im unable to find the link..
They said that the they tried 128 on the PC, but the most fun was 64 (32vs32) so its doubtful they will add 128!, they also said its possible to make 256 Players (128vs128) for the PC, Talk about difference from console! :)

EA won't let Crytek do that. The reason Crysis 2 had problems was because EA had a tight release date on Crytek and didn't give them enough time. They wanted Crysis 2 to be their Quarter 1, specifically March 2011, financial sales. And that's it. For the rest of the year, EA has OTHER GAMES to get them money. They wouldn't want to let Crysis 2 help take away attention from Battlefield 3 considering that's their "KILL CALL OF DUTY" weapon (metaphorically speaking of course). lol

I knew it some one will say this. Opps my fault.Well it is 32 vs 32 on pc and i guess its 16 vs 16 for consoles.But isn't that great? There will be hell of wars with 64 player support. :D

12v12 was cool, it worked on BC2, but 32v32 is going to be hell in a hand basket, death everywhere! Just like on the battlefield...........

I love the people who say Battlefield 3 will be the ender of all games, you don't know this.

You've seen limited gameplay from trailers that they hand pick, don't get me wrong the game looks great and i'm hyped for it but don't put all your faith in that one game.

because if its anything like bf2, then its instant-win. Even if they just made bf2 with a new engine + textures, it would still be amazing.

At the end of the day, nobody really cares about bf3 SP. its the MP that makes the game great. the fact that they are making a co-op SP campaign, is bonus, and makes it more enjoyable than any other shooter FPS.

It might not be right to put all faith in bf3, but battlefield seems to be our last hope in the near future. From what we have heard from the devs, they are heading along the right path.

Lol if it's anything like bf2? I'm sure people were thinking the same about this game in regards to crysis 1 *facepalm*

And Crysis 1 scaled terribly. Like seriously...going from a crappy HD 4830 to a GTX 260 Max OC you only gain 8 FPS in benchamrks. (22 to 30 FPS). Why the heck would someone spend (at the time) so much more on a card that will make a game playable on slightly less AA on a 4830 playable on a 260 with 4xAA?


That's pretty good scaling actually, the hd4830 was about 20% slower than a gtx260 at stock.

What? No? The GTX 260 performs slightly better than the Radeon 4870. It's about twice as fast as the 4830.

Nope: http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/pc4830/11.htm, the trend is pretty consistant.

The hd4830,4850,5870 and gtx260 were in a pretty tight pack performance wise. The hd4670 was about half as powerful as the hd4830.

The hd4830 was regarded as a very very good card (great value and great performance).

It really depends on the game. Here the GTX 260 raqes the 4830.

How old are you? MW3 hasn't even been announced...

And yes, i'm doubtful of BF3 too, simply because DICE will refuse to release an SDK, which means no community made mods...one of the main things that made BF2 great in the first place...

Wow, your in the dark, we all know bf3 has been announced, and if you haven't noticed a CoD game comes out every year, and yes it has been announced, whether or not you've heard is your problem, it was either pigs in space, or Mw3, i think they went for the Third, and by the way, i'm 19

What? When did i say BF3 hadn't been announced? I know its been announced, i also know they consider some of the best modding minds to be too weak for Frostbite X (whatever version it is) and on that basis are refusing a SDK...which is complete horse ****. They just don't want to see community based mods being better than their own efforts.

Though i do concede i was quick on the trigger for my assertion that MW3 hadn't been announced, that is my fault entirely and i apologise for it...while i don't believe this actually means anything to you (or anyone else for that matter), but i think it does.

Sryy bro, didn't mean to be a jerk, just reminding you that Mw3 had been announced, didn't mean to include Bf3 into the discussion

MW3 has been announced huh? Any mention by them about their plans for dedicated servers? I'm sure thats at the top of most people's list of questions. If you remember, when Black Ops was announced, it didn't take them long to also announce that dedicated servers would be supported.

yeah i agree ive been waiting for the bf3 for awhile and im expecting something great in return for this epic wait but again it will probably be a fail to start server issues same **** until its patched but i have to say it really looks like bf2 but with a new engine that to me would be fine but im also wanting that great MP feel that bf2 has great squad work the whole nine yards but if it falls short i might just have to stick with the golden oldies lol but for now CRYISIS 2 FTW

Anyone think they'll fix textures, and not just slap on Dx11?
