They have increased the re-supply time for the grenades. Also reduced the amount you can carry.

They have (to my fking disgust) nerfed the slams. 3 won't kill a tank anymore, depending on the map I could get loads of kills with them. I never had any problems with getting shot round corners but today happened a few times plus random hits from seemingly impossible locations. For myself it has made it worse. Nerfing the slams ffs, still annoyed about that

The resupply time isn't an issue for me, it might even make it possible to capture B on Metro now, I was sat on a supply crate for minutes though rather than more seconds than usual, it wasn't until a team mate passed by and stocked up that my own supply jumped up too.

Had 4 torso shots at close range from the Deagle completely ignored last night too and got shot by someone who was on the other side of a building rather than the usual just around the corner.

Maybe it'll settle down or improve with other servers, I can't say it's infuriated me by making things worse but it hasn't exactly saved the reputation of the franchise yet.

Nothing much has changed IMO, had a few games earlier - highest scorer on other team was from Greece so unsure as to whether theres still the region advantage. Had one game where I went 5-1 up, then the game suddenly flipped and couldnt hit a barn door with a banjo.

Single shotted with basic carbines - not headshots, and had the worst rubberbanding for a long time on the base maps. Probably 15 seconds of replaying the same incident.

When Project Cars arrives I recon this might end up at the bottom of the pile...

For sure, although given BF4 is the only game I own it won't take too long to shift it back again when needed

Just went 31 - 8 on Shanghai on our server... I like this CTE...

Gonna go play Capture the Fag for a bit and see if that game mode has improved at all?

You where crying like a ward full of children after a Jimmy Saville visit last night.

CTF played alot better for me than that heap of st known as CQ

[Jasandjules]

Hmm, they have moved the MComs on some maps. I went wandering over and got shot by a load of people on the map where they never are.......

As for grenades - well that will stop the spamming (which is a shame as I get loads of grenade kills!)....

Close... but no cigar...

a couple of fks were thrown in for good measure..

I dont understand. 1300hrs i went 31-8 on Shanghai.... 1800hrs i went 27-4... 2100hrs i went 15-14.

Pretty sure the servers overload easily when everyone jumps on.

Or the quality of players has improved by then

Noticed several times last night that flags were being taken by 6 - 8 guys on mass. Admittedly last night we were unable to switch teams but when theres several players attacking the 2 or 3 defending stand no chance. There were some pretty decent vehicle gunners out as well.

I have noticed this on other FPS games (COD) and could also be the reason for a lot of my frustration the other night (day of patch release). Obviously later on in the evening the UK / EU player will start to come on and the quality will probably go up.

The day of the patch, EVERYONE that wanted to play the new patch (ie decent players) would have been on meaning the talent of the player was probably higher.

None of this will help me as it will still pee me off when I'm not winning as good as normal. but if someone would like to remind me of this in between my moaning about how cr*p it is i might listen.

Hi all.

Fired BF up for the first time last night after giving up on it months ago due to all the problems.
Found the PH server but could see no one with a PH tag in front of there names,do they not show up on the scoreboard?
I was also wondering if there was a list of PSN names on this thread and whether I can join up?.I have to admit to being pretty crap so play support all the time.

Looking to join the ranks of PH myself and get the tags on so have visibility on the server. Is it Hangingjudge that does the clan admin?

I think support is the best class personally. C4's plus being able to weild a 200 round spray and pray cannon or swap to the carbines is pretty handy.

I tend to find that the PH server is either completely empty or completely full whenever I try to join so I rarely get on - tags should show up though.

Your best bet is to join the PH Clan on Battlelog and then add people from there but there is also a dedicated PSN name thread too:

Thx for that.
Went on the server last night and it was full.
Had a few moments of juddering and skipping about but other than that ran pretty smoothly.
I did notice however that the little graph that shows your connection strength was very weak.

Added myself to the PH platoon on battlelog. Mostly PC guys on there and not the PH logo as the emblem? Will try and get on for a few rounds this afternoon

EDIT

scratch that. Found the PS4 Platoon. Application sent

If your a sensitive soul and dont like swearing/piss-taking etc then not sure youll fit in tbh, or i guess you could join in with Judge and stay dark on chat/not play with us

I have no headset at the moment so could not join in the banter im afraid.
Effing and jeffing all good but I may have to wait till the kids have gone to bed before flicking on the PS4.

Talking of headsets can anyone recommend a good set as the wife is getting a bit miffed with gunfire.
