BF4 Beta

BF4 Beta is out now for anyone that was BF3 premium. Shit's pretty legit, unfortunately they changed around the console controls.

Seems a lot different from 3. I have mixed opinions so far, but it's only the beta so a lot can be changed.

Yeah, I've only got about an hour play time so far but a decent K/D and SPM. Hopefully they fix some of these bugs (I am STILL freezing on PS3 once every five games or so) and let me map my own controls.

I might just buy it. I don't think I've ever paid the full $60 for a game but... I picked up BF3 for $5 during humble bundle and I really enjoyed it.
My only complain is, it's just not personal enough. Unlike, say, CS:GO where you can hear footsteps coming up on you, step to the edge and blast a fool as they walk past you, it's just so disconnected.
Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of having tanks, choppers, etcetera, but it sucks when one team has a huge edge either through spawn camping or player unbalance and then it really ruins the game. Still though, I've had a lot of fun with the destruction and gameplay mechanics...

Get some good audio and you can definitely hear footsteps .

Go to the PS Store, find BF4, and right under the $59.99 "buy game" option should be the "download demo"

I had to sacrifice my great headphones for a sub-par pair with a mic, as the great ones had no mic.

Really...
Sign in -> PS store -> triangle -> right on dpad to search -> x-> search "battlefield 4' -> click where it says "Battlefield 4 (game)" -> go down from "Buy game $59.99" to "download demo."
This should be for anywhere in the USA, I have confirmation it works from east coast to west coast (no confirmation for Alaska or Hawaii)

yeah, no kidding. there isn't a BUY GAME. it says "add to cart" that's all i got. nothing below it either. after that "add to cart 59.99" clicker, you go down to this overview tab which is already opened by clicking on the game title from the search, so you go down below that and you've got add-ons, screenshots below that one then recommended games.
no demo. maybe it's because i'm in Canada, but fuck Sweden right now, fuck stupid Sony and their supremely slow, and gay online store and fuck all the asshats who set this up.
seriously, this shit should be obvious. maybe it's because i cheatered the system, and bought a used copy of BF3 and never had to even buy a reclaim code to play online, nor did i have to pay for Premium because i had my friend purchase his P-account on my PS3, so i got access through his PS3 profile to download the activation key, that let me DL all the addons for free.
ha
ha hahahaha
but maybe that's it, because there is a three day early pass to P-members, right, but maybe i'm just not... "in the system". 
fuckin' shit sticks.

It very could be because you're in Canada. If I knew my PSN password I would let you log in and download it, but alas, I don't. It should be an open beta starting FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4TH.

You're not missing out on that much. It's only one map and two game modes.

yeah, i've just been excited for BF4 for awhile now. i want to see the changes, damn it. if they didn't fix some things, i'll be disappointed. if so, though, i'll be pleased.
oh well, it's only a couple weeks till it's released. can't wait.

They haven't fixed the freezing problem on PS3 (twice frozen out in about ten games).
They changed the controls and won't let me change them to BF3 controls.
Graphics = batter. Destruction = hoping it gets better with the final release.
Still only 12v12 on the beta, which is extremely slack.

well, PS3 limitations will be ELIMINATED for PS4. wonder what new problems will crop up though.
you know, i hope in BF, the knifing controls gets touched up. i hate having to press AND HOLDING L2 to get the knife out. first off, sometimes i wanna use it quickly, and i may miss, and along with that, i may sometimes have held the button down by mistake and then my knife is held out right? so i try to swing again, and in my high state i am pressing L2 frantically and NO KNIFING. it's like my guys just holding the knife cause OH YEAH you're supposed to start using it like any other weapon then, with L1.
plus you can't just press L2 a bunch of times to swing repeatedly? it's like you press L2, you take a swing and then your guy takes the time to put the knife but in it's sheath before you have to press it again, and by then the slow ass knifing has gotten you killed... all because you didn't hold the L2 button and pull out your knife preemptively like you're somehow gonna prepare for an attack with it? mostly it doesn't even work that way, at all, but sometimes i'll take out my knife, and hide somewhere, like in the boxes somewhere at B when you first get in the subway at Metro. i'll wait and slip out and just *slit*, but other then that kind of tactic... the hold sheathing-unsheathing thing is stupid.

Spotting is now done with R2. Melee is R3, and you can't hold your knife and run. L2 is grenade. Select brings you to a friends "battlelog" menu. Holding start is the scoreboard. Circle is crouch/prone/dive. R3 is just as slow to repeat slash as L2 was.
It's more COD controls which I'm not a big fan of.
