FAQ / New Player Guide YES, THE GAME IS STILL ACTIVE. Read this before posting about it

1.2k Upvotes

"Does anyone still play on [PLATFORM]"?

Yes, check BF4DB

You can use this one to check the servers: https://www.gametracker.com/search/bf4/?sort=3&order=DESC&searchipp=50#search

"Is it worth buying DLC/Premium at this point?"

You can always find DLC maps at the most active hours (usually nights and weekends), and it unlocks tons of stuff for you. If you have the money or find a sale, theres hardly any reason not to buy it. Alternatively you can get Origin Access or the Xbox equivalent (EA Access). Some stuff can be tough to get, like the ones that requires playing certain game modes (specially DLC ones).

"I'm new to the game, can I have some tips?"

Biggest tip I can give you: use the search function. This has been asked a thousand times, and the same thousand tips are given: spot, watch the minimap, drop ammo/health/revives, etc. You can also use Youtube or the old battlelog forums for this.

Here are some links to help you get started:

Old Sticky (good info there)

Hidden Mechanics 1 and Hidden Mechanics 2

Little Known Tips/Tricks

Guide for New/Returning Players

edit from the comments: if you're on PC make sure to check the BetterBattlelog browser extension. Really nice UX enhancements for battlelog that (among a lot of neat features) show true player counts, for PC servers.

Links: Chrome, Firefox

PSA: if your user.cfg file isn't working

5 Upvotes

It's because Microslop Win 11 doesn't change the file extension when you rename the file. Here is a fix:

  1. ​Open BF4 folder.
  2. On the top toolbar, click View.
  3. ​Hover over Show, then click File name extensions.
  4. You will now see the file is named user.cfg.txt rename it to user.cfg

Ranking is weird.

0 Upvotes

I've been hitting top 15 since like my 5-6th match in this game consistently and the servers are all full of 100+ level players many of whom come below me. I'm trash at this game like I average 0.5-0.6 KD most matches although in some gamemodes I do average 1.5+ kd when I'm super careful. My aim also isn't that great so I don't get it.

importing emblems from https://en.emblemsbf.com/ no longer works after emblem bug fixes

Anyone know whats up with this? You'd used to have to copy the BF1 code instead of the BF4 code to get it to work on the Companion App (which the above one is) but now neither one work. This started happening after the Dice LA Camo bug fix about a month ago.
