VRAM is VRAM, but the bottom line is that it's completely unreasonable for a GPU that costs twice as much as an Xbox One to not be able to run the game maxed out and at higher than 1080p.
Those drivers better work miracles.

it totally could run it fine, but it simply doesn't have enough space to store the textures. It has the computational power to run the game of course, but the problem is that it runs out of VRAM and has to use system ram. That's the bottleneck, not the computational power of the card.
In general, VRAM is a waste to spend extra money on, I agree. It doesn't make the card faster, but it does help in instances like this where a game uses a lot of memory for textures.
Yeah, it's kind of bad, regardless of how they cache or load things. It's not the best looking game either.
That's what I was saying with my awkward English skills.
Seems reasonable to me. We are hitting next gen with consoles that have an insane amount of VRAM, are you honestly surprised with the higher demands? The GTX690 is a card that was not designed for the future.
Respawn would need to put in a lot of effort in to modify the engine to support better textures streaming to address a small segment of players (which can still play the game fine without insane textures). This is assuming if it is possible at all to address this problem with better textures streaming. I wouldn't know, since I'm not an expert.
I strongly doubt it. Nobody has mentioned resetting stats that I've heard.
When Titanfall looks like it does and runs like it does, while Battlefield 4 runs and looks like it does? You're God damn right I'm surprised.

100% agree. It's why I bought a 3GB card last fall. However, to Antitrop's point, it's unreasonable that a high-end card should have issues playing a game with ultra textures and this falls on the developers.
Screw the shirt, I want that mini controller thingy...what is it?
Was so worth sitting in line for 6 hours. Still, it's insane they're not selling the game at the midnight launch party at austin, and I cancelled my gamestop collector's edition pre-order too D:
amazon and the microsoft look to be empty, any other online retailers have stock?
a replica xbone controller keychain.
Ha, good lord, my wife would instantly divorce me. I still like it, though.
It's just a bad match with the GTX690.
Even with Battlefield 4 if you have a GTX690 or a Titan, but have an average CPU. You aren't going to get a good performance either.

Any word on any custom profiles for NVIDIA being available for titanfall?
Or any Updated/Beta driver's?

Campaign multiplayer seems meaningless. It's just MP with extra dialog.

Man, your rig should be able to absolutely handle it. GTX 690 is pretty beefy, it seems to be different for everyone in the red and green sides, but what worked for me was forcing v-sync and triple buffering in RadeonPro. I was able to maintain 120fps just fine with everything maxed and AA at 2xEQ.
Prior to doing this in RadeonPro, for some reason Titanfall only allowed me to choose double buffered v-sync (the beta let me choose tripled buffering though), and it was stuttering like a mother fucker.
For reference I am on a 2500k@4.6GHz and an overclocked R9 290X playing on 2560x1440 resolution.

Twitch: "Titanfall should not be broadcast at this time without express written permission from Respawn/EA. You risk a DMCA suspension if you broadcast before 12:01am EST 3/11."
I don't remember this happening for Thief when it leaked early

Woo. Thanks.
Single player campaigns often are just like that, but with AI and linear maps.

If antitrop can contain himself and not do the date check .exe thing, then we should ALL be able to wait it out until tomorrow night
THis is a good point as well. Is the I7 overclocked? Source games are CPU dependent as well.
I'm dying, but between the reviews and working tomorrow, the wait will be easier.If antitrop can contain himself and not do the date check .exe thing, then we should ALL be able to wait it out until tomorrow night

True Detective and earlier the Bulls/Heat game have made things a little easier. I'm holding out as well. I don't see a reason to rush. There's no competition for fun.

Nah.. This is one is literally a MP match with different dialog. You're not going along some predetermined path.
Anyway I don't get what's up with people having PC performance issues. The game runs like butter for me. I got everything maxxed out, textures on very high, resolution 1440p and AA off and the game runs at 60fps or close to that pretty much all the time with no screen tearing(double buffer but I'm going to try radeon pro's triple buffer.)
This is on a AMD FX4100 OC'd to 4.1GHZ
Radeon HD 7870 OC'd

Yeah, it's so you get storyline while playing MP. I'll take it. Especially since we get so many maps at launch.
That's what I mean. Single player campaigns can be just as meaningless. The difference is that you're playing a linear level against AI. The dialog often is delivered the same.
Checking out now...but the Ustream iOS app is terrible.
Yeah I know. Awful quality.

Put in 10 hours so far. Hit level 40.
It's great.
Only main con is I'm not a fan of any of the high level gun/tier unlocks. Maps are good so replay value should be okay.

Contemplating on going to the midnight release so I can grab both Titanfall and Dark Souls II tomorrow night, but I have to work at 8am the next day so I wouldn't get much sleep. Decisions...

So considering there has been some posts about the removal of triple buffering Vsync as an in game setting, has there been any word as to why it was removed?. Was there reports in the beta about the triple buffering option doing bad things or something?, it just seems weird to me to have it removed an option.

That's one way to look at it, but there are some scripted events as well and I found that the overall presentation of the campaign flavor of the maps works really well with contextualizing the conflict and adding a good bit of extra tension. It's simple yet effective. It's not a substitute for a true single player campaign, but it still adds a nice layer to the overall package.

One of my friends is playing the PC version and can't change the resolution; I hope there aren't any weird PC bugs day one.

Guys I am going to wake up in the morning and then like four hours later reviews will be out.
Are you under 30? Then do it man. If you're over 30 then maybe get some sleep for the long week ahead.
