Battlefield 4/CoD Ghosts

I'm still digging out of the hole. Just about back to a 1.0.

Easy to say when you're on PSN. Xbox live accounts cost actual money to have so unless you're famous or something and wanna play incognito, not many are gonna pay to keep multiple accounts.

Never knew that about xbox. Went from an atari 2600 to an apple IIc to the sega genesis to ps1 and never looked back from playstation since.
 
I've literally tried every console that can get online. PSN in its infancy was inferior to xbox live for sure, but that was the version of PSN for playing Mortal Kombat on the PS2. Once the PS3 rolled around PSN has everything Xbox Live does, in near identical menus and functionality, but for free. Oh, and not in annoying pastel colors, and doesn't censor you like XBL. For example, go ahead and try and label one of your custom classes in Black Ops "Assault" (keeping in mind nobody except you will ever see what you titled your custom classes). PSN will let you, Xbox detects "Ass" and won't let you finish naming the custom slot.
 
Finally clawed my way up into the positive. Sporting a 1.01 right now thanks to the M27 light machine gun with thermal hybrid scope and silencer. Even went 24-4 in one match. Was running specialist for a while but with that setup I was confident enough to switch to assault class. Dog-sentry-maniac. Havnt made it to maniac yet
 
That's pretty good with the M27. That was the first class I started with but I got wrecked trying to use it. Maybe I'd do better with a regular red dot sight instead of the hybrid RMR sight.

Took me 13 friggin hours to bounce back and be even.

OK so...anyone else have this "problem?"

I play with 3 buddies, and we are all suddenly level 60, and with tons of squad points (my friend has like 250). I looked online, don't see anything specifically (only spent a few minutes). Anyway, I know things could be worse, 1st world problems, etc., just curious.
 
Sounds like you got into a hacked lobby.


Think I found my game mode...hardcore TDM. I may have had only one or two matches where I've gone negative. Most are usually lobby leading games. It's absolutely amazing how many people are running around without dead silence.

Maybe that's how it started, but it's weird. We are all level 60, get tons of squad points, and the weapons/points have stayed with us for a week or so.

OK. I wouldn't mind much if they did, kind of defeats the purpose of leveling, getting weapons. On the other hand, it's fun being able to buy whatever the F I want.
 
Hardcore Domination has returned!

I saw you in there last night. I joined the game for a few minutes, but it was all sniper camping and I prefer to have someone to shoot at before getting my ass shot to death.
:laughing

If it was that prison break map where it was like 4 on 3.....yeah that was super boring. Plus it was laggy as all hell. But that was a HCTDM. Right after that Bap and I did a HC Dom and shit was pretty fast paced. I went super negative KD, but we easily got the win.
 
Ok...finally got a PS4 and picked up Ghosts. Bring up to speed on fastest leveling/weapon/perk combos. I'm digging being able to sacrifice tactical nades and secondary weapons for extra perks. Currently started off with the Assault class for my first character, rocking the SA805 or whatever, red dot, grip (default stuff), then pretty much every perk I can get my hands on (not much at the moment, I'm only level 7).

Did you have it on PS3? How much better are the graphics?

Thus far, I think BF4 is the superior game, except for the game menu/interface (you can't join a squad BEFORE going into a game???).

If you can handle the frantic pace, Cranked probably has the highest score per minute. Especially if you run Specialist and get the bonus when all perks are earned.

Also keep track of the operations it's not just the five you see. Those are the ones you are tracking. Clicking on one opens the whole list for first class, gear, whatever group in the slot you're looking at. Some operations are easy (yeah I can run the holographic instead of red dot for a while), and you can always burn a squad point to get a new set of operations. Those also unlock the patches, uniforms, headgear, etc. But each of those operations gives you an all important squad point and a bunch of XP.

Have you tried leaving the squad you are auto assigned to first?

I'm tired, not sure what you mean. In CoD, you can first meet up with your squad, and then find a game.

In BF4, unless I'm wrong, you can't do so. You can only join games that your friends are already in, and then you might have to change teams to be on their side, etc.

I'm not sure how those fancy consoles work cause I'm a simple minded computer nerd but in the PC version if you are on a friend list and join a friends game you are put onto their team and in their squad unless the team is full or the squad. Once the game ends it will attempt to do the same thing for the next match. You can also all join as a group before ending the game.

OK, I am also a PC gamer who has been forced to use consoles as of late (since my friends play on them exclusively).

Anyway, in CoD, you can squad up in the online menu, and then join a game together. In BF4, you have to join a player who is already playing in a game (and sometimes, it puts you on the other time, in a different squad, etc.).
