I play with everything ultra and do very well (stats back this up)
So maybe it's the noob who need to lower settings to get advantage over people?
Noob
Oh I suck at these games regardless of my graphics detail, which is why I hope to have decent graphics, so at least whoever shoots me will look good doing it (if I even see them).
Maybe your stats would be better if you turned your settings down?
Still I've played with some pro/competative gamers and some people that say they're very good, look at my KDR. When the 2 meet you can guess which ones rage quit while swearing the other person is cheating.
(and no, it's not the pro gamer)
Luckily since I suck I don't find it as frustrating as the people that think they're good because of what their stats say. The people that play against people like me and get good stats compared to the people that play against other pro gamers.
But this is going off topic now.
Everything is just speculation based off a few graphs. We'll find out soon enough.
The other thing we could speculate over is, if they recommend a 6 core AMD chip does this mean the game will use 6 threads (cuz a 6 core wont run 4 threads any better than a quad will it)? When they say Quad core Intel do they mean an i5 or i7 (which is still a quad, except for the few 6-core on the enthusiast platform). Maybe we need to worry that i5s will bottleneck so much that it doesn't matter how much VRAM you have...
