I don't believe it makes any logical sense for these bugs to be associated to one platform. It has entirely to do with how the game was coded internally - there are no differences between any of the platforms that would bring out and cause any of these bugs (except the sound dropping perhaps).

Well luckily we don't have to take your uneducated assumptions as truth, we can look to DICE for answers: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2955065670203355766/

Follow the link and you will see the Battlefield 4 Top Issues Tracker and they list what platform the bugs are one. There are bugs that affect all the systems and ones that are found only on certain systems.

I don't see how it doesn't make sense that different platforms have different bugs, they don't release patches at the same frequency for all the systems so common sense would tell you that some have more bugs than others.

I bought it a while back because I saw it had the Spy Vs Merc multiplayer back. Unfortunately the mp just wasn't as good as I remembered it, not sure if i changed or the gameplay changed, but it was bland.

The co-op was pretty fun though but honestly I haven't tried the single player yet, maybe ill try to play it this break.

Primal Carnage is a high quality indie Dino game that's somewhat new, it's multiplayer only though but it may be worth checking out. Stomping Ground is a new amazing looking dino game that you'll want to keep your eye on.

ORION: Dino Horde is also a decent co-op or SP game where you defend your base against waves of dinosaurs. It originally came out as ORION: Dino Beatdown and was horrible, but they remade the game and renamed it Dino Horde and it's actually pretty entertaining.

And yes you can get King Kong for PC. I thought it was a great game when I played it back in the day.

@Croag821: No, I didn't try to stop it. By the time I realized it, it had already consumed 3GB worth of downloading. Also, the update that is 24 GB is the multiplayer portion, not the single player.

Thats what I thought too, but after it downloaded I clicked multiplayer and it had to download like 6GB more.

Hmmm must have been an issue with it not realizing you had the disk or something. Did you try stopping the download, deleting the file contents, and running the game again?

I had a different issue with similar outcome, my CD drive broke so I had to enter to the code and DL the damn thing. Funny part was I only wanted the 6 gb multiplayer download, not the huge single player one.

Who knows. It's really hard to judge an MMO till it's been out for a bit because of all the stupid hype they build up.

To me ESO looks like they gutted the series and turned it into a themepark style MMO, I hope I'm wrong though.

Wildstar I don't really know anything about. I've seen some PvP video's and it looks interesting with the action combat and such but I'm interested to see if it's actually gameplay differs from other themeparks.

I have the highest hopes for EQ Next, but again I don't know anything about it.

If your just looking for a traditional themepark I'd say your probably can't go wrong with ESO, if you want something a bit more sandbox I'd wait for Star Citizen, ArcheAge, or The Repopulation.

If those are the only bugs you've encountered, then you're either lying or you're just dumb and somehow manage to ignore other bugs when they occur. I don't know - did you happen to only play the game for a couple hours or something? I have 25 hours logged in the game - do you have kind of time logged? If DICE can even acknowledge a few dozen of the staggering amounts of bugs and glitches, I'm sure you could acknowledge more than two...

I have 27 hours logged http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/soldier/Drakes821/stats/173938949/pc/

You can call names and suggest I'm lying, I don't care, I'm just speaking from personal experiences. I'm not denying there aren't other bugs in the game, you can go to the DICE bug tracker and clearly see there are others, I'm just saying that the game has been very playable for me and my friends lately and I find it hard to believe these game breaking bugs are as widespread and happen as regular as you suggest.

If you're having fun but can't give your opinion about the game without lying about the state of it - then obviously your opinion doesn't matter. Let's put this into different context, but with the exact same point: Am I on a high-horse if I don't value an illiterate's opinion on the book "Atlas Shrugged"? If that's the case then I must be a real asshole for not seriously accepting a blind man's opinion on paintings of art. You might think that these are irrelevant situations, but they are very much so relevant and the point is the same fucking thing...

Just because you have an opinion doesn't automatically mean it has value... and just because you're having fun with the game doesn't mean that it's not broken in more ways than you can count. If anything, you should be able to see why people are having a negative opinion on the game and respect that they have a very valid reason for their opinion. Hell, I like BF4 and it's a lot of fun - but if you can't accept that it's a broken PoS right now, then you're either in denial or just ignorant to what makes a game broken. Things are more complicated than black and white. It's a fun game, sure, and I'd love to recommend it, but to believe it was released in an acceptable state leads me to believe that some people here are delusional. As I said, the problems that people are complaining about en masse are problems that are universally effecting everyone. If you think these problems don't attest to the game's broken state, then what you're really doing is just saying you have lower standards than everyone else.

Many of us just think the standards should be a little higher for a finished game, sorry you disagree. But to shrug this game's issues off and "oh it crashed once for me and that's everything wrong with it that I've experienced" leads me to believe that someone isn't even playing the same game as the rest of us. Spend five minutes searching up "BF4 bug" on Youtube and you will discover the dozens of game-breaking issues that manage to effect everyone's experience except a small minority who apparently received a significantly less buggy version of the game.

What? So if we have fun and like the game your comparing it to an illiterate man's opinion on a book? You think your a gaming connoisseur or something?

If you read my post and other's in this thread no one is saying the game doesn't have bugs, it does, but your completely blowing them out of proportion based on my experiences. I haven't encountered anything in the last week besides some net code issues where you get killed after you round a corner and some bad hit detection.

It sucks if you can't play and your game is broke, I'd be pissed too, but my friends and I seem to have gotten lucky and got working games and we play with the thousands of other people online who have working games.

This isn't an issue pinpointing particular people, so really what it comes down to is that you're so inattentive when you play that you don't notice how piss-poor the netcode is. Most of us, unlike you, are having a difficult time ignoring it. Sure - inattentive people are having fun ignoring the issues with the game. Too bad there's really very little value to an opinion of someone that doesn't actually know what's going on due to their ignorance.

The game is fun, sure. But to deny that fact that it's a hugely buggy mess is more of a testament to how 'out-of-it' you are and less of a testament to the game's quality. Or did you just so happen to get shipped the magical copy that no one else received? LOL

Wow...so if you have fun with the game your ignorant and your opinion doesn't matter...that's what your going with? Can you even read what you type from your high horse?

Your just like so many other jaded gamers who just like being bitter and can't over look flaws in games and have fun. Have fun being grouchy while us "inattentive" people play games.

I think your being a bit harsh, sure it's had issues but it's been playable for most people since launch (ignoring the occasional crash).

Who are these "most people"? I'd like to meet them.

Go to the battlelog internet page and hit multiplier server browser, you will then see thousands of people playing on different servers.

Sure BF4 had a rocky launch and it still has issues. For me I enjoy it enough to overlook them.

Obviously some people such are yourself can't and that's cool I understand, but I don't understand your need to post completely irrelevant videos and bash the game while not even acknowledging the OP's question.
