If anyone is wondering who Hexiciah_Steam is, it's my name given me by my daughter (7 yr old)


10 points if you can tell me where it came from.(no googling though)


Still playing most evenings here.

I still play everyday only afew games here and their
Ahh ok fatty I was actually wondering who it was lol

[Jinx]

I still play on a Friday night (Fadingfool) and nope I have no idea what hexichiah/hexiswossit comes from (I'd guess Harry Potter but that is my standard guess for anything children related) .

[FUBAR]

I've started playing again. Mostly daytime. Will see if I can wrestle my home PC from the kids on the odd evening if you guys are still around.

Spending far too much time on Clash of Clans ffs

"Night Operations" supposedly live today, though im having trouble downloading it - anyone else playing yet?

[Glade]

??? A new BF4 DLC?

I just sorted my cooling (AGAIN), fitted a new hard drive and upgraded to win 10, so... maybe more BF4!

Yep, free this time. Well, its just one map - a night version of Zavod.

Finally got it to download, only had time for a quick look around an empty map - its spooky in the dark/mist, with animal noises around!

Anyone seen this icon before? Noticed it the last few times ive played. Seems to be when in in more graphically demanding situations:

Googled it, but cant see anyone else with BF4 mentioning it. My graphics card (which ives had a couple of years) is an MSI Radeon 6970.
Sometimes it looks like its red rather than orange, but it just flickers on screen.

[MissChief]

Looks like it might indicate dropped frames?

[daddy cool]

Ah, yeah - its means low FPS detected:

So basically what its saying is "time to get the credit card out and upgrade the graphics card"

Hey guys, so I finally got round to getting BF4 last weekend.

Who's still playing this then? Don't see many of the PH platoon online.

Add me if you're still playing regularly: 5piritua1_Beggar

I still try and get on when I can, will be on more regularly though as the nights start getting darker earlier. It's always easier to justify it when it's cold & dark outside!

Lower ur setting and see if it goes away

I have, and it doesnt - even though BF4's own performance test is telling me that i have excellent frame rate!
My mate (with a vastly superior graphics card to me) is also getting the same FPS warning icon, so im not overly bothered now - just looks like a badly implemented feature. Just wish i could disable it in the menu.

[L5WiRE]

I noticed it last night same icons u got even tho I'm running 2x7970 ghz and I got a warning from windows to change display setting from aero to basic it's just windows tryin to get us to upgrade to windows 10
For some reason even tho I've signed out of upgrading to win 10 its still downloading stuff into my pc I don't have automatic updates on

You made the mistake of thinking you knew better than Microsoft what you want!

Close, it's Monster High, she's obsessed with it.

So I picked this up in the origin sale along with Hardline, does anyone have a solution for the sprint/spinning issue?

Apparently it's caused by controllers being connected (even if unused), seems silly to go about unplugging controllers just for this?
