I'm going to disagree on the sniper sentiment. I believe that snipers can be a very valuable asset to your team, but the key is to have them in moderation. Also, some guys play snipers in an active role where they still play the objective without parking off on the back of the map and chilling. Playing a sniper in an active role like that is massively beneficial to the team.

So sniping can be an asset to your team, but if there are too many, OR if you find that your team uses jets/choppers as transport to sniping spots - you may as well switch teams or look for another server.

Yeah, but what I mean is when you play a map like Siege of Shanghai, and nobody plays the objective, nobody captures objectives, because 90% of your team is camping on a roof trying to snipe people hundreds of meters away.

When we play squads of friends, we always have a balanced squad, e.g. 1 engineers, 2 assault, 1 support and 1 sniper (depends on map)... so that we have all skills, and we get around very well and do very well. If 4 of us were snipers, it would be useless... you lose strategic spawn points, you do not PTFO and you have a small penis. (sorry , I really dislike snipers)
 
Don't be hatin on the snipers man, i'm one and i go for objectives as much as i can untill i realise half the other team is camping with snipers then i take out my SRR and start poppin heads

That's noting new Tsar i got things said to me the other night because i was making a killing in an ifv 53/0 and some oke pulled out all the stops when it came to badmouthing me because they couldn't kill me. But i just either ignore them or just make them more pissed off by leaving one of my witty remarks. then you should hear them and i just laugh

So I was playing in the Blacklisters server ( clan tags are [BLK] and they have to be the worst players and worst admin I've ever come across.

I had been in a squad for 2 matches and was top of my team. They then switched me and I switched back.

Then they kicked me. I joined back and they kicked me every time I spoke in chat.

-edit-

They have now banned me for wanting to appeal their immaturity and bad admin.

Users were Agent_Keen and Reddington_za.

Hi Duck

I think you forgot to mention how you swore at me... and after numerous times that I've asked you stop and have fun you kept giving me the "nice" words.....

You were unbanned and played on our server again.... even today you were on..... Strange..... Did you forgot to come and tell everyone that you are back on our bad server with the worst players and worst admins....
Why did you came back to play on our server if you dont like it...

And yes maybe my Servers isn't the best .... But I enjoy it and so does allot of other people...

Did you really create an account to quote a post that old?

I swore because you kept team switching me when the teams were already balanced. I got upset and you then kicked me for swearing.

After I logged in to your server again and asked you WTF, you banned me for 'talking smack'.

I don't know why you felt a need to quote a post that old and bring up something that was resolved already but I stand by my word when I say the way you admin your server is immature and harmful to your own server.
 
It was auto balance that kept changing you.... I was running RCON at that time and had a setting of the plug in wrong that kept changing the good players around to balance the team in that way.... And again it was Rcon that kicked you for swearing not me.... I banned you yes because you started telling me how $... my server is and that I dont know what I'm doing and all the nice words!!! So yes I banned you for talking smack because you clearly didnt liked my server but wanna play there... And yes I did say to you its my server and I pay for it so I can ban you if I want to... And yes I said to you that we should meet face to face not to fight.... but to show you that I'm actually a female and definitely didnt like the names you called me....

I created a account to reply to your post yes.... not to dig up old bones but I was actually shocked that you came here and bad mouth us but never came and told everyone that you allowed on our server again..... Im shocked in that!!!!

I pay for that server and dont get any money back from it..... so why should I listen to insults?
 
But you're doing exactly that? You're 'digging up old bones'.

The issue got resolved and I posted that about an hour after I was banned. The issue is over and we've all moved on.

-edit-

I see I have now been banned from your servers again. Probably due to the post that you quoted from over a month ago. Sigh.

This type of shit is not needed in this community. Honestly now. And you wonder why people complain about your server.

When & on what server? I started playing a few days ago, and Im a bit surprised that there are so few active servers in SA.

Well you are correct, I've noticed over the last few months how the player base is dwindling.
I actually counted the players over the weekend (and this was a long weekend), and during peak gaming hours there was roughly 570 players spread out over 18 servers. That is pretty poor, especially over a long weekend.

If I had to take a wild guess I would say the BF4 local community that actively plays is around 1000-1300 players (That's me being optimistic).

Possibility of a lot of guys being on leave or being away over the long weekend and not logging on, I also find that the numbers are dropping a bit but maybe people are playing new titles etc. and not spending as much time on BF as before. Hopefully the core will remain for a while but I find that when a new title emerges then guys go play that for a while and when they're done they return to BF, I know that was the case with me and South Park.
 
meh, I've not played BF4 for about a month, got into Diablo 3 :o "whistling: and just havent felt like BF4, the stutterfest was getting to me, my old GPU was slowly dying.

BUT, I upgraded my GPU yesterday, got a Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 OC (4Gb) (upgraded from a GeForce GTX 285) and the very first game I tried was BF4....and was horribly dissapointed. Launching the game, with my low settings game me the same stuttering gameplay as before, I tried setting everything to medium or high and still stutters. I've installed the latest nVidia drivers, 335.23. Other games fly at max res. For example, Bioshock Infinite, Shadow Warrior, Skyrim, Borderlands 2, Diablo 3, etc.

I know my CPU is a hinderance, I have a Intel DC 8500. (have 8Gb system memory) Only thought this morning to leave the task manager open and to see the CPU usage, but still...

Win 7 x64.

Any advice?

Yep, your CPU seems to be a bottleneck here...

A while back we heard a comment that "an i5 was a rebranded Quad core". My friend replied that the shared cache on the i5 versus the non-shared cache on the quad core, is what makes battlefield playable or not. :D

Thought this was good :)
 
So I'm off for a 4 day long weekend starting tomorrow.

If anyone is keen to squad up, feel free to PM me here.

I also have a TS3 channel to use
 
Ducky, I will be online now and then over the next few days... Have 2 friends who also want to squad up, and we also have our own Cape Town based TS3 server. Will ping you if I see you online.
