It will only use 100 if its an intense moment unless your saying bit can only ever get to 50% usage and your frame rate is bad

What's wrong with that?

because most games including BF4 are only designed to use 4 threads. you should have just got an AMD quad core or an intel quad core if all you do is game.

It's alright.Everything is right,no need to panic.This only means,you are not experiencing CPU bottleneck whatsoever.
That is one good CPU which has lot of potential,alas no applications utilize that through and through.And the only thing this CPU won't handle as good as intel in in light threaded workloads.But there again it was a decision made by AMD!there you go.
Absolutely no worries,unless too much heat is output from that chip.

I've been watching my CPU usage in that game now for several minutes while i'm playing, and I bounce around between 25-80% (50% often enough) but I have no issues averaging around 60 FPS.

You can't force it to waste more CPU power when it doesn't need to. That won't do any good. Since the FX-8350 has more cores, the workload is more spread out so no one CPU core is using 100%. One core may periodically be doing more work, but usually only temporarily. If you were playing BF4 in two cores, you will see closer to 100% CPU usage.

There's nothing wrong in your scenario.

Yes! basically games (modern) utilises more than 1 core,the process of bundling frames and loading all those textures is a process which are optimized single-threaded.The CPU that works a lot in a single clock is benefited by it!
The next step,GPU handles those bundles,processes,renders it and all those eye candy effects are gloomered in to present you the magnificient gameplay on your monitor!
