Battlefield Megathread

Yes I know.

Do you realize how much MORE powerful TWO 580's are let alone 1 then a 560?  If that's required to play this game on ultra then high must look terrible.


That same developer also goes on to say things like they were playing it with only 1 580 on ultra  at 60+ FPS.

Ultra looks MUCH better than High. High looks very good, I'm guessing better than BF:BC2, but Ultra looks beautiful.

DICE Community manager says it requires 2 580s, and also that dev says about tests with two 580s on 1080p to run on 60FPS. I don't see anything about a single one running at 60FPS.

Ultra does look better then high.

But there's no way that you would ever need two 580's for any game.

A single 580 is nearly two times as powerful as a 560.

Just think logically, why would you need two of something that is two times as powerful as the recommended, which is just one setting lower, to play this game maxed?

Think about this:

The game's graphics are revolutionary, beauty at a max, much better than Crysis and all its graphics mods.

You could run it with one, but at 1080p to get 60 FPS, I would not think so.

I don't think I can get through your thick skull so I'm going to leave it at this.

You can run it with one 580 on ultra maxed.

I plan on running it with my 560 TI on ultra and if it lags I'll add one of my older cards.

Login with your E--

Oh wait.

I'll be playing it at 60 FPS then on Ultra. :D

460 SLI ftw.

I guess it would work.

[TeslaCoil]

BTW. None of you can play Ultra OTHER than Ethan because Battlefield 3 requires at least two GTX 580s in SLI for Ultra to be playable.

I got about one GTX 580 (Two 460s in SLI is ~ one 580)

ujelly?

I can play Ultra with decent FPS, I not jelly.

[LeetZero]

DAMNIT. I'm saying two GTX 580s in SLI are required for ULTRA. Meaning MAX. Not High.

High can easily run with a 560 Ti/ 580. I'm going to be running at High hopefully at least 60 FPS. :D

i5 2300.

GTX 460 no SLI.

Runs on Ultra smoothly.

I don't see a problem.

BF3 Beta Ultra is not the real BF3 Ultra lol. basically the Ultra in BF3 Beta is the High, maybe medium in the real game. lmao

Then how on earth do you think you know what the release ultra is going to be like?

Developer updates, releases, things the devs say, etc.

Lucky.

[Qwepir]

not lucky
skilled

[HerpaDerp]

BTW Dissolve, the GTX 580 is NOT twice as powerful as a 560 Ti. It's like 20 - 30 percent better.

Apparently it's bad that I'm on anybody's squad.
