BF4

China Rising release trailer


I thought the standard map's looked really nice but they've done a wicked job on the newer one's too. I've foud myself just trecking about checking out the scenery

Looks nice Ryan

Here is a shot of how the game is set now with it "Optimized" for me. :)

It will look really nice at those settings chap
I have to run with HBAO off as it causes to much heat lol but I can't see the difference anyway. With it on my gpu's will hit about 76c in game but off they stay around 60-65c give or take a degree or 2.
How are you finding that Geforce Experience? It was really buggy at first so I've never installed it but it has Shadow play now which is sounding pretty decent for recording game play with minimal hit on performance.

He's right. Talking about being bit by a whole basket full of snakes, I was downloading yesterdau and had 67% downloaded. While working on the computer, I bumped the power cord which shut the whole thing down. When I started back up there was nothing there, nada! I looked everywhere, so had to start over.

Geez-us I bloody hate that non-resuming downloads. I presume the air was full of curses?

With the new 780's I was able to move up to 5760x1200, all ultra settings and x2MSAA and stay around the 50-70 FPS average with odd dips. Vram usage is around 2700Mb. If I venture online I'll knock a few settings down for extra smooth.

Do you have the annoying SLI flickering though Ryan? I can't believe nvidia weren't reasy for it this time after BC2 and BF3

I found that the SP is harder on your Gpu than the MP so you may not have to lower your settings chap.
The only flickering I see is some distant textures like chain link fences flickering but nothing major. I updated from 331.65 to 331.82 yesterday but started to get direct X error's so have just gone back to 331.65.

Interesting. On 331.65 up to 331.93, I'm getting really bad flickering with any sort of smoke effect and the odd texture thing as well. Happened with my 670's too. Wonder if it's HBAO, since I have it enabled and you don't. Might have a look later.

Yeah during the beta with HBAO enabled all the smoke flickered. It was unplayable like that so I turned it off but I have tried it since and haven't seen the same effect, It just causes more heat for me.
