It still has plenty of people on 360 playing online so I'm sure you would be fine with the PS3

That's weird. Must have broken the embargo by mistake. I watched them all and the new maps have a certain Bad Company 2 feel to them which I think is a pretty good thing. Silk Road is kinda iffy looking though. It looks like a big desert with a base in the middle.

I was able to pick up a PS4 and Battlefield 4 today.

Moving over from the 360, the controls were (and continue to be) a little wonky. I played 3 matches:
  • 0-4: I think two of those deaths were while I was trying to change the controls to inverted look.
  • 10-13: Some kills. And lots of embarrassing deaths.
  • 19-10: I'm back, baby!

I also tried the training mode. Helicopters were so easy to fly. I could see myself actually trying it and being able to reliably get kills. PSN ID is gottabekd3.

The amount of snipers is bugging the hell out of me. Especially when there are 10 squads and all of them are being commanded by recons.

Exactly as it sounds. Too many people are playing recon, sitting back totally away from any objectives trying to pad their KD. When you're playing in Hard Core you can only spawn on your squad leader so if all the squads are being led by recons you can't get any meaningful spawn locations.

I agree with the recons. One in a squad can be useful if they are spotting and lazing targets but if they are squad leaders and not using their gadgets they are better off playing COD

This just in: snipers in FPS are useless. Film at 11.

Realtalk - sniper recon in BF4 is lame and I'd like to see class restrictions on private servers capped at no more than 20% of a teams total players, and disallowed as Squad leaders. Shotgun recon rushing tanks with C4 is cool however.

I think the best system would be similar to Red Orchestra. Make it so that each squad has 1-2 support slot, 1-2 engineer, and the rest assualt. Then have a couple extra squads for snipers (3 max slots)

I think it's hilarious.. some snipers find the coolest spots. I end up parachuting off of whatever.

But yeah, in terms of winning a match it's not really the best. Luckily I suck so don't care so much.

Also, if you're squad leader, for the love of god give attack/defend orders for your squad so everyone can benefit from the extra points.

I 99% of the time make a new squad everytime I join a server. #### not getting those sweet sweet extra "followed squad command" points.

I would love the restriction of snipers in this game as well. I believe it was BC2 that only allowed a few snipers per team. I usually don't play hardcore just for the sole purpose that you have 19 guys picking shots at you at all times.
