So here are some pretty heavy BF4 info leaks. I gotta say, it sounds real nice except for one little thing. http://wccftech.com/battlefield-4-sticks-720p60-fps-nextgen-consoles-frostbite-25-game-details-leaked-arriving-november-2013/"The new Frostbite 2.5 engine would feature much more enhanced visuals with PC being the lead platform for the game." "According to the details, Battlefield 4 would maintain a steady 60 FPS on 720P resolution on both next generation consoles which include the PS4 and Xbox 720" "the game would feature Dynamic weather effects such as rain, sandstorms, fog, haze and would be totally random." "Battlefield 4 would also bring back the much renowned and upgraded Destruction 4.0 system to the game which would offer destructible environments and buildings which we saw back in Bad Company 2." "The game would be set in 2020 but maintains a modern day setting featuring China and USA as the main infantry factions." "Commander system as expected is definately making a return to the game with the leading commander Providing fire, recharges and UAV detection support to their team. Skill system has also been overhauled." "Micro-transactions would be available in the game but they won’t affect the balance of the game at all and are entirely optional" Quite a bit of information there but I have to say that I'm very disappointed that the new consoles were only able to push out 720p. I know it's going to be a very intense game but still, I was expecting full 1080p so this is a pretty huge letdown for me since it already seems that PS4 will be quite underpowered even from the start.

yea i read elsewhere they'll have fem soldier too.
i think i'm just going to build a pc for this. screw 720p. i'm not really that much of a graphics whoore but i really did expect this new gen to be baseline 1080p. i don't want to spend another generation having to choose between 1080p/30 fps or 720p/60fps. If it came down to it i'd settle for 720p/30 but only towards the second half of the generation.
it just sucks that we're already having to make that compromise. it's 2013 dammit.

Well, BF3 supposedly runs "just short of 720p" on consoles, and we all know how great it looks.. (d)

Yep, exactly right. It wouldn't be as bad if it ran at 60 fps since movement/mechanical performace is probably more desirable than visual performance, but that'd be in reference to PS3 and 360. I really would expect PS4 to be fully 1080p/60 out of the gate.
One thing that keeps me hopeful is that it sounds like it's going to be a really technically intensive game. That would mean that you'd need like a 7970 or something to really run it at it's highest. Medium level cards couldn't hand it on max and keep a high framerate. I doubt they'd make a game that only people with the high end stuff could run well and sell like 100,000 copies. Hopefully they'd also allow consoles to turn off certain things like AA which I think taxes the gpu like nothing else. Maybe turn down weather effect resolution and stuff like that down too. I'd happily turn things on low to afford more frames/sec.
I guess I'm going to have to wait until the end of the month when they finally present the game publicly and maybe give out a little bit of concrete information. For all I know 1080p/60 will be doable.

For me personally, I'd rather have better graphics and a lower framerate. Half the time in BF3 I die because there's a guy just standing there who I can't make out because everything's so blurry. And in a heli I can't find anyone unless they're running on a plain. I really don't understand how they went backwards from BC2.

"art direction". it literally ****ed everything up. they better have learned their lesson after the entire community raged.  i think the models look better and have a lot higher resolution (esp.on PC) but the art direction they took really messed everything up. Blue tint everywhere, lense flare, the overpowered sun... You could totally pick people out of the background in BC2 and that was also 720p.

I doubt it. Every single aspect of BF3 was blue-and-orange. From the GUI to the environments. They can't turn away from it now.

WAY TO KILL THE HOPE!!!  Nah, hopefully we'll see something better and more polished than BF3.

So these are supposed leaks for the BF4 alpha. It's running on the Xbox and apparently it'll have working elevators (uh, wtf), 5 man squads and a huge scope. The map just looks enormous. Commo Rose seems to be included in consoles now and you seem to have a selectable knife slot in the loadout screen. Also destruction seems that it has a massive boost. Can't wait for that. Here are 50+ leaked pics. Looks early alpha since textures aren't there and loadout descriptions aren't even included. http://mp1st.com/2013/06/08/battlefield-4-rumor-59-leaked-images-of-the-battlefield-4-alpha/

Selectable knife, cool. I wonder if we can bring back 'the lunge' knife from bc2.  5 player ssquads, awesome!
