OMG !!!!!!!!!
I gotta finish BF2 and BF3 Asap.

Submarine battles? Aww Yiss

Land Trailer updated

Dam my card wont be able to handle this

atleast this time EA host indian servers

battlefield 4 possible maps. watch the video at 1.01min

N

EA are at it again, amazing teasers and marketing. Can't wait to pre-order this one and 27th March can't come soon enough.

Excited like hell!

N

Can 1 GB GTX 650 Ti card handle this game ?

@noob. yes it will, if u lower the settings.

HD 7750

At 1440x900?

BTW.. Premium edition will be there from day one!! I am guessing it would be ₹1999 or ₹2499, base game will be ₹999.

And I loved the way they distributed the digital download for prebooked copies on BF3. Download was allowed 2 days or so in advance before the game was officially ready for shipping. Which means 1st day gameplay and no waiting for our copies.

Now to the real part,
And I expect the same here too so that no one will miss the amazing (read it as buggy) release everytime (remember the half baked BC2 and the recent server-load-for-single-player simcity?? And this is a multiplayer, so make no mistake by not expecting a 1st day shi%t)

Game looks real nice with some new elements. It would be quite a looker.

S

Now all i need now is to get better at
1)flying jets
2)tanks
3)bikes
4)quadbikes
5)boats
6)compensate for recoil
7)game modes other than TDM

after all this i'll be set to kick ass in BF4 :wink:

^Even I have FC3 on my PC cant play in this shity Acer aspire 4730z need to get a Gaming Rig :cry:

hmmm seems i will have to upgrade my rig again next year with a new card.

anyways watch the AC in smoke, anyone thinks BF4 will bring back titan game mode from bf2142 with aircraft carriers ? they are bringing back commanders for sure.

F

Bf3 is f'king amazing. Bf4 will be amazing as well but. they need to have servers in India, or any other south asian country. game isn't fun at 300 ms ping. which I get at most times.

Also the class system in Bf3 is ****ed up. they should bring back BC2 model.

N

freakinghell2 said:

No. They should bring back BF2 model. That was amazing. BC2 didn't have equal classes. An assault got unlimited ammo, while a medic with extra ammo perk was invincible. BF3 model is not bad, but BF2 model was great.

earlier I was upset that BF4 would release too early and I wouldn't be able to do justice to BF3, but now I have 6 months for BF3. but seriously can't for BF4 to release :hyper:

^^ there are talks of some sort of integration between bf3 & bf4.

DAFUQ did you just say Aircraft carriers!! :shock:

First time hearing it I know there are jets,Humvee etc

^^ if i m guessing it right, commanders will be able to maneuver the carriers like they use to maneuver the tiatans in bf2142. nothing new, but we expect more advanced game mode in bf4. like sub commanders (read squad leaders) commandeering ships in the career battle-group. and not to mention there should be aircraft flying from carrier itself, and after breaching through the boat defenses, attacker should board the carrier deck to initiate final battle to sink and destroy it.

There is something happening tomorrow, 27th full details will be given out.

it will be fun to have 256 player bf4 with all real life weaponry and the modern technological stuff

@the class system is ****, it should be done away with

^^ the max count is still 64 players, anything more is a clusterf***.. 64Players for PC and next gen console, 24 for old gen (PS3/Xbox 360).

EDIT: the only class which I see has a issue is the recon, rest are fine.

And i would like weapons so real time that the bullet can pierce through a body to hit another behind.. Otherwise each time a person will end up only one of his counterparts and the other one standing just behind him will accidentally shoot the enemy and obviously get shot by the enemy behind the one he killed.

128 in each team (however big the map is) is gonna be less fun and irritating/punishing too.

+1, need a new pc... now thinking gtx titan or 8xxx series?

Tonight is the night. BF4 closed preview for press and youtubers. we should be getting some details before tomorrows disclosure.

65 player match is more than enough let alone 128 . Since bioshock is released , i am not much excited for the trailer

More like Battlefield 3.5

F

Not much of a improvement but its still better than all other shooters in the market so.

Anyway, since it doesnt look much different from Bf3 I am hoping my pc will be able to handle it. Waiting for MP gameplay..

Best part of the trailer was definitely the chick at the end :wink:

RCuber said:

they should have at least given c4 to recon. but still class sys in Bf3 wasnt the finest in BF series

Either of bf2 or BC2 class in fine . Since Bf3 was the first game to be debuted @1499 here , i am guessing that bf4 will be debuting @ 1799 for pc .

PS - game is coming in fall 2013 .

RCuber said:

Don't say that. Gives me Dexter chills.

And darn! Thank God it looks as good as BF3! :wink:

MP is where the shyt at. Can't wait for E3.

The graphics, man, the graphics... too good, too good.

*i422.photobucket.com/albums/pp302/nvidiageek/uzada5y3_zps2ff08196.jpg

EDIT: Just saw the reveal gameplay. More BF2 features like using iron sights even with scope attached. The animation's super smooth, loved that in BF3. And I wonder, if this company of 4 soldiers is more like another group of Bad Company. With all the arm clothes or crap looking similar to BC's.

The Destruction 3.0. I'm sold.

loved the trailer....gameplay looks more action packed....similar to COD....more cinematic than BF3. Hope my old pc is ableto handle this one....BF3 was playable...so m hoping this one too should work.

That huge explosion at 9 25, most realistic ever? video game explosions look fake all the time, but this one looked very convincing.
Huuuuge improvement over FB2 though.

+1 on this.. BF is all about MP. If MP clicks i dont bother anything else..

BTW, I never completed or even played beyond half an hr of campaign both in BF BC2 and BF3. All i did is a MP frag fest

I thought it was hovering.

EDIT: On a second note, yeah, it did look like it got stuck. lawl.

get used to irons, sites are for rookies !

doesn't look too different, except graphics and a grenade launcher and a few more.

and wtf is digital deluxe edition ? there were standard and premium edition, now whats this ? :shock:

cyborg47 said:

Your answer is here :-D

So will the premium edition start from Day 1 or will be added later? And Wtf is a deluxe edition. ?
If im not wrong it goes like this.
Standard Edition->Limited Edition->Premium Edition->Deluxe Edition.

Really nice graphics, the iron sights thing was also a nice addition i hope MP also has it. I realised that i have never seen birds in bf3 multiplayer and if i remember correctly not even in single player.

^^ birds are there in Armored Kill

BTW the gameplay footage was powered by the yet to be released AMD 7990! :O

AMD and EA DICE are proud partners in gaming, with a recent history that includes the award-winning Battlefield 3 in 2011. That relationship continues today with the world’s first public demonstration of Battlefield 4, powered by the AMD Radeon HD 7990—the world’s fastest graphics card! Today’s unveiling not only demonstrates the commitment EA DICE makes to state-of-the-art PC graphics, it stands as further proof that the critically-acclaimed Graphics Core Next architecture in the AMD Radeon HD 7000 Series is the best choice for truly advanced PC games.

That's like early access of two days. It will turn into a public beta after that, like BF3 did.

In battlelog ,their is now a poll option "What are you looking forward to the most in Battlefield 4? Single player or multiplayer ? :shock:

like we even care about sp in bf series . When medal of honour warfighter trailer was released , and it shows awesome destruction , everybody fall for it , which was a shitty game . This same thing may happen to bf4 .

everything, except keyboard and mouse. and may be RAM.

if u r not playing bf3 --> in HD, u r not playing it right.

and yah, any intel on how many rs bf4 gonna be tagged at ? saw they have put it @60dolls at gamestop (probably delux ed). so it seems ~3.5k for bf4 base + 1(first) DLC free..... who is pre-ordering ?

The details regarding the Premium and Deluxe editions are still not clear atm.
Although I would suggest wait and get premium if it's avaliable from day 1.

@icebags.. those prices are US prices.. not indian, standard edition will be 999,

1.8k for the base, 3k for premium.

I don't get it people cribbing about graphic card and that their configuration will not be able to run the game in pc....my question

Y u no buy console(ps3/Xbox 360)

Now don't tell me that games are expensive on consoles...the money and storage space you waste on pc upgradation ...not worth it.

You're suggesting that on a Battlefield thread?

Its not the question about running the game, its about playing the game on its full potential. I can easily run BF3 at medium with 60fps.
Medieval graphics, and 24 player multiplayer, not good enough

rcube & cyborg, gamestop has bf3 base version priced @ $19, we get that here @ 1k+ rs. so i highly doubt ea will make it that cheap in preorder phase. eventually it will become cheaper though, after release.

Dude where do you live? EA games in india have always been priced at 1k or 1.5k(since BF3) at release, pre order or not. I don't think EA would hike the price to 3k this fast. The last time EA did that was with dead space and the new Fifa, 1.5 to 1.8k, got a lot of backlash on social network, and they pulled it back to 1.5k. So, no 3k price tag in india, period!

i know they did that, but there is currently lots of hype all around the globe with bf4. if they even price it @50% (i.e. 1.5k), they will get backlash everywhere else and many ppl from abroad will use backdoor strings to get their order from here. they have not yet revealed it in indian origin means they are in hesitating / waiting mode.

^BF3 had twice as much hype if not more than BF4.

BF3 was being released after many years of absence

I went nuts when they teased with Fault-Line gameplay trailer. Because it was hell lotsa different than BC2 and other BFs, they reached the peak with BF3 in terms of looks and feel. BF4 was amazing though, and the maps looked bigger. The particle effects were great. I wonder if it uses PhysX....

R

I am looking forward to look at their MP maps.. Any leaks on this ??

Tomorrow is the Multiplayer reveal

I don't think that BF4 can achieve what BF3 did like what we have seen with many other games. Like I said earlier we don't get signature games very often.

no.no.no.no.no. ppl don't play battlefield for sp. and the problem is dice want to improve the 6 hr sp part too, hope that does not hamper multiplayer part.

what are the additions in Frostbite 3 over Frostbite 2??

one is teamplay, realistic graphics...wat else?

Needless to say that's utterly wrong! :thumbdown:

One of my cousins loved the campaign in 3, he wasn't even interested in the multi. Just the way there are people who totally ignore the SP in BF game, there will be some part of the audience who won't be interested in the MP.

what? ppl buying a 1.5k standard edition game for 6 hrs of singleplayer mission ? many ppl who bought bf3 did never even cared about sp. but dice plans to make sp more appealing, just to get those single player fps gamers out there. hopefully they don't screw mp for that.

bf2, bf1942,bf1943, bf2142 didnt have single player missions, except just practice maps.
only band company series and bf3 have single player mission i think.

Yeah, looks like they bought the 'spot' mechanic from the MP to SP. Hopefully, that will teach a lot of idiots who don't spot enemies in the MP.

12% of 15 million gamers aren't a minority, so dice cannot ignore them. I mean, who wouldn't try the SP campaign with that kind of engine

And you can't rely on those kind of polls all the time.

if sp is priority, purchasing MoH/FarCry/Stalker/Wolfestein/Stalker/CoD makes more sense. seriously, spend 1.5k for 6 hrs of sp enjoyment (that too with limited features) ? :blink:

I know, and I agree, but that doesn't mean people won't play the SP. Its a good marketing tool as well. If it wasn't for those early battlefield 3 SP gameplay trailers, the game wouldn't had got all the hype.

The game has not even been fully revealed and DICE already has an expansion pack named 'Drone Strike' under development.

icebags said:
no.no.no.no.no. ppl don't play battlefield for sp. and the problem is dice want to improve the 6 hr sp part too, hope that does not hamper multiplayer part.

Don't care about MP, actually never had.

some ppl saying multiplayer preview is coing in may, to build up another hype after 1-2 months.

Thank god.

Battlefield 4 won't use motion controls because they are a 'gimmick,' says DICE exec producer.

The article title is slightly misleading though, he says motion controls won't work with the game they are making, and not that they are an outright gimmick.

Finally wise words from mouth of developers.

The BF4 demo ran on a 7990.

With that in mind, the 7990 will be moving from officially unofficial status to just outright official status. Ending their GDC presentation, AMD’s final item was a tease of their official Radeon HD 7990 design, with word that it’s coming soon. Real soon in fact, as we later found out DICE had been using some of these 7990 cards to power their Battlefield 4 demo elsewhere at GDC.

As this is a teaser AMD isn’t saying anything about the card beyond the fact that it’s a dual Tahiti card just as the unofficially official 7990s were. But even from the few pictures they’ve strategically provided we can infer a few things.

Duh, Watch Dogs already looked slightly downgraded during its PS4 reveal.

Yeah, but the difference is much more extreme in this case. Plus, the W_D preview was running on a high end PC with PS4 textures during the reveal and not on a PS4 itself.

Dude BF4 was insane!! I don't mean it was innovative, but it looked insanely real. Dice's VFX guys did a kickas$ job.

H

TBH, i stopped being impressed with realistic looking games soon after idTech 4 came out. At this point it feels as natural as the progression of technology and these thing start looking dated in 2 - 3 years. BF4 to me looks more like "Super Battlefield 3 Sigma Deluxe Edition G HD Ver." than an entire new game.

Stylization/ Stylization + technical prowess still continues to impress me though.(eg. Capcom's Deep Down)

well you can't expect completely new gameplay or breakthrough in graphics, afterall its a military shooter

H

I don't expect entirely new gameplay, but I didn't expect a COD style rehash either. They could have done things like a new setting, new modes, changing the gameplay to differentiate from its predecessor etc. There's quite a lot of variance in military shooters too. Compare BF1942/BC2/BC2:V/2142/3 etc. they don't feature entirely new gameplay but they don't feel like rehashes either. BF4 on the other hand looks like a COD style rehash of BF3 so far.

Frostbite 3 is really starting to show its muscle in this game. It has the ability to completely outshine Crysis 3 in visual fidelity.
The 17 min game play trailer was absolutely jaw dropping with cinematic sequences unlike COD. BF 4 still gives the player full control.

Its going to be a show stopper at E3. Realistic physics, solid shooting mechanics and insane visuals are its usp.
Frostbite 3 is said to be one of the early engines to use the HSA architecture of PS4, implementing its physics engine.

Not trolling, the game looks downright terrible. Completely devoid of any aesthetics. The gun models look good, but the environments are reaally bland, even for a military shooter. And is it just me, or are most of the textures missing?

With the way EA releases their games, its gonna be quite a beta (BF3 was a better release though than BF BC2, a half baked cake)

Looked good to me, but the map was a little too big. It wasn't as chaotic as the battlefield 3 conference matches.

^^ i am sure there will be close quarter maps as well. that sanghai gameplay appears to be "rush", no ?
and they seems taken away the suppression thing.

and ummm will i be able to play commander from my micromax funbook ?

They certainly upped the destruction in the new BF. The game looks great too.

I was looking forward to pre-order it, but no I doubt it.

watching the angry sea sp gameplay, it seems they may introduce naval warfare in mp as well.
maybe there will be several ships including AC with FA's and task of either team with be to destroy opponent ships just like capturing flags in conquest maps.

i am sure if its like that, it will be an overwhelming experience.

you don't need a killer rig to have a visually appealing game, what I'm saying is having the choice to get better graphics if you wish to. The crysis series looks good with mid-range graphic cards and amazing with High-end ones. BF4, sadly is a reskinned BF3.
EA is cashing in on the popularity... :twisted:

^Expect pretty much every game from now on to feel like a re-skin of older (2011-13) games 'cause they've peaked, only thing left is the CGI-quality graphics.

Crysis 3? its raping most of the super high end systems out there. Not sure where you get that mid range part from. The backlash for crysis 2 was the only reason they pushed the visuals more than ever, and what's their fanbase? 3 million? Battlefield 3 has more than 15 million players, and the game already pushes a lot of graphics cards to their limits, it'd make no sense to push the graphics so much and very few people get to enjoy them.

I play BF3 and Crysis 3 on my laptop with a GT 650m on medium-high settings......it runs fine. anyone with a GTX 660 or 7870 can play Crysis 3 on high settings with fxaa in full HD. what I'm saying is those who have high-end gfx should have the choice to play with better visuals....
visually BF3=BF4 and Crysis 3 > Crysis 2.......

So I'm not the only one who thinks BF3 is taking the place of Call of Duty. It seems that the only improvements are multiple weapon sights, commander mode (which couldve just been added to BF3 as addon instead) and more destructible environments.

Dude, I believe in realtime gameplay, not trailers. The visuals are not much better than BF3, only slightly [like COD6 to COD4]. The biggest improvement is the destructiveness of the environment. Character animations are identical, as is the core gameplay.

Good for you then

That's realtime gameplay btw, no rendered stuff.
But expecting a BF2 to BF3 jump is kinda stupid, DICE peaked with BF3, and the improvements they made with this one are great. Character animations are improved, trust me, I'm an animator

Facial models, body animation, lighting, destruction, visual effects (Insane!, and those explosions!

), the scale, ton of improvements in all of them.

That gameplay is from the campaign, the campaign always looks better than multiplayer....check out this scene from BF3 campaign , it looks amazing, the smoke and all. nowhere in BF3 multiplayer we have such instants.....comparing bf3 & bf4 multiplayer they look similar, except the falling buildings.

BF3's multiplayer looks good, but the single player definitely looks slightly better. Maybe because BF3 MP's maps are much bigger and there is more activity going on.

BF4 Graphics are not phenomenal change from BF3, gameplay is better and that's what I want.

Im planing to buy when its available, Asia servers expected?

500 for pre order. 1k i will have to pay when i go to get the game. Or more if the price is higher. It is a pretty famous retail shop.

Hmm.. so you reserved a copy for you. Well you can say it as pre-order, but it is not

I would be disappointed if there aren't any Indian servers. Playing at 250 ping is not so fun.. Sigh...

I never get <200 ping in BF3

I'll get the free DLC. It is a preorder !!

Pretty much guaranteed to happen, since EA has pretty much said that prices will be in line with global markets.

I'm skipping ALL EA games from now on.

So 3499 INR it is. No thanks EA

as expected, nothing abnormal.

a highly successful game of 50-60$ -> 3499Rs for. will wait till premium/decent offer comes out.

Exactly. Check other global forums, see reddit, there a lot of people raised voice against EA. But still they dont even care. Even there are some official EA account in reddit. And this petition is nothing to them. Hardly 200-300 people will sign.

Okay that's just retarded. There are tons of videos on youtube that captured way more awesome moments, and they don't make a bloody fuss about it.

wow just wow , totally awesome , day 1 buy for me . only disapointment is that they have already announced premium maps before the game launch , but i guess that was expected .

@rcuber - what about u?

^^ Will pre-order next month also will buy Premium. that will keep me going for another two years

i always complain about the naval battle in BF3 , it actually doesn't exist . People just use boats to transport from the base to the land . Always wanted one or two map to focus more on naval gameplay , wake island was closest but still it was not that good . Happy to see the trailer full of naval battle .

Holy shyt! That Paracel Storm trailer made me have all kinds of excitements. So much so for boycotting. EA sure does know how to extract money. And my money is extracted.

Sorry, guys. EA won (for me).

Metro, Caspian Border, Gulf of Oman and Firestorm(not %100 sure) are coming back in second assault DLC. footage were seen in the above videos. The new features shown as a part of Levolution is fantastic. car alarms, metal detectors, cutting off power to a room, awesome.

^ Wow you can control ships!!! :-o

Am I the only one who thinks the game looks significantly improved, I kinda brushed off the game as 'same old game with new engine' the way it is with the cod games including ghosts. But BF4 definitely shows a lot of improvement, the humans model size for example, the proportions look more real this time.

You have to wait for 2-3 years for a price drop

BTW who all are buying this game check some online site like gmg/Amazon. Some time they provide some discount on new release games. It is better to buy from those site after the price increase rather than Flipkart/Nextworld, if you dont care about the downloading data .

Will the indians get the dedicated servers? or are we still the second class people playing in the other asian servers?

can I run this game on low-medium settings at 60 fps on a 64 player map on my config? i really want to buy this game cause i couldn't play BF3 and all the trailers and the game play videos look great...

Your config looks fine. Btw, you couldn't play BF3 because you couldn't get the game or your PC didn't support the game?

Dedicated servers were available when BF3 released, but those indian servers were shutdown later.

I think u can easily run the game on medium settings. All you have to do is to switch off the anti-aliasing and you probably can run the rest of it in high settingsd as well.. Overall, u can play the game for sure.. Try it out on beta if it is open for public.

HOW TO GET BF4

Login to Steam > Add Game > Add a Non Steam Game > Browse your bf3.exe

This will add Battlefield 3 to your steam library. Now right click, Battlefield 3, take property, replace 3 with 4. Done. Enjoy

I recall people going gaga for access of Beta without actually knowing how it works. EA advertised the pre-ordering MOH warfighter/BF4 will get you beta access. I speculated that everyone will get Beta access but just a few days late. simply put you just have to wait 3 days for the Open beta access.

Oh yes.. i am aware of this since i preordered BF3 myself

cant believe its already 2 yrs that BF3 is with me. The best part about preorder from origin was that BF3 was available for download three days in advance to the actual release date.. By that it was as good as getting the game in the very next minute that they announced it live.

Hope it will be the same with BF4 too and also hope it wont be a disaster like BF BC2 release and Sims 3.

Origin gives good discount from time to time . Just look at Dead space 3 , its a 2013 title . and still you can get it with humble bundle . Best time to get bf4 + premium would be during christmas sale , or origin anniversary sale . IF you guys have patience , then you can get game much much more cheaper . Many of my friends have pre ordered the game ( i think from GMG) at 45$ = Rs 2835 , still rs 700 cheaper .

Currently $70 is cheapest price you can find on internet for BATTLEFIELD 4 + Premium pack.

$40 for BATTLEFIELD 4
$30 for Premium
.. Battlefield 4 (EU) + China Rising + +

rakesh_ic said:

yes its an open beta . Premium member will get few days early access ( most probably 3 days) , and just like bf3 , it will be open for 10 days /

Easily on medium-high setting , although your processor might bottleneck in 64p heavy map during some levolution , still you can achieve good frames with nvidia 660 .

N

Darn, I'll wait for Premium Edition then, when I said my money was extracted, it wasn't literally but that would happen, and will. Danke, cyborg47.

And yeah, this looks more polished. I've noticed that they've changed animations too, the running, walking animations. And man, the arsenal looks phenomenal. Very good collection of weapons.

Bu... But what if next game's BC3? I'm more interested in that. :<

Deluxe edition give you only 3 golden battlepacks as opposed to regular edition, pre-ordering the standard edition also give your the first DLC for free. if you want cancel that and buy regular edition. use the extra Rs.500 in for Premium if you want to buy that.

It took 9 days to me to download BF3 (19.91 gb) in my 512 kbps (first 6gb@1mbps)

Around 17 hrs of downloading and only 46%(9.5gb) is done.

Btw how much space does all the dlcs of bf3 need in addition to this 20gb?

I have never played bf3 and this is the first time that I am dloading it.If I feel that this game is good, I will not cancel my pre-order of bf4 deluxe edition from flipkart.

Here is the method :-

Note! Read whole OP first before doing anything & please keep discussion on topic - Getting good deal on Bf 4! Note!

I know there is already thread about from where to get cheapest copy of Bf 4, Bf 4 DDE and/or Premium. I think that demo will encourage some of doubters to pre-order game, especially with good deal, so I think "How to..." -OP is needed. This OP will be based on my "old guide" in another thread and focuses on gray area purchasing.

If you have information about good deals that don't require proxy / VPN drop a line and I will update intel to OP for everyone to easy viewing! You get credit, naturally.

From where to get cheapest deal with Proxy / VPN?

1. Mexico

What is costs?

From Mexico it costs you 1 048 MXN if you purchase DDE + Premium. That is roughly 60 € or yours equivalent.

When is money taken from my account?

Origin usually bills yours account / CC on pre-ordered games release date. They also may bill you when something like beta goes, if it's part of bundle, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

Okey, but I don't want play some hablahabla language version of the game. Does it come in English?

Yes, it's multi-lang version of the game and comes with English support.
*i.imgur.com/nJkyAdv.jpg

Will EA change it into Spanish only at some point?

It's extremely unlikely and only reported cases of game being language locked has been with Russian keys. People have purchased from other regions, like India & China, and even today they play with English versions. If EA does change it to Spanish only you have strong case for refund, at least in EU.

Can my account get banned for this?

There has been people claiming that theirs Origin account has been banned after e.g. Bf 3 Premium purchase from India, BUT there has never been any proof shown by claimers to back these claims up. Also on Finnish forum, MuroBBS, couple people read whole EA / Origin EULA and there is no mention about use of this method where Valve / Steam EULA forbids this method.

Possibility of getting account banned is extremely low and EA don't have proper basis for ban as theirs own EULA don't forbid this action. Still it's yours personal choice to do Proxy / VPN purchase and possible consequences are on you and you alone!

How to Proxy / VPN then?

1.1 Enable proxy, just example list of available proxy servers

1.1.1 How to enable proxy for browser X? Just google up e.g. "Proxy settings for Chrome"

1.2 Download FlyVPN and use Free Trial to connect into Mexico

2. Access www.origin.com with browser. Store is right when it's in Spanish

3. Add products to shopping cart. Mexican store for some reason shows $ [USD] as currency sign, but it uses Mexican Pesos [MXN]!

4. Enter shopping cart and proceed for checkout

5. Disable proxy!* Login to Origin account to which you wish to purchase game to

6. Disable! proxy!* and fill out payment information. Use legit information, don't spoof up any Mexican addresses

7. Finish transaction

Disable! proxy!*

This is very important thing to do. Doing it at step 5 is optional, but at step 6 it's MANDATORY to do before filling out payment information and sending it over to Origin. Disabling VPN isn't mandatory as it's a lot more secure connection, but some prefer disabling VPN connections before sending payment information.

I made purchase, what now? What I should see?

Bf 4 DDE + Premium looks something like this
*i.imgur.com/QTZ57Uw.jpg

Order history looks something like this
*i.imgur.com/5N1cZpl.jpg

Although this is a very safe method , and several of my friend have bought bf4 using origin MX , But do everything at your own risk .

1 mexico peso = 4.87 INR

Digital deluxe edition is 4k here which is 800 bucks over the MEXICAN origin store, but we get full game on the dvd's as opposed to complete dload of the digital edition.

Game should be around 12-15 gb without dlc , i think its worth getting digital edition for that price .

Well i hope EA reduces price of BF3 after BF4 launch as i have yet to play BF3.

I think it would be around 25GB and not just 15GB

Pre ordered BF4 Standard from Mexican Origin now. I'm so excited

Edit: I'd like to thank the person who posted instructions on the previous page of this thread

Bf3 was just 11gb ( without any update and dlc) , so the 30 gb requirement is with all dlc + patches . I am pretty sure bf4 will be around 13-15gb ( also no coop is there) .

I am sure you did the right thing . hopefully more member will follow this step . This is the best way to protest price hike in india

I'm actually wondering if using VPN for BF4 purchase was a good idea !

They won't ban my account right? I have around 10 games in it :-(

No its safe , most of the people from australia buy their game using vpn. Majority of the people were buying simcity from india origin, thats why ea removed the preorder from our store.

Alright then :-D

I was worried because I saw a lot of threads which said Steam was terminating accounts which used VPN to buy games at a lower cost. Din't even see one thread about Origin doing so.

:Sigh of relief:

A

Umm.. I also pre-ordered . Thanks to topper

But only 50+50 = 100 Rs deducted.. :chinscratch:

Mostly they will charge when they release the game.

Must control the itch to order BF4. So far doing good.

I was controlling.. iittopper made me lose my control

By posting how to get it for 2.4k .. (Which is still too much

)

Now all I do it stare at the watermarked picture of Battlefield 4 in my Origin :lol:

Even I had hatred against EA and decided to boycott his game, but this evil iittopper. Even I did not consider to check if my laptop can handle this game. :facepalm:

iittopper you are the reason whole TDF is gonna be playing BF4 this winter

lollz , just helping my fellow gamers

Haha. Do let us know if you come across any other stuff like this ;-)

now if i dint pre-order bf4 it would be very well a shame to me and my rig. So did it this evening.

3.5k or 2.4k?

Stock version at 3.5k for now, at least in the indian online stores. Add another 3k for the premium, making it a 6.5k

Guys where and when can i download the BF4 beta on my PC ? Is there any special requirements to be eligible for downloading BF4 beta ?

^ have beta access ? bf3 premium users & bf4 pre orderers (probably deluxe) have it.

Exclusive Beta starts on 1st Oct, i.e., for those people who have BF3 Premium/Preordered BF4/MoH Warfighters.

From 4th onwards its open beta, anyone can play it.

size is ~6 gigs..

Guys, should I pre-order the digital deluxe edition from origin to get early access to beta or should I try the open beta first and then order the game? Is the game worth the money?

It will be available to all after 4 days or something.

Downloading beta now , if you are non-premium member , and you want to download now , then you can still download the files from other source .
Edit - Pre-load is now available for everyone that did not see the BF4 Exclusive Beta in their Origin “My Games” Library. You’ll be in the squads that are first to fight on Oct. 1st.

Will the downloads be same for beta and original? I mean do I have to download from fresh when the game released? or it will add the data on top of the beta? My banwidth 10 GB/month :facepalm:

digit1191 & rock2702, Kindly refrain from discussing piracy related information in the forum

For your kindest information, that's not piracy. Did u even go and look what's there in that torrent file? It's BF 4 beta game files.. Just like installed game files u should paste in your game directly.. It's not piracy. This is what pisses me off..

And I asked him to download it because we don't have access to preload from Origin. So if we download the game files from there we can start playing the game at 4th itself. Please go take a look for yourself before blaming.

First of all understand that Torrent is not piracy. Download copyrighted content from Torrent is. It's not piracy if I download game files which im going to play legitimately. It's the same as buying key online and using a friend's CD to install the game

Edit : if Rcuber was my neighbor, and I got the game files from him on 4th, u would call that piracy as well? Gosh..

There were a few at the start and eventually was closed. These were re-enabled a few weeks back and then again went back to the oblivion.

If I am correct, there are some issues with the norms running these servers and they were forced to close.

Yep, as expected, not that much of a change. The graphics look more or less the same, a bit on the good side though. Halfway I felt like I was playing BF3 End Game. The Levolution is bullcrap I tell ya. Another gimmick from EA, the building falls to the ground the same way everytime, only thing is that we can make it fall anytime. And I also think the ship coming to the shore will be an awe for the first time and then it kinda gets irritating. Gunplay is same as before.

So yea, I'll wait for BC3.

Let me tell you something .. take it with a pinch off salt and rat poison.. read what I have said below and put them in your dumb minds. Read this 10 time. Read them as if I am screaming on your face with a megaphone.

INDIAN SERVER ARE THE WORST AMONG ALL. THEY ARE NEVER COMING AND WILL NEVER BE STABLE. IF YOU HAVE BSNL OR IF YOU ARE NEVER GETTING ANYTHING BELOW 200 THEN CHANGE YOUR ISP OR STOP PLAYING BF3/BF4. IF YOU ARE GETTING ANYTHING BELOW 180 PING TO OUTSIDE SERVER THEN THAT IS THE BEST YOU WILL EVER GET AND STOP COMPLAINING. EVEN IF YOU GET 10ms PING IN INDIAN SERVER THE EXPERIENCE WILL BE CRAP AND I HAVE EXPERIENCED IT FIRST HAND.

PS: use of insults is to make sure the reader get really offended and remembers what I told, if I tell calmly they keep asking the same thing again and again.

Indian servers will be faster for most (do a ping flipkart.com, they were hosted at netmagic data center), but they won't give us as bandwidth in india is not cheap and only few game server providers are allowed to run it. Even if they get servers from india, they won't get much sales/profit.

my config very similar to yours...so please tell me how did it run on you machine?

also what about the pings? i play dota 2 and i get around 60-70 ping to SEA dota 2 servers (as far as i know they are located in Singapore)....i couldn't play bf3 so really want to play this game

Anyone still buying the game after realizing that there are no indian servers, and reading the mediocre feedback from the beta? I'm just curious what your reasons for buying the game could be.

I have purchased bf3 but due to pathetic ping I cant play the game even once ... so I amm not going to download beta or purchase the bf4

It run fine with beta drivers installed . 30-35 fps @ high-ultra setting on 1080p . SO i am expecting 40-45 fps when game is released . Although this game depend highly on processor just like bf3 but still performance is acceptable .

Who need indian server when i am getting good pings on other servers . I am getting ping in range of 40-200 in most asiam servers . And even if there is a indian server , there are three problem with it .

1) It can be shut anytime for unknown days .
2) Most of it remains empty or half filled .
3) The people who plays in indian server play less and abuse others more .

People were also disappointed with Bf3 beta , but after playing caspian border , their were hyped again . Now this map is medium size without much focus on vehicles ( no jet , buggy etc) . Wait till paracel storm is introduced in beta :mrgreen:

I preordered my copy of BF4. I loved the levolution, larger maps, water shcematics, more scope for destruction varied vehicle counters just by the demo they game during the launch.

Also, for people who do not understand what levolution mean to the map and the structural change, this is going to be a pass.

IMO, this is what BF3 should have been but I am still ok to take it after 2 yrs of paisa vasool gaming on BF3.

Pings and lags are individual problem so this doesnt effect me as I have better ISP to back me up.

Good decision considering your ISP issues.

Well i pay 1000rs including tax for 2Mbps upto 18gb and 512 thereafter it feels like a rip off(MTNL)

I pay 750 per month and get 350 ping :banghead:

Don't worry brothers, both hyderabad and chennai have got some nice internet speeds, soon you will do too, patience.

What time is battlefield 4 open beta available for download? How to access it?

I think it'll be available at 1.30pm today. Just refresh your games list and you will find it there.

No. I was playing today morning, lot of ppl are still playing

what ping are you getting? also what settings are you playing on?

yes lot of people are there in bf3 still , and many have come back from bf4 beta to bf3 multi saying that it is not better than Bf3

Does the game work on my config, except with a different graphics card, 8600gt?

may be at low in an ultra low res of something like 640x480 , considering bf3 was hard to run with 8600gt so BF4 will be more harder and as it is a beta the performance would be more uneven .

I usually play in German servers. 250 ping.

Resolution : 1600x900
Settings : High.

I'm talking about BF3

is the link for download open?

Guys i still can't see BF4 beta in My Games in Origin.When will we get to download the Open Beta ?

BF4 is just fine, it not too different from BF3 as per mechanics, but differs how one plays as squad. weapons are different. but attachments are a issue with Battlepacks. Levolution is actually good, i'm not talking about the skyscraper. there are numerous "micro levolution" in game. like alarms and metal detectors, these have saved me number of times. also the foot steps.. man .. its detailed. I could determine where a guy ran and hid just by listening to the foot steps.. vehicle round reloads is a good change. all said.. price tag is too high.. I might not get the game at release at all.

You are right my friend.The only wired connection available here is bsnl bb.I am on the 950 uld plan right now.Airtel 3g gives great speeds but the tariffs are just too high, 10 gb for 1500.

also i am getting good fps in high-ultra settings but the game is stuttering a lot...what can i do for this?

Loads of issues.I can't even get into a game.Always freezes on the load screen and then crashes with either a black or white screen.Everything is upto date and lots of people are experinecing this issue.

Try the latest beta video drivers for your graphics card.It solves the problem to a great extent as I have heard. Also, win 8 performance is better than win 7 for this game.

Finally downloaded the beta

Is there any change in frames per second if we watch the game as a spectator as oppose to playing it? I mean to say, will I get the same fps while playing and while spectating?

I too feel the same.Played 2 rounds on my rig at everything ultra and did not feel any lag or chopiness.Game looks beautiful @2560x1440p at ultra settings.

Though didn't like the map in particular.Looking forward to new maps in the actual game.

^ a little, when i play 64p map . Fps go to 25 but it remain smooth mostly. Since our cpu is weak , we wil face this fps dip at ultra setting. But dont worry final game would be bug free.
I remembered , when bf3 beta was launched, then i used to get huge stuttering and lag on caspian border map. So when i got the game, i directly jumped into same map, and bam ,..,.. no lag.

Guys I am having G2020 (intel) +HD 7750 DDR5 1Gb Gfx. Will I able to play battlefield 4 on medium setting.
Resolution 720p.
4GB ddr3 RAM.

I will get better Net connection to play Bf4 if it works well even on medium setting?

yup sure ... I can play on 45 fps with high-ultra settings at 1080p so I am sure you will do great .

It doesnt even look as great as BF3 even on ultra ... but it is a beta so eh ...

P.S. i have seen people having far less problems with the games are the ones with AMD GPU's

But BF4 Will be cpu hungry like Bf3 and I am Having Dual Core G2020. So Will it make any difference..
My Resolution is 720p. so if it works just playable on med. details then i am fine

i am getting huge lag. i had to turn to medium settings but still there is lag

If BF4 is solely CPU dependent on FPS then I am very happy man... Coupled with HD7770 I think I can get 30fps minimum.

As its just on beta, please dont assume on graphics front just yet.. As per the trend BF3 beta was far more worse looking when compared to BF BC2 version (which was running hot then).

The graphics is somethnig that we can leave it to the final release

ghouse12311 said:

There are issues with beta run.. The game crashes as well. I have experienced a crash once but my frnd gets crashing every now and then.
Stuttering is a common problem too and it loooks to be some typical beta issues.. shortguns are highly OP and each hit from the shortgun almost gives the feel of an earthquake

My take on the overall game -

Pros::
1) Maps (particularly in domination mode) looks interesting with lot of nice strategic gameplay elements.
2) Running has improved a lot as it is difficult to run and gun at the same time as pressing shift doesnt insta boost speed and instead we pickup speed gradually.
3) Battlepacks are a nice addition, missions make it competitive among frns for long lasting and replayable appeal.
4) Levolution is fantastic. Even the rubles of a destruction are destraction enough to slow someones movement and even can be used as covers.
5) Assists of 90+ damage is treated as kills.. Amazing.. now we dont miss those kills with 99 assists as in BF3

Cons::
1) Guns arent properly powered. Might be a beta issue.
2) There is a learning curve (though short for the seasoned veterans) for even the veterans of BC3.
3) Guns and maps are favouring Assault at the moment, engineers and supports looks like being ignored. May be maps added further in release and the weapon loads will make it better.
4) Knifing is yet to be refined. Hoping to see it cleaner in the final release.

The pings are obviously correct.. You can see them ingame too when u press tab to see the teams.

Can you explain the "delay" you are talknig about ?? If you meant it to be lag, you can check or experience it yourself while in game. If you are stuck briefly or you see the enemy spotted in flashes, both in mini map or directly can be termed as a lag.

Usually pings till 200 are said to be pretty stable on BF3/4 games but anything above 300 shows its true colors of slight lag to bigger lags/latency issues.

Yes, I am talking about the lag which happens when you have a high ping with the server..

the problem with my game is that when I just stand still it shows 45-60 fps..but when I move around,try to shoot,zoom through sniper etc fps drops to 5 and then comes back again to 45-60 and this is happening constantly and the game is totally unplayable for me....i changed all the settings to low and still i am getting this same problem...even in high-ultra it show 45-60 fps and goes to 5 fps

Try updating your GC drivers.
The problem you are refering to is nothing to do with the stuttering (stuttering happens to all of us - its the beta issue) or the lag. Its an FPS drop issue mainly due to your config. I reckon your CPU is also playing a part in this as i3 effectively has only 2 cores and I think BF4 is looking for 4 core processors. If its the GC driver issues, it will be rectified if you install the latest drivers.

Overall, AMD cards are better for BF games and has been performing better on all the multiplayers in BF series so far.

if you have HT enabled then disable it and check.

Even I'm getting constant stuttering from 85 fps to 5 fps. This has nothing to do with your GPU or CPU config. Apparently the issue is being caused by Windows 7. The beta has a bug which increases your CPU load to 100% for Win & users. Win 8 users are not facing such issues. So for me, currently the game is unplayable.

Stuttering is a common word and i have given an example of short gun producing earthquake kinda effect in my previous posts.
Lag i have explained already. Frame rate you are experiencing.. what else is there to explain anymore

lol.. they arent any high fundoo jargons brothers (just dont treat them as one). lag is caused coz of network issues, framerate drop due to h/w issues, stuttering was part of a buggy code from the developers..

got massive FPS loss in the last round I played.. gotta check again.

You cant compare this with Crysis simply because Frostbite uses CPU cores more than any game.

Also because they are of different genres of fighting games and engines.

However, rest assured that the actual release will be much much better than this buggy beta (saying this from past experience BF3 beta vs BF3 final release on day 1)

Betas should never be used to judge the final game's performance. If you really plan to buy the game, get it from the torrents, test it, and then buy it. If the single player works fine for you, Multi will work without a sweat

Domination is a mix of TDM and capture the flag is a fast paced mode.. Which i think i liked for the simple reason that i played TDM in BF3 for half of my game time MP (I am on colonel 12 and so have played long enough)

Will check this new mode tonight

Domination is TDM + Conquest.. Capture the Flag (CTF) is a different game mode. Obliteration = Rush + CTF.

This map is probably the worst . Not having much fun

It has nothing to do with settings I believe. This game is bringing top of the line cpu's to their knees.Even on my i7 4770k I am getting 100% usage, as I have not overclocked.But the gameplay is smooth for me on ultra settings.

^ thats ridiculous ! they said before, dual core was the minimum req, now this game is chocking even highest end i5 & i7, thats too unprofessional, wasted my 5gb downloads, meh.

their software is obviously not optimized, and i am kinda having a feeling that they are hurrying in production with bf4.

so all of a sudden, all the mumbai servers seem to be running pretty much empty...!! man i want to play on low ping servers...!!

Multiplay #2 has around 30 players at night

new update out with some fixes for Dual Core CPU's

S

This new update seems to have resolved the CPU 100% utilization bug. Now it's running good for me

at last i m able toplay beta. :bananana:

all ultra settings, minus the msaa gave 15 - 22 fps with my c2d e8400 3.4ghz. amazing !

^ Never compromise your fps for the sake of better graphics . Especially for MP , your fps must be atleast above 40 in order to have a fair match .

^yah pulled down to lowest settings for 33 fps.

guess i will finally have to upgrade cpu before getting the game.

Or wait to see how final game is optimized for dual core processor . I remembered during bf3 beta , when i was having core 2 duo e4600 2.4ghz , I used to have low fps even on low setting on caspian border , but the final game was far more optimized , gave me 30+fps on medium without any lag .

^yah, thaks for thee sugg, i will wait for final release performance benchmarks before buying anything.

the game now looks more polished in terms of bugs and stuttering seems to have gone too..

Recon was an abandoned stuff in beta with that bad set of guns with no scope unlocks untill lvl 2. Makes no sense in doing that.. The first thing should have been a scope on sniper. But I guess the actual game might come with some semi automatic snipers unlocked at lvl 0 which will give some hope untill that lvl 2 scope unlocks.

I found more fun playing with carbines and ACW R was an ace gun like always.

Overall, I am sure they will nerf down those OP guns to reality like what they have done with BF3 and I am hoping that they fix the random crashes when there is lot of action at a time and those random FPS drops in the final release.

But the new gameplay (needs a small amount of time and practice to get adapted to - for ppl coming from BF3) was a good take home from the beta

I meant the overall gameplay - running, the hit indicator (cross mark while hitting the enemy), on-death cam (now it doesnt show the surroundings of the enemy killed which makes it an interesting change), better weapon handling etc. There are some changes to customizations too.
The new battlepacks and field upgrades add to the fun

BF4 Beta Ended approx 45 mins ago .... OH NO!

Spend around 12 hour on single map . Even though i feel that this map will be worst of all other map , still it was much fun to play . This beta was definitely better than bf3 beta . I am definitely buying this game .

I felt the same.. However, I would love to see Noshar Canal TDM (my favourite map for TDM) coming to BF4 in 2nd DLC as I dont want to go back to BF3 just to play it..

Also, hope they introduce the levolution on Operation Metro too as its more or less confirmed to appear in DLC 2.

Also, I was not kinda surprised to see that map coming onto beta as they were showing their E3 videos on the same map. They will certainly not show us any other maps at the moment as BF4, apart from the gameplay elements, will largely depend on the maps for its success.

As BF BC2 was the first game that I ever liked on MP (CS dint appeal me except for some time pass with friends), I have preordered all the BF games so far from then. Though premium for BF4 is a new thing as i dint buy BF3 premium simply coz i was only playing Noshar Canal whole time

But I am a huge fan of BF and not rich as u think I am.. I am just cutting down some other games to accommodate this.

Yeah this time I am going to extract every bit of it.

It certainly is.. IMO

seeing the way bf4 beta looked on my pc...m not sure whether I should preorder it :-?

...or try out the ahem version and then buy it...but then I won't get the bonus content right?

abhidev said:

The bonus content menitoned for preorders arent going make its way later.

But if you arent sure then wait and buy.

If you think graphics on beta wasnt upto the mark, i must say dont judge the graphics on beta versions of any BF games (proven in the past). It is going to be much much better looking after the release.

m sure its gonna be kickass...what I am worried is will my gfx handle it...BF3 works awesome!!!

abhidev said:

Downloading ahem version just to play Sp campaign is not worth the time IMO . Bf3 sp was totally gpu dependant while MP was cpu intensive . Snce you have a powerful processor , i think final game will run just fine .

R

abhidev said:

Though you may not be able to run with anti aliasing, shadows and water details on high settings, I believe you still can run the game just fine in medium to low level settings.

^ thats what even I was wondering...but I didn't like the way beta was looking...bf3 looks way more better than the beta...I don't know if thats coz of my gfx card?

^ no, the game was unpolished . But still, at ultra setting, the game look very good, well atleast before that stupid skyscrapper collapse.

R

abhidev said:
^ thats what even I was wondering...but I didn't like the way beta was looking...bf3 looks way more better than the beta...I don't know if thats coz of my gfx card?

It can be because, BF4 is much more varied in graphics when compared to BF3 with all its levolution effects and higher grpahical requirements. Still, looking at beta, dont come to conclution on the graphical department. If you think u love playing BF4 MP irrespective of how it looks on your machine (if its playable, which it is), you can get the copy. If you are not such a fan of MP and you can live without it, wait, check ahems and then buy if you are convinced.

abhidev said:
^ thats what even I was wondering...but I didn't like the way beta was looking...bf3 looks way more better than the beta...I don't know if thats coz of my gfx card?

Are you kidding? BF4 looks phenomenal even on the low settings, let alone compared to BF3.

^ really? I wasn't much impressed by graphic .

R

Lets not compare or even talk about graphics just yet.

Also, it would be wise to leave the graphics to be better explained by ppl who have better cards rather than putting our opinion with the lower level old cards we possess

Edit - I've actually played it on my friend's computer, i7 and a gtx 260. The performance wasn't great, but the graphics were fantastic, and the game looks and plays different compared to BF3, so I take back my 'same game, different engine' comment

Nice to learn that u found it different like me. There is a small learning curve for BF4 when we have already played BF3 before as the gameplay has some change (difficult to explain) in a good way that is.

29th nov . But if you are planning to buy from gamestop . remember 2 things

1) chances are that it will be out of stock in the matter on few min and afaik they give priority to the people who go to their store rather than purchasing online .
2) the game will not contain china rising dlc which is worh 10$ , so if you dont have plan to upgrade your game to premium , buying from origin now does make more sense @ 38$ . You can start preloading tomorrow

You can start preloading on 27th using vpn and can play it on 28th

The problem is I have no idea how to use vpn (or the process) to get early pre load. Also, even if I preload it using vpn and play till first, can I switch back my country code after that and continue the profile??

Preload have started , game size is 24 gb :cry:

, just download any vpn software like flyvpn or *www.vpnsecure.me/ , Connect to korean vpn , open origin , reload game and start downloading . After download start , disable it

Don't worry about sp, it's takes only 5 hours to complete.

Preordered it couple of days back from Game4U - atleast getting additional DLC/maps at that price. I prefer having a disc in my collection than downloading 25-30gb over my 2mbps connection.

Thought I will buy Blacklist and Black Flag at 50% discount which is savings of 1500. That maths works for me

Flipkart already had 50% discount on Blacklist couple of weeks back, missed it. Anyways there is backlog of few games for me right now so can wait to buy those awesome games during Christmas time.

I started the multiplayer discussion thread here --> *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/gamerz/178995-battlefield-4-multiplayer-discussion.html

icebags said:

well bf3 mp thread was very popular , so why not bf4 mp thread ?

^how about asking mod to change title ?

This thread is for discussion of release, installation problems, SP campaign etc. MP is massive and needs dedicated thread. just look at the post count in this thread, 757 posts even before the game is released in India.

apart from that.. I started playing the campaign may be 70% complete, playing in hard mode, the AI stupid, average story. I think I need to play it again after official release as my unlocks are not showing up(VPN

).

BF4 is taxing on GFX, and one particular level is very intense with all kind of weather effects. I can run on high on 900p (but looked dull) or ultra 720p(~60) , 1080p would be too much to ask. I prefer better framerates over ultra quality. if you have a beast of a machine then you can get 1080p ultra easily. for midrange PC's I would recommend high~Ultra / 720p/900p setting. upcoming driver would help a lot. ill give about a month or two for devs to clear out the drivers. I wont start playing MP till official release for ping relates issues on VPN.

BTW.. first time I died (may be at 45% completion). it was due to suicide by jumping off a second floor building :facepalm:

Ha ha ha .. No one in the world will sell it for 300 Rs. Chances are he will ship the DVD box with the dvds only. With a product key (Used).

I have been playing assault class so far and only TDM mode. Trying to level up before i try some other classes. As far as i observed about the guns and the fitments - M416 and AEK 971 are still in their prime might just like they were in BF3 but Famas was a dissappointment. AUG A3 still looks like a viable choice and SCAR H is pretty oped up in BF4

The TDM maps are very good except for operation locker.

Hey guys , will it give playable framerates with a Core I7 2600k and GT640 ?? Resolution intended : 1366x768p.(Medium to High)

both are different. premium is a service which gives all future DLC + other stuff like 2XP, 2weeks early access etc. one need to own the base game(standard or digital delux(meh)) to buy premium.

Same here mate. This will be my first purchase from amazon so haven't got much idea about it. Maybe some members who have bought stuff via amazon could enlighten us

Enter a fake US address. And use your debit card to buy. Simple.

Yeah. Some times debit also works

Not that simple. Your bank can reject the transaction because your billing address didn't match.

I've had that happen once.

I've bought a lot of things via amazon, and for billing address related issues, you're on a luck factor.

Shipping addresses are never a problem, but if amazon says something about billing address being restricted to certain countries, it has to be valid. A fake address could be troublesome.

Valid address means can I give a relative's address in the US and still pay using a CC (talking about the digital download on 29th ofc)?

You can, i got a RANDOM USA address on internet to purchase from amazon. They don't validate. I paid with credit card, i don't think Amazon will send billing address to bank as i see big providers only need CC No, EXP Date and CVV2 to charge you. The smaller sites that use third party processing company will do fraud checking on billing address to avoid fraud/charge back. Even flipkart will accept credit card with out proper billing address.

anaklusmos said:

Yes, that's right. Depending on bank, CC address may also need to match.

Quick info here guys.
BF4 will be $25 on 28th Nov but this will be only for a period of 3Hrs. After that it will be $35 for the rest of the day and again change back to $30 on 29th. So grab while u can.
Sad part is that this amazon offer is only eligible for US residents.

No need to use VPN or proxy. Just visit amazon and buy it. We can buy it, amazon only need a US billing address. Get one from Googl.e

Already set alarm for 29 Nov, 5:40 AM, that is the time $25 bf4 promotion starts in india.

It will be $20 as amazon give $5 credit towards next purchase.

Bought BF4 from US origin for 19.99$

Details.
1.I made a paypal account using an international credit card, it did not need verification for making a payment using it.

2. got my 10$ off using the details given Battlefield 4 (PC Digital Download) $20 - EA Origin Deals, Coupons and Promos (Note: did not use vpn while generating this code)

3. Used Hola unblocker for VPN.

4. Went on origin.com, added the game to cart, checked out, disabled vpn , added payment details and finished placing my order,

.

Did it all in an hour.

after buying the game on origin US..this was the download speed I got...it was really shocking as IO had never seen it before in my whole life :shock:

Open in a new tab and check the BF4 dl speed

*i1225.photobucket.com/albums/ee397/abhidev/Battlefield%204/BF4_originDLspeed_zps4f3cbf9e.jpg~original

The high speeds were because somehow origin took my ahem version of BF4 and was downloading only some extra files :lol:

Why it says 29 GB ? My BF4 download says 24 GB. Which ISP you are using ?

Guys, I used VPN and entered Origin US, checked out, removed VPN and I bought BF4 Dig Del through Paypal, but gave Indian address, everything went well and the amount was deducted. But I didn't get any receipt email and now in "My Games" tab of Origin app, I'm getting "Slow Network" thingy. WTF went wrong? In-app store is working.

~~Here's the snip of my order history.~~

-snip-

~~So I definitely have the game, right? Or is it ef'd up?~~

EDIT: Phew, and I thought 2.5K was in EA's pocket without the game. Thankfully, corps. haven't done that yet.

*i.imgur.com/CP1B2lk.jpg?1

Dude even I was worried coz I had the ahem version already installed and origin picked up that folder automatically maybe coz of the save files... initially twice the game didn't start at all...after that I removed the ahem version completely and then it worked well...later when I tried connecting to a server for multiplayer it said 'This account is not allowed to connect'.

For moment I thought maybe origin blocked me completely and my money n all the origin games are down the drain

. But now its working fine.

^LOL.

Don't they asked you to reinstall punkbuster ? I had problem with bf4 activation, they asked me to reinstall punkbuster wasting my time.

EA support is from india ? I too got staff with indian name.

IDK about you guys, but this game has become epic since I upgraded. Been playing for straight 6-8 hours for two days, nothing but greatness.

And any other MP shooter other than military shooter for me feels disconnected. PS2, ACB, TF2 all these felt good for an hour.

Yeah, and base maps were so much better than the maps from DLCs. I felt this in BF4 too. China Rising maps are good, but nowhere as awesome as base map, say, Paracel Storm or Hainan Resort and such.

The liking towards the base maps have other reasons too -
1) The longer you play a map, the awareness and spots that you pick increases and thereby you find it fun to play that map over and over. Example:: In my case it was Noshars canal from BF3 for TDM.
2) Most of the local servers you play (with better pings) might have the old maps (even in rotation) and they seldom add the new maps into the rotation.

yes same problem . Which processor you have ?

I too experienced this recently...I haven't updated the drivers... Is there a need to?

Since Bf4 MP is cpu intensive , dual core processor have common stuttering issue . Same with me

. However there is one simple solution that can reduce stuttering . Go to BF4 folder >> Installer >> direct x >> redist >> Dx setup . The thing is when you install Bf4 then origin crap doesn't install directx and some of the file which is needed for bf4 may not be there in your pc . This solution worked for many , try it and tell .

have you unparked the core ? If not then download this Coder Bag: Disable CPU Core Parking Utility . Run the exe file as administrator >> Check status >> Unpark All .

But I don't think windows 8.1 needs core parking.

N

^It does. I used the Unpark CPU App on 8.1 and it showed me 4 cores being parked. I think the micro-stutter is due to 4 gigs of RAM, when I up'ed it to 8, I'm having nothing but smoothness.

I usually play in Euro servers. To make good use of the money I spent, I play on servers having DLCs. Always. And I HATE only one map servers, I love map rotations. And moreover I've played enough Armored Kill and other DLCs of BF3 to say with confidence that I felt base maps were slightly better, if not better.

New update of 1.23gb

Hey all

I am new to the BF4 MP Scene.

So the question is how much data(mb) the game(playing online/ MP) uses if i play 1-2hrs per day??

As i have the speed of 4mbps till 8gb and 512kbps there after

Will I notice Any lag on European Servers. Also the speed is sufficient???

All BF3/Bf4 DLC looks good in trailer

, Heck Even Single player look so awesome .

N

People who have tested (LvlCap, jackfrags and some others) say this DLC feels fresh. They say maps are VERY well designed. I was defo buying this, then I took an arrow... err... then I saw they hiked it to 1k. For a damn DLC! I remember buying BF3 Ltd Ed for 1.5k. :<

Oh well, times change, prices go up, pay stays the same. >:\

I'll probably wait for some kind of deal... Like the 50% deal with China Rising DLC

Wow!! Congrats

thanks

Not sure why I cannot get any hits in BF4, I play BF3 daily and dont have a problem in that.
Also sniping is so different, I can hardly get any head shots in BF4.

True .... thats why I dont play BF3 anymore , It affects my bf4 skills .

i never played BF3 online, but i salute those guys in BF4 who still lands head shot ( not sure if hacker) from where i cant even possibly spot em even in the death cam. Has an assault rifle, has 300 ms + ping.

I read the bullet velocity, muzzle suppression, target leading, effective projectile drop curve all these come into picture. Even after all this, if he shots me multiple times from like a light-year away with a petty rifle!! , then O.K. I am a noob, i dont know how to play BF4 and i wont land any headshot in near future like he did.. I am happy with it.

hmm, tried the single player campaign, too bad, noob AI, and boring, will try the multiplayer soon...

My Gameplay video:

Campaign Sucks ... They should remove it from next iteration of Battlefield and focus solely on Multiplayer .

Bid yourself a good morning while waking up slowly from your dream and take it with a pinch of salt - BC is outdated and so will be BF3 soon (in the verge of, currently).

getting rid of windows 8 and a windows 8.1 fresh install gave me at least 5-10 FPS boost and a smoother game-play experience in BF4, Fluke?

I'm experiencing frequent crashes.... :-x

S

Yeah even I'm getting frequent crashes from the past 3-4 days. Plus when I'm waiting in queue to join a server, when my turn arrives, I get the Battlefield didn't start properly error message and when I hit reconnect I'm back in queue!

yea...same thing is happening to me too....

same for me even origin in game not working the game doesnt start and gets stuck at black screen when i enable origin in game.Also after playing a round in dragons teeths map another round doesnt start and game automatically crashes

Damn! DT is awesome tbh..
Total infantry based map

S

I wish I had Premium. I love infantry only combat. Missing Dragon's Teeth badly

propaganda map is my favourite in dt
