I refuse to get Premium or any other DLC until DICE fix the constant crashing and other bugs.

MWong4557d ago

I got Premium before I learned about the constant crashes. The UCAV & SUAV will both probably be nerfed pretty soon.

LocutusEstBorg4557d ago

You should have refused to get the game in the first place.

Flipgeneral4557d ago

I'm honestly about to trade this in for AC4. This is pathetic

JessiePinkmanYo4557d ago

Flipgeneral-You'll love AC4. I was never a huge AC fan, but the pirate theme with the AC formula works extremely well.

SolidStoner4557d ago

I have to admit, BF4 isnt the worst game I had! its one of the best I had.. its still bad.. but that just gives you idea how bad are other games I had! lol :D its just this "sell now, fix later" bug that kills gaming..

joab7774557d ago

I got china rising dlc code, put it in...it installes on ps4 but it says I can't play b/c I don't have it. I go to the store and it doesn't exist. So I have to pay $50 to get what is already mine? Anyone else have these problems?

MizTv4557d ago

Same here dude
Not happy at all about this

Ripsta7th4557d ago

Only premium players got it today, we regs have to wait 2 more weeks

Kleptic4557d ago

How did so many of you miss this?

since inception, premium has always included 'early access' to ALL dlc...premium does NOT come with any game...

the deluxe edition of BF4 includes China Rising at no additional cost, but does not include premium...so, therefor, does not include early access to china rising...

this is...literally...all over battlelog...yet there are 1500 threads from people that can't figure out why they can't play CR yet...

frostypants4557d ago

@kleptic: "this is...literally...all over battlelog"

People shouldn't need to check a stupid online forum to figure out why something won't install. It should be obvious from the UI what the deal is. Unfortunately with Dice games, it rarely is.

ScuderiaPaul4557d ago

I had the same issue tonight. I downloaded and installed China Rising and it was not registered as bought. On PS4 click [Notifications] and select the China Rising Installed one. It will launch BF4 and give you the 'China Rising DLC Unlocked' message.

My big issue with BF4 is that my Campaign disappeared tonight. I was about two-thirds through it...

mgeezy3134557d ago

I looked up the details. We do get it for free, but only after the premium players have their two weeks first. When it's release to all of us, then we can download it. I had that same problem and I was pissed. I know the feelz, bro.

hakeem09964557d ago

early access for xbox players . yours will be active after 2 weeks

The update for PC released yesterday and I noticed an improvement in FPS & it was generally smoother and less laggy.

Just my experience though.

Guwapo774557d ago

I'm seriously thinking about chunking this disc down the street... DLC already...yeah it should had been apart of the original game. I feel like I've just gotten tube steaked. The damn game hasn't even been out 30 days yet.

Phoenix764557d ago

What's more the CR:DLC was already on the bloody disk!!!! only 1.1mb download off PS-Store!

JetsFool35004557d ago

The DLC is 3.8gb what you downloaded is basically a activation key

Guwapo774557d ago

Exactly so it's already on the disc but I can't get it. BUT if I bought my BF4 from Amazon, I would had gotten the CR with the game. That's that BS I don't like.

JetsFool35004557d ago

Stop bein butt hurt every article its the same bs with somebody commenting about the crashes everybody knows chill out dice will fix it

Strongmad4557d ago

making sure bf4 exe is fully allowed in windows firewall private and public help with some crashes.

This imeargant gameplay is awesome.. tho the uav should take damage per hit, bet multi kill is touch and you are exposed when controlling.

Debaitable4557d ago (Edited 4557d ago )

They will, give them time. Dice said themselves that there are some problems that don't arise until you launch a game. Game devs have lives too.

Edit: "DICE halts development of all future projects as it shifts focus to Battlefield 4 issues"

cannon88004557d ago

I purchased the digital version of bf4 and it was the worst decision I have ever made. For 75 dollars DICE gave me an unoptimized game that constantly drops frame rates that make the game unplayable; and I have a very high end pc, so I know that the pc is not the problem.

MrCrimson4557d ago

I don't constantly crash in the game. One time in 7 hours yesterday on my clan's 64 man server.

search for "the legion" running china rising maps. I haven't really noticed any imbalances yet either but i'm sure there is potential.

venom064557d ago

WHAT A DUMB A@$ ARTICLE... those 2 gadget BY NO MEANS cause any kinds of imbalance!! does the clown that wrote this even play the game???? you them 1 time, AND IT TAKES FOREVER to reload and be able to use again. Good Lord N4G needs to police the crap that get loaded onto its site..

dcj05244557d ago

Exactly lol. It's not OP at all from whatI'v seen. Still not buying the game until they short out most of the technical issues.

JessiePinkmanYo4557d ago

"While exploring new battlegrounds in the Battlefield 4 expansion, China Rising, you may run into an occasional hiccup, issue, glitch, or problem that could interrupt or prohibit your gameplay." - See more at: http://www.gameranx.com/upd...
Am I playing the same game here? Occasional??? Why release DLC as broken as this game is without fixing the major issues and crashes at hand? I remember Homefront being broken at release, and it took over a month to fix it. At least THQ acknowledged the fact something was horribly amiss. I see the attitude here, they got my money. Well, someone else is getting it next time around. I'm trading this heap of shit in. I'm also going to avoid future Dice/EA releases in the future.

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.

-Foxtrot1521d ago

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

gamesftw2501520d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1520d ago

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

PapaBop1520d 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.

Inverno1520d 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

XiNatsuDragnel1521d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1520d ago

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

Pudge1028881520d ago (Edited 1520d 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

pr33k331520d 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.

Pudge1028881520d 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_D3TH1520d 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

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