I reinstalled BF3 a few weeks ago and have been playing that again. I don't know what they did to the engine for BF4, but BF3 plays a lot tighter and feels so much better than BF4 does.

I may need to get that, because the game has crashed on me three times tonight. I am astounded that more than a year after release the game is still not stable.

It's always as I am hitting someone, or someone hitting me...then the Windows 'oops' noise chimes in the background.
 
What GPU settings is everyone running?

I've got dual GTX 760s in SLI and an i5 2500k OC'd to 4.3 ghz. What settings should I be using to hit that consistent 60 fps?

I have dual 760s, and I have everything Ultra except for PPA, and I get 85-130fps.....

....when the game runs.
 
I'm running an i7-920 with a radeon 5770, not having any problems that aren't associated with playing against players that have better systems.
 
Sorry, what is PPA?

I just hit optimize in GFE and I'm only getting 60ish with regular drops to 40FPS

Sorry, I left off the other 'A' and was being lazy. Post Processing Anti Aliasing. I cut it off because there is too much glare with it on, and it is hard to see people. It is bad enough playing against people using ESP and low radius aimbot/trigger bots and various other hacks...so being able to see who is shooting at me helps quite a bit lol.

I have my cards overclocked to 1260/7000, and I'm running 1080p, btw.

Silly question...but are you sure you have SLI enabled? You should be getting higher FPS than that. 760 SLI is on par, or slightly faster, than a Titan.
 
Where is the new content? I think I have finally become bored of this game and haven't touched in it over a week. Hasn't helped that Ive been busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest lately, but once I stopped playing, it seems I just dont care anymore and cant bring myself to even fire it back up.

Worse yet is the fact that nothing else available looks very appealing either. The vids for GTA V look awesome, but who knows when that will ever come to the PC.

Final stand ended Beta on CTE. I'm expecting its waiting for console certification. I was half expecting it this Tuesday, but it should be in the next week or two.

*Very sheepish look*

Nope, wasn't enabled. I always forget that gets cleared when I do a clean install of the latest drivers. Now averaging between 105-120 FPS with dips to 80 FPS during explosions.

Thanks! I couldn't figure out why the game seemed like it was so choppy in-game all of a sudden lol.

Going to try turning down PPAA and see if that helps my reaction time...
 
Its like Christmas morning with all these gold battlepacks, I got 100 of them today. Haven't opened all of them yet, got tired of clicking. LOL

Already live. Open Origin, right click BF4, and select check for update if it doesn't download automatically.

From past experience "check for update" doesn't load the DLC. You have to go to the DLC page and download it or best bet is trying to play a new map. I'll check it out when I get home.
 
Windows 10 Technical Preview has been running this game quite well.

How are you guys feeling about the assault and med kit tweaks?The BF4 forums are filled with comments like RIP Assault.More people then not are pretty pissed i guess.

Which map is the one to play on Final Stand?I tried the Giants map and it was nice.

Post the patch notes? I can never get a good list of the change, official "patch notes" read like an ad copy.
