Sounds like your XBL email is different from your Origin one? Origin by default checks for a match there.

Link your XBL tag to your Origin account via the PC client. You can unlink/link properly there.

it's not, same email. and i tried linking it via pc client like others have mentioned, it failed saying email was already linked... i just gave up and created a new origin id on my xbox. I'm assuming origin is just that shitty.

appreciate the reply though!
 
I tried to get this game today... I went to bestbuy and they actually sold out. It's 2015 and Bestbuy sells out of Battlefield Hardline. Is it 2001? How does Bestbuy sell out of a videogame or even any store for that matter?

I go across the street to Gamestop and of course they are selling it for $60 instead of $40 like everyone else and of course they say they can't price match it because Gamestop.
 
Got a Battlefield Hardline origin PC CD Key, selling for £25 ($37)! Bought it yesterday but realized I've got way to much work to be playing Battlefield atm! Someone buy it off me please, don't think you're going to find a cheaper key for sale anywhere else
 
Having issues getting the game running on PC. Tried multiple browsers, but both the campaign and MP won't load. Updated drivers and everything.

Any ideas? Is this a known issue?

Patch is now waiting for cert on consoles, so expect this within a week or 2.
 
How's this game running on PC for everyone?

I'm able to run it Ultra @1080p/60FPS just fine for multiplayer, but Campaign runs like total ass at these settings. Is this to be expected or is it a problem with the game/my rig? i7 4790K / GTX 980.
 
And we still lost haha

Picked up the game at Best Buy when it was on sale for $40 this weekend. Some thoughts that I'm sure you've all stated over and over by this point.

Campaign is a bad 80's cop show in the best of ways, and the most fun I've had in a BF campaign since BC2. Man BF3 and BF4 had shit campaigns.

MP is great fun, but I feel like I'm getting cash at a turtle slow pace compared to the cost of new weapons, which is extra salty when each side has different weapon choices, so I can only use my purchases half the time. Maybe I'm missing something?

Spawning blows, and I can throw my K/D to the wind, because spawning in front of enemies that immediately gun me down seems to happy a good 10-20% of the time. I noticed some headlines mentioning fixing it today, but I just got off a game thirty minutes ago and didn't notice any difference. Perhaps PS4 hasn't gotten the patch yet? I also noticed it in conquest, not just TDM.

Nobody has got the patch, so the spawns haven't been fixed yet. It's coming in one or two weeks, depending on how long certification on consoles take.

If you need cash play Hotwire.

I hope this fixes my issues, but I'll keep troubleshooting.

There's not even that many people playing Hardline on PC here in Australia, really regretting my purchase.
Click to expand...

Had any luck getting it running? Did you update punk buster? Also try deleting the battlenet plug in for your browser and reinstall it.

I'm in Australia as well and I've been surprised to see how most of my BF friends have stuck with BF4. Though I find HL hot wire servers are usually pretty full (and good fun).

Wow no fixes for rep gain for tier 4? It's like they want us to exploit to get our trophies.
Click to expand...

No, they want you to buy gold battlepacks since rep 4 is trivial with a 100% or better rep boost. I got most of mine for Mech just using a 50% boost. It required a balanced game though so the round would last long enough. If teams were stacked the rounds didn't last long enough.
 
I just finished the campaign today and I really enjoyed it! The characters weren't annoying to me like in Bf4,especially that annoying colonel women. Ughh. Also, Roy Earle. Only played a few matches of conquest on MP,but had fun.
 
I'm enjoying it, apart from I always seem to die in a single shot yet I get hitmarker after hitmarker when shooting others. Although that might have been due to not realizing that you could select a region in the filters, until someone from the east coast told me I was in the wrong region (doh).

Will have to try again tonight to see if I get hitmarker city, but Im guessing I havent always been in US servers as i would always connect to the servers with full bars, and often faced Ze Germans.

Also the standard sniper rifle, I get torso hits and no kills, yet I have been OHK when I was 100% healthy and the killed by info stated i was hit in the torso.

Whats the best way to take vehicles (especially helicopters) down? I always seem to struggle and end up dead more than often.

don't see this happening in a legit way, same goes for the Ballistic shield coins.

Ballistic shield coins are easy. The shield can handle a lot more damage from vehicle weapons. Plant yourself in front of someone on a mounted gun in Heist, and make sure to crouch so they don't shoot your feet.

They're pretty easy to get if you have a hacker that knows what they're doing.
 
So the sequel to Battlefield: Hardline is going to be Bad Company 3 and B Company are going to steal all his gold and shit, right?

if I remain in place for more than 10 sec I have a tendency to get shot in the back. :/

EDIT: Especially around vehicles.
 
Stupid Question: Is there a way to increase the menu text Font size on the console releases?

I'm playing on my Xbox One from my couch ten feet away from my television....and some of the text is just really small in the customization menu; reviewing possible Loadout options seems more difficult than it should be...

I mean, I guess I'm getting older...but d@mn....LoL.

There should be a size slider in the options.
 
Can anyone shed any light or got any thoughts on why games in BF4 & BFH become so unbalanced with one team sometimes having 4 or even 6 more players than the other team ?

It's unfortunate and really ruins a match that can be even still and start with 16 v 16 etc.

I sometimes wish the game would stop and rebalance the teams but I guess people would not want to move to the point team.

It is something that needs looking at if not now then for SWBF & BF5 in the future.

Well, you said it. If coincidentally a lot of people from only one team leave the server, or a squad joins, the game won't rebalance because people would be pissed if they got moved over, and rightfully so.
I remember that on PC there were a couple of servers that would start balancing even if one team had only like 2 people more. So if you'd join the server mid-round, you'd constantly be moved from one team to another. I absolutely hated that, so I think it's fine as it is.
 
I've been on a mission to gold all the cocktail guns in the game, the mpx is done, UMP is less than a hundred kills, and I've just started on the K10.

Cheers for replying with that info, guess there is no easy solution/compromise then or DICE/Visceral would have found one by now.

Just have to suck it up I guess.

Thanks for the reply.
Thanks to you, I did see the "Advanced Options" under the "Game Settings" section. And that was helpful for tweaking the in-game stuff - size of objective indicators, minimap, health bars, etc.

But I didn't see options for tweaking the "Customizing" area. When I'm trying to put together a Loadout, that section is still rather hard to see from far away. ....Is there an area where I can tweak that....?
 
just finished the campaign, and I really liked it. Reminds me of a mix between MGS4, Splinter Cell, and Far Cry. I guess the chances of single player dlc are pretty slim, but I hope this gets a sequel.
 
These new modes are awesome so long as both teams are actually playing the objective (like in every Battlefield game):

End of the match with last package in play, they somehow wiped most of us out and made it over to the extraction point with one ticket left. Due to my QUICK THINKING and HEROIC INSTINCTS we were able to pile into the spawny truck and make it over just in time. Not sure what happened, just that there was fire and we won.

For some reason the xboxclips thing rarely loads, causing me to miss out on your legendary adventures. Sometimes life just isn't fair. But yeah, the K10 is crazy. Was going to stick with the MP5 up to 1000 kills then move on, but didn't want the pre-nerf K10 era to go by without getting my cut of the cheese.

Unrelated, but here's a Breathtaking "Only in Battlefield" moment from the other day (on my YT, so you know it's good. quality control is key)

It's unfortunate that the test range didn't make it in (not that it really helped in BF4), but it's still mind-boggling that people don't just hit up an empty server, mess with the controls and figure it out. Like three minutes--boom, you can fly without crashing. Nope.

I rage too often about this.
So much so, i now rarely bother getting in chopper if someone else is piloting, i have pretty much lost faith in all pilots because of my bad luck and those select few who insist on piloting, when they have no idea what the fuck is going on.....I audibly beg whenever im in a chopper...i beg for a decent pilot, i dont expect experts but atleast get us around man.

When i get a good pilot....its love at first flight, in BF4 i met a cat who was just a beast at piloting....I repaired the shit outta that chopper....we are now married with 2 kids and a dog.



Sucks that the test range aint around...BF4 was the first console BF i played so i had no idea how to fly choppers...i just hit the test range for what seemed like hours getting the the controls down pat and learning maneuvering, when they upgraded the agility of the choppers, i was in heaven.

So true.
I sometimes feel guilty running around with the K10....then i just say fuck it, it wont be christmas forever.

Not a reply
Battle rifles need help man at default.
I finally started upgrading them, and the first few matches with them i believe are based rather accurately on a form of medieval torture.
Finally got the SA and SCAR up to to 90 kills.....and now finally they feel like a gun worth holding....but fuckem, im going back to my K10.
