Can you retrofit this into BF3 as well, DICE? FFS, the PC version already has the 360 UI for the server browser in both releases! (BF3, BF4!)
I'd rather use DICE's shitty in-game browser over having to use my web browser to find servers.
There's no reason to play 3 over 4 these days tho.

Yeah, I was okay with the concept, but at least in the earlier days getting it to consistently work was an enormous pain in the ass. Friends and I spent so much time fiddling with it to get Battlefield 3 co-op working, and I think in the end we never managed to finish that because of problems with Battlelog.I don't mind Battlelog in concept, but it's been plagued by bugs in my experience. I'm glad they are going back to doing things in-game.
What are the benefits of needing to load up the game and have it running to actively search for servers? I found that trade off ontop of running scripts over Battlelog preferable to any ingame customization UI/server browser.
You know what.
Battlefield 4 has been one of the best handled post release games of all time.
Obviously the release itself was something else, but that has well and truly been made up for.
Why not make it optional for the people that want to launch their game through a web browser. Offering a choice would be good here
Loading time have nothing to do with the server browser. The browser itself was super fluid. The best thing was you could just browse the internet, while the game was loading in the background and you didnt have to tab out and in to know whether the game finished loading.
I simply dont get why people argue that having a browser tab open is such a big deal. Isnt the web browser open all the time any ways?
Maybe people have forgotten how bad Battlefield ingame browsers actually were?
I think the BF 2 browser doesnt work properly to this day.
Worst case scenario is, we now get a console like server browser that doesnt offer nearly as many options, while making navigation more slowly and cumbersome to accommodate controller inputs.
But it will be ingame ,so yay, we won.
edit: its late and I'm salty. Bite me.
casually browsing game servers while multitasking other tabs and windows is so inherently PC I think I'm actually going to miss it.
I love Battlelog and I think it's incredibly convenient.
Maybe I should be posting that in the unpopular opinion thread
I feel the same way.
It's also not particularly efficient. Right now I have enough browser windows open that around 20% of my CPU is being used. So I definitely don't want to keep my browser running while I'm trying to run a high performance game like Battlefield Hardline (the campaign of which I'm going to be finishing up in a few minutes), which means in practice I have to micromanage two programs to play Battlefield. And while maybe it's just a problem with the engine because it's also true in campaign modes, the loading times are terrible.
Might need to re download BF4 haven't touched it in a long time. Is the PC community still around?

More shocked at the disparity between Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 numbers. Wonder why that is?
Metro was ported to BF4, dude. It has all the diversity it needs now.Sure there is. BF3 has a more diverse and superior set of maps. Unfortunately the UI is atrocious and makes me not want to play. Shame it isn't getting an upgrade.
The PS3 did well in a lot of emerging markets where people didn't immediately move to PS4 or XB1.More shocked at the disparity between Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 numbers. Wonder why that is?
Is that CPU load just from battlelog tabs? If not, it doesn't have any meaning.
didn't mind battlelog
when does this update go live?
