Whats it like with xfire 6970's?

Good but id prefer about 20fps more for it to be more fluent, 5760x1080 its around 40ish on caspian.

Bugs ironed out. Gameplay is smoother. We have all the big maps with all the vehicles. Vehicles feel right. Massive battles. I just feels like BF2, just more modern with all the eye candy. The graphics are really good. The sound is epic.

Heck, even the hitboxes fell right.

Awesome. What I wanted to hear. Can't wait!

I'm very surprised they have said that. They surely have a contractual obligation with the retailers to release the game in the UK on Friday. I foresee EA getting some backlash over this.

I knew I was right.... they did the same in bc2 ea downloaders could play same time as yanks! WIN

My server is full, still downloading it so cant play for another 4 hours!!

Anyone having problems on the first SP mission where you have to press Space to jump or something? It gives me three attempts but each time it fails, regardless of me trying it at different times.

If thats where i think it is, you're to hit space repeatedly.

Wow the sound through these budget corsair headphones and xonar dg is stunning i've never heard anything like it.

RedTop89 · 24 Oct 2011 at 23:20

Ah, that would make sense!

Thanks Gerard.

couldn't agree more

Wait, so are we saying that it is released on the 25th now then? I take it this is for digital copies only and retail will remain Friday?

Phonesis · 24 Oct 2011 at 23:22

For those that have played it, what's the destruction like?

Vega · 24 Oct 2011 at 23:22

Most SLI and CFX users are reporting large stutter issues in game even with the latest drivers.

Also, Eyefinity doesn't appear to be working properly in portrait mode.

Anyone else have similar experiences?

peterattheboro · 24 Oct 2011 at 23:23

My game when trying to get online is now stuck on the loading screen?

Anyone had that?
