It only took me a few games of playing to realize that I don't like it. Tanks and recon class are quite overpowered for the map that is offered. With all the bugs and crashes, it's a wonder anyone can play much more than I have without getting too peeved to actually give a more thorough opinion. And anyone who's played a DICE beta knows that aside from networking fixes, not much in the way of balancing is changed.
Also the game crashes a LOT if you:
- tweak the resolution scaling much higher than 42%, with a notification telling you that you must have a GPU with at least 2GB VRAM (duh, I do)
- have only 8GB of ram (windows 10 nudges your game shut to tell you that your pc is low on resources)
- change other display settings (low to ultra, vice versa, etc.)
- try to bayonet charge, go prone, melee, and jump often. Basically anything that involves animation seems to tax the game into crashing. It's a pretty game when it's set still though.
I know it's a beta (and a loaded open beta at that), but Jiminy Crickets - it's awful. I suppose it's at least better than the BF3 beta, which suffered from constant rubberbanding for days straight, making it downright unplayable. I never even touched BF4, save for a few games on my friend's PS4. It was 'aight.
Depends on your PC. I haven't crashed once, I'm running at 50% resolution scaling, ultra settings, 1080p with a Titan X and 4770k.
But, funnily enough, I'm also using the previous drivers. Never did upgrade to the newest drivers.
