hmm gonna have to change my speakers too. The PC is way under my desk so I cant reach the jack sockets for the headphones and mic. I need to find some cheapish speakers that have those sockets on the front of them that'd make life simples. Or a Soundbar with 3.5mm audio sockets I guess.

Nothings ever straight forward.

Tried to play the game after a long break. Result: the whole game & pc freezes (forced shut down required, doesn't react to CTRL-ALT-DEL), crashes in the middle of the game, or finds a game alright but instead of starting it closes down the whole game. If "repair the game" doesn't help, I'll have to uninstall it for good.

EDIT: didn't have to uninstall after all, runs now well. And the new (?) Breakthrough 64 Solo game mode seems to suit me well.

I will try it later to see how the performance is. I do not think they worked on that if I read the patchnotes

Played 1 round on the new map last night - first time in BF for a few months tbh. Died shit loads, got 5 kills. On the positive side, theres indoor stuff and it looks a good map as long as you know your way around I think. Massive series of unlocks at the end.

The new map is actually good, gameplay is also much better than it was (that was already the case before this update).
But only one map and 2 new weapons. I expected more tbh.

Agreed - one map. Each BF game is supposed to be a development improvement of the previous one. One map for a season isn't going to hack it no matter how good it is. People will begin/continue to leave.
