BF4 multi-monitor issues. Anyone else get these?

AbramSat Nov 30, 2013 6:09 pm

So far the support for multiple displays is far better than BF3 was upon launch - bf3 had many annoying issues that took over a year to completely resolve. But Ive noticed a couple problems. One minor, one not so minor.

The minor one is that i get nothing but a dot for a crosshair when I try to pull up the binocualrs in the Campaign. I get the dot, and the Zoom tip. Nothign else happens.

The larger problem is in MP. When i pull up the commo-rose (whatever it's called) my cursor pops up at the very top-left of my left display, so I have to pull it alll the way to the commands to use them. On single display, it pops up the centree, a it should.

Also, am I the only one who gets better framerates than bf3? I have most stuff at Ultra or High (no AA) and I still get over 40fps most of the time. It'll be nice to get another 7970 to be able to crank everything up

*cough* Three6*cough*


And to those with a 4th display, I've jsut discoverd that it's very easy to get the battlemap to fun on your extra monitor. I shall have to get around to mounting it over my centre display this week. ..though I get a crash when i alt-tab with 4 display running the game Sad

I don't think the problem with the binos in the campaign is a multi monitor issue. I have the same problem and only use one display.

Yes, I discovered that after poking through some threads on the BF forums. Misery loves company.

I haven't too many problems with the 3 displays I'm running right now... except the Call of Duty games. Mainly because they are ports from consoles. So they aren't setup for multiple monitor Pc Systems. I have found a piece of program that gets updated occasionally that might help you.

So far I'm running 3 BenQ XL2420T  with 2 Geforce  GTX 670 most games at 120Hz

But so far with BF4 out of the box .. No such problems have arisen.

Had the same bino problem playing campaign, I just worked past it. I finally finished the entire campaign even jumped to the ladder at the dam.

Some guy at EAs' Answer HQ started a topic for the commo-rose problem, so please contribute if you have the problem:  http://answers.ea.com/t5/Battlefield-4/3-Screen-Commo-Rose-problem-on-BF4/m-p/1848951/highlight/true#M47876
 
Heck, even if you don't use 3 screens, say you also have the problem, and maybe we can get it some attention.
