Oh why hello there, Spartan here bringing you all my impressions of the BF4 beta.
Overall, it was fun. It brought back memories of Bad Company 2 in ways I can't really describe right now.
But, it did have it's issues though, like most betas.
First, visual issues were abound. Knifing looks glitchy and slow. The infamous caterpillar man has returned. But, these issues will be fixed by launch.
However, there is an overall lack of team work in my opinion. Everything seems to be about yourself, from personal ammo and health packs to assault classes (like myself) using the grenade launchers and personal health packs. Maybe that's just me, and my experience, but overall things seem to have shifted in a more personal direction.
Hopefully, DICE will be able to shift the focus from thinking of yourself to about the team overall, like in previous games.
One last issue that I thought was major, but didn't bring up in the video, was the constant freezing and lagging. This was a big issue, and something that frustrated me a lot. Previously, BF3 had issues with this as well, and it took DICE a while to fix them. Hopefully, they'll be able to address this issue, and resolve it quickly.
Thank you all for watching, and take care!
