Did anyone make a sign up or group or something for PS4?

I did, pretty sure it's called Battlefield Goons or something like that. I posted it a few pages ago.

I tried out Origin Access on PC last night to see if I could get the full version to run better than the beta. Unfortunately my 670 just isn't cutting it, and on some maps the frames dip so often it's hard to play. So I'm sticking with the original plan of playing on PS4 on Friday. The other maps are pretty cool. I wanted to try operations but there wasn't enough people playing it.

I have a Gtx 670 2gb and it runs med/high fine as long as I have shadows down to low. Paired with a 5 year old i5 2500k @4.3ghz and I have zero issues. Just for comparison.

Though I'll be mainly playing on xbone since I home share with somebody. Yay half priced games.

Nice I'm on a 2500k @4.3 too. It seemed to be working better yesterday, I'll test some more tonight.

Switch to the 372.90 drivers if you're using 373.06. 372.90 are better than the latest until they drop Game Ready drivers. I'm using 372.90 on a 1070 and my FPS jumped up around 20/30 on ultra versus 373.06 so you might get some benefit.

It goes down wicked fast if everyone shoots the metal pods under it instead of just the blimp in general. Even a basic mounted machine gun can do some serious damage to it if you aim there, plus you can kill the gunners.

Yeah, it sucks getting killed over and over by it, and I think it's just made worse by the fact that it's currently balanced for people to know it's weak point, but since the game just came out most players are shooting the blimp part instead and assuming it'll do enough damage. I imagine that after a few months the blimp will be going down rather quickly once the majority of the player base knows how to deal with it, but then again it's pubbies to we'll see.

So, do I have to set a setting to NOT defend or be german all the time? Or is it just coincidence? Because holy poo poo...




[edit] In a similar vein, what's up with the "weather"? Does it change, ever? I feel like every map I play is just a washed out fog/smoke hellhole. Makes seeing a challenge.

If another Goon in the community is in a party, you'll see it in the Community Party area and you can join them from there. It's pretty cool.

Yeah, on Xbox you press Y to quit after a match, but the option goes away after about 10 seconds. A great design choice.

Oh, you wanted to look at the final scoreboard and see if you got a battlesnack drop before you quit out? Well gently caress you then, punk.

Amazon updated to say mine will be showing up tomorrow instead of Tuesday. I'm still going to Gamestop today. When the copy shows up I'll either refuse delivery or open it and return it to Gamestop with my receipt from the first purchase.

I am loving this game. I'm actually fairly good with the starter Medic rifle, and killing snipers with it from a distance makes me feel like a champ.

My biggest bitch is that the menus are laggy as all hell. I know on PC it was due to something regarding transparency, and I hope they fix it soon, because going into my loadout on the main screen and trying to swap between the classes can take forever.

Holy poo poo, it actually shows the syringe fill as you pull the plunger? My TV must be too dark to see that. Makes sense since during the whole "adjust your brightness so the emblem is barely visible", the emblem was completely invisible even at 100% brightness.

Am I crazy or is there no ammo to be found anywhere in the single player?

Also, what happened to spotting? I can spot someone but they don't turn up on the mini map. But they do if they're spotted by the flare gun. but not on the screen.
