Arma 3 nuff said

Wasdie

You mean with the horrible LoD system and flat trees after about 200 meters?

I love ArmA 3 and it's new lighting is fantastic, but it will always have issues with LoD and detail because it's a sim.

Yep, hard to argue with that. It's vastly improved over Arma 2 though.

The lighting is great, especially at night time but the rest isn't so pretty. But since the game is so huge compromises have to be made.

[QUOTE="darksusperia"][QUOTE="gameofthering"]

I don't know how my CPU ( Phenom II X6 1055T @ 2.8GHz) compares to that but I couldn't really run the game with my GTX570 :( 

painguy1

I havent played it recently, but on my old machine before I built my currrent one I would get a min of 40fps in a huge battle with a GTX 570 and a i7 950 @ 3.8Ghz.

the game is super CPU bound. Its basically a modified freerealms engine which is super old. Some peeps at SOE admited to this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Cp3j-7yz3I

 

 

 

I realise its cpu bound, but the 570 can do the 40fps if given room to run.

I think Wasdie is confusing the art direction with the technical graphics. It looked great when I first saw it, but after seeing next gen games, it just lost its appeal, in no way this is a contender for graphics king, however, if you're talking about last gen games, then I digress.

Considering the scale it does look good.. Its a fun title and I spent many hours online...

But I wouldnt say its a Graphics King contender since there are many other better looking titles...

Assassins Creed Black Flag, Watchdogs, Killzone SF, Ryse, Battlefield 4 all make Planetside look average at best its big barren worlds with no detail

Its pretty CPU heavy.

Hopefully more CPU optimization is done for this game since you could essentially lose 40% of performance by having a weaker CPU or a AMD.

Sony are really going to have to pull something out the hat to optimise the game for PS4 and its AMD tech

Thats not very hard when they have one set of hardware to aim for.

These screens don't do PS2 any justice.

The game looks impressive because of it's scale and lighting. Screens of small skirmishes or up close stuff won't do it any justice.

 Every engine is a modified "old engine". Do you think crytech started all over from scratch going from cryengine 1 to 2, and 2 to 3? Software is highly iterative, there are very few and far cases where people "start from scratch" if they already have solid foundations. Theres absolutely no reason to start from scratch if you coded it smartly.

Total bullsh*t.  I think it's because devs are too lazy to make consoles handle 40,000 units onscreen at once.

Yep, I have a game going right now in Rome: Total War on my sh*tty PC.  In all it's minimal options glory.  Still fun as hell though, and I think it could easily be put on the new consoles.  They are powerful enough.

The AMD?  WTF are you talking about?  That's a solid CPU, plenty to run at least medium settings on console.

Dude, who would want to play Total War with a controller though? RTS's and gamepads do not jive.

I'm guessing that would be the graphics card.  I don't know what kind of graphics card the X1 or PS4 has, but I would be surprised if it couldn't handle total war.

it's not possible to play total war games with a controller. The devs would have to redesign the entire game and streamline it to hotkey everything on the controller.

 

even if they did all of that who'd even buy it on the consoles?

An amazing game, I'd have played it more if it wasn't so heavy on resources.

Now that I have my new PC I'll play more of it when I'm done finishing my backlog of games I skipped due to lack of processing power.

There are rarely any RTS have been successful on console beside the developer already said they aren't planning to release on next gen

I think I might be late to this but I'm sure we have posted this right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysyxOknXi6I Basically saying PS4 version would match a high end pc version on max setting.
