We do have to build and continue to maintain our OpenGL and DirectX rendering path but we really try to avoid limiting ourselves to what we can do in those APIs. So I think going forward, the main things to drive the design we have in Frostbite and the type of optimisations we will do, will be what we can do with Mantle, and also what we can do with PS4. PS4 also has its own graphics API that’s really quite programmable and really a lot of good control and performance from it, so we can share concepts, methods and various types of hardware level optimisations between those and see where we end up with that, which is quite exciting.

Does anyone know if BF4 allows small scale MP battles in SP levels? It would be a shame if all of those levels in SP cannot be used for MP.

I haven't played the full SP, but I have seen a lot of the SP areas from the videos in thr MP maps. For example, the broken ship is Point E in Paracel Storm map.
And, yes, BF4 supports small MP matches very well in small maps. All maps have smaller variations for smaller modes like DOM and TDM.

BTW< Paracel Stomr looks so damn real even on the ps3, had a wonderful TDM on int last night. Enemies were hiding in bunches in the buildings. Brought down all the walls of the buildings :D and picked them up like chickens !

Have the console versions of BF4 experienced any of the instability issues the PC version has?

That was the reason I went for the console version first. Due to stricter regulations on this side, DICE tends to make sure it runs well on consoles on launch while PC gets fixed months later. I have had only one freeze since launch in MP> It works flawlessly.
SP is full of bugs, though.

:yep2: you won't regret it ! This is da MP game, true next gen gameplay , 64 players , all vehicles, jets, choppers and destruction with super fun game modes ! Conquest rules everything, RUsh for people who have plans to execute! Battlefield moments keep happening all the time and this time we will actually be able to easily record them and share instead of just telling stories to friends and mates ! The game is a sight to behold when all hell breaks loose in MP!

Yeah looks like repi's team is serious about pushing the tech envelope on PS4, I will probably get it and run behind the Gaffers. :D

Keep dropping ammo for them and shoot rockets at vehicles from behind.....there's a role for every soldier in BF :cool: ! Thenews about Frostbite pushing PS4 is very encouraging. Means Dragon Age too will run great on the ps4 and almost everything from EA.
 
Game is just so smooth even on theps3, jealous of you guys jumping onto the ps4 versions soon.

One advice from me: The new controls are fantastic : Give them time ! Don't switch to "Veteran" controls. THe new ones are so much more intuitive and easier than the old ones. Just give them a day or tow. Especially the chopper controls are fantastic now. Just like flying a remote controlled chopper.

I heard people are experiencing server problems at launch. Will probably wait a week for things to settle down.
 
Extreme server issues plus game stability problems. I have had the game crash 4 times today plus am completely unable to play conquest mode.
 
The new Operation Metro map running on Xbox One. He literally says that he is really impressed with the graphics of next gen consoles, the Xbox One and PS4.

Yup, I noticed the same thing although sometimes not only when looking around only, but happening in front of the character.

I remember this map from BF3 on the Xbox 360 and the technical improvements are absolutely gigantic.

Caspian Border looks familiar, although I don't see a huge improvement. I noticed that trees go down, I don't remember that happening on the 360. Even so, I have only spent like 28 hours playing BF3 online.

I tried but I couldn't tell the version either.

I remember playing this map and swimming over to that little "island" and then started sniping players from there.:LOL:

The new progressive fire is really cool. The added destructible stuff are a nice addition.
 
Resist if u can, I have to get this :



Gulf of Oman is one of my all time favourites. But I really wish they had brought back Bandar Desert, fights in that map were phenomenal !
