Having finished the rather 'meh' mass effect andromeda, i'm about to start this, so hope it's ok. Bit of a slog through campaign first, then on to the multiplayer. I didn't really take to that in the beta for some reason, despite loving many BF games, so hope it will stick with some further play this time. Edited by Vortex808 at 01:45:13 26-11-2017 |

I expect a right battering until i find my feet. -
How's the scrap drop rate? -

Registered 8 years agoIt's actually pretty good, I've got back on this since tiring of it around June. I definitely seem to be getting more scrap than before. I'm still non surprised at the massive amount of medics who don't revive people. -
I haven't played for a few weeks so that's disappointing; I love playing as a medic and reviving is the medic's r'aison d'etre. Bien sur.
I'm looking forward to the next DLC; think I'm done with the russian one. -

Registered 13 years agoWTF is this about- playing via EA access and am earning no exp per game and it keeps pushing me to get premium saying i'd have been level 5 if i had it after one conquest round.
It claims premium trials are now active on the home tab. Is this stopping me progressing, or can i not level up using ea access on this at all? Either way it is a load of balls.
Can i stop the premium trial and level up? -

On old maps it works just fine. -

Registered 15 years agoGallipoli huh, 5 operations in and haven’t seen anyone get past the third sector. The combination of dreadnaught and battlecruiser takes up 8 players, seems to make a difference in attacking -

Registered 17 years agoThe new Browning LMG is a blast.... at medium ranges, obviously. If you liked the Perino, this is the same, but with more bullets (and slightly higher damage).
They are both a Benet Mercie with more ammo. -

Registered 15 years agoGot this last week and managed a couple of multiplayer sessions since. Today, afternoon off and absolutely unable to connect to servers. I choose a server and it goes to the Loading Game screen, pauses and then declares “Server disconnected. Connection to EA timed out...etc”.
Managed to connect to one, empty North American server once.
Have done all the bollocks- power cycling router, PS4, pissing about with plug and play, shouting a lot. Internet connection test fine on PS4, open NAT and other multiplayer games work.
What gives? EAlol or what?
Is there a server status page somewhere? -

Registered 15 years agoHate both the new maps. One is just a remake of argonne forest so just a boring grenade fuck fest, while the other would be fun but it's like Dice didn't think to consider sight lines at all when designing the map. -

Registered 15 years agoAnnoyed.
Completely unable to connect a week ago, wasted a couple of hours messing about, never solved it. Then multiple play sessions that were fine over several days even though nothing had changed. Now, a new day, I’ve a couple of hours spare and I’m back to the “server disconnected” messages over and over, cannot play.
Is Battlefield known for this or am I going crazy? EA servers just occasionally refuse you connections? -

Registered 17 years ago@mothercruncher I'm on PS4, London, I've had no problem in joining games. My ping is around the early 20's, some playing as high as 100 or so, not sure if this really helps, but must be frustrating for you! -
What’s with all the pop up in the new maps!? -

Registered 15 years agoI don’t want to give up on it because I can see it’s a great game, but, again, spent two hours pissing about today with it- all the DMZ bollocks, even connecting a long Ethernet cable directly up to the router, endless configuration/DNS shite and no joy.
I bet tomorrow it works despite nothing having changed my end. Lots of others with the same problem and it goes right back through the Battlefield series, just glad I waited and bought it used so EA haven’t been paid by me. It a chance I’m buying the DLC though now
Fuck EA, fuck Dice and and fuck anyone here with a working game*.

Registered 8 years agoI must say the game was pretty damn stable when it first came out, every update they've subsequently made seems to break something, then they put out a fix then break something else. Still, there's so much going on in the game that I'm not surprised. -

Played BF1 much later via EA access (waiting until mp would/should work) and enjoyed it immensely, so am back on for the next one, but i can totally understand your frustration.
May fire it up later on xbox and see if there's issues there too. -

Registered 15 years agoAs the Premium Pass is on sale for £12 on the PSN store, I'm toying with getting it for the new maps. (I haven't had any of the DLC).
Is it worth it? -

Registered 6 years ago12 quid for all the DLC is great value if you love the BF1 base game. I reckon They Shall Not Pass is the best so far and has some cracking trench battles (although I think one map is available to all). It's got my favourite operation and features the battle for Verdun.
In The Name of the Tsar is also great. It introduce proper amphibious assaults on the Albion map which is a cracking map for Rush. Not a huge fan of the operations though.
Turning Tides is half launched and seems to focussed on naval warfare so should be quite different when it's fully released.
I think one more is coming. -
Yup maps very good
