Sorry guys may have been answered but I've been able to play all the last few years of BF with everything on Ultra with no issues... with my HOF 980 4GB VRam card will this be the case with this game also do you think? Looking at any excuse to get a new Titan ><

Thanks

According to the Anandtech bench, the 980 just about does 60fps @1440p ULTRA settings. From memory, BFHL and SWBF were each slightly more taxing, and I'd expect BF1 yo be 10% worse than SWBF.

My guess would be ~90fps low for pro and ~45-50 on ultra.

I really hope they add bolt action rifle with just iron sights to every class as a basic rifle.

Yeah, need to be like 80% accuracy with 60% dmg and fastish reload times/
love iron sight rifles that pack a punch!

Really looking forward to this, looking forward to the single player also. Though I'm a bit nervous on how my 980 Ti will handle it at 4k ideally I want at least very high and 60fps don't mind about aa

Ian Jones · 9 Aug 2016 at 21:41

that looks fun

4k mate played it maxxed all up on two 1080 sli held 60 fps.

so a 980 ti will be struggling tbh.

1440 will be the sweetspot for a 980ti

Newbfail · 10 Aug 2016 at 00:03

meh, was hoping I could hold onto my 980ti for this

Garfo · 10 Aug 2016 at 00:08

Just seen this in an email from origin:

origin said:
Play the Hottest New Games First
Jump into Battlefield™ 1 and FIFA 17 before anyone else! Origin Access* members get to try EA’s newest games five days before release at no extra cost, and can pick up right where they left off if they decide to buy.

Is this for ******* real? Pay a monthly tax and get into BF1 before anyone else? Is this before pre-order customers as well??

Josh · 10 Aug 2016 at 09:10

Another reason to hate EA/Origin.

~>Dg<~ · 10 Aug 2016 at 10:08

it is annoying.so basically those who dont sub into the monthly system end up playing fully ranked up unlocked players one day one. :rolleyes:

Except that origin access doesn't give them rights to play the game on release, they still have to buy it if they want to continue playing it (or wait a year or so until it's added to the access general list.)

So if you want to play early, and you want all the content, you have to subscribe, and buy premium! :eek:

Born_2_Kill_83 · 10 Aug 2016 at 10:55

So £4 quid to play the game five days before the Premium which is 4 days before proper release but can cancel it at any-time.

Do I want to play 9 days early? Tbf there's quite a few games to keep you busy for 13days in October foc for being a member.

For being a member you get 10% off purchases, so £3.99 on the 1st October for membership, 10% off deluxe which will make it £58.50 instead of £65, so it basically pays for it's self you save a couple of quid and you play early.
