thank you

[Maxdoggy]

(I just made this an official BF3 thread)


I also just went out and pre-ordered it at GameStop for the free upgrade to the Limited Edition (which is a promotion that ends really soon).

This game'll be awesome.

[LocoCrazy]

[Vestige]

[AftershocK]

The trailers released before E3 were all gameplay sequences.

[d3ad1te]

There's multiplayer gameplay of the map operation metro.

[Hazy]

Interested in the original campaign vid aired earlier, actually. I usually like to keep multiplayer revelations a secret ntil I get behind the controller. Keeps things fresh.

[Fuzzy]

When this comes out people will be saying, "Whats Call Of Duty?"

[Hazy]

Meh, Call of Duty will always have it's lime light. It's one of those titles Microsoft will want to milk into never-ending time loops due to the traffic it draws. It could be the worst game in the world, but throw "Call of Duty" in the title and all of a sudden you draw interest in the title.

As for Battlefield's chances of overunning CoD? Well that would have to wait until I see more of what MW3 has to offer. I like to see both sides of a story before I make my decisions.

[AftershocK]

sweet.

New stuff about both CoD and BF3 has been posted in the @GamerDirt (www.twitter.com/GamerDirt) Twitter feed on the home page (www.fcwars.net/forums).

I'm hearin rumors that you can actually go prone in the game :) I hope this is true because sniping in the game will make it so much more fun to play.

not much of a rumor when theyve shown it in their gameplay videos lol

[Mi Boys Dinner]

I'll be preordering this on the next Friday.

[LocoCrazy]

Here's a fun fact, Robin Williams (my favorite comedian) plays Battlefield 2 as a medic and sniper.

[William 043 SII]

I'll be preordering this on the next Friday.

preordered it last month I do believe, cant wait and I havent seen any gameplay in a while prob gonna do that tommorrow and check it out.

[Sgt Catastrophe]

Can't wait for this game to come out! The Frostbite 2 engine looks awesome!

[bazongaman502]

all lies... this isnt gameplay... they just straped a camera on a US Army soldire and told him to act like it isnt there

[d3ad1te]

Hahah already pre-ordered for PC!

[Maxdoggy]

Hahah already pre-ordered for PC!

[bazongaman502]

[Maxdoggy]

There's gameplay all over the internet. Mostly from Operation Metro...Google it!

quit lying to me!!! they just strapped a camera on a US Army soldire and told him to go have fun...

[VerbotenDonkey]

There are lots of gameplay for the Alpha out. It looks really good. 64 player battles should be fun.

[Acid]

Damn. Look at the recommended requirements for the PC version.
Recommended:
- Quad-core Intel or AMD, 4GB RAM
- DirectX 11 compatible Nvidia (GTX 460) or ATI (HD 6850) video card
- 15 GB disk space for disc version and 10 GB for digital version
- Windows 7 64-bit

I know, I have an Nvidia 4000

Really good for editing, has direct x11 support.

It runs BFBC2 at high graphics perfectly... We'll see, Dice is always good at optimizing their shit.

Shit yeah I meant to edit that into my post lol.

Do you think my ATI Radeon HD 5670 could possibly run BF3 on higher(or above medium?). I can run Crysis 2 on Max settings if that's saying anything.

[Sgt Catastrophe]

I know this is the xbox thread but I had an idea about this hype over Battlefield 3 being on Either Games for Windows LIVE or Steam or just Neither. I'm thinking, why not just realease three different pc versions. One made for Games for Windows LIVE, or Steam, or just the original servers. Its a funky idea but it could possibly put this battle to rest. I mean, I would like to atleast sign into the Games for Windows LIVE version (Even though there won't be one) and get achievements and stuff. But you know? Its just a thought.

[Blackhawk570]

Because that would split up the PC population and you have less people on each server.

@Acid yeah that should be able to run BF3

[Acid]

Well I know it can run it. I'm just wondering if it will be able to on medium or higher settings.

[Sgt Catastrophe]

Oh I see now, but I have another thought. What if they all used the same server. Plus, I am want to get an AMD Phenom II X4 Quad Core Processor "Socket AM3" for my PC eventually. And I'm thinking about upgrading my Video Card, I currently have an integrated HD 4250 Graphics card on the motherboard. This is the Card I'm thinkin about getting, http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7297819&CatId=3669

[Blackhawk570]

I don't think that will run certain games well. Just by looking at the price alone.

[Sgt Catastrophe]

You haven't read the reviews...Its feature is being the Nvidia GeForce GT 430. There are gameplay videos on youtube using this card, even with crysis.

[ShenmueZero v2]

Trust me that card is terrible. You would be lucky if you could run wow on medium. Try this card. Its not great but for the price you cant do better.

Also try this website. It compares the performence of most cards out there. It helped me choose my card.

[Blackhawk570]

The GeForce GT 430 value is gonna die for future gaming. I built my pc in December for the future of gaming. I got a 6 core processor and one of the top of line video cards at the time which is an ATI Radeon HD 5850

[ShenmueZero v2]

This is my setup. I will be upgrading my cpu and gpu at the beginning of next year.

Switch to an AMD cpu much better price wise and performance and u might as well go 8 gb of ram if u have 64 bit windows 7

the new i series of intel are way better price for the preformance.

the i5 2500k out preforms the AMD 6 core by miles and is like $20 more or something like that.

the i5 2500k can overclock easily to 4.0 ghz and some people can even get a 4.5ghz stable overclock on air. the K in 2500k means the multiplier is unlocked and should be overclocked.

http://www.cpubenchmark.net/common_cpus.html

the i5 2500k in this benchmark is only at 3.3 ghz if it was overclocked it would be almost twice as powerful as the amd x6 for about $45 more, also there are only a handful of games that utilize a quadcore let alone a hexacore

also gHz means nothing its all about the computing power which is represented in benchmarks.

currently AMD is far behind intel but the new buldozer line of processors from AMD should put them back on the same lvl as intels chips.
