I assume he just means it takes a very good setup to run ultra, not that it can literally only be run on cards that have yet to be released

Game with an expected long term lifespan. Makes sense to include graphics beyond what can be handled by all but the beefiest systems.

I fully expect to be able to run the game on max settings with my GTX 680. The game has good graphics but they aren't anything better than what BF3 has.

If Smedley's tweet is taken at face value, I'd say Max will be pushing dual 670 territory. Won't know 'til we get to crank it up.

Does BF3 have 2000 playes on a map? Last I checked it was capped at 64.

Why does everyone have GTX cards? They are not as good as AMD IMO and experiences.

Smart move by them, this will ensure a really ridiculously long lifetime for this game assuming all goes well.

I run arma 2 at max settings with 2000+ ai on the map where you have to render everything in 225km2.. ill handle this at max settings.

LegioX · 2012-07-09, 08:08 PM

my GTX 580 better run this on max.

number of players doesn't all determine how hard a engine is on requirements to run however.

PS2 engine does not have destruction while frostbite does. PS2 engine designed to run alot more players yes.. but none of us know how demanding either is in comparison.. and number of players alone won't tell the whole story honestly.

So far to date frostbite 2.0 engine is one of the most demanding on the market to run.. and that's why it runs like crap for most... and also sucks up a ton of bandwidth
