I didn't drop below 110 FPS while "benchmarking" this on max settings 1080p, usually hung around 130-140. I should have run some actual benchmarks (Frostbite games can dump frame times to a file), mostly I just played with an FPS counter so I could get a feel for what settings my system could/could not handle. I honestly find it hard to believe a 680 would ever drop below 60. Here are my specs:
4770K @ 4.5GHz
R9 290
Strictly Mantle, I didn't bother trying DirectX.
I feel like I should buy the game, it was pretty fun.
UK and meh im building one soon I dont want no cheap part's man.
Me too. If you gave me the money I'd build it for you. Then you also have the price of postage too though which you wouldn't have if it went from a store straight to you.
Very capable of building one myself, and i will when ready still looking at a few things.
Eh but Xbox owners got to play the game way sooner. The game is old news now, so i think its a good tradeoff.
What trade off exactly do you mean?
I wish they also did these face off with a $500 pc, not only powerful ones
My bad man.
Just seen a fair bit of 'PC GAF' bashing lately.

Slightly worse performance than the PS4 but getting to play the game 8 months earlier. I'm sure some of the discrepancy is due to the hardware differences, but the PS4 version also got extra dev time.
You mean 4 months earlier?Slightly worse performance than the PS4 but getting to play the game 8 months earlier. I'm sure some of the discrepancy is due to the hardware differences, but the PS4 version also got extra dev time.

The game launched in April, no?
Ohhhhh I was confusing with the Kinect Sports that launched in April... so 6 months... thanks.Last week of February.
Has anyone posted any videos with a 680 or 770 in action? I've found a few on youtube:

Seem to spend most of the time over 100 FPS.
Here's my post from a while ago when I was playing the game on a GTX 770.
"Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare 4K @ 45-50 FPS on a single GTX 770 2GB"

So how DF are saying what they are about the performance is beyond me.
Why did you ask me then?
There are quite more than a few actually, 1080p 60fps is a thing on quite a few retail releases tbh.It's one of the few rock-solid 60fps retail releases I've seen on PS4.
I have both PC and PS4 and have spent a fair amount of time compairing them. PC has better grass and slightly higher res shadows. PS4 has more smoke/dust and fog effects. Both look and run great.
Now here's a pc guy who gives a non-biased analysis after comparing. From what I've seen you would be right, in one of the pics I've seen that the grass is better on the PC for sure. I know that DF said that the pc version uses HBAO as opposed to SSAO on the consoles, but in some earlier pics in this thread it seems some shadows are non-existent on pc, could you perhaps post some pics to show how superior the hbao looks to you against the PS4 version?I have both PC and PS4 and have spent a fair amount of time compairing them.

Whilst the PC version does seem to be improved in some areas (shadow resolution, AA etc), in other areas the console version actually looks better. With the PC version either missing shadows or AO etc.

Seems to be yet another poor PC port, joining the ranks of games like Watchdogs at launch. Pretty embarrassing optimisation wise tbh.
Why exactly would your controller preference be relevant in this thread? Can't you use the r1 for shooting in another controller config?Bought the Xbox One version at launch, recently double dipped and bought the PS4 version. It's been some weeks since I played the Xbox One version, but I found it quite hard to adjust to the PS4 triggers. I'm not a great in these type of games player, but went back to the Xbox One version this afternoon and despite the game looking a bit better on the PS4 ( although Xbox One is looking great as well ), I really prefer the Xbox One controller for this game.
Why shouldn't it be? Actually, wouldn't it make sense to have the closing statement in DF always in the form: "While the PS4 version of the game has better image quality and it keeps the framerate more consistently at 60fps, we declare Xbox One version better because of the controller."Why exactly would your controller preference be relevant in this thread?

There is something wrong with Digital Foundry's PC results. I've talked to a couple of people who play the game, they both had better performance than that with the game maxed out at 1080p. Someone should tweet DF and let them know they should doublecheck their test system.
Ha!, you know what they need to start comparing, sound? Also how comes DF says nothing of loadtimes?Why shouldn't it be? Actually, wouldn't it make sense to have the closing statement in DF always in the form: "While the PS4 version of the game has better image quality and it keeps the framerate more consistently at 60fps, we declare Xbox One version better because of the controller."
The pc version is not using ssao though but hbao, is this a similar issue to the need for speed rivals comparison where df was corrected by the dev.Declarius said:Doesn't look like a missing shadow to me, looks like not great SSAO looking like a missing shadow. The angle of the light in those shots wouldn't cast a shadow like that.
What are we watching here exactly, towards the right and behind the railing on the pc version I see a bit more shadow detail, but it appears there's a bit of inconsistency based on earlier screens in this thread.Stallion Free said:Here you go:

I'd have gladly traded my PC or PS4 versions (double-dipped) if I could have played the game 6 months ago, even at 900p. It's that good. 1080p vs 900p is like nothing to me. A couple of shadows or frame drops doesn't matter to me, either. As long as it doesn't have horrific tearing or something jarring like that, I'm good. Six months earlier is huge. Best multi-player game of the year so far, one of the best in recent years too. Buy it!Good tradeoff = playing the worst version of a game early.

Lol,
What nowadays seen as a "worst version" still looks incredible & sharp ...![]()
Drops with a 680? With my 770 playing at 1080p with all settings maxed out the game NEVER goes under 105 fps, usually 120![]()
I hear the game scales pretty well with lots of cores, so this benchmark might be not be too representative of what they should have got with a stock i5 (but there's not too many benchmarks to choose from):

Yo Ethomaz, are you going to adress your earlier comment about performance? Seems you were quite wrong there.Better resolution and better performance.
DAT 1080p60fps experience.
And WOW @ PS4 > PC.

I'm guessing all the smug fuckers from the first 2 pages have already crawled back under the floor boards.
Meanwhile digital foundry wins with another garbage article getting tons of clicks
not sure what you found lol worthy about his post. I hate the ps4 sticks and triggers.LOL...good stuff, right there.

Because I still would of liked to see this build for the price you was saying.
