Right now I'm busy reinstalling the game on my SSD, the levels take forever to load, hopefully that will help.

I'll add you tonight, had one round yesterday only, on the map from the beta so I haven't seen any new maps yet.

I don't have any funny software installed that can cause this mash-up. I know somebody uninstalled their Logitech gaming headphone software and his game launched. I checked my computer, and I've got nothing funny like that.

I'm gonna try a clean install tonight on my gaming machine. Just windows, drivers and Battlefield. Feels so unnecessary, but it is worth a try. Not feeling any excitement to this game anymore. Thanks for trying to help me!

There is a big improvement in performance upgrading to Win8, i upgrade from Win 7 to Win 8.1 and dont have any performance issues anymore.

Before you reinstall try the following:

Download PBSetup from here: http://www.evenbalance.com/?page=pbsetup.php
Install it, then update Battlefield 4, screw the one in the Origin folder
Turn off your Firewall complete, test again.

Could also be something related to your windows profile, so maybe create another User account for you Windows installation, then login with that account and try launching the game again.

Is anyone else having problems with ShadowPlay making the game freeze for a few miliseconds every second or 2?

No problems for me.

Runs smooth as butter when I hit the manual record button.

BRING IT, COME AT ME BRO!

Awesome come play on the metr- Locker server for a bit, enable a 200% XP boost and have fun!

In all honesty, I despise people that play for KDR (Kill Death Ratio), BF is more about PTFO (Play The F~king Objective) you will see people with negative KDR's yet they are in the top 5 players because they revive, drop ammo, spot targets, stick with their team and have situational awareness.

It is better to not engage in combat, if you are uncertain of the outcome, than rush blindly into it and come off second best because you got ambushed by piet and his 3 must be queers.

Some protips for you:
Support: Drop Ammo at choke points, Bipods are so useful drop it onto a floor or low wall just behind cover and you can fire (up to) 200 rounds with in a 60cm radius. XM25 Airburst is a beast for taking out snipers and people behind cover.

Recon: Being Recon does not mean you have to use a Marksman Rifle, equip a DRM or Carbine and be on the front lines, Use your T-UGS and Motion Sensor to spot enemies and keep tabs on their movement (MS has a 1 time use where the T-UGS is plated and can be picked up).

Assault: Drop Health and Revive not much else.

Engineer: Very useful in maps with Tanks and Choppers. Hop into a passenger seat of a chopper and keep repairing, you'll earn unlocks for that specific vehicle too, regardless if you are getting kills or not.

Support and Recon are probably the easiest classes to get points on, I have about 5 Service Stars on those two alone.

Weapons:

DMR: Work through the first two, to unlock the SKS. It is a beast, with a 3.4X scope you can put 3 shots on someones head in 2 seconds and with almost zero recoil, your follow up shots and just as accurate.
Sniper Rifles: They are all about the same, find the one you like and use it.
Shotguns: QBS (Starter shotgun) is packs quite a punch being semi-auto, play with it till you unlock chokes and you'll be getting some nice kill streaks.
Assault Rifles:The AK-12m AUG-A3 and SAR-21 (Specially the SAR-21) are the best guns in game. IMHO. SAR-12 has insane accuracy and with a 600 RPM rate of fire it is super stable.
PDW: Have not played much with the PDW's unlocked the PDW-R and have not played any more with them, PP-2000 seems to be the most balanced of them all (so far).
LMG: U-100 MK5, Type88 and M249 are very stable for hip and aimed fire. Equipe a bipod and send down 200 hundred rounds into a doorway or choke point and watch the kills stack up.
Carbines: Almost all of them are extremely easy to use, minus the M4 and ACW-R

Grenades: V40 Mini. All the way. Lighter and has a smaller blast radius but it can be tossed almost 3 times the distance of the normal M67 Frag.

Some great points mentioned here, Glordit.

I prefer playing Assault with the AEK and running with a Support squadmate.

I've got the AEK controlled to almost zero recoil and at 900 RPM, it's deadly.
