i expect BF4 will most likely be optimized for AMD since the next Gen consoles will be AMD based GPU wise. That is if they plan to release on consoles at all.

How could you possibly not release on consoles in this day and age? Especially being EA and DICE. I don't care how and why , I just want BF4 to smash the already great game that BF3 is.

Me and my son where talking last night about how good BFBC2 and BF3 were and how a little bit of both would be sweet. I'd love to bring down the entire house on a squad. I liked the spotting better on BFBC2 too. Go back and play some BFBC2 and you realize what a blast it was too. I rarely use prone so even if they left that out I'd be fine.

How about just some bug fixes and an SDK? I'd be fine with that.

Of course they will. How else will they get away with such low standards?

Which means there's probably another 4GB download coming next week. Just like last time.

Wonder what the final size of a BF3 Premium install will be by the
time all is said and done? May be a record

I, for one, can't believe you put so much time and effort into the vanilla. A new map once and awhile is nice, no?

Exactly what I was thinking. On that note yes Premium is well worth it especially if you play it enough to get to level 100

So does Brandon, he was the originator of the phenomenon. Now he just trolls on ARMA while I tinker in Terraria.

Hey I am going to give my son my second gamer after we upgrade the processor to an E6850 and the card to a 7770 HD and double the ram. How do you think it will do for BF3 ? He doesn't care about maxing the resolution. He just wants a gaming computer. He is tired of Xbox. It is in my specs, number 3 gamer.

Itll do farely well. I think that E8650 is probably the weakest link I would think.

Honestly, it should be just fine, even at 1920x1080, just on lower settings. But lets be honest here, just like I told a friend who built a PC and has been playing BF3 exclusively on console since launch before that, BF3 on low settings on PC will be about what he is use to. In fact it might even looks slightly better, and I'm betting that setup will be able to do a bit better than all low settings, so he shouldn't mind it one bit. And even then, out of all the PC games out there, BC2 nor BF3 don't look all that bad on lower settings.

I actually gave him my quad core gamer and I'm just gonna rebuild that 3rd machine and run the 7770 hd. That Motherboard will
take a Intel Core 2 Quad so I'll build off that. It's just a back up any way. Fucking Orhan is pissing me off again stalking me.
I swear I had him dead to rights stabbing him the other night and he turned around and got me. WTF !
