DICE: Battlefield 3 frame rate issue blown “out of proportion”
“For those tech-savvy enough to have looked into the actual resolution of their console games it won’t come as a surprise that a lot of console games today do not run at 1080p but rather 720p,” he said.
“When people ask for 1080p they don’t see the compromises that would be needed to get there. As for the frame-rate we’ve made a conscious decision to stick with 30 FPS on console. It’s not a technical problem with getting our game to run in 60 FPS but we do this in favor of the large amount of players, large scale maps, huge amount of vehicles, full on destruction and so on.”
Full on destruction, eh? Troedsson said Battlefield 3 will feature more destrictible environments.
“One key element of the destruction which will take a big step forward in Battlefield 3 comes from the denser, more urban environments we introduce,” he explained.
“In these you can take down the facades of huge buildings and expose or take out the enemies entrenched on the different floors.”
The PC version of Battlefield 3 will support full HD resolution and manage 60 fps – as will the console versions of rival call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.
Of the battle between the two shooter heavyweights, Troedsson said only that “it’s going to be an interesting autumn” and that DFIC would be content is “the people who play the game tell us that they enjoy it”.
Battlefield 3 is due on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in late October.

Clearly2Beast Most of you guys are retarded. The resolution of the game is 720p BUT IS UPSCALED TO 1080p. Lets take Call of Duty. Its made at a resolution of 540p BUT IS UPSCALED TO 720p AND 1080p. Stupid people are stupid.
Hmm, let's pretend like you're all smart 'n stuff...
Then why don't they enable upscaling for BF3?
Even Call of Duty 2 supports full HD on consoles. ( Interlaced, not Progressive. )

TheShadowBrokerwells51TheShadowBroker I don't know about the rest of you, but when a game drops below 60fps, it's really noticeable and distracting for me. I still plan to get BF3 (preferably on pc) though...
You're retarded if you notice a difference.
Or j just have better vision...
The science behind 30 FPS and 60 FPS deems this comment Invalid.
Go look up how many frames per second our eyes consider a smooth animation.

SwAgGxNaStY WoW Battlefield is trash! They always rush to get a game out! Same With CoD
i dont think making a game for 3 years is rushing it, now 1 year or less with cod, now thats rushing it.

I would trade frame rate for vehicles,better graphics, more players and destructible environments any day. Those who are just so quote on quote "special" that they need 60fps because 30 hurts there eyes can go enjoy the 60fps, copy and re-write of mw2.

Tiny-Wingswells51FleshyyMODZz i think the only thing battlefield 3 will have interesting is campaign as for multiplayer i bet MW3 will take the cake.
herp derp cod cod cod cod cod cod cod cod only game ever created more realistic than real life.
I think every game should be like that, let's say black ops, I would buy the zombie disk and campaign but I wouldn't buy multiplayer, that would save us some money :)
Holy **** that **** Herp Derp thing **** pisses me right the **** off! What are we now 5!?! Jesus Christ! But anyways, I think that battle field 3 should just have 2 separate disks, One For Multiplayer and one for campaign, It would make the game Kick the **** **** out of Cod for Multiplayer.there would be so much more room for guns and ****.

XxBig_D_FreshxX Honestly, does anyone know a game that has actually BENEFITED from a downgrade? This is rediculous if you're a console gamer. Is this game not even going to run 1080p? Ok, so 30FPS isn't a big deal. It's the overall concept of the downgrade on console that's bugging me.
Im a console gamer myself but i dont think that they shud downgrade the pc version just because consoles are 5 years behind on hardware, if developers want to make a game huge and amazing for pc, they shud because then it makes microsoft and sony start losing sales to people who are buying better pc's instead of console because consoles cant support the huge and amazing games, so then they will make a bigger and better console for us sooner because people start complaining about not being able to afford a pc to play the huge and amazing games.
idk if u understand wat im saying but i tried my best to explain lol
