Where is the patch?

Re: Where is the patch?

I hope BF3 has massive maps with support for 150-players. *drools*

I don't. All that means is lag. Server side and client side

They are doing 256 players in MAG. :p

Wont BF3 use another engine too? I hope so...

I think 150 players is a little too much to hope for though... Maybe a little below the 100 mark would be more realistic? One can always dream :)

BF3 will use the Frostbite engine.

Re: Where is the patch?

Did EA/Dice actually announce a "BF3" yet? Isn't it all speculation...

Clearly it will be Frostbite as they've spent time and money developing it for their needs. It will probably be an updated version of Frostbite, updated from the Bad Company version, similar to how Unreal Engine starts at 2.0, then moves to 2.5 etc as Epic add improvements.

Re: Where is the patch?

I understand how the 'generation' engines work, but i would not be so sure they would use an engine designed for consoles mainly.

Re: Where is the patch?

I see your point, but Bad Company was developed using PC's of course, so I assume that they will tweak the engine and the tools they have.

I was very impressed with what they achieved on a console with the Frostbite engine. The detail was high, with no pop-in that I noticed, and the sense of distance was very good. Compared to the console version of Frontlines Fuel of War, the draw distance was very poor, with a lot of fog used.

CoD4 on PC used the same engine as the console versions... and see how well that went

According to DICE and EA on their forums and other forums, we should have it by the end of Aug, early Sept.

NOBODY on this forum or outside of EA/DICE know when the patch is coming or what it will have in it.

So the quicker people stop TALKING BS, the better it will be for all of us.

I contacted one of my EA contacts this morning, he wouldnt give me a date but he said it was by the end of this month or in Sept. BFH is also coming soon (Thats well known), We should have that by the 30th of Sept, if not before.
