Some nice pics. The Water looks much better now than it did in BF 1942. Also the objects seem alot more detailled. However the landscape graphics don´t impress me much. Dosn´t seem to be a big difference to vanilla BF...

Yeah.... I dont see anything special here. Its just a mod for BF....

What about the way it feels? Does it play the same?

Its plays alot different than BF or any mod. The landscape is a ton better, as it has grass that really give you cover. Its really alot more. Its the opposite of El ala or a BF map like that. Most of them are like a cross between lost village and stalingrad. Fun Fun Fun...

I still dont think you should be saying anything, we all know how you got it and should just leave it be till its actually released in North America. Dont you agree?

i agrrw with 420, im not reading many BF:V articals or any thing, pre game hype can be a good thing, its publicises the game, but too much gives it away.

im not even going to bother downloading it, i have to wait untill sataday to get it but at least it will be a suprize. its kinda a good thing that i get BF:V late, my new system comes on monday so i should have that up running so i can run BF:V with max everything, w00t.

Didn´t the game have some issues with the Radeon 9800 Pro card. And what do you mean with "system lags a pretty good on max". That you can play it with no problems, or that it lags quite a bit...

sorry for that. I get around 30fps at 1600x1200x32. playable if constant, but it can go down, alot online too. Playing now at 1280x960 and its fine. Max details, never get any gfx lag. There are not any problems with teh 9800pro, all roumors. If anyone really needs it, Ill throw my 4400 in and see how it works.

Nope, text is fine, Ill give you some benches grim, give me a minute.


OK, first off I get lots of glitches when turning on AA and AF on my 9800pro. Set on Quality all.

No AA - 92-100
2AA/4AF - 68-73
4AA/8AF - 55-63
6AA/16AF - 39-50

First number is as low as I saw it go, second is where it averages. I used the "fps 1" command.

But once again it was rather glitchy. One bad thing, they took the buddy list and map/kick vote out....
