Still don't own this.. I tried it on a friend's account and I just kept getting sniped across the map... I'm so used to ARMA 3, it's just bizarre. But I really want to play it! Bah.
Oh, and that obnoxious fucking server browser through the web browser. I hate that.
I may have just talked myself out of a sale...
Not sure when you last played it but the DICE LA team has done wonders with balance and netcode/server performance and it's in a great state these days. If the DLC is free and if EA Access for $5 gets you BF4 for a month until BF1, that's a steal. Even the 50% off Origin code to buy BF4 and get the DLC free is a steal IMO. I haven't had any problems with the server browser in a long time either (firefox). If you have a second screen or a laptop handy you should try logging into battlelog with that while you're in a match and use the BattleScreen (overhead map). It's pretty sweet and I'll miss it a lot in BF1 - I'd totally take the web based server browser if it meant I could keep that.
Anyway I think it's worth giving it another look especially for the price and free dlc now. Cheers |

| Yeah DoW 1 and it's expansions were awesome. DoW 2 wasn't my thing and was sad to see them go that direction with it. Not sure about 3 yet but will keep an eye on it. |

Yeah we've had a lot of fun with it so far as well. Surprisingly haven't had many bad bugs or crashes either which is a good sign (esp compared to BF4's launch).
GreenManGaming has BF1 Standard Ed on for 20% off FYI. main thing you don't get is the 3 day head start (Tues Oct 18 vs Fri Oct 21). |

The game is awesome, just by the beta it just might be the best Battlefield game.
You smoke crack.
BF3, BF4, and Hardline play WAY BETTER than this. It is literally a reskin of Star Wars. No question about it. The people move the same, same map overlay, same hunched over running style, same terrible hit boxes, same outline of players when dead, same everything! It is ridiculous. Did you play Money Wars!?
The game is playing on 60hz servers by default, which is a huge step up from previous games. The netcode is doing very well, not seeing problems when running behind a wall and getting killed etc. Haven't seen any hit box issues, only thing that comes to mind is a sniper glint showed through the edge of a mountain one time and wasn't sure if I got shot through that or not.
I skipped hardline and star wars but don't have any problems with the animations. Everything is looking beautiful other than a bug where players hoola-hoop their pouches as they run. I had to up my mouse sensitivity quite a bit but it's been snappy just like BF4. /shrug
I hate kill cams in general and hope they have Classic Mode in to get around that. |

I want to play but afraid it'll run like crap on my aging AMD 280X.
FYI my friend is playing on a 270X on low/medium and hasn't dropped below 60fps. Has an OC'd 8320 but not sure where it's at right now. Give it a try while it's free.
We're enjoying it so far. Unfortunate map choice since the huge empty desert really only caters to the vehicle and sniping crowd. The map from the first EA event and ones like that will be awesome because it's a great mix/balance.
On Tanks: A problem with tanks right now is not many Assault players have unlocked the AT rocket weapon, and hardly anyone is using the "light AT" grenade option. Every class gets that and can take down or at least disable the heavies with some coordination. Also any damage done to a tank interrupts it's repair cycle so it's possible to button a tank to give someone time to blow it. Aircraft can be really effective against tanks but most people are dog fighting or bombing the town and not the vehicles.
On Sniping: Bullet velocity is up big time which is a nice buff to snipers. An indirect buff to snipers is how they have change SMGs and other guns to not be very effective at long range, which I think is great. I can't kill snipers at long range with an ACW like I could in previous games. But again this is an indirect buff to snipers. I think they'll be balanced a bit. Still have to keep in mind this map is a sniper's wet dream.
On Squads: My group of 5 (on PC) was able to form a squad and join a game together and it kept up together the whole time, and rejoining was easy as well. Really loved this.
On Aircraft: Lots of fun, before we stopped last night I was spending time as a tank hunter. The big slow landships are easy targets full of points for the taking. Had some pretty fun dog fights. Need more practice flying close to the mountain though :/

Too bad about splitting up the community again with map/DLC pay wall but it's EA, no surprises there. Thankfully my group and I easily get our money out of premium but it would be nice and better for the community if at least the maps were free so it didn't break up the server selection so much.
Also FYI it looks like you can subscribe to EA Access for 1 month for $5, buy BF1 with 10% discount, then cancel EA Access and come out ahead. By like $10 or whatever. But still! |

Looking forward to this. Will be great not having any lock-ons, IRNV etc.
Also hoping for a relatively smooth launch because SW Battlefront launched relatively bug free (esp compared to BF4). Time will tell I guess. Bring on the open beta! |

Can't complain about free content!
I haven't played in a while either, but it's been through some updates and almost more interesting to me would be where the mods are at now. The traffic AI mods and such made huge improvements to the game. |

Always so many negative comments in every thread around here lol :/
We're looking forward to checking it out. No more easy mode lock on weapons, no IRNV, UCAV, etc., could be a really nice change of pace. |

Well, I never really found SC4 all that challenging once I learned its systems. So I would say it's about the same as Skylines for me at this point. I don't really play for the challenge, it's just enjoyable creating the city. Challenges for me I guess lie in creative road and rail systems, not building in simple "grids", making low density resource towns away from my main city, etc. I also use some quality of life mods, such as recycling centres to help deal with garbage. Not using mods like that would certainly make it a bit more challenging I guess, but to me that is more tedious than a challenge. Mileage will vary with stuff like that of course depending on what you find fun. Definitely worth checking out though.

After a mere 66 hours I have to admit find this game incredibly shallow and boring ;/ Every city is the same, has the same problems and the same solutions to those problems. Not to mention that I think their expansions just flat out do not add anything of worth to the actual core gameplay loop.
And yea.. death to Chirpy!
1000x this. I lost interest in this game simply because there wasn't enough variety to the cities.
This might not be a popular opinion, but as much as SimCity 2013 was reviled, at the very least they sought to add some variance between cities through building upgrades and specializations. It wasn't implemented well, but that doesn't mean the ideas behind it aren't worth developing further. At least in that game, my cities differentiated themselves.
How much more variety are you looking for though?? There's more variety in Skylines than the old Sim Cities, and you can specialize in things like Oil, Ores, Tourism etc., just like you can with that last Sim City. Even more so I would say, given the much larger city sizes in Skylines (which can also be even bigger with mods). You can also create smaller towns with their own local work force in Skylines with highways and mass transport connecting them (I always have poorly educated farming or mining towns on the map along with my main big metro city).
I mean for a $30 city builder I think it's excellent. Especially with all the mods available in the workshop.. lots of functionality mods (road protractors, better traffic AI, etc) but also RCI buildings. Love having Tim Hortons and other Canadian retailers all over my cities.
Anyway just wanted to defend a bit because this small dev team team has made a really outstanding $30 city builder. To each their own though  |

Yeah, the last several Total War releases have been pretty much shit. They keep pumping out new ones every 12-18 months and it really shows.
Definitely staying away until A) it comes down in price (plus fuck them using Chaos as preorder bait), and B) the mod scene is strong, as no Total War game going back to Empire has been playable without well developed mods (IMO).
I'm just glad it's not 40k, otherwise I may not be strong enough to resist :S |

Rome 2 was so horrible that I cannot fathom spending money on this game for a long, long time.
Agreed, after Rome 2 I haven't touched anything from them and will be waiting a good long while after this releases to even think about it. I love Warhammer (prefer 40k though) and would like this to be awesome, but have little faith left in the TW series :/ |

The last couple of updates have really helped balance out the factions and looking forward to the next couple of updates to help even more (they recently did an "alpha" testing phase that's still under NDA but they've been patching in results from that).
I've picked up 3v3 and 4v4 with a couple friends after being away from the game for a long time and it's pretty fun again, looking forward to this DLC and only $10 so the price is right |
