Crashing gone after last patch again, seems like crashing is back each two patches lol.

edit: When did the small ammo packs start resupplying rockets? Had a game earlier I was trying to get ammo from a support guy. Turned out he only had the ammo packs which was ok since I was low on my main gun ammo too. See a boat and switch over to my SRAW out of habit. I knew I was out because it was the reason I was chasing the support around in the first place. As ran out of rockets again and found the ammo pack. Switched over to the empty SRAW and watch them replenish when I picked up the ammo pack. It did not give me more slams though so there's something you only get from the box.

Didn't used to be that way when the game launched so I was confused.

PB gave me a "Restriction: Disallowed Program/Driver" and I assumed it must have been SweetFX. Haven't had a problem since though, so I'm not sure why it booted me. I haven't made any changes since I got that error but everything is peachy now.

Something else is probably causing this. I got this when I had UPlay open when i tried to play recently. Had seen people talking about this restriction but was not too sure what it was about. There are other programs that will cause a similar problem. This is not a ban or even a warning. Its just a program that PB has decided should not be allowed to run in the background. I have no idea as to the reasoning behind this, but it's nothing to be worried about.

Sounds like DICE is finally taking the "netcode" issues seriously.

The 2nd ammo box is the one that replenishes everything. It doesn't take super long to get, but it's a while.

Tickrate Players have been asking whether the tickrate – how often the server will update the game world – in Battlefield 4 will be higher in the future. Though we haven’t got any immediate plans to increase the tickrate at this moment, we are exploring the possibilities of raising the tickrate on specific servers.

^^ That is a real shame. I'm thinking the current Frostbite engine was built with no leeway to adjust the tick-rate for PC and that's a real shame. Hope I'm wrong, but DICE really is doing a disservice to PC gamers and focusing on mediocre hardware of XBONE and PS4. Not looking to start any console-pc war, just stating facts.

BF4 and BF5 will not improve and that sucks for PC players. Hoping the other fixes will turn the BF4 ship around.

Well.. at least they finally said #$@# you PC players instead of dancing around it!

Pretty much! It's a fun game when it doesn't frustrate you with its inherent issues.

Wrigleyvillain · Mar 3, 2014

Well is there a TPU Platoon yet? You can join more than one. I removed the tag anyway; don't want a platoon tag in general. I swear I was getting targeted more by enemy commanders before I did but maybe just coincidence.

Meh, I barely see anyone from TPU playing anymore anyways. Teamspeak has been dead. I bought South Park Stick of Truth so I'll do that for a while.

The mail man goes on vacation and life ends for TPU Battlefield :laugh:

!
You do have to admit though Erocker it makes your job as moderator easier :peace:

erocker · Mar 4, 2014

Nothing to do with him really or the forum. Nobody's playing. Sucks because winter is definitely still here and it's not like I'm going outside or anything. Screw that! lol.

Who plays hardcore servers here?

Me and @MT Alex did in BF3 a lot. Haven't done to much of it in BF4

I know I just thought I'd play troll for a little bit while he was away, but yeah it is dead.
I see Wrig and Alex in the evening and they are the only ones I recognize.

How in the hell do you put up with giant cross hairs?

When you use the scope they disappear.

mastrdrver · Mar 4, 2014

As for the netcode thing, I'll believe it when I see it. The vehicle patch and some other stuff has yet to show up even though it was originally suppose to be out in February.

My surprise was that the packs were resupplying rockets. That didn't happen when the game launched (the last time I used them). I don't know if it's a bug or not.

I haven't play much lately. Tired of getting my ass handed to me. I think I'll run
support for awhile. I tear it up with the M249 on the test range. Hopefully it may carry over to the servers

Wrigleyvillain · Mar 4, 2014

Dude last time I killed you I was sitting in a LAV and saying to myself "who is this apparently blind noob running straight towards me out in the open"…it was you! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

They still suck and it sucks even more that you can't even disable the cross hairs in single player. How hard can it be to code cross hairs on/off?

Sometimes vehicles don't show up as enemies for brief time. It happens more often then I care for. Either that or my blind ass just doesn't see red to good.
Could explain a lot couldn't it? Maybe I should run the color blind setting. Good feedback though. I'll try that.
