That's one hell of a large performance scale!

gt 660 ?
shouldn't that be gtx660 ?

Simultaneously recommending 3GB VRAM and a HD7870.

Yeah, no kidding, but not surprising either. I wasn't expecting DICE to go so far as alienating the minimum BF3 crowd, especially considering BF4 is on the 360 and PS3 too.

Recommended OS: Win8
1# game with DX11.1?

The only change I see from BF3 is the 4GB requirement. The number of BF3 players with <4GB RAM must be exceedingly small.

 

[Davros]

same as the number who are using 32bit windows

No more support for XP. Yay. A native 64 bit version. Yay. Up to 3 GB of VRAM used (versus 1 GB for BF3). Yay.

Likely not on Steam. Boo. And why I likely won't be playing it. Boo, again.

Yes. Minor correction, BF3 was DX10/11 only and didn't run on XP either.

Whooops that's what I get for listening to the Totalbiscuit content patch video blog on Youtube the night before.

there seems to be so many (also subtle) improvements...e.g. capturing the flag point system - fantastic!

I am super excited and can't wait for October 1st to try out the beta...

I want it noooooooooooooooooooooow!

Because the game still is majorly focused on PS360. Did u check their blog article on game modes? Almost all game-modes are "designed for 24 players", the player count on PS360.

its looking like the right about of BF2 with the right amount of bad company 2. time will tell. It better support the rift!

rift + gcn + mantel + BF4

 

[Bludd]
