OFFICIAL Battlefield 4 (Discussion)

^THIS

Is kinda sad....

Obviously you are entitled to your own opinions and its not up to me to tell you how you to or how you should play the game but there are honestly so many TPU members that play BFBC2 and BF3. Ive jumped on TS and had a few games with them many times and it is a hell of a lot of fun, but to simply just pre-order the game for PS4 because you prefer to play on a gamepad is a sorry excuse.

Everyone else is getting it on PC so why isolate yourself from everyone else by getting it on PS4??? Just get a PC compatible PS3 or PS4 controller and map the controls.

BF3 was pretty much already configured and ready to go with an xbox 360 controller when the game was launched so I dont see why you cant just remap controls to your controller when the game comes out

Don't really care what you think it is. It feels more natural with a controller to me, because that is how I started out playing it. I don't play with other people most of the time, in fact I only have one person I constantly play any kind of game with. Not only that, just because I don't play with people here...who cares? You act like someone couldn't possibly be a part of a clan or another community. I never played DayZ with anybody here but participated in the thread, guess I'm some sort of nut case. :rolleyes: Along with that, on a console everybody is on a level playing ground both graphics wise and controller wise, which I prefer because it makes it easier for me.
 
I only mntioned the Second Assault DLC once, on the first day of E3 and it was most remarkable for being a timed exclusive for the XBox 1. Today I look up the description on th Official site and it says: This Premium expansion pack will feature four of the most fan-favorite maps from Battlefield 3, redesigned to take advantage of our advanced Frostbite 3 engine and enhanced to include new multiplayer features from Battlefield 4.

WHich maps do you wish to see return from BF3?

Metro?
Wake?

Kharg Island!
 
WAKE - but bring back the old BF2 wake, the wake i used to know...
 
I see people say this but I fail to see the difference. Was was so great/different about Wake in BF2? And true "purists" would want the original from 1942 back! :)

Along with that, on a console everybody is on a level playing ground both graphics wise and controller wise, which I prefer because it makes it easier for me.

A comparatively shitty level but fine. Sounds like you've made up your mind; so be it. Don't expect much console love and respect around here though (for good reason).

Edit: And if one of the four is Metro I think I will cry. I bet Caspian is one...

I'm not sure I can express in words how many fucks I don't give about what other people think of my decisions.

Voice your choice and expect to hear responses, especially when you voice on a pc forum that you are going with console. It's like going to an automotive forum and saying you dislike cars, if you really didn't expect anyone to respond to it, that would surprise me. I don't think any of them responding to you care how many fucks you actually give, it's the internet, no one gives any fucks about anyone else's fucks given on any subject, welcome to being the norm.
 
Ease up on the cussing (warning).
 
Any body else get one of these? (e-mail)

hello,

as a highly dedicated battlefield player, we're enlisting you to join the battlefield 4 alpha trial. The purpose of this trial is to perform a number of server-related tests in preparation for game launch, plus to garner your feedback on the new game.

The alpha trial version of the game will be available to download in your origin "my games library" on june 17. The trial will run for two weeks, with the game available for testing between 18:00 - 00:00 cet (09:00 - 15:00 pdt) each day.

You have been specifically selected for this trial because of your experience with the battlefield series, and because you have opted-in to receive all battlefield communications. (not very RESTRICTIVE CRITERIA)

Please note that this is a highly tech-focused, white-boxed alpha trial that does not represent final quality of the game. Most of the level textures will be white (except soldiers and vehicles), and performance at this early stage of development will be potentially choppy, with possible issues such as server lag and downtime.

If you choose to join this trial, you must agree to not publicly post information, images or videos from the game, or your impressions of the game itself. We have set up a closed alpha trial forum specifically for this purpose - see below for details. Hello,

Well, enough fucks were given to post a response, so that definitely equals some fucks, no doubt about it.

I don't know what your thoughts on the purpose of a forum, but I thought they were usually for discussion.

Any body else get one of these?

I wish.

Second Assault

Also it seems that we get beta access too after ,Remember 2011 when they did June to Sept Alpha, Beta then Open Beta for 3-4 months.

And yes i`m gonna try it on win8 then on Win7 which i should log on and update it been about 5 months since i last did it .......I have a feeling Win8 not supported due to the Blue being worked on.

These are the two announced.
 
Windows 8 "not supported"? lol
 
:laugh:

Yeah no email here either. I haven't gotten much of anything from EA lately; maybe I should recheck my address and settings.

Edit: People at OCN are saying the selection seems totally random.

Edit2: This alpha has solid white textures.

I have a feeling this is going to be the new Free AMD Never Settle Bundle game. xD

Holding out before I pre-order because I am due for a second 7950 soon anyway :)
