Hey look no sheep.  Let us know when you actually do something that matters

HiTech, thanks for the preview.   Lookin' good!

I won't ask about marketing, enough said.

I will ask about computers. I see the frame well above 100. What kind of minimum standards will I need on my computer to make this happen? My limited technical knowledge tells me I will need a new monitor that allows a higher framerate. And, I presume I can simply update my video card if needed. Will I need a new motherboard?

105 isn't the frame rate, it's milliseconds per frame, so running at just under 10 fps.  But please correct me if I'm wrong.

Love the new bridges and rivers/ river banks. Moving GV choke points away from the SPs can only be a good thing IMO. The emphasis on spawn camping in AH is always what has put me off trying GVs in the past.

im guessing people will just camp the bridge.

im guessing people will just camp the bridge.

So am I, but that is what would have happened in RL too. This at least gives the opposition a chance to move into cover positions for a bridge crossing or call up air support. The instant spawn-bang-your dead of the current game is a real turn off for me.

I also really like the new terrain palette, it is a lot more muted and realistic looking than the current predominately acid green colour.

Don't you mean eye melting green?

I'll be using the Jagdpanzer IV.

Frame rate is 105
Ms per frame is 9.52

Oh I hope I will get that kind of FR with my Radeon HD 5770's.   I wonder, will I be able to push graphics to max with my crossfire 5770's, or would it be best to just run off the one?

agreed.

hitech can make more than 1 bridge also so it is an improvement

but how bout 1920x1080?

but how bout 1920x1080?

I was wondering the same

[artik]

And what graphics card is that?

I'm really worrying about by Laptop's Intel HD performance...

[Greebo]

I'd have thought that at this stage you would not be able to tell much about the final framerate. Once all the debugging code gets removed and we see some screenshots from the POV of aircraft and GVs moving around in the terrain then the FPS shown will have more meaning.

The new engine should make better use of the graphics card's currently unused shader feature to reduce load on the CPU and is meant to be more efficient as well. So it isn't necessarily the case that the new version will have worse performance than the old version even on an Intel based laptop. So long that is that the Intel card used is recent enough that it supports Shader 3.0.

you are wrong.  he isnt running at 10 fps.  he's running at 60 fps but he's got vsync disabled.  but with the really really slow video card that he's testing with will make a different with ours.  he's got a 9800gtx, most players have a faster vc.  but he only got that one just to see how it works on slower video cards.
