Bf4 Beta
Moderator: Hammer
still not decided.
FPS were ok with the new cats and the game set on auto for the graphics.
The sound seems poor, i have a bit of a cold but even so i expected better than that. Surround sound seems to be in the option but not working. Their were some pretty big lag spikes on the server Terrance and i played on too, again something that will probably be fixed. the 64 player map seems a bit too big, a huge amount of playing area. Not sure how that map will fair in regular play, may well be another map that gets removed from servers fairly quickly. it does look a bit nicer than BF3 in the graphics department. will have another go on it tomorrow but so far it has not won me over enough to buy it.

I've dropped mine down from ultra/high to medium/high now and its must more playable using the beta cat's
Still get the odd bit of lag though.

AMD have released some <a href="http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pa ... river.aspx" target="_blank">BETA</a> drivers which include a BF4 Profile.
I've tried them but they don't seem to make any difference with my cards.
Remember the game is a BETA release so it needs tweaked bug fices etc. Don't make your mind up on this.
For those who haven't pre ordered via Origin like I did. <a href="http://www.simplycdkeys.com/origin/batt ... dlc-bundle" target="_blank">I've just found you can buy a cd key for the game plus the premium pack for £54.99</a>
That's half the price it's going to cost me for the game and premium pack!![Angry :angry:](./images/smilies/angry.gif)

Not sure if its because its not hardcore, not sure if its because I'm bored of the map, not sure if its the graphics, but the game just seems a bit meh to me, if it wasnt for trying to kill terry I'd of gone back to BF3 last night...
I'm not sure how you managed to spend as much as you did H, I've seen 3 versions of the game, BF4, BF4 Premium and BF4 Digital Deluxe, being the most expensive of those at £54.99 and apparently includes everything...

The Premium pack is an add on. It's all the DLC maps that are coming out. You need to purchase this on top of owning the game.Trig wrote: Not sure if its because its not hardcore, not sure if its because I'm bored of the map, not sure if its the graphics, but the game just seems a bit meh to me, if it wasnt for trying to kill terry I'd of gone back to BF3 last night...

Right, so you need Standard or Digital Deluxe, then Premium on top of that.
Apparently thats the same as it was with BF3, I cant remember tbh...
NOt sure about that site either, seems dodgy to be able to get it that much cheaper...

What's everyone getting FPS wise in this?
My FRAPs for a single map on 64 man server
2013-10-06 11:35:49 - bf4
Frames: 71910 - Time: 1801781ms - Avg: 39.911 - Min: 20 - Max: 64
Everything set to Ultra, 2560x1440
Ati 7970 with latest beta drivers
I7 3820 @ 3.9GHz
Game is installed on an M4 SSD
I generally knock it all down to medium for a stutter free experience.
