While most people act like Crytek doesn't have any credibility any more, I have to disagree on one point. Crytek said that Crysis 3 would be pc centered, and would push pc. They definitely delivered in this area. On a maxed out pc, the game's visuals are unbelievable.

With that said, I feel like Crytek missed the mark in other area's. The game's length was decent, but it felt incomplete. The first half of the game was great. But from the massive dune buggy level on, it seemed like Crytek lost their footing, the 6th level was great though, so it wasn't all bad.

Anyways though, the pc will start ahead of consoles this gen, and from there it will continue to get better. So what he is saying is right. Still, Crytek talks to much for their own good.

This really is going to be this gen's Cell isn't it..

There is nothing special about GDDR5. It is used for graphics cards. For example, the Nvidia Titan has 6 gb's of GDDR5. Before you get too excited about PS4 having 8 gb's, you should know that it is also used for the Cpu, which is pretty unconventional, but still isn't really special. The GDDR5 covers the whole PS4, while a pc has GDDR5 for the graphics card, and usually 8 gb's of DDR3 ram.

I was just about to buy it on GMG and a box came up that was supposedly from my bank asking for my SS# 

 

Is this site legit ? I figured that my brand new card may not be verified yet, so I tried another card, and it asked for my bank password...

 

Is this a scam or what ?

[QUOTE="SAGE_OF_FIRE"][QUOTE="mitu123"]Needed more Bad Company gang and humor.

So it needed the same garbage single player but with annoying characters?

It needs no SP at all.

SP is always a incredible visual showcase. Aside from that, it's pretty fun the first time through. So personally, I hope they keep it, and I'm sure they will.

I enjoy the lite version Kozzy gave me, some excellent tweaks and fixes.  The weather could use some work, or unless it's just the map...bit too blue IMO.  Quite good for an alpha, color me impressed

wis3boi

At release, there will be a full weather system

 

This is apparently what you can expect, talk about a gorgeous sky

I am liking it. I also hear that it is supposed to improve visually quite a bit before release. For example, it is still missing the weather effects.

In other news, GDDR5 can now cure cancer, outlift mariusz pudzianowski, and create a boy band that doesn't suck...

[QUOTE="DragonfireXZ95"][QUOTE="killzowned24"] Bad Company was easily the best they did last gen,BF3 is complete crap compared.killzowned24
Bad Company 2 had consolized controls on the PC. BF3 plays more like a PC game, which I like.

BF3 had downgraded destruction and crappy maps.In Bad Company you could level the whole map,BF3 is a shadow of what could be done.

Bad Company 2's levels didn't have the level of detail that BF3 has. The enviroments in BF3 are bigger and more diverse, so it's harder to keep the same level of destruction.

[QUOTE="seanmcloughlin"]

Nice one. The DICE guys said they weren't gonna reveal the full boxart because someone else was gonna leak it anyway. Seems like it was true. Not sure what I make of the dude though, obviously he's important cos he actually has a face and not some helmet or anything like that. Probably their lame attempts at SP again

I kind of liked BF3's SP *runs for cover*

 

It seems that I am the first to notice a big spoiler in this picture.

 

The picture towards the middle at the top, is a picture of Shanghai, with the under construction Shanghai tower, which will be completed in 2014

Nice one dude

I designed part of Shanghai in CE3 a while back, aside from that, I am working towards a degree in engineering with a emphasis in architecture, so I know most major skylines pretty well.

Back on topic: loved BF3, the game is probably the best looking game to date next to Crysis 3, and the gameplay is fantastic. So hopefully BF4 is just as good.

 

While some of these complaints are warranted, designing a game isn't easy. Sometimes you will make a completely different game, but a city setting suddenly makes it a crysis 2 or MW3 clone. Dice is a good dev, but EA seems to be holding them back. EA is probably the reason we didn't get to mod BF3
