BF4 doesn't look all the special to be honest.

There's even a kill streak mechanism where overpowers you guy the more you kill. Sort of like the specialist kill streak in MW3. They did this in Battlefield: Modern Combat too. It was dumb then and it's dumb now.

I do not believe that is correct. In BF3 you could assign yourself a perk. Now your squad has to perform to even get a perk. The perks are nothing like Cod. I barely even noticed they were there in BF3.

Look up "field upgrades" for BF4 or BF 2142. Dumb as hell.

I couldn't be convinced to play BF4. I didn't like BF3. One of the things that kill it for me was squad spawning. Such a terrible mechanic to implement.

Oh is he talking about the squad support? He confused the hell out of me, but what you can unlock is extra ammo upgrade that then your entire squad gets extra ammo same with attacker and defender supression and one is like anti-supression its nothing like cod it actually helps your team

To each his own Kirby. We will always have MAG Nothing since MAG feels right, but BF is the closest I ever got. I actually like the ability to squad on your squad mates.

Then team games are not for you...bf is the best team game not go around lone wolf

Its funny people don't believe players will leave but if your looking for TP we will be in those games

Dont worry squad finder will be available in a week

From a mechanics standpoint everything seems pretty decent. I loved the new spotting and the ammo loss during a tactical reload adds another great layer to the gameplay...A++ for that. It totally threw me for a loop as I ran out of ammo my first time playing in like 2 min.

The gun game is everything I remember from BF3 and controls were solid. I am so used to playing with weapons that have iron sights that I had to drop most optical attachments to hit anything. Crazy right?

Overall game play was disappointing for me. I distinctly remember loving the BF3 Beta and playing it more than I ever thought I could on one map/mode. But I did not get that same feeling this time around. I honestly think it is a product of me and not the game. After spending the last 15 months with real risk and reward attached to my gameplay, it was just not fulfilling to die, spawn, repeat with nothing but K/DR to worry about. I would get killed and within a few seconds I am back in the fight either right with my squad mates (easy mode) or someplace else on the map where I could be back in the thick of the fight lickity split. Tanks/chopper/jeep gets blown up? Oh well, another one will spawn in a bit.

Sorry but that doesn't cut it for me anymore. It really changed any thought of picking this title up down the road when launch madness dies out. It also makes me nervous for other titles I was looking forward to, like Killzone: Shadow Fall. Anyway fingers crossed. But Battlefield 4 definitely did not make the cut. Too bad.

... people still play this game?
