Low for a pro mate. Everything except mesh and terrain quality which put as ultra. I still play with these settings on my 8gb 290X.

Edit: And were fine on my on HD6970
Edit2: and texture filtering... max that too.

low for a pro lmao...pfffft. My BF4 has never seen anything but Ultra, Ultra, Ultra, Ultra, Ultra and that was even back on my wee 7950 crossfire setup. I'f I wanted my game to look like an Xbox 360 game, I'd just play it on XB1 or PS4 lol. I'm on PC and 1440p for eye candy man, otherwise what's the point in buying expensive gpus
 
No idea what my 780 can do at Ultra.

You need eye candy for an FPS? Does seeing the sun shafts radiating off the crystal blue waters help you to see enemy players then?

For GTA type games I want eye candy but for fps I don't want fluff and crap on the screen.
 
Yeh it's because you're not getting constant frames. Smoothness over IQ everyday of the week. It's not like we're playing Skyrim here boys!

EDIT: For the record I have Mesh and Textures set to Ultra, rest low and MSAA is definitely not worth the performance hit - would rather use DSR, but not sure it would make any difference @ 1440p.

I dislike ambient occlusion with ultra settings as it makes it harder to see into buildings, etc. from a distance.

I run mesh, textures at ultra the rest on low AA deferred off, post on high (FXAA) AO off and get 120fps pretty much constant on my setup - can dip a little when capturing video if things get really busy.

Would like to run everything ultra though but would need to upgrade to a 980ti really to do that at 120fps - or a second 780 but SLI in this game isn't really an advantage :S.




I've played a few rounds with dodg3rman recently so I assume safe to add :P

Not seen any hackers in the last 3 weeks TBH. It seems to have died down. :)
 
Yup great games last night, I need to get my SweetFX sorted out, the vanilla washed out looks isn't doing it for me.

Dogerman is safe, used to be a Tank rival with Le Nexus at the start of the game.

Used to run it on ssd but thats full now so i've had to put it on my old hdd and I wait an eternity now to get into games. Usually the first flags have long gone and no tanks left to hide in. By the time I get to the action its already moved on :D

Get a bigger SSD, those load times would kill me!
 
Well, I played some BLOPS 3 last night. Popped into TS now and again but nobody was on.

I have already played the Beta on PS4 and saw the same old Cod issues rear their head.

On PC it is much more noticable. The lag comp and hit reg is shockingly bad and WTF is the deal with the weird negative mouse accel? But overall, the accuracy afforded to mouse / KB players mitigates a fair bit of it. I was coming MVP or 2nd quite a lot in lobbies on TDM last night, even with the terrible hit reg. I also got used to the weird accel I think - or it went away by disabling vsync? Not entirely sure but I had to turn off vsync as for some reason the game wasn't recognising my monitor as being 120/144hz and I was capped at 60 FPS. So I turned off vsync, set FPS cap to 120 and hey ho, I got 120 FPS. Weird.

Had some nice 3-4 K/D maps last night, my best being something like 4.5 but after two hours I was bored and went to watch TV. More maps may help keep interest, though. Personally I think it is much better than AW and would be great fun if they fixed the hit reg, removed lag comp and had enough dedis for all the players. P2P lobbies are ****. Tick rate appears to be so low in CoD games that the servers often send you the wrong data on screen, particularly when running into an enemy headlong. You have your gun up firing, then die suddenly. Kill cam shows enemy was shooting you before you even had your gun up :( Grrr.

I am huge critic of CoD in general, but I would buy BLOPS3 if they fixed the damn netcode. Underneath I think it is a fun run and gun shooter, but it is irreprably marred by the terrible netcode.
