I'm having issues disconnecting fairly regularly. I'm not sure if that's my router or the game servers. Still, I'm liking this game a lot. I hated recon in B3, but I actually like it in this game.
Also, riding around in a attack gunboat, blasting the crap out of everything is pretty kickass.

yeah those gun boats take a good licking. you might even say they're a little op but if you get enough engies on anything, and there are a ton of engies, it'll go down real fast.

Boats are pretty powerful when they have someone repairing. However, once you get your own boat and unlock TV Missiles, they go down insanely fast since you can fire both TV missiles pretty fast. One of my first 2 games had an attack boat and I used it. Went 24-0 or something because no one had anything unlocked for it lol. How has the transition been going for the M/KB?  My only complaint with the game so far is the fact that Air vehicles don't get a warning half the time. They just randomly blow up or nosedive after being hit by a heatseeker or stinger. THEN once you've been hit, you get a lock-on warning. -.-

boat on boat violence is pretty intense, bro. i love doing a quick flank with the rhib boat on obliteration, picking the bomb carrier and hauling ass to the bomb site on paracel storm when the storm hits and the waves go 20 ft high. it's like one of those chase scenes in the movies where a dude jumps in his getaway car and **** hits the fan. it's funny because you spam "get in" on the commo rose and the blue hauling ass with the bomb knows exactly what's up as soon as he sees you. 7/10 times i fail because that attack boat is hard as hell to shake, but when it does, it feel epic as hell. also i love trying to bait boats into the shallow waters between the little island and they get stuck on the beach. funny as hell. My only complaint with the game so far is the fact that Air vehicles don't get a warning half the time. They just randomly blow up or nosedive after being hit by a heatseeker or stinger. THEN once you've been hit, you get a lock-on warning. -.- bro, ea needs to get some better servers and dice just needs to fix the damn netcode. it's so annoying dying 10 ft behind a wall. even bf3 was better than this. i'm sure there is a warning buzzer going off but it's just out of sync between you and the guy shooting you down. i've been in a lot of firefights where i won't even get hitmarkers and i know i'm hitting dead on. after i'm done emptying my mag and frantically reload in fear, the dude randomly drops and i get a kill. i think if they fix the netcode it'd be a much better game. How has the transition been going for the M/KB? it's going alright, thanks for asking. the mouse is a non issue. it's super accurate and a lot faster than analog sticks. i really enjoy that and it's helping me shoot a lot of choppers down with a freehand rpg. the keyboard on the other hand is progressing more slowly. don't get me wrong, it's adequate for movement and i like having a lot more options at my disposal in terms of keybindings and action buttons. the thing is, i still get stuck and fumble around a lot when action gets heavy and you need to dance your fingers around the keyboard. it doesn't feel natural to me, not nearly as much as using an analog stick.

i think if they fix the netcode it'd be a much better game. Yeah I've had the no hitmarker glitch as well, but it didn't really phase me since I ADS all the time. I know when my bullets are hitting and missing. And seeing no killfeed bonus or hitmarkers coming up, felt like I was playing Hard core so I didn't mind lol. I haven't been dying behind walls and I think that's because I only play on West US servers. Learned from BF3 that anything other than West US has a chance of no sound glitch, freezing, dying stupidly, etc. Maybe you could try turning down the Network Smoothing Factor to 0%? I changed that as soon as the game loaded and I haven't had any issues with graphics or netcode. the keyboard on the other hand is progressing more slowly. don't get me wrong, it's adequate for movement and i like having a lot more options at my disposal in terms of keybindings and action buttons. the thing is, i still get stuck and fumble around a lot when action gets heavy and you need to dance your fingers around the keyboard. it doesn't feel natural to me, not nearly as much as using an analog stick. lol I think this is the area I'd have the most trouble with as well. Back when everyone was playing Combat Arms, it was always my trouble area...trying to run then prone/crouch behind cover felt weird.

Nope I'm still on PS3 until I can find a PS4. Hopefully that's on Friday but who knows, because I've never really bought a console on Launch day before. Usually wait until they iron out the bugs and drop the price lol.

I actually did turn the network smoothing factor all the way down. i do have to admit that it's running a lot more smoothly lately, but I still get a lot of the dying 5ft behind a wall thing. That's definitely on DICE/EA though.
Anyway, I might go look at some gaming keyboards and see if they offer anything that makes it easier to dance around. It honestly does get me killed quite a bit because i can't press the button i need fast enough.
Also, another thing I'm thinking is that I need a legit monitor. I'm using my hdtv as a substitute and it looks great but I don't think it can display things as quickly as a monitor. I'll be looking straight ahead and die randomly only to discover that the dude jumped out and popped back in. Guess my tv isn't fast enough. Also, it's 42 inches and I'm sitting rather close so it's a bit of a chore tracking things from one side of the screen to the other.
Anyway, I think I'll get a ps4 when there a little bit more available too. There's too many games I need to get on it and the system itself looks like it's going to be really nice. I'll probably double dip with pc and ps4 bf4.

My disconnecting issues were being caused by a crappy Comcast router. I replaced it, and no more disconnecting.  Now I need to work on my 30% quit rate caused by that damn router.

Okay, so after the patch this game is soooo much more enjoyable. I feel like I can see people at the same time they can see me so I don't need super human reaction time. Now the only thing I need to worry about is finding a Support player to drop some **** ammo. Jeez, people need to learn to play this game right.

lol PS3 has the same issue with people not dropping ammo. Hell, people barely revive now when you compare it to all the medic whoring on BF3. Guess people are using solo gadgets like Airburst/M320 and Claymore/MedKits instead of Ammo boxes and Defibs.
In other news, every place around me has been sold out of PS4 and none of them know when the next shipment is arriving. :(

You know, that IS weird. I guess since it takes a second to charge up the defibs. Regardless, I still try charging them up to revive at a higher health. In other news, every place around me has been sold out of PS4 and none of them know when the next shipment is arriving. :( Man, I haven't even tried to go look. I know I'm not going to find one. **** Willmine already has one and is double dipping on BF4, that mother****er. Where have you gone to check?
