I just crash for the 6th time since Dragons teeth release. Very unhappy with BF4. xbox 360 white console just deleted and reloaded title updates and cleared cache have tried reduced hd display settings. crash on chainlink map a minute in sound dropped and second later froze had to hold power button to turn off xbox360 this happens a lot and this last month has been unplayable please fix or point me in right direction of a fix. Battlefield is a great series but this is unacceptable. Thank you for your effort in these matters.

I’m working on making a video right now for the sidearm+medic bag/ammo box glitch so I can better explain how it works.

Are consoles going to get warm-up timers before rounds like pc does?

Hi  
This is a great thread as you seem to be replying to most people and sometimes posting problems on battlelog seems such a waste as nobody ever seems to respond.  
I play on xbox 360 and I experience a few problems quite often.

- Defuse gamemode - Once you die and are spectating other players it is impossible to switch the camera view to another player.
- When playing as medic or support it is impossible to deploy your medic bag/ammo box while having your sidearm equipped (as a side note this has happened since bad company 2 as far as I can remember but was always fixed with a patch after launch in those games).
- Soldier specializations still dont always work when you join a server, sometimes they do and sometimes they dont.
- Crashing/freezing still happens since last patch. I play rush most of the time and I freeze quite often on lancang dam after the second set of mcoms (after the leveloution event).
- Active protection doesnt protect against javelins & guided missiles most of the time (not sure if this is intended or not)
- Guided missiles/javelins will very very rarely ever hit a jeep/rhib boat if it is moving at full speed even if you maintain the lock all the way (they always explode in a cloud of dust right behind the vehicle)
- air vehicle countermeasures are pretty unreliable, you can deploy ECM the second you hear a lock on tone but somehow the enemy can still lock on and fire a missile (i think this is caused by lag or netcode but it would be great if you could look in to this and see if there is a way to improve the lock tone for air vehicles so that this doesnt happen)
- destruction kills dont credit the player who caused the destruction with the kill (for example bringing down a house full of enemies will kill the enemies inside but only give those enemies the “killed in action” message instead of crediting the destroyer of the building with the kills. Again I remember this was an issue at launch with bad company 2 and bf3 but was fixed later in patches.

There are a few more things I can help you out with and give details about which I will do later when I get time.  
Thank you and its great to see a developer posting here and trying to sort out the games problems.

Hi t1gge.

Thank you for taking the time to come onto these forums, and address our questions. I know you probably stay very busy and are always working to make BF4 a better game.

I just wanted to ask you 3 questions, that I hope you can answer.

Question 1: Are you aware of the soldier camos not sticking issue, and are you working on a fix for it?

Question 2: Can you have a look at some of the weapon grips (visual glitch)? 90% of them do not fit on the weapon rails, and just float very close to them.  
Here is an example…

Question 3: Can we please have servers with Vanilla and DLC maps together?

The chainlink timer is too short. This causes that it is impossible to get the killjoy assignment in official servers!

And i also want to ask you about obliteration, if you could increase the timer at some point in the future. Ive asked it many times in the last few months but i never got an answer? ☹

They are increasing it to 20 minutes by default in a future patch. Confirmed by a CTE dev.

Since i can’t edit my last reply for some reason, i meant for Chain Link mode, not Obliteration.

To be honest, I didn’t expect you to answer all the questions.. And you did, and it only took you only 9 minutes.. I’m impressed. Thank you for all the answers, that’s all I wanted to know, cheers for the answers and the will to help :). Regained my trust in the developing team.

I have another problem quite strange. When I die and I directly look at the scoreboard and then I get revived and I accept, I have a bug in which I don’t have any inscriptions of objectives, map, teammates or enemies (so don’t know who to shoot at), without hit markers, and ammunition at right bottom, just the game himself. It happens to me on Xbox so I hope you will be able to fix this. Oh and make the black and white effect lighter when I go out of the map, either I can’t see nothing.
