Was chatting with gunner last night as we came up against someone seemingly invincible so he watched him from outside the game, said the guys movements looked far different to the movements of a pad player so can a wireless mouse and keyboard work in game with the ps4?

Also i didnt realise this and would explain how people know that your tucked up in some tight spot as you capture a flag... if you have your tab open and go to spectate mode, it gives you a map where every single player is! Or alternatively, just having someone on chat who is spectating can do this.

Also doing the rounds is a picture of some dude in canada with 200mb down and 90mb up or something. I ran a quick test last night and im getting 20 down 1 up laugh

Along with the blatant use of modded controllers, you can see how/why these youtube sensations become so good

Battle log used to give you that information through the ipad app.

It's basically got to the point where map knowledge and ping are the most important attributes. Squad play helps a lot as well. Look how much better we all do when playing Metro / Locker with a couple of the merc lot on chat.


It'll keep me going until Gran Turismo comes out in the summer

Its the same app i would imagine for your tab, i never learnt about the spectator mode as why am i going to watch someone play?

id say connection to the game and other people is the biggest thing, how many times have you done or had happen to be 1 shotted? how many times do you call bullst etc.

having that app open like so when your playing though, you wont be able to compete with it either

fk GT. I spent a few hundred quid on a setup for ps3, only for Sony to fk about with thrustmaster...

I've now got a £300 paperweight, which can only be replaced with either a ste non feedback jobby for £100, or a wheel not quite as good for a lot more.

As for BF. Doesn't matter what game, connection will always have an impact. I'm trying to gain patience in my old age, as long as there's a few of us on chat, loads of banter, and a bit of a laugh I'm fine.

Do switch servers if it's really bad though!

What's the PH consensus on the Dlc maps? I paid £15 for my copy so trying to figure out if £35 is worth it for the extra maps. Especially with BF5 coming out at the end of the year.

Get the 2nd assault map pack and there's a China based one that came out with pagoda as a map. Can be quite fun and different.

I found the other map packs leggy and st.

The new legacy maps are so so. Nice idea but massive even with 32 a side

There are 3 or 4 free downloadable DLC.
Would consider buying it after we get bored

It's now unlocked for everyone without having to do the assignments. You can pick it up on the Operation Breakout map. Have a look on YouTube.

I'd still like to pick up the tags I don't have but I'm not bothered about the bow, I can't kill anyone with it fast enough anyway.

I don't know how to feel about that. I've wasted so much time trying to get jet kills.

I think I'll do it for the camo and the dog tags now as well, at least they're still a bit special.

I didnt see it but Gunner and Hank both saw it in the same game at same time.

You'll love this, only seen it once and the person who was invisible was Pexy!
He definitely wasn't controlling it and wouldn't believe me that he couldn't be seen. Personally I'd be surprised if you can turn this on and off at will.

I need to run through the campaign for a third time to get the last unlock from that then there are 4 silver assignments to do, 7 gold ones, lots of tags I need still and that's before I even think about all the awards I'm missing for modes I don't play... weapon accessories to unlock, I need at least another year smile

I do have the GOL though biggrin
