Ouch, dual core users are taking the old path of the single core CPU, forced upgrading or terrible performance, even with high-end gpu.

Good thing i put money into an i7 when i did, wont be upgrading for awhile still. I'd be pissed having to build a new system just so BF3 runs.

peowpeow5397d ago

With you on that, nearly opted for a Q6600, Q9850 or E8600. Decided to wait and ended up with an i7 at very nice pricing. Been more than satisfied since :)

It's nice to have some concrete evidence that those idiots who thought BF3 could be run at 500FPS were just that, idiots.

TABSF5398d ago

That 500FPS screenshot was with minimum settings.

Anyway good to see these benchmarks, makes it a lot clearer.
With my RIG I'm possible looking between 65-80FPS on maximum quality settings 1920×1080 DirectX 11 depending on scaling of course.

Fishy Fingers5398d ago (Edited 5398d ago )

Looks like I'll be maxing it pretty much out then :)

RedDead20675398d ago

Nice video. I hope there is a lot of variance in the maps.

Some tighter ones like Oasis, and some massive ones like Heavy Metal.

The main thing is the big maps need more checkpoints/flags. So you don't get bored walking.

Flavor5398d ago

The scale of the maps is going to be the deciding factor on making this game stand out from CoD.

peowpeow5397d ago

Not necessarily the 'deciding' factor, but still a factor. The scale has always been there, confident this game won't differ

Battlefield 3 Cut Missions From Campaign Detailed by Former DICE Dev

Battlefield 3's former Lead Designer has revealed that there were two cut missions from the main campaign

XiNatsuDragnel491d ago

I wish someone can get those EA game leaks to see all the cut content ngl

anast490d ago

Get rid of campaigns, move the game to mobile, and try to compete with warzone. They would save time and money.

Bf4 was fun hope the new bf is just as good.

hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D

Knightofelemia1276d ago

You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.

MadLad1276d ago

We'll see what happens now that Zampella is overlooking the series.
