Screens from the tank gameplay: http://battlefieldo.com/?p=1014

I could make some GIFs, too. I know the last shot isn't a direct grab, but goddamn, that reminds me of Crysis.

 

[Darkman M]

what vid is that from?

 

[CrookedRain]

Just watched the 8 minute tank video. Absolutely fucking ridiculous. Frostbite 2 seems unmatched.

 

[Wthermans]

SP Tank gameplay video.

The effects that came from the jets/a-10s dropping ordnance was ridiculous.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

that BRRRRT is the sound of their Vulcan.

All the sounds, all the chatter, all the models are spot on authentic/realistic.

 

[Atrus]

That tank video was insane. INSANE!

 

[RoboPlato]

I just saw the multiplayer video. The scene with the subway getting torn up look insanely good. I can't believe that destruction was real time. It looked better than most scripted events.

 

[chuckddd]

Can't wait!

 

[Leucrota]

Buy'n it.
Sold.
Here's my money.

 

[Spl1nter]

The 8 minute tank gameplay is simply spectacular

Can an i5 2500k and a 6970 run this game nicely?

ANNND should I get a 6970 or another gpu?

If you already have one, you should wait and try out the open beta come September and then decide whether you want to crossfire.

 

[Spat_triate]

oh ma gaud!!

I'm going to empty my savings to build the greatest PC known to man, then I will bask (again) in the glory of PC gaming.

I don't! I'm thinking of getting those when I upgrade my rig!

Really? Will the fastest processor out now and the top end AMD card on the market (with 2GB of RAM) run this game nicely?

I'm sure you know the answer the rhetorical question!

You'll be fine, with DX11 multi-core support, the dynamic physics shouldn't be a problem.

.
how was that multiplayer? seriously. I'm in love.
can't wait to see some 360 footage though. gonna be playing this with friends, so I'm stuck with the Xbox version indefinitely.

 

[speedpop]

The king has returned.

 

[ColonialRaptor]

Fucking AMAZING.

Well the game will come out only at the end of the year, and I heard people saying it wasn't running smoothly on a GTX580, that's why I asked. But thanks for the answer.

 

[Jim E. Rossler]

I was amazed in the tank vid at 6;20 when he shot at a guy in an MG nest and the guy DUCKED instead of standing there until killed!

 

[Jtrizzy]

Where did you hear that? All of the footage we've seen has been running on a single 580 from my understanding,

I don't know anything about PC gaming really, so I have a quick question. Would an iMac 3.4 i7 with a 6970m 2gb be able to run this better than console versions. I'm trying to transition over to the master race (I know it's am iMac, I'm taking baby step)

I'm sure that's more than enough

I'm going to say yes.

Doesn't take much for a modern PC with a decent graphics card to best console versions of the same game nowadays.

 

[Deadbeat]

When will the direct footage be available?

 

[woober]

Direct footage has been linked in posts scattered above.

 

[Jim E. Rossler]

Battlefield is processor intensive, so a gtx580 but only a dual core 2.5 CPU will limit your framerate

 

[witness]

Game of the show.

 

[aperman]

If you're going to buy a Mac, just get a copy of Windows via Bootcamp.

My 8-Core Mac Pro w/ 16GB of RAM is ready.

My ATI 4870, however, is not. Upgrade time!

 

[Sutton Dagger]

:\ Will it even be for apples?

Thanks for the info guys. I'll be running it via Windows 7 (bootcamp).

 

[Smokey]

Yep.

The Core i5/i7 2500k/2600k will be a perfect match for this game. Easily overclockable (I'm running my i7 2600k @ 4.5ghz with a push of a button on ASUS mobo software) and when you get in the 4.2ghz+ range you really aren't being CPU limited anymore in games.

BF3 > life

 

[nib95]

Sorry but nothing comes close to this visually....not even close. SOLD before I could even type Sold.

 

[Special J]

did you guys notice how during the live demo the npc loading the tank rounds was bugging.

 

[lazybones18]

Yeah, I did notice the slowdown

 

[BrainZEROX]

OK. I could update my old PC for that game. I'll wait for the specs needed to make it run like it does in this tank assault video though. Amazing experience...

 

[Shawsie64]

Phenomenal!!!!
