DICE and its Battlefield 3 shooter have been fielding some questions from ‘certain’ gamers as more details concerning the console version of the game come to light. We recently learnt that, unlike what DICE had said, the PC version will look better, obviously. News also surfaced concerning the title’s frame rate, with DICE settling for 30FPS. Now as for output, it’ll be rendered in 720p on consoles and to that DICE says, ‘uh, yeah?’
Whether it comes through remakes or a new game with a similar style, DICE should aim to revive the glory days of Battlefield 3 and Bad Company 2.
hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D
You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.

Battlefield 3 Reality Mod release is now set for July 17, and we get a brand new release date trailer that brings the action and grounded gunfights.
it's true
Well isnt it obvious 5 year old hardware will have drawbacks. Though i am sure a 8800GTX will still be playing this game in 1080p better graphic settings then console version and still be pulling 30fps+.
what confuses me is this guys responses to people, looking at his tweets, to one person he said the PS3 demo was Pre-alpha then to another it was New-build, so what is it new-build pre-alpha or what?
can someone clarify please

...80% of Battlefields sales will come on consoles. Nobody is denying that 99.99% of console games are native 720p/30fps but when you run around with your big mouths telling everyone that your engine is a next gen engine in the current gen...o_O...and that all other devs are lazy...AND...spend months showing PC footage given the impression that the game will look like that on all platforms, well, DUH, you get what you are getting right now...a face full of fail.
I said from the beginning there would be a price to pay for showing you game running on a high end PC and acting like everyone would get the same experience on a console or a dual core mid range PC. It was a blatant lie and a complete and utterly underhanded move trying to discredit Activision and the COD franchise...you lose.
Activision has ALWAYS shown the game you would play across all platforms. No CGI or fantasy PC footage that only those who have invested heavily in a PC would enjoy. Like it or hate it, at least they were upfront. Dice and EA have done nothing but lie since day one...hope it was worth it.
@substance...EA without the consoles would be no more. They would be dead in the water. What is happening in the PC world is why Console makers don't want to combine the 2. Nintendo is quite clear that if you want to play Mario or any of their IP's, you will have to OWN a Nintendo console. They don't even allow DvD movies. M$, while considering adding XBL to the PC, will want to keep them separated...for the time being.
EA is making it clear that they want to run their own DD network and there will be growing pains as they cut off Steam and others in that arena. Expect ALL pubs to start their own DD networks as well...the tech is cheap now. Steam will lose the most in the short term. Expect Valve to start pushing games out faster and more often...they have to or there will be no reason to sign up.
@strange...thank-u, I'll take that as a compliment... ;D
Who cares? Uncharted 3 hurry up!
