I've been trying this game out. To me it seems very glitchy at the moment. I'm having trouble binding keys now. First I couldn't shoot, then my weapon simply fired on its own. I think the key bindings were the main cause. I've sorted that but now I can't actually bind any more keys without the game crashing. Almost time to give up on it until they sort it all out.

We've just updated all graphics drivers, punkbuster and direct x so we can play this but now can't access any battlefield games at all. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Any sound when monitor goes off? Could try running in windowed mode then turn graphics settings down.

Sounds like your PC can't run it or the graphics settings it is trying to load are too high.

You could mess around in the config files or.....hit up the Battlefield forums. Apparently others are having the same issues.

As it is a beta problems will be there. If you have nvidia cards their app has optimum settings for the beta and they also have a beta driver built for bf4.

Pc should def be able to run it had tower custom built specifically to play battlefield using geforce gtx 570 graphics card. Not really technical enough to dare touch configuration files and have spent last 4 days on bf forums trying to get sorted ready to take a hammer to the pc now lol

It is hardly a "beta", game is about to go gold and releases in a few weeks.

Marketing "demo" maybe, with an older build, but i'm just being pedantic

I've got the 560ti and it runs fine so yours should be able to. But I would recomend doing the nvidia app for optimum settings still

You won't run it at Ultra with a 570, and might manage 45-55 fps on High. What RAM do you have on board and processor/ mobo?

Ok that doesn't sound good. Might be the drivers didn't install correctly. Have you tried re loading them?

I know like I said tower custom built for battlefield and problems only started when we updated drivers but still happened when we rolled back to driver we were previously using.

Id boot in safe mode. Uninstall your Nvidia graphics drivers. Reboot but do not let windows auto install graphics drivers when asked, just say cancel. Then run the Nvidia driver file again. I hope you made sure to download the drivers for the correct bit operating system you have too, which I'm pretty sure will be a 64bit one.

I didnt realise the beta was public access.

I was supposed to be catching on a load of web design I am aiming to be done before this game released.

Ahhhh the decisions...

I hate FAB its official.

I will also say curious that the game is still quite buggy. I cannot even change key bindings now without it going black and sitting for a few mins then crashing out. Having Punkbuster updated is a key thing and make sure that you add BF4 to the list and then update again.

Who installed all of the drivers for your custom rig? I agree you wont be able to run ultra with that card. My old GTX480 isn't going to let me either. What is annoying is that I'm swapping between BF3 and BF4 and BF3 is so much smoother. I'll wait to see what people say about the final release of BF4 is like before parting with my money as currently I can't say I'm that impressed with it.

That update has done nothing for me other than make it worse!

Auto graphics has now set everything to high whereas before my textures auto set to Ultra. Oddly even though the settings are now lower I am only hitting 35fps instead of 40-45fps. My key binding was going OK until I tried to setup aircraft then it just died on me again.
