I used to think these forums were bad...

Then I spent a little time on the BF4 beta forums. Holy hand grenades Batman. It's all personal attacks and flame-wars there. They make these forums look positively civilized in comparison. Nice to see that even at our lowest the PS2 community still has at least a modicum of civility in it.

OK, that is all. Now you can go back to your regular NC are UP, TR are OP threads.

people are just sensitive as hell in this community.

Despite what everyone says, its pretty hard to get a good & civilized forum. I haven't been to other forums but im pretty sure this is better than the MLG community over there.

To get on topic:

STRIKER OP! NERF NAO!

i can confirm this. i pretty much enjoy playing the beta right now but, hell, those forums are a no-go area mostly filled with immature kids, trolls and people who have a low iq. ingame chat isnt better either, usually consisting of flaming and hackusations

granted, there are black sheep in every community but, in my view, PS2 has much less of them compared to other shooter games

Does the BF forums have as little moderation as this?

BF4 forums never experienced a EliteEskimo PSA

its better than other fps forums where just about everyone is nasty
whats wrong with being civil?

bf3 forums was no different (at least when i played it) just full of everyone abusing each other and saying childish stuff all the time
i like the more mature community of the ps2 forums

You've not met SOE-MOD-02?

SOE-MOD-04 takes SOE-MOD-02 any day tbh.

No Thread who did can tell of it

You mean Battlelog? That place is a cesspit and has always been lol.

There's only two worthwhile places for any BF related discussions or info:

1) Endless circle jerk: Battlefield 4's Reddit
2) Black hole of negativity (reborn EA UK forums) : MordorHQ

08 is the man

Yeah I tried to avoid the BF3 forums as much as possible and I haven't been on there for BF4 at all yet.

So long as you don't say ZOEs are weak (they are) and Phoenix's are great (they are) and the NC MAX with Aegis Shield is awesome (it is) then you're fine. We gotta stick with this NC underpowered hivemind for a while longer while no NC adapt their tactics to the equipment they have.

Example - VS MAX always had a higher KD when pulled than any other MAX but VS was convinced it was weak til they gave it ZOE. NC are convinced their equipment is subpar and won't use it despite the advantages they get from it. Probably gonna have to wait for the rest of the NC to catch up with using their awesome stuff until it's all buffed out of proportion.

As forums go, this place is not at all bad, one of the more pleasent to visit.

Of course ingame it another story, at night anyway, then all the intolerable people come online, on Miller anyway.

Yeah the Battlelog forums are lots of fun. The moderators don't give a crap to such a high degree that BuzzCutPsycho routinely used "colorful" words to describe people of color without even receiving so much as a moderator warning.

The forum will be more alive with a little drama in it

Yeah, this is a pretty nice forum. And it IS moderated, as I can well attest to <ahem>. 'nuff said. For all the arguing that goes on here, it's still pretty benign for the most part. That's nice.

It'. Usually 08 that comes and junk punches me after I get 'animated' on these forums. I don't even have to swear anymore lol, he just deletes my posts and leaves me a message if I post an opinion thats gonna rub people up the wrong way

Thats because prolly 90% of BF4 players are horny, idiotic, illegally semi drunk teens who know nothing but Yo mamma jokes and stupid comments about each other's junk.
