Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

Someone on Twitter asked if any maps are 2x2km, response, some are TWICE as big

http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-3/1428724-huge-battlefield-3-maps-2km.html

MENTAL!

For reference, Caspian Border is 1.2x1.2km I think, or is it 2x2km?

There's a chance that my comment about the new trailer was in jest, referring to the ridiculous amount of times it's been posted in this thread. Just a chance.

What the hell's this? A race to see who can post the latest vids the quickest

Seems people now think they were referring to km squared. So who knows?

Could this possibly be the biggest game thread ever?

Just run a battlefield 3 scan to see if my computer downstairs will work.
it says my gpu wont run bf3. im using a 2500k 4.8ghz 8 gig memory and a gtx295 overclocked to 700 core 1200 memory. only using a 22 inch monitor.
would have thought my gpu would run bf3 but looks like it wont. hmmm.

nvidia system check here.

Probably because it's not DX11, so it fails the nvidia (trying to flog you a new card) test by default. Im sure it will be fine in DX10 mode. I think the minium card is DX10, 512mb ram. A 295 should be fine, but wont have DX11.

Minimum GRAPHICS CARD (NVIDIA): DIRECTX 10.0 COMPATIBLE WITH 512 MB RAM (NVIDIA GEFORCE 8, 9, 200, 300, 400 OR 500 SERIES WITH NVIDIA GEFORCE 8800 GT OR HIGHER PERFORMANCE)

Reccomended GRAPHICS CARD: DIRECTX 11 COMPATIBLE WITH 1024 MB RAM (NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 560 OR ATI RADEON 6950)
