Please people .. POST PROOF!

YES! POST SCREENSHOTS WITH renderer.drawfps 1

YES! POST VIDEOS

JUST POST PROOF

Statements without proof are less likely to be looked at or taken with any degree of seriousness.

We are being given a chance to help change things..make it count.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Please put Squad Cycling back in the game. I can handle Squad Hopping being removed, but the game is still very slow with Cycling removed.

I agree with Harmor on the IO idea.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Suggestion:

This is just a suggestion, and i hope you'd consider this since i believe that the current system to squad hopping is far from perfect.

The reason i say this is because, the only chance i have to choose or think of choosing a squad is when i am dead. I always keep forgetting to join a squad when i am alive, because A) there is an enemy around, B) I'm getting artied already, C) an armour is spawn camping and died before i had a chance to choose a squad, or D) just not used to it yet lol.

The thing is, is there anyway to implement it so that you can still choose a squad while you are dead, but not spawn on them untill the following spawn? That would be great since i wouldn't have to worry about being killed or artied or sniped while i stand there trying to find a squad. And i think this could be implemented easily since in 1.3 and 1.4b, when the round begins, and its your first time to spawn you can still choose a squad while dead, its only when you first spawn after, the menu becomes disabled after you die.

I guess what i am trying to say is, use the same system that is implemented now, but enable the squad menu when dead. This means i could get in a squad, but i first have to spawn at a flag, die, then be able to spawn on the leader.

Hope this makes sense.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

The new way to end prone-spamming/prone jumping does nothing but slow the game down.

Stop being lazy EA/Dice, and please put a "ANIMATION" to go prone as you did in BFV.

A going "Prone Animation" will also end this mid air flying insta-prone crap, and this boring infantry combat were almost every enemy encounter invloves insta-prone/shoot/repeat.

Soundcard: Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty
Patch: Type 1.4b Incremental
Infantry_only: 0
Event: BFHQ bug - the F2000 kit is an image of a flashbang with a locked symbol (even when the kit is unlocked). It should be the image of an F2000 AND a flashbang, and the lock icon should work properly.

Event: One bomb release in planes. Once in awhile, hitting fire will only release one bomb instead of the full payload. This bug will persist if the Aviator drop the rest of the payload and trys to restock back to his full compliment. Only resolution is to drop the single bomb, and then go straight back to re-arm. Happens with all planes on all maps and boosters.

Event: No rank/No unlocks. Players will randomly join a server and lose their unlocks and their ranks. Leaving the current server, waiting for the round to end, joining a different server and then rejoining the original server in a new round is the only solution to regaining your rank (unlocks often just require a reconnect to the server to fix).

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I posted in the other thread because this one was for bug reporting, But I complied with your wishes and posted in this thread, and my posted was deleted, without any sort of explanation, so asked why it was deleted and again my post was gotten rid of without any sort of response. Now Id like an answer, a simple yes or no will do

but this post will too get deleted so I dont even know why I ****ing bother with it.....

I guess this thread should not be where we give our feedback. Perhaps the name of the thread should be changed from "1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting" to just "1.4 Error Reporting"?

I too thought this thread was were we give our constructive feedback.

When on Jalalabad non infantry only as the US commander, each time the MEC dropped a vehicle it would reset my vehicle drop timer, we did this repeatedly..

however when I dropped my vehicle the MEC commanders timer wasnt reset..

also

when dropping a vehicle at this point between the buildings the vehicle will shoot thru the building at random points...

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I'm working on a 1.3 patch for another game and having a separate, private board accessed by password helps keep things focused. People can still post feedback in the publlic forums too, but it certainly reduces the Beavis and Butthead posts.

Really good to see DICE posting here.

Yeah :)

You know...does the way of reporting bugs via fan forums seem somehow to be lacking in professionalism? Maybe not. Maybe it's just me, but I would have contect forum ownersz and asked if a new section could have been opened just for 1.4 and maybe a proper format of reporting and a thread where every report that doesn't conform get's deleted ?

This is with 6 people in Mastuur (99fps):



This is with ~16 players in Mashtuur right after the game started(44fps):



This is on Sharqi with 64 players (25fps):



If you want the larger pics I can show those too, but it is nearly impossible to see the FPS number up there because picturetrail.com shrinks everything. My temps never exceed 55*C according to Rivatuner, Bf2 is my default driver setting, with everything on high performance and least image quality.

With the below rig, that can handle every other game without a hiccup, this is F***ING REDICULOUS!
