Note, I have edited, added, updated to this post since original post date of 10-14-13. Starting with Battlefield 4’s Beta to game release console commands, graphic settings, pc performance and overall game review.Other than the Beta itself, I have narrowed the big performance issue down with Battlefield 4 that I myself and many others have been experiencing. From adjusting all settings and still low frames and stuttering, and reading the Battlefield 4 forum on performance problems, there was a pattern I began to see. Those like me with Windows 7 had the low frames, and stuttering. With Windows 7 started out with 10-20 fps, through adjusting settings improved to 30-50 but still stuttering bad. Those with Windows 8 were reporting higher frames for the most part, and smoother gameplay.I installed Windows 8 Enterprise edition (90 day trial) on a second spare hard drive. Installed the hardware drivers, Nvidia 331.40 Beta driver, Origin and Battlefield 4 Beta.
With Windows 8 after installing, game auto set my game setting between Ultra and High, WITH HBAO Occlusion on. Best oblivion ui mod. And to my surprise, 62-95 FPS and smooth as butter. I running a AMD FX-8350 8 core at 4.4 Ghz, with a Asus GTX 660 TI and 16 GM of system ram.
Could not get over 52 FPS on Win 7 all week, with frame drops down to as low as 11! A few weeks later, as you’ll see further on down below, found 3-4 cores going parked during game on Windows 7. November 3, 2013Your “b” key is opening the console?? Now that is strange, but with this game so far, does not surprise me at all.
Have no idea, but. Not sure you can bind a key to the console tilde key, but I’d check your keybinds, all of them. See if or what that “b” is keybinded to.Edited; Hummmm, will have to check that myself. But just did some googling, looks like the B key and the console is listed as a Battlefield 4 Beta Bug, well looks like that to carried over. Oh man, what a mess this game is.listed under “Moderate”, 6 lines down.Google it “b key on bf4 brings down console commands” you’ll find many more posts about this “bug”Edited: you are correct, “B” key is bringing down the console, oooh man could see this being a big problem right here, LOL.
