Battlefield 4 Beta Impressions | Pixelvolt

At the end of the day, if you’re not planning on picking up the next-gen versions of the games, this current-gen iteration appears pretty polarizing.

I'm having alot of fun with the game. The graphics looks muddy and bland but I didn't expect much from a beta anyways but I'm sure once the game comes out on the 360, they'll have that HD download again and the game will look better. I'm going to use the the 360 as the tutorial where I can learn the controls and how each map looks and feel so when I get it again for the X1 I'll be ahead of the curve.

Aleithian4534d ago

My impression is that the current-gen console version is a waste of money.

MidnytRain4533d ago

Pretty much... I know they have an install base and all, but the current versions are clearly playing tag-along to the what's hitting shelves a month later.

twinspectre4534d ago

my impression is that BATTLEFIED has become literally COD :(

TekoIie4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

Its not literally COD. With that said it has took a step closer because people have started quickscoping :/

Vic_Mackey4534d ago

Powerups, lack of indepth stats after match, extremely dumbed down sniping. It's cod.

TekoIie4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

Tanks, jets, jeeps, commander, squads, levelution... Its not COD.

first off power ups = COD? Thats like saying Halo+sprint=COD. Lack of indepth stats after a match? I would say thats good because people care way too much about stats and K/D today.

But your final point is correct, sniping is extremely easy now. I can only assume its because the commander/AC-130 in the full game will just smite them.

I'll need to play the full game to find out :)

dcj05244534d ago

If a game has a scope to quick they will wuick scope it. Should we take scooes out?

TekoIie4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

@dcj

Oh you presented such a clever and thought provoking flaw to my claim that quickscoping is in BF4/s

... Dont twist my words -_-

If you aim with a weapon labeled as a "sniper rifle" with a scope over 4x, while being shot at with an automatic AR, Carbine, PDW or LMG and get the kill within two sconds of aiming, you are quickscoping

You can even remove the part where your being shot at and and point still stands.

Unlike CoD however... Battlefield games takes 2-4 years to make ;)

Unlike "Rehash of doggy"...

OmegaShen4534d ago

Thing is, BF4 has alot of problems that BF3 had. One of them is not being able to reload your weapon and if you are lucky. After a few secs it will load the numbers saying you have ammo.

I been seeing alot now that parts of the game seem to lag, like a wall no longer being there an comes back. Or the worst, snipers that seem like they leave the game but come back standing somewhere else. The thing I hate is that it seems if you show a rpg at a tank or even at a person close range, it is most likely will fail and not kill them.

kevcampbell4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

I find the beta keeps crashing my PS3, apart from that it is all very fun to play, well apart from the new helicopter controls

BigShotSmoov0074534d ago

Yeah, it's happened to my 360 also so I guess it's across all consoles.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot1438d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw2501437d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1437d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop1437d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno1437d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel1438d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1437d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge1028881437d ago (Edited 1437d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k331437d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge1028881437d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH1437d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
