gameplay experience of a fast paced FPS game.

To counter react this anomaly, you should try to avoid sprinting forwards too much as the update rate is too slow to keep up with what is being rendered on your PC, hence many situations you get 'one shotted' when you bump into someone, but in fact they were already firing a full clip on you.

hence server tick rate, not many gamers knew about the importance of it until BF 4 came along, it needs to improve at least to bf 3 standards

hopefully DICE is going to fix it.

here's the odd part, DICE did think ahead and there's actually spawn protection built into the game

the issue: spawn protection timer is not long enough till your black screen is off.

a quick fix would be to increase spawn protection timer by 500ms or 1 sec.

so far no such fix is in the works.

your best bet now is to stare at your partner's cam to see where he's facing, and start spamming your movements keys during black screen to hopefully be able to run away IN the right direction to avoid line of fire, either that or hit prone immediately.

just to clarify, everyone gets it, regardless if you're on i7 or pentium 4, windows vista or 8.1

Something to do with corrupted slots when players leave the server. This what happens when not enough testing is done on the game before release.

find another server to join.

well I used to run a crusade in Maxis forums to get google pings down to 10 ms on peak hours

they have maintained that so far but the peering to gaming servers just fall apart during those hours

there's no ammo left for me to shoot them cause these so called customer service representatives won't understand what latency and game servers even mean...

yeap, I have used ADSL 2+ for a couple of years and never had any of this bullshit.

pretty sad that I can't say fiber optic is more reliable than a copper line (but we all know Maxis is doing it wrong )

9pm-12.30am

have to wait till then to get back normal pings

Might have to think of a good story to write in the forums again.

Tonight looks fine, are you still getting 100ms?

lol nvm i spoke too soon,

off to maxis i go

wait for the next EA humble bundle

it is a known bug since Day 1.

Connecting....

Error: Could not connect to server

Reason: Corrupted player slot

9/10 times you were trying to connect to 64/64 with queuing, 63/64, 62/64, or even 60/64.

if the server admin does not restart the server daily the corrupted slots will accumulate.

want to get 10/10 successful connection? Try a 0/64 server, and you will get the msg "Loading Level" flawlessly.

to get yourself less frustrated, find a server that is about to end, and players will start leaving, 50/64 will give you a very high chance.

also, the time between Connecting... and Loading Level... is around 4-5 seconds, if it hangs at Connecting for more than 10 seconds, immediately press the X on the far right to save time and try another server.

GL!

join a squad that always reach flag point first then spawn on them to teleport immediately.

learn to ignore those numbers, there is a real number that is not being displayed correctly.

'Assist counts as kill xx' after you got shot down and your teammate finish him off will tell you his actual health remaining, which is of course more than 0 HP.

only on very rare occasion would you get "Assist counts as kill 100" which really annoy the hell out of me

at 100 that guy should have been dead, I suspect something to do with that medic perk working some mojo to let him live at 0.01%

it will continue where you left off no issues.

If they are doing direct conversion, it will still translate to the same prices in RM

There's no point for them to increase prices on a third country demographics, in fact a Malaysia Origin should be selling the same price (but no one in EA cares to make a Malaysia Origin store)

is your 7770 running at 99% ?

based on some googling, the phenom MAY bottleneck the 280x and 270x on directx, however Mantle is suppose to resolve that, but without any historical data out there you will be left to do the actual testing yourself.

if you've got a friend with a 7870 or 7950, you can borrow and test for b-necks before investing on a new card, otherwise just buy the new GPU knowing that it will be used on your next CPU upgrade.
