    THE NIGHT MAPS PROJECT Goal Find and create night versions of existing maps where we emphazise sneaky tactics and use of equipment fitting the theme. We are not only looking to alter the way the map looks, but how it is played on a fundamental level through both lighting, gadgets and spotting. We will also look to further the storyline of the original map through this alternate version. Map Selection process Our first test map was Pearl Market for the CTEFun Halloween event. This map was chosen due to its many indoor and outdoor man-made lighting structures. All these lighting structures were edited, adding destruction so any area could become dark simply by shooting out the lights. With street lamps, neon signs, Chinese lanterns and physical interior lights, this map still remains one of the best choices for a night time in our opinion. As the Pearl Market Halloween version was a modification to the original map however, we had to find the best solution to be able to keep the daytime version intact. We figured out the best way to re-use without doubling the work, and set out to find the first map candidate. Initially, we started looking for similar other maps, with similar qualities. Immediately we identified Siege of Shanghai as another good, urban environment for nighttime play. For navigation, there are enough man-made lighting structures and the main building can still be seen from most places in the map. The night version of Siege will be our first map to get the "night" treatment. Extending the theme In the process of figuring out what map to start with, and what techniques to use - we started to realize that just making a night version might be cool and all - but what if we took it a step further? Looking at the original Siege storyline, we figured that this night version takes place prior to the actual Siege of Shanghai - the pre-siege basically. No levolution, no air vehicles and no roof access is our initial plan for this Pre-siege. We have lots of good ideas on how we can make this version truly unique - both look and play differently. There will be more details around this specifically as we push more updates through to the CTE. Equipment Challenges There is a lot of equipment in Battlefield 4. Some of these are seeing little use. We think it makes perfect sense to make night map play about utilizing FLIR/IRNV, flashlights and flares as tactical game altering gadgets. This is by no means finished yet, but you get an idea of where we want to take this going forward. Spotting One of the key problems seen in internal playtests revolved around how easy it is to spam 3d-spotting at night, which fully negates the whole ordeal. Our plans here are similar to those of the main game - we want to look at how accurate spotting is at distance AND have a much lower max distance when playing at night.
  6. https://sv.surveymonkey.net/results/SM-PVSWRBF7/ Here are the results of the community vote for our favorite maps that we want in BF4. We have 4 night maps coming and then these 4 maps coming. That is 2 DLC map packs.
  7. projects/springweaponsviewhistorytalk SPRING WEAPONS BALANCE PROJECT With the upcoming Spring Patch release, we want to look at our full weapons catalog and do some changes. GOAL: Better define the roles of primary weapons, clarify their differences and improve consistency, through: Tweaking effective weapon ranges per weapon type •See example illustration of new damage model: Open Weapon Damage Model Suppression changes •No suppression at optimal/effective range, only in the falloff ranges and beyond •The intent is for suppression to be used as a tool to reposition yourself in combat Making headshots more meaningful •Bring back 2 hit kill headshots within optimal range (varies per weapon, not available on all weapons) Reducing the impact of a high rate of fire •Keep both high and low rate of fire viable choices respectively Clarifying bullet spread, impacts and recoil •Improved 1P Tracer effects, Sniper vapor trails, bullet impact effects & sounds Making shotgun behavior more consistent
  8. Springtime for Battlefield 4 is packing a lot of heat! Read on to learn about what additions and updates the upcoming months have in store. Community Map Project Update One of the most exciting Battlefield 4 endeavors is the ongoing Community Map Project where you – the Battlefield community – are designing a multiplayer level together with us. In our first Community Map poll you decided on a jungle high-level setting, and in the second poll the top pick for Point of Interests ended up being waterfall, trailed by ancient ruins and ghost town. For more details, check out the open poll #2 results. This is a great start – and your wishes have truly sparked our imagination going into production. Based on your input, we’re putting together some map concepts, in which we will combine the high level framework, setting (jungle) and several of the top voted for Points of Interests. In the next poll we want you to decide on which of these concepts you think we should pursue and take into production! Look out for more information on that next week, along with the actual poll. Spring Update Brings Weapons Crate, New Game Mode As you know, we’re constantly tweaking Battlefield 4 gameplay with the help of your feedback and participation in the Community Test Environment. On top of this, we’re also adding new features to the game. Hitting late May, the Spring Update will reinforce the Battlefield 4 toy box as well as fill it with new things. For instance, we’re throwing an old favorite from Battlefield 3 into the mix with Gun Master. In this mode, the goal is to earn kills with a set of pre-determined weapons, using one weapon at a time. When getting enough kills with one weapon, the player moves on to the next level and weapon. This continues until players reach the thrilling end round, where a Gun Master can be crowned by getting the final kill. The Weapons Crate will contain five weapons new for Battlefield 4, including a classic lever-action rifle and a fan-favorite Russian assault rifle from a previous Battlefield game. Stay tuned for the exact content. Speaking of guns, all the Battlefield 4 weapons have received a balance pass to make your firefights as fair as possible. The image below shows the different effects your weapon has on different ranges. http://eaassets-a.akamaihd.net/battlelog/prod/61d099d23fe104fe673091d470c96970/en_US/blog/en/files/2015/03/cmp_2.png?v=1427396876.1 New weapon damage ranges and falloff/suppression model. More details on the balance pass can be found on Reddit. More details about the Spring Update and other matters will come in time, so stay tuned to Battlelog. Enjoy springtime in Battlefield 4!

  13. http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/173.192.183.146:25200/ GAME SERVER RANKING Game Server Rank: 666th (79th Percentile) 79th Highest (past month): 591st Lowest (past month): 2755th As of today, our rank is 666. Does this mean we need to ban the whole server? LOL That joke never gets old!
  14. I did this from the beginning. I use most of the weapons so it was no big deal. I did not really focus on any of it. I just let it happen. I did have to put effort in the air superiority because I don't fly.
  15. Here is a quick run down: 1.- MUST be a premium member. 2.-Unlock The Phantom Assignments The next thing you must do is log into your Battlelog on the official Battlefield 4 web page. There you will see “leaderboards” as one of the tabs at the top end of the page. After clicking on that, the global leaderboards will open. If you look at the bottom left of this page, you will see a very small silver skull icon. Clicking on this will open a command prompt style page. After all the mumbo jumbo finishes spouting its nonsense, you will be asked to enter a password for Phase 1. Enter the words “bumpinthenight”, no spaces, and without the quotation marks. This will unlock the first of four assignments. Next you will be asked for the password for Phase 2, which is “epic dream worlds”. Spaces this time, but again no quotations. Phase 3 will then be available, for which the password is “24344241893“, no quotations, but of course you knew that by now. You have 3 new assignments that list several tasks to do, but these are the least of you worries. I suggest you attempt to finish these assignments on the final stand map, as you will be running around looking at the floor like some sort of newb maniac who has never played an FPS in the pursuit of the next requirement. Before I explain what is expected of you, I will list the assignments tasks: Phantom Prospect Assignment Score 200 kills with Assault rifles. Score 200 kills with Main battle tanks. Get a total of 300 meter headshot (meaning collectively, not a single 300m headshot) Phantom Trainee Assignment Score 200 kills with pistols Score 20 kills in a jet Get 2x Shotgun Ribbons in a round Phantom Initiate Assignment Get 200 LMG kills Get 50 kills with explosives Get 25 roadkills These assignments will unlock two camouflages, one for your gun and one for your soldier, and a dogtag, all of which need to be worn to gain entry to the Phantom Bows secret location. There are a couple more physical requirements; another dogtag, as well as 3 other players. You need 4 players, each one having one of the tags that correspond with each of the maps in the final stand DLC. So essentially, if two of you find a tag on the same level, one of those tags will be of no use. If you wish to make this mountainous task a little more bearable, a much appreciated reddit user has posted a series of images pinpointing the exact locations that these tags could be found. http://imgur.com/a/hzBRN Once you have 1 of each tag for each of your squad, and you have equipped each of yourselves with all the previously mentioned Phantom camo and tags, you are good to access the room. Now that you have a fully Phantom clad squad, you are ready to find the elevator. On the Hangar 21 map, there is an inactive elevator up by the A flag in conquest. Get each of the four of you inside that elevator and it will activate and a button will be available to press. Once the elevator reaches the bottom of its descent, you will enter a room with a force field and a keypad on the right. The code, which was figured out by some very clever Morse Code savvy players, is “1290 429 397648 970“ (and I challenge you to try and enter the quotation marks this time). The code relates to flickering lights scattered around many of the levels. When the forcefield drops, you and your compadres can move in and grab the Bow. Don’t forget to also grab the “orders” that unlock the fourth assignment “Phantom Operative”. They are hidden on top of a cabinet in the room.

    It was brought up about changing the rotation of the maps. I thought about this and came up with a few ideas. You can load premade maps lists. Few players - it has smaller maps and game modes, chain link, dominiation, pearl market ect.. Air Superiority for when a few of us want some practice Rush - what the hell Domination Domination and Chian link for when you need more variety and there just aren't enough players getting on.

    If punkbuster banned his PBID and GUID then he will never be able to play on our server until punkbuster lifts the ban. Update to the latest version of punkbuster and see if that helps you.
