Lucky.

First time trying Naval Strike, operation mortar, REALLY bad lag. Impossible to fly properly. Exactly the same issue that was affecting Lancang Dam. What an embarrassment of a game, so broken!

Lucky to have Naval strike for once PS4 gets something first just purely for not f**king up. They still haven't fixed jets either I can't shoot down the gunship I have to crash into it to shoot it down. Think its time to try Ghosts.

Naval Strike maps are all OK, although not sure how well the carrier assault mode works...the end game in the carrier itself should be tense but in all the games I've had it's a confused little skirmish which is over in a couple of minutes - and certainly on the 360 and PS3 versions there aren't enough team members to split between defending and attacking so everyone tends to just go to 1 carrier and the attacking team then wins.

Needs a bit of fine tuning.

Maps themselves are good though - on one you can even shoot old school cannons from the top of the fort!

That's on Operation Mortar, love the map just a shame I was freezing so badly every few seconds. Might try some different servers today see if that helps, although if it's the same issue Lancang Dam had then it won't help. Awesome map though, couple of the underground tunnels remind me of Skyrim lol.

banther · Mar 27, 2014

I'm on Saturday if anyone fancies a bit of a session.

The missus is away, so I can play.

*after I've hoovered, washed and generally been a man b**ch for 2/3 hours.

I didn't have any problems and actually less crashing than usual, bonus! I'd like to see a 'full' naval map though all taking place at sea with maybe one small island in the middle with capture points.

Anyone got the AWS yet? Seems quite easy to get, I'm going to try for it tonight. Assume you don't have to get the LMG ribbons just on the naval strike maps, or do you?

Ray Gin · Mar 27, 2014

Yeah it's 100% broken on that particular map on CQ, PS4. Exactly the same issues Lancang Dam had.

I really like Wave Breaker, flew a little bird right into the middle of the submarine base haha got a good few kills!

Just until 10.30

Gavin. · Mar 27, 2014

Kk, i'll catch you tomorrow.

Dredz06 · Mar 27, 2014

I'll wait till you're on this time, you know how well that went last week. lol

Are the saves still broken in the campaign?
I completed it twice, on normal and hard and now it's reset itself. I was just going to go and get the one gun I was missing and some collectibles. It appears that I have to start from scratch again.
I also thought that you got guns for Multiplayer after finishing the campaign. Can't say I've noticed them?

Not sure, I've only played the first half hour or so but my save worked, I think the guns you unlock from campaign can still be earned through assignments on multiplayer though, it's the m429 and p90 and i've got them somehow

Brand86 · Mar 28, 2014

Got the AWS last night but not used it yet - did a few kamikaze deaths trying to blow tanks up with C4 as I wasn't being very patient so had a couple of shocking scores! Got there in the end though!

I'll be home and online at about 8.30 tonight, so may be about. Need to install the pack first though.

Yeah takes forever.

I haven't been able to get online until just now.

Ps you can play normal maps while it installs

banther · Mar 29, 2014

Just got two MVPs in a row

Ah nice one, well I will be about in a couple of hours. Need to drag myself away from Titanfall though. I equally suck at both, I just like being able to climb to the highest point of the map

Marc. · Mar 29, 2014

Scratch that - logged on for a game tonight. It's so broken it's unreal. Clipping across terrain, firing a clip into someone at close range, upper torso/head, they lost 39 health. I died with about 5 rounds. I won't be playing this s**t again.

Marc. · Mar 30, 2014

Update - tried to play again tonight. Tried the new pack for the first time. Lasted 30 seconds, was spawn killed twice in a row, and have broken an XBone controller. f**k this s**t game in the ass, it's the worst game I have EVER had the misfortune of playing.

imprezaworks · Mar 30, 2014

Flol, sounds like me.

banther · Mar 31, 2014

I've just put my copy on eBay.

Not only do they have the cheek to keep pumping out DLC on a game that is fundamentally broken but now you can PAY TO UPGRADE WEAPONS. FFFFFFFFFSSSSSSSSSSSS.

That was the last straw. Where's the fun in upgrading yourself if some level 3 noob comes at you with an MG4 or ACE52 when you've had to put 20+ hours in to get there??! Sorry /rant.

Ray Gin · Mar 31, 2014

Been like that since BF3 lol

I have never seen that before.

Went into the store and saw - upgrade carbines for £3.99. And just nah, cant be bothered anymore.

Pint · Mar 31, 2014

I must be one of the lucky few. Apart from a few stalls in the load screens I really don't have the problems everyone seems to be ranting about.

Don't sell it banther. There is still nothing else as good out there. Normal maps seem fine now just naval strike strike ones are fucked. Cannot fly at all its like the warthog is having a epileptic fit ffs. Rest is all good now.

timuss · Mar 31, 2014

The game over the weekend has got worse on PS3 lag left right and centre, staggered movment rubber banding etc.. Moving forward and then finding yourself being somewhere else. Tried router resets and no difference at all.

Gavin. · Mar 31, 2014

I was saying to Liam. the other day, if they could at least acknowledged the issues it would be a start. But instead nothing gets said or fixed either it seems.

Marc. · Mar 31, 2014

Did it in BC2 as well.

It is s**t though, I agree. Completely unplayable at times. I despise it actually.

It wouldn't be so bad, if the stupid lag / clipping wasn't so much of an issue every game. Will I ever play it again? Doubtful. But I'll need another game to replace it!

matt91 · Apr 1, 2014

tonight it seems to be working fine now... last night and the other 4 months it was nothing but lag and jumping.

This is it for me tbh. I recently bought cod ghosts as I was fed up of how broke bf was and what a mistake that was. Really does make you think "wow battlefield isn't so bad after all" lol.

Yeah I dont think I could ever go back to COD.

This is what worries me about Titanfall as well.

On another note one has bought BF4 yet - I think I just got a bit stroppy haha.

Haha, we never even got to play together

Not in that way

Well I've still got it, I think I was too hasty!! I do love your gamertag though, hilarious.

I'll PM ya.

Marc. · Apr 5, 2014

Have to say I'm enjoying the dynamic that online play has now.

Lag, lag, lag, lag, die from behind. Good times.

Lol!!!

on another note, does anyone else find this game almost impossible to play online with almost instantly dying as soon as you come up against someone? I'm certainly no great gamer, so this may have something to do with it, but its got to the point where I've stopped playing it because its impossibly hard. Also, IMO, the are just way too many people on one level to make it enjoyable. Why can't they have a game mode that involves just a few people on one level. Grrrrrrr

Have you tried squad deathmatch? You only play on a fraction of the map but there's less players
