BF3 PS3 vs PC

ok guys, thanks for the feedback. Overclocking to 905Mhz core and 2020Mhz clock did not help much.
I guess I have to lower my settings a bit then to get higher fps.

I based my settings on this one and I get 40+ fps, though I felt it was still not fast enough.

will tinker with my settings now.

Cheers

you have a very similar spec to mine, what screen res do you run at? Mine is only 1680x1050 but I get 45-60FPS most of the time with the 'high' default and no other changes.

turn off hbao/ssao or whatever its a massive performance gain and makes spotting people easier

Your 460 alone has more power than the ps3.
Tweak with some settings, 460 should be good for a medium / high mixture.

As for the PS3 version, it has one graphic setting. Ass.
But its not all about graphics, its all about the gameplay, which again is going to be better on PC.

The GTX 460 is still good! I play BF3 on High 1080p with AA off just fine.

Try overclocking it to pull out a bit more FPS.

If I'm not mistaken BF3 is limited to 12v12 on consoles? Can hardly be considered a "Battlefield".

Didn't mention hit reg but yes it is much better :confused:

Ps3 version is garbage, just like the ps3 itself with its decades old 7800 gtx

I guess the Uncharted games must be garbage then.

Tbh Uncharted 2 and 3, and God of War 3 looked superb compared to the multi-platform games... (DUUUUUH)

No no no, dont get this on PS3 over the PC.

Ive got a GTX460 for the win version and it plays BF3 no sweat, not all the settings are on max but then they dont need to be if you asked me, the difference in some settings is so minor its not worth the extra gpu load. Must be something else on your system holding it back.

Don't start on this.

Consoles are a closed well optimised platform that isn't weighed down by the bloat that is windows.

Consoles will always be able to do much more with the same hardware, same as the macs when the game is written natively for it.

Have both for PS3 and PC, PC is a hell of a lot better although i have a beasty system but id still chose PC version tbh all battlefields deserve to be PC played

silversurfer · 26 Dec 2011 at 15:43

460 is fine, you realise a ps3 will run bf3 on a 7800 nvidia and it just manages by downgrading all the graphics.
Use the 460 and adjust if needed

What I can't get over is the mentality of some people because some game developers can learn and adapt while making some games shine. Unlike the majority. But because of this, the majority of the masses choose to **** it.
