There is a beta driver released for Nvidia which solves the lag issue's and makes the game a darn sight more playable http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/nvidia-geforce-331-40-beta-drivers-released
Before updating the game was totally unplayable for me and everyone else i know running an Nvidia card.

The game itself is a massive improvement over BF3, Menu's, spawn system and sound all much better. Infact its looking like the game BF3 should have been.
It should be very good unless the balls it up somehow.

Was just playing it, was getting crazy bad fps, only getting 20-30 with a Titan. All soft core server's so there's no fun in that.

I agree it is a big improvement over BF3 and thanks (ganji) for telling us about the beta drivers I'll give that a try.

You're welcome mate.
+1 for the sound in BF3 being really nice but it's been improved a lot in 4, Everything sounds more beefy and the sound of the RPG's firing is wicked.
EA did a server restart lastnight which turned most of the servers into a lag fest eventhough i had a ping of 12, We ended up switching froma Uk server to a Canadian one with a ping of 103 but got a lot smoother gameplay..

Yeah, I tried, but I got this error message:

I own a G75VW so I talked to ASUS support and they said it's not advised to use the NVIDIA.com driver, but ASUS's is only v311 (way behind Nvidia's updates).

I really hope ASUS gets the new drivers released.
