[QUOTE="ExESGO"][QUOTE="TerrorRizzing"]

Im expecting a multiplat akin to a valve multiplat. It will be on console, but the true experience
will be pc.

Lets hope DICE does that.




Yeah how come Valve is the only dev that knows how to make the pc version of their multiplats
actually FEEL like pc games. Look at all the consolized recent pc games gone multiplat that
feel awkward and consolized both control and design wise. Fear 2, Far Cry 2, BC2, probably
Crysis 2 (the videos show that it is) I could go on.


Meanwhile the Half Life episodes and the rest of orange box feel great on pc and take full
advantage of pc within the limitations of source engine. And they're multiplats.

. Valve doesn't do multiplatform games, that's why, because in almost all cases
multiplatform means console port, Valve does PC games that get ported to consoles.

they all do the same thing, they make a game on two or three platforms at once. Usually a true port is done by a different dev team in my eyes. I dont even feel like bc2 is a port, even without mod support. What you guys are asking for would mean bc2 on pc would be an entire different game. We already got more players at once and a smoother overall play experience on pc, give us mods and we can take care of the rest in ut2k4 fashion

mag was a failed idea from the start, there is no way a game like that can work with console players lol.

BF2 2005 game has bigger map than BC2 2010 ???At the end BC2 was the console game but ported very well on PC

But BF3 must/should be bigger than BF2 imo

Game like that could work on the consoles, just needs to be more interesting.

If MAG sold on PCs, do you think it would do much better?

It won't. As I've said, the game is utter chaos and mindless running.

[QUOTE="TerrorRizzing"][QUOTE="Mystic-G"] Are the high settings justifiable visually to the performance you get? Compared to say... medium or medium-low?

This is also not to mention that a true BF3 would be much larger in scale so it would most likely be even more demanding.

Mystic-G
[QUOTE="Mystic-G"]

The poor performance of the Frostbite engine is what worries me most. Let's say BF3 will be a true sequel on PC. Can you imagine the monster requirements?

Unless there's a overhaul on the engine for PC, I can only assume it'll eat up and spit out gaming PCs like nothing.

TerrorRizzing
seems to me the frostbite engine is quite scalable and can run even on a low end gaming pc just fine. You wont see me complaining about them supporting high end gaming machines either. Some pc gamers have some disease where every game has to be max settings and 60 fps, if it isnt then its called an unoptimized mess... scalable or not.

BC2 says you're wrong.

Bad Company was a console-first game but its sequel came out for the PC just because DICE felt generous. I don't think they're a PC developer anymore, just a money-grubbing developer who wants to maximize profit over quality.

Most of games are console games but they still come to PC and Dice is not generous.

If it wasn't for BC2, most of us would be stuck still playing a game from 2005.

Atleast their trying to pull in the PC community with BC2. They are always updating and we get DLC for free. BC2 is still a great game.

Also, I thought I read a while ago that BF3 was supposed to be on the Frostbite 2 engine?

Well then pretty much every game nowadays has missing content. But as I said, its free for the PC as a patch. i wish everyone would quit complaining about it not being on PC first. I mean who ever actually believed that should know better. Just accept the fact we actually have no idea what the game entales and if you ahve such gripes about waht should be included, go post it on the DICE forums. Let them know. Atleast be happy BF3 is coming to PC. I bet most of the people complaining in here play BC2 also

Have to agree, they're releasing the same maps in different modes, this should've been there from the beginning.

Atleast we will have Dx11, like in BC2. But I agree, we should have had the same maps with different modes already. I want to play onslaught and that has yet to come if it even is :(

Real Battlefield games have 64 players on a server. Consoles can only do like 24 players at a time.

This game is just going to be a joke, and a slap in the face. It's not a real Battlefield 3. There's no way it could be. How could they make the maps work for 24 players on consoles, and 64 on PC? They can't.

Well from what I know they confirmed that it's also gonna be released, but...it took them a month to release a patch that was supposed to be released in "a few days", something without a release date almost sounds like no release whatsoever. If they'll release it, I'll probably play some more with my friends but for now I lost interest, I couldn't play for 15 minutes a few days ago, was too boring, can't even find games to play :P these past days all I've played are flash games, can't believe how amazing some of them are.

If BF3 comes out with only 24 or 32 players max then I think I'll call it Battlefail 3. Just wait for Respawn or some other game developer to come up with something that'll take down both DICE (we want moar money) and Infinity (we always want more money too!).
