List of new Battlefield 4 multiplayer details

A complete breakdown of all the new multiplayer features and additions showcased at E3.

Battlefield 4 was extensively showcased at E3 yesterday, where 64 players participated in matches all day long. And during the live stream of those matches, we got a lot more multiplayer details, such as new features, weapons, vehicles, and more. Above all, China is now confirmed as one of the Battlefield 4 factions. We’ve compiled a list of all the confirmed additions/features/changes added to Battlefield 4:
Infantry gameplay / weapons

• Pistols: Secondary weapons (pistols) can now be customized with attachments such as flashlights and silences — no more different versions of the same guns as in BF3.
• Grenades: several types of grenades can now be equipped besides regular explosive grenades. Flashbangs, smoke grenades, and incendiary grenades were spotted.
• Gadgets: there are two gadget slots and they are shared for all gadgets in the class, meaning that you can fully customize what you want in those two slots.
• Recon class now features the “motion ball” sensor from Bad Company 2, and the Recon also carries C4 this time.
• Main weapons can be equipped with two sights — a scope and iron sights.
• Grips: there are several new weapon grips in the game, such as angled grip, in addition to the fore-grip, etc.
• Knives: there are different knives in the game, such as a shank knife, the regular Ka-Bar, and more.
• Knife attacks can be countered/blocked.
• Suppression is toned down for all weapons except machine guns.
• Water: players can now shoot while in water, and they can sprint as well. Players can dive underwater as well.
• Ammo / Med kit: there are two types of ammo and med kits now, the larger ones which constantly heal/resupply, and smaller ones that instantly heal/resupply, but are used up immediately by the soldier.
• VOIP will be availble on PC in-game.
• Battlefield 4 squads now include 5 players.
• Spectator mode is confirmed.
• Chinese faction confirmed.
• All-new voice acting for multiplayer characters.
• Reloading: if you reload a clip before its empty, you lose the bullets in the clip.
• New weapons confirmed (among others): AT4 rocket launcher, RPG-7, Stinger, M320, Saiga-12K, P90, M4, M416, and Scout Elite.
• “Perks” are given to squads depending on how well they’re playing.

Vehicles

• New vehicle disabling feature. It’s now based on where the vehicle is hit.
• Tires can be shot out, making it harder to steer and operate a vehicle.
• Battlefield 4 helicopters now get night vision.
• Chinese Type 99 main battle tank confirmed.
• Chinese WZ-10 attack helicopter confirmed.

Commander

• The Battlefield 4 commander doesn’t count towards overall player count, so it’s 64 players + 2 commanders.
• Mobile Commander can only be played on tablets such as iPad — no phones are supported.
• Commander can use a mini-screen to see what every soldier on the map is seeing.
• Commander can give orders to squad leaders, who can accept or refuse the order

Yeah, I posted the same details in the other thread too. Thought there was 2 threads due to BF4 being on both gens.

Should either be support or engineer class, if they're gonna give it to a specific class... Would be best if any class had option to carry C4 or grenades...

Commander can give orders to squad leaders, who can accept or refuse the order

THANK YOU!! By toned down I hope they mean toned down a lot. That sh!t is annoying

Recon class now features the “motion ball” sensor from Bad Company 2, and the Recon also carries C4 this time.

Oh yeah great idea DICE, give the C4 to the moron campers.....

I cannot wait for this game to be released! BF3 was pretty fun this looks REALLY fun!

[Cory_Baumann]

This game is looking very promising!

People at E3 are stating that the tanks are moving a lot slower in BF4... least on start up and turning them around.

Thus, the tanks are super easy to take down currently.

Probably still figuring out how to balance everything in the MP. At the end of the day, we know what happens when gamers find a efficient way to kill

They exploit the hell out of stuff and basically spam it for all it's worth. Ruins the entire experience imo.

With a game this complex though, i'm sure they'll get if figured out by launch and beyond.

Some nice BF4 gameplay that is captured recording device, not a camera, showing off all the classes and vehicles

My GameStop will have it on launch day, so I'm assuming it is a go on day one

I did last night after seeing your post and the bonus content details; thanks for the heads up! I also got an email with the code for the 'field 4 unlockables. I had preordered at Best Buy, and have emailed them for clarification literally four times now explaining that there was talk that ps4 stocks may be short, that there has also been talk that Best Buy has a list of people preordering who are assigned the stock that Best Buy has been allocated, and asking them to confirm back that I have bene allocated stock and that they guarantee I can pick up on launch day. They've been vague duouchebags responding every time with vague details that don't answer my question so Amazon is getting my business. Also hats off to Amazon for having all of the FAQ's right on the product page leaving no questions about how it works.

It was late when I ordered last night...did you guys have the same experience that 2-day shipping was the option that gives you guaranteed launch day delivery?

I was pleasantly surprised how reasonable it was a like 7-8 bucks!
