    So, I was rather excited because the latest BF4 patch seemed to fixed many issues I was experiencing. Heck, my brother and I could even get into Conquest and play matches with crashes or servers crapping out (though playing with friends sucks in BF4 thanks to the lack of a party joining system). Well, even though the patch claims that it fixes the ailment of single player saves being corrupted I can say that no...it sadly does not. This is the fifth total time I've had this happen to me. Is the single player great? No, but I own the game so why not?

    Are you guys still experiencing any issues post-patch that were supposed to be nixed? I know they are supposed to have a fix out next week to address the "one hit kill glitch", but I've personally yet to experience this (that I know of).

    You lost you SP save five times and still continue to go back? Wow, that's some unbelievable dedication for a broke fucking game. Personally I sold my copy back the day before the patch came out because I decided that there was nothing Dice could do to fix this game, at least not for the foreseeable future. I lost my SP save twice (playing on hard and grabbing all the collectibles) and had five conquest matches crash out. I was stuck at level 3 for days because anytime I leveled the game would crash and kick me back. I'm guessing they will have the game actually "patched" (er... working) when its time to release the first DLC.

    So weird because I've BARELY had any issues with the game. It's crashed a couple times after the match was over but it was barely an inconvenience and I've never lost my multiplayer progress.

    Had since day one nothing but some crash issues really that apart from a few times made me quit cuz of lost progress in a game I was doing really good in(all my xp and such) had an entirely smooth experience.

    I have a fast system so I can stand that, I'm back in the game in like 3 seconds so...no big deal really. I know there has been issues on every platform, though, some people have more than others. It just like any other BF game can indeed be totally broken for some, and thats unfortunate. Just glad I've had a good experience with it and had a lot of hours of fun already.

    I've had zero issues since purchasing the game on black Friday for PS4. Played a few games of Conquest with minimal issues. Went through couple walls and had to commit suicide but other than that everything has been great. Forgot how muchi missed battlefield since skipped 3.

    I still think it's a mess. I'm not getting kicked out as frequently but it still happens. Also I get horrible stuttering while running and the audio is constantly fluctuating in a horribly disorienting way.

    Battlefield 4 still isn't done cooking and that's ridiculous. EA is the king of "release now and fix later" and I don't think people should buy their games at launch.

    If Battlefield 4 were a term paper and EA turned it in they would have gotten an F because it clearly isn't finished. Clearly.

    Betas shouldn't cost $60.

    EDIT: Oh yeah, buy premium.

    Main issue I had was that the 64 player servers didn't work. It was pointless to have a PS4 party when I couldn't even show off the biggest mode for that game. Only last week did it get fixed, and now the DLC map pack comes out next week. So everyone can finally play together and they're going to segregate it by releasing a paid map pack just a short while after. Fuck EA for that shit, they should release the DLC for free or postpone its release a little bit.

    New patch comes out today. I can play one maybe two conquest matches without crashing. But now when I play rush as well it crashes. Which is weird since I heard it mostly happens in conquest. Its pretty frustrating since I've beaten my other ps4 games and this multiplayer is addicting to play but crashing makes me not want to play it.

    @lord_xp: They actually announced that they have pushed the patch back further for PS4 to do additional testing.

    @demoskinos: dont upgrade to premium. Ive read that installing the DLC causes problems, like you cant join games.

    I have been waiting to start the single player campaign on PS4 till I know I wont lose progress. Can I start yet?
