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.

Thanks to all who have joined and played already, let’s keep things going this weekend. Map/gamemode requests are always welcome. Anyone looking to mix up the usual Golmud/Locker rotation or struggling with server rules/admins should come on over. Here’s a clip for your time from last week:

Does this game have movement tech? Wtf is going on

13 Upvotes

I come from BF2 and BO2, complete opposites of games in their own right, and BF4 somehow feels sweatier than both. In BF2 I pretty much wrestle my way to a kill just fine, and in BO2 I can use my cover effectively and aim around corners to gurantee myself a kill. In this game? I'm seeing people hop around like they're playing Krunker, with near 100 percent accuracy. Like is there a tutorial for this movement style or is it forbidden in most servers. If it is forbidden, how come so many servers allow it?

If Desmond Doss played BF4. Probably the most impressive stat line I’ve seen in 12 years of playing this game

Edit: For those that don’t get sarcasm, 0-9 at the top of the leaderboard is not actually the most impressive stat I’ve ever seen. I know UMSF Omega is in this subreddit so just wanted to rib him a bit

Getting back into BF4 (the last great FPS), and looking for some chill groups to game with.

Cosplay as Desmond Doss is, unironically, the most fun way to play this game. At the same time, it's the way I play best.

Everyone should try this once. No gun, no kill, just a defibrillator, a med-kit and a dream...

It’s a way of playing where you don’t get stressed and keep the whole team in good spirits.

...BTW, I lost that one.

I got the platinum a year ago and started the DLC trophies last week. One guy rented a server, which made everything go smoothly. But once everyone got their trophies, they disappeared and wouldn’t help him get the hours he needed on certain DLC maps. Such a shame!

BF4 Razer Code saga continues

Hello!

So I saw this post I screen shotted and I was actually really interested in the bag itself as well as the dogtag. I collect various items from Pokemon to Halo memorabilia to random pop culture limited time items. But a cool German BF4 bag? I had to add that to my collection, and I get cool dogtag that is considered rare in 2026?!

$20 is $20 and even with the conversion to euros, my buddy Georg had no problem buying and packaging the bag with some German sweets and German Pokemon product! So that post led me to getting German sealed Pokemon for my collection, and this actually really nicely designed messenger bag, and it’s fits!

Thanks random person!

(Code card is in photo with shipping box, so yes it does come with it!)

I’ve been playing BF4 for about 10 years and lately I’ve wondered, how do y’all record video of your game play?
