Change the install location in origin to your SSD and copy your files over, tell origin to download BF4 again and it will find the game already on your SSD and it should verify the game files and let it run

 

@SAV1OUR, it also loats in like 10 seconds off an SSD :P I normally get in before anybody else so I can nick the little bird :3

Yeah true, its great to get in early and get your rifle set up somewhere sneaky :)

 

I love playing with a supressed SRR when there is no kill cam :) you can just sit there for like an hour popping people and they are like "where the fuck is this sniper"

 

Although my usual play style is quite aggressive, pistols in the face my speciality.
