Title: [BF4] Which map packs get the most use.
Post by: Clin on August 11, 2014, 11:23:45 am
I’ve just re-installed BF4 to give it another shot. I only had the first DLC so I bought Dragons Teeth because I figured that’s what  people will be playing. I need to sneak the rest of the map packs past the wife so what’s good? Should I get Naval Assault next? Is “Titan Mode” shit?

For the record I’ve been playing a bit of Bad Company 2 also, and geez that game has aged well. Still quite a few active servers to be found.

Shoulda just got premium from a cd key site, prolly cost less than you paid for one expansion.

Yes "titan mode" was kinda shit.. cant move carriers, they are just static, and the flag caps shoot missiles at them until they get damaged enough to breach on foot, where you "plant mcoms"..

Long long way from the glory days of 2142., and I had such high hopes too.

Depends what you like, Dragon's Teeth is pretty urban.

I like populated servers. To be honest I've been loving the infantry focused gameplay.

Lias, I never though about code sites. kinda kicking myself after laying out twenty already.

I pretty much live on the AUS 24/7 locker server, it's the new Metro in BF4, since they made the re-released metro gayer, with more flank routes etc.

I just wish BF4 was more like BC2.. I really want a map like Laguna Alta, where you can pin the enemy in their spawn, and rape them with an APC. BF4 in general is way too bluebie, fairfight kicks on trick jump spots, more annoying out of bound crap, no maps where you can actually sit in the enemy base and spawn camp. Op Locker is one of the few maps with good trick jump/mav ride spots on the cliffs.

Yeah it's running about 30 Euro atm, so under NZD$40 for premium.

Try flying - the Auto AA in the Base is probably the most retarded idea in the history of BF

On that note, I keep meaning to ask you to fly down to chch, so you can unlock the flying related assignments for me :-)

The auto AA is only auto if you're Q-spotted over the base.

And being that BF4 players are the most retarded yet, you rarely get shot at by the auto AA.

Its funny how they start to get a clue when you are going 20-0, and then the AA shreds you :(

On the subject of jets.. how the fuck do you slow them down? I've seen some guys fly them just about hovering.. yet its always super fast for me..

You use the brake?

the stealth jets though have a thing where they will gear down (like BF3) and will hover, but TBH I never hover the Jet, all about 310-315....

Hold S

Basically, I think the jets have 4 speeds

shift + W = afterburner fast
W = fast
nothing = normal
S = slow/stall/crash

Only conjecture though.
