Same old...

LoL it will never be perfect. They said as much in interviews. I swear all crying I hear about netcode deal with it not like it isn't effecting everyone. In bf4 I wasn't dying around corners and that was my biggest issue with 3.

The LAW can as can the returning Javelin. Unknown if the SRAW/AT4 can or if it's just going to be wire guided like it was in BF2/BC2.

The netcode was TOTALLY re-worked for BF4. It's not even the same code used in BF3.

Agreed, the only issue I ever had with netcode was when going around a corner, and so I died... who gives a shit. I turn network smoothing completely off in BF3 and BF4 and I've never had a serious issue.

I only played BF3 on TPG servers,you might try to do that on European servers with a ping of 200 see how would you like it.

High ping is not a problem for the netcode to fix. Most games offer a degraded experience the higher your ping is. Trying to compensate too much for high ping ends up lessening the experience for those who have a good ping. BF3, in my experience, is better than its predecessors as far as handling higher pings.
