Battlefield 4 (PS4)

[DoubleSix]

On many occasions when people 'think' they are plugging bullets into me they are actually wizzing past, over the shoulder and pinging off the environment.

The game isn't perfect by any stretch but its not as broken as some would have you believe. The famas has an extremely high fire rate, but poor recoil, spread and accuracy. Come up against someone with an AK5C with it's low recoil and pinpoint accuracy and yes you will die at any sort of range.

The dieing behind scenery thing is annoying. Particularly if I'm prone on a roof and someone shoots me from ground level(!). But overall, given the complexity of the game, the good moments far outweigh the small frustrations for me.

I just despise the stinger missiles. I wish there was a way to know whats locking on to you so you can get out of that area before being disabled and then shot out of the sky!!

Morning chaps,

having downloaded the premium map pack last night (as it's half price) I then looked for the 'pistonheads' server but to no avail.

I just entered 'pistonheads' on the search server section, am I missing something?

[With these feet]

I think Sway must have had a good Christmas building Lego.....

[Sway]

I wish! Matt is the chap currently spending dosh on such things...

My psn has died, so unable to get online. It's been with the Customer Support team for three weeks - the best they've come up with currently is to but ps+ again.

[Cbull]

Apparently it's currently being hacked again, people can't login.

[Sway]

It's not that - I renewed my ps+ account, yet despite the cash being debited it won't let me on any of the 'features' ps+ brings (that were free and straightforward on ps3)...

Its a shower.

Oh man! Why don't these hackers leave us gamers alone on the PSN and go and hack something worthwhile like the Sony Corporation....oh wait....;)

We don't have our own server currently, but even when we do we are often not on it! If you want to join in the send some friend requests to some of us on PSN (my PSN name is same as here) and ideally add some PH tags (via Battlelog) so we recognise you.

One word of warning, LemmingJames has said t-bagging is no longer allowed on other PHers

I just had a bit of a lunchtime session and all was well, perhaps it's coming this way soon...

Just don't join any server that Judge has chosen, it will be laggy as hell. If it's one of those rare occasions where he's on foot do not spawn on him or you will die immediately. He will survive though

Send me a friend request. My PSN ID is matt-don. I tend to be on most nights when it's Winter and Summer weekends when it's wet

Judge, you should have heard the foul language being directed our way during that Metro round last night

Thanks guys, I'll clan tag 'PH'.

My PS id is same as on here funnily enough so also feel free to add!

[lemmingjames]

NO i said people where tea bagging just for shooting someone and not doing it in an 'epic' way. I guess your not used to being out of a tank so any land kill is exciting to you

[Mattygooner]

Soooo, found a server dedicated to finding these dam tags, just lots of people walking around the map not shooting each other, some of you lot could even manage a positive score...

[Blue BB]

Managed to get the bow a couple of weeks ago. Joined a tag hunt only server and found a tag on Hammerhead (with a little help from another guy who pointed it out to me). Then switched server to Hanger 31 and after a few misses and some killing managed to get 4 bods with tags into the lift.
Funny thing was there was one of the enemy team with us. So got to the bottom and code was entered and that was it. Remembered to pick up the document on top of the cabinets which opens the phantom assignment.
After using the bow for about 19 mins and getting killed a lot (more than usual) gave up and went back to my trusty Mg4.
If anyone wants to scout for tags and i am on, please message me. Hit and miss though to find one. The one i got (i only have one) was at the sawmill flag on the back of a timber lorry.

You will usually see a few PH'rs online together in the evenings . If you see someone with a PH clqn tag send them a friend request with the lettes PH in the message.

Also have a look to see if we are in Party Chat. Wear headphones if there is anyone else in earshot as the language can get a bit ripe

[thetapeworm]

I finally got some spare time on an evening and my bloomin' Internet died as I joined the party chat (with no mic so I don't wake the little-one).

Have fun in the snow!

I recently one spotted Havoc with a headshot from a DMR. He reported that prior to that shot he was at %100 health. Today I was on the receiving end of exactly the same thing. Quite a few of us have said similar things in the past with other weapons.

By coincidence Levelcap uploaded a video offering an explanation for the phenomenon http://youtu.be/WQavsJEOmBo
