Battlefield 1 Early access,Road to Battlefield 1 streams (BF1 prior release thread)

Wasn't BF4 720P on X1 and 900P on PS4?
Yes, and? The bad frame rate in BF4 was due to the underpowered CPUs not being able to keep up with 64 player matches. The PS4 version of BF1 will almost certainly look better, but the slight CPU advantage the XBO has will most likely give it the edge performance wise in large matches, even if only by a few frames.
 
Yes and it's the same with BF1 as far as I know. The image is cleaner and clear though as they've made improvements to the post-AA. Also I think the Xbone S can upscale to 4k.
It appears to be dynamic in BF1, both in SP and MP. There are times it looks 1080p to me, and times it looks almost 720p. If it does drop all the way to 720p it's when there is a lot going on and I didn't have time to notice. Overall it is considerably sharper than Battlefront.

Looks like they've implemented dynamic resolution scaling to me. They added it to Mirror's Edge Catalyst post launch. Game goes all pixelated when you press the Xbox dash button too which I feel like might be related to it. It seems to look incredibly sharp in spots then blurrier when things get busier, unless my eyes deceive me. It's an awesome way to do it though, such an improvement visually over the beta.
 
Defo dynamic resolution. Pieces of the forest seemed or very close to 1080p then the areas after were dropping to 900p and 720p. Nice to have it in though. Also how do you deploy the tripod for a sniper?

You can switch between this bf4 and hardline at will via the menu? Thats what I can gather from the menu.

Game is impressive as well. Enjoying it so far.
 
One thing that really irks me in all BF games and I wish Dice would fix this is giving us the option of changing loadouts when a game ends before the next round begins.

I hate having to spend time when a game is in progress changing my loadout.

They're still doing that? Ugh...

There are 3 class profiles you can equip different setups to
 
Got one month of Origin Access, can't wait to try the game out.

Is the PC Early Enlister edition only available on Origin? Any discounts besides the 10% from EA access?

Outside of the multiplayer game? If so this wasn't in the beta was it?

So when I load up multiplayer I can spend some moments customising my loadouts to suit without having to even join a game in progress to get that menu?
 
I have the standard edition disc on PS4 pre ordered and I was looking at purchasing the premium pass on Amazon now (works out cheaper for me this way).

The release date for the premium pass is 18/10/16 does anyone know if this would give me access to play the actual game on the 18th as well?

I assume not, but one can hope!

Sadly, apart from the content, the premium pass gives you nothing extra.
 
Bravo DICE for this optimisation. My PC isn't the best so I wasn't expecting to be able to get this at 60fps at 21:9 but man, medium/high settings and I'm hovering above 70fps.

I'm liking everything about this game so far, campaign mode, the presentation, everything is on point.
 
The train on Suez is complety broken. We all cap a team. They get a train and because of that and they all cap us and win the match because of that.
 
Does it not give you Battlepacks or 2XP days like the one for BF4 did?

It gives Battlepacks yep, 14 I believe delivered every month or something along those lines. It's £35 for EA Access owners which isn't too bad, I'm tempted, but feel like I should just hold off until the first set comes out. It's annoying that they still do it this way as it sections the userbase.
 
Really tempted to grab this off Origin Access, how are the servers doing in terms of population (PC, if that wasn't clear)? Wondering if I should wait till the weekend when more people are on.

And man, is it nice to have the classic Battlefield theme back.
 
64 Player conquest on Xbox One and PS4 in BF4 is not unplayable. What's with the hyperbole?

For me it is, seems like I'm very sensitive to fluctating framerates. It just messes up the aiming, since the changing frametimes are making the input lag fluctuate as well.
BF1 Beta was even worse than BF4 is for me, and I pretty much played only Rush since with 32 players the games run at a percieved silky smooth 60fps.

I really hope the Pro's CPU "upgrade" will allow DICE to lock this @ 60fps for all player counts.
 
So is this just dead on PC or am i going on at the wrong times? There's never more than 1 person in a server for me

What are you trying to play? I just got done with two hours of conquest and my lobby was always full. If you're trying operations I think that is dead until more people start to play.
 
lmao @ the unplayable comments because of fluctuating framerates. the most fluid and twitchy online shooter on consoles (COD) plays exactly in that ballpark. plus aiming with a controller and aim assist takes so much away I wouldn't think a milisecond here or there would change it drastically.

kz2 input lag or PS3 BF3 input lag though...

i've tried Operations, which was dead. and i checked the server browser, which was dead. Is that matchmaking thing better for finding good servers?

I couldn't find anything that's not Conquest last night, I found a rush game but that was like like 14 players.

I'd rather try something new and not something I've played before and in the beta as well but oh well.
 
Is it just me or does rush feel pretty damn good in this? Aside from some worthless teammates, the flow felt better than anything BF3/4 had.
