So today I got a new 6850 and when I installed it.. Oh my God, Battlefield is such an amazing game! I didn't realise how the low FPS was causing it to suck, I just thought it was the game in general just not being amazing... Jesus

I now know the true power of upgrading a graphics card..

I upgraded for BF3 also and it was such a great decision. I got a 6950 from a GTS 250 that could only play the game on low settings in a window.

I know the feeling, used to run it on low/medium settings in order to get decent framerates (average of 30fps) but then I took an arrow... errmm oopss..I upgraded and now run everything smoothly on Ultra :) (beautiful game)

I played it on a friends PC and was getting a high kill:death ratio, then played it on my old graphics card and was getting like.. 0:12.. Now I'm getting like 10:5! :D

That doesn't make sense, the FPS doesn't change wether the game is good or not.

A higher FPS does connote a more enjoyable experience. It's frustrating to shoot things at 15 FPS.

How can you possibly blame a game due to low fps? Unless there is a stupid 30 or 60fps cap.

He isn't blaming the game itself but the experience of playing the game at low FPS...... I think

I meant my experience sucked due to the low FPS, sorry if I was unclear, the game itself is a bucket of fun

Well, the experience in ANY game is going to be bad if you are below the reasonable FPS.... good that u cleared up that ur experience sucked and not the game.

When you don't lag, it makes a difference of that one player get that trigger off before you. Trust me.. I know.. My K/D (I know BF isn't about kills) improved from 1.03 to 1.7-ish. And my scores per minute is in the top 5 among all friends and platoon. It certainly helps when it isn't so laggy and performance is 50-60fps.
