BF4 left very bad taste in my mouth. Won't buy any Battlefield game again.
Really? Why?

You can't host Dota 2 servers either.

Well I think EA/DICE generally avoids giving server source codes publicly for monetary purpose.BF4 left very bad taste in my mouth. Won't buy any Battlefield game again.
There's also this cheat/hack thing which could be a possible concern for them. There are tons of people using pirated codes to host servers for mp games and people without license/key can play.

From business point of view they can dictate the life of the game by owning their own servers and they can choose to pull the plug whenever they want. However considering how long BF3 has been going on, I doubt that they will do that anytime soon.
But since EA is more concerned with piracy, their own servers means that pirates won't be able to play online.

Yes I know that but if I have 10 people then I can create a lobby and play easily. That is not a option in Battlefield titles because I'll have to search a server with 10 open slots and pray that someone else specially premium member doesn't kick in while me and my friends are joining the server. And of course there is ping issue. Ping issue can be eradicated in the games I mentioned through LAN or hosting a hosting a server very near to your place.

why for the bold sentence.BF4 left very bad taste in my mouth. Won't buy any Battlefield game again.
best online shooter for me.
the ballistics made the game so much fun. although i never could master shooting out helos and jets far away with a tank.

true. singapore BF3 servers, although far lower in number than what they used to be, still had a queue when checked last week.
but what has surprised is how, in the age when leaks are abundant and expected, server source codes have not been leaked. :\
btw, has the horrible punkbuster crap been done away with BF1?
I saw numerous bans happening in the public chat window during the beta.
wouldnt it be love if they could implement something like this with BF1?
like we all could create a game and others could join in. ping issues could be eliminated for good. and they could have kept official servers for when players would want to jump into an international fray.
i believe anti-cheat can be implemented in lobbied games, although i am not aware how. how is it done in a DOTA lobby?

again, how in effin hell did EA manage to keep the source code for servers under wraps??
OP
Source code leaks are not very common and not very easy either. If it were so easy to hack and steal source code, the source codes of banking apps and other such softwares would be easily available. Any company that uses proper security measures won't have their source code stolen. Same goes for EA who are pretty much paranoid about pirates.

You quoted my reason already. I bought the game but couldn't play because of ping and server issues. So basically I was fcked because EA couldn't handle the servers properly, if there was a provision of private servers then Mani could had created server and I could had played with you guys. Kinda like in Insurgency, GRAW etc but I couldn't because of fckin EA policies. I know I am also at fault because of shitty internet connection, but its gonna continue with me and this game so yeah it left very very bad taste in my mouth. Download a 25 GB game only to find that you can't play the game and then delete the game from your HDD without playing even 10 hrs.

are they revising the gfx settings from the open beta to a higher state?
if not, then i see no reason that i shouldnt hit the 60fps that i had in open beta.

also, whats the logic of recommending a K-series CPU? just recommend an i7

PS if the 660 is a recommended req, the 960 will be more than happy to tear it apart.
also, its showing that the game CPU heavy and goes light on the GPU.
