Dice are pretty quick to fix problems, biggest issue with BF4 is developing for 5 platforms- BF3 was for 3 and PC was dropped as lead platform to get the console versions out the door.

Not sure where you get the 'year' to fix BF3 as it was only a few months but thats normal for any new game released these days.

As for cheating, hacks are profitable and its basically a cat and mouse game between them and punkbuster, punkbuster will catch up and ban a few people but the hack deveopers will always be ahead.

What BF4 uses in addition to punkbuster which is client side- is fairfight which is a server based script and monitors the game- hackers will have above game average score and many are being banned and wiped beacuse of this.

BF3 was released in November 2011, and the last update was 3/4 months ago - with still a lot of stuff needing to be fixed (and by all accounts support has now been stopped for it).

Not sure what stuff still needs fixing as the game has been playable for quite a long time, support will likely continue but it will be a very small team.

As I mentioned previously, NaN needs fixing - apparently its been like that a while (and even the EA support person I spoke to has the problem).

Then there are :

And then there is a problem where you are directly next to someone and collision detection doesn't always work (usually a shotgun problem).

Black loading screens (not as bad as it has been, but it is still present).

Is SPM such a big worry for players, its always going to be higher for those that play infantry only on small maps compared to large conquest, does it affect gameplay at all?

BF3 net coding is the issue their and its always been [censored] as its client side and not server side hit dection- change your network smoothing factor.

The black loading screen, most of the issue are due to foreign versions of the game bought on russian cd key sites- are other issues but each system is different.

My network smoothing is, and always has been at 0.

The SPM value isn't important. The calculation for it is - if its a NaN value, then either its too high to be displayed (unlikely), or, more likely, they are stupidly trying to divide by 0. Hence a rather silly bug that needs fixing. It also only seems to happen after stats are reset.

And good news, my all time K/D is now 1.0! Yey!
