Please delete this if there is a thread running already (I couldn't find one in the search).

Due all my old BF3 mates waiting for the XBOX one release of BF4; I am currently playing this as a billy no mates and it's not as much fun. Could we have a list of players who have this for the 360 and want to play with like minded players.

I'm saving my BF4 experience for the Xbox One, I played the Beta and it looks like the 360 is really out of its depth, I know it was just a beta version but it was still very rough around the edges when it should have just been a case of fine tuning.

Hopefully the next gens will be able to make the most of the new graphics/ textures etc, it seemed like every time that sky scraper came down in the beta the game needed 3-4 minutes to recover.

I've got FIFA14 coming with the console and Ghosts on Pre-order, I'll probably get BF4 when I get paid again on Dec 1st.

Too long on GTA. The default heli controls are not the same as BF3 either.
Total noob last night, hitting everything but the enemy, buildings included!

You know it's bad when your squad bail on you .

Not sure if any of you guys would be up for letting me join in with you as I'm utter pants at this and it seems ALL first person shooters!

I played a bit of Black Ops 2 but before that my most recent shooter was...............Doom 2 rofl

The learning curve for me on BF4 steep.

If any of you fancy helping/laughing at me my gamertag is : EVILHOMER40

There are some BF4 players here....

Mainly playing HTDM at the moment to run up my sniper rifles. A few more kills to get my SRR up to grade then will need a decent squad help to get my assault class going.

Appologies for the snub last night swankbaton; i was just finishing off when you invited me in.

I will be on it again tonight; I'll invite you in if you are on.

Everybody is welcome; the learning curve is steep but you soon get the hang of it.

my tips:

Stay close to your teammates
Don't run everywhere
Fire in bursts
Keep low
Team work wins over rambo style everytime.

I need some sort of miracle as I'm already hardwired! Lol

Couldn't even join in a game today, multiple Xbox freeze then whenever I tried to join session in progress with you or my mate who was on I just kept getting a "no commander position" message as the server was full!

Then when I finally got into a game with my mate I had to quit and come to bloody work!

Really appreciated the invites though Mr swank smile

No probs, this game really prefers team play , need a microphone to get the best out of it.
I find it easier to join a friend if I press back then select that person on the left hand side of the screen.

I'd be up for a bit of that this weekend. I'll get my gamertag up forthwith.

When i played the beta i thought the 360 couldn't cope but since i got the game(and i wasn't gonna bother getting it after the beta) i've been really impressed how they got such an improvement over BF3. The maps are really good and well thought out so i'm happy with the 360 and that will do me until the one comes down in price

Well tonight was hilarious.

The C4 on the quadbike trick still works,
Repeatedly smashing the underside of a helicopter onto the bad guy works,
All in all a very enjoyable night, when we actually played the flags we did OK!

Dont know what happened on that last game, as soon as Mrs Baton went on the wireless my Broadbands gone down. Have to call BT tomorrow :-(

Yep, had a riot and I think I'm slowly getting the hang of it! Apologies for missing the first tank with that quad bike hehe

I did have a try at flying a gunship after you left but accidentally barrel rolled it rofl

Overall an enjoyable mix of serious play and dicking around!

Hi,

I bought this game yesterday and have a problem using it on a 4gb slim XBOX 360.

Although the pre install is only 2gb it will not install, I have a 32gb sd as additional memory which worked with GTA5 but will not on BF4! Apparently the 4gb slim memory is flash only which is the problem?

After some research it seems this game will not run on a 360 slim 4gb without upgrading the hard drive, something I am reluctant to do as if I am going to spend more money on hardware it will be on an Xbox One.

Do you think the shop will refund my money?

So if you have the same xbox as me beware BF4 will not work without upgrading the hard drive, best option seems a 60gb £22 off ebay.
