Battlefield 4 official discussion/thread. [PS4,XO,PS3,X360]

I got BF3 because a whole roomful of GAF chatters sold it to me. XD

I still can't get used to it. Will probably have another go with BF4 when I run into those Gaffers again.

Paracel Storm map trailer showing multiplayer action for up to 64 players. The video is from the Xbox channel, but I don't know which system is running the graphics, it could be the PS4 or the PC, too.

So there's a PS4 version at gamescon.
Have we seen the console version of BF4 before?

Just played Battlefield 4 on PS4 - most impressive. It's everything you love about Battlefield but at 60 frames and on DualShock 4

Thats BIG news !

Everything we have seen till now is running on some uber PC and I am dying to see somewhere how it tanslates to the ps4. Wish we get some footage.

It could still mean it's a PC version with a PS4 controller connected to it tho.

Well, can't say about that? Aren't the PS4s visible at the booths? and who knows whether he saw the same visual quality or how much lesser fidelity.

It’s a good day to be a huge explosion or collapsing wind turbine, as its been confirmed that Battlefield 4 will run at 60fps on next-gen consoles.

Battlefield 4 is out, at 60fps, on PS4 and Xbox One at launch. It’ll also be available on PS3 and Xbox 360, though presumably at a lower frame rate. And, of course, it’ll look fantastic on PC too.

Great

I don't get it, why are people going gaga over BF4 60fps on consoles? Without stating the resolution and graphics setting or some context it's no more than saying ps3 can run Crysis3 and we know how god awful that version is.
If BF4 was running 60fps at 1080p with near maximum setting on PS4 then that would be something to clap at.

Everyone knows war is ugly, but have no real connection or idea about how much ugly. I dont like the conditioning they are promoting willingly or unwillingly through these games.

Rewriting a History is ugly too.I see the tendency and It's a bad thing

Relic or Russia: Who’s Rewriting History in Company of Heroes 2?

Because people want 60fps?

I'll take tradeoffs in resolution and other graphical "settings" to get 60fps for an online shooter. Plus, the game looks really nice from what we've seen so far, so I have no complaints. The checkbox war can be fought by people interested in lesser gameplay.

It's not really about the check box war my friend, I'm sure many people would want native resolution framebuffer to their FullHD TVs, especially the bigger sets. 720p is simply too low res now to see nextgen texture details, and way too blurry for a 50"+ TV. I'm betting BF4 on ps4 graphically would almost look the same as BF3 on PS3 if 720p is final, save for some slightly better effects here and there.

Have you seen Battlefield 3 on PS360 lately?

We haven't seen the console version at all till now.

I play bf3 on ps3 on a daily routine and the 720p resolution alone kills a ton of immersion for me.

There is absolutely no way that at 720p/60Hz, the PS4 version of BF4 will look similar to BF3 on PS3. Maybe you don't like 720p, and I can understand that, but BF4 on next-gen is going to be more than a framerate/resolution bump. I'm also not convinced it's going to be 720p. We'll see.

 

[RenegadeRocks]

off screen and zoomed in too much, but still its unedited gameplay.

Some more, better quality:

Wow, what a bombshell

I'm inclined to disbelieve this pending further confirmation, but that's kind of shockingly disappointing if true.

The silence from Dice all this time is your confirmation mate. But yes, very disappointing indeed.

Wonder how the PS360 versions will turn out. XD
