You can see it in the upper right if you are quick to look.

Yeah, but that is super annoying plus you cant see your killer's health there. It was fine as it was, why change it? GRRRR!

One bright note: I just unlocked the AWS and its a sweet little LMG. I like it better than the M249 and MG4.
 
I can't play this without sound. I hope DICE addresses this immediately because this is ridiculous man.

And thanks for the worst Netcode of this game since release

Naval Strike weapons are unlockable since the new patch. Not on Battlelog yet though...

Played a little tonight, first time since the patch. This is the first time I've felt they went backwards with the latest patch. Everything seemed off, not to mention the obvious killcam glitches.

What guns are out?
 
Sound is messed up on some servers. After a few minutes the game goes mute for everyone. Anyways I never realized how much I like the L85. Was owning people with it while I was trying to get that new assault rifle unlock.
 
I suppose it must have been discussed before, but is there a special voodoo to deal with the disconnect from the server with the UDP 3659 or something like that message? D:

edit: or the "something went wrong" disconnect,

Two games I started today, I got disconnected both times, with the above reasons stated.

I totally agree. I dont understand how they could possibly break so much stuff in one update. 😱

Because DICE. lol

It is appearing that Dice has lost the talent that made them a good developer. They don't talk about the comings and goings of their staff too much but the fact that the Frostbite team is now kept a long way apart and shared with all of EA is going to be having a significant impact. I suspect a lot of core developers have left due to the crappy hours and treatment (its been all over the news for the last few years how badly EA treats its staff) that now they don't have enough experience in the team to make a reliable game.

Its a shame really but its just another dev studio consumed by EA that went bad within a few years. EA is killing all of the great studios.

this is exactly what happens when you have idiot ceo who does not play the game and are making decisions which affects the game.

all the ceo care about is $$$. f**k they already got my $$$ (x3). why should they care if the game works or not.

Source?
 
This game is so broken. It takes half a mag or more to kill someone. Apparently shooting someone in the face multiple times does nothing to their health. I was trying to unlock guns and saw more hit markers than I ever saw only to drop dead before the enemy.

Pushing the large boat in the water by knifing takes forever and just isn't worth the effort. I didn't try the smaller watercraft.

The only good news I can report is I managed to unlock 2 Naval Strike weapons. I now have the AR-160 and SW40. The ACE 23 was good for getting those assault headshots. I'm also close to getting the AWS I think.

Can anyone confirm that health isn't regenerating as quick as it used to? Also, can anyone confirm that holding your breath as a sniper is not working? I tried on test range today and it wasn't working.
 
Unlocked the AA mines but havent used them much yet. I set them up close to the enemy spawn and they were first to fire so they ended up catching all the flares. I guess my team mates enjoyed the easy kills afterwards.

FYI- The assignment says 5 rocket attacks on helos are required. I saw some discussion somewhere that stingers and IGLA wouldnt count, but thats false, as I used the IGLA to unlock them.
