Battlefield Tri-hard

[=sw=warlord]

never had a single one of them happen to me. The only bullshit I get is when I clearly knifed somebody and it didn't register or the inverse: I knifed the air and it registered.
I had that happen a few times and swore to never try knifing someone again.
Spawn killing is just ridiculous on Rush, I can spawn into my camp and as i decend I can see about 3 people with M60's spraying into the air hoping to hit me as I'm landing and if I do somehow make it, some jackass with a shotgun is waiting in a bush somewhere close to bum rush me.

All said, I'm already seeing more attention to detail in the Battlefield 3 than I have seen in Crysis 2. Graphics are not every thing, but the little things like lighting on even mundane objects like cartridges or on the thin rubber soles of your boots just make a game feel more polished.

I'm pretty sure lighting comes under the graphics category.
I'm not too sure comparing Crysis 2 to BF3 is really a good idea, the two have two different styles of gameplay, different art styles and different overall aspects.
Battlefield being the class style game in which you can customize your classes to some degree where as Crysis has a generic soldier that you build up to suit your own traits.

I feel that Crysis 2 and Battlefield 3 will be great games in their own arena, but they are hardly comparable, even if they are both in the FPS genre.

There is no way in-game is going to look like that. >__>

Yeah. I'm skeptical even though they said that's actual gameplay footage.

Why not? It didn't look that far past BC2.

The game simply looks amazing in graphics, but will the SP actually take place in less generic looking city environments? I hope so.

[ExAm]

Teek, did you see the video showcasing their new lighting engine? It's pretty fucking slick. I have no doubt that it'll look like that, cranked up.

[Amit]

Well, we were skeptical with Crysis and that followed through. Crytek doesn't have to be the only one making progress on that front.

I'm not excited about graphics in a multiplayer game. I would crank it down so that every enemy is rendered as bright flashing diamonds, if I could. It's getting to the point where the only things I can pick out of the environment are the things that are moving. Now I know how the T-Rex from Jurassic Park felt.

Hey DICE, how about some augmented reality to help cut through the fog of cutting-edge rendering and lighting techniques?

Look for tweak guides after release, mate.

And you guys questioning the graphics... The game's production started at around the time they were developing Bad Company 1, so they've had enough time in their hands at least.
