Let’s hope this runs as smooth as Battlefront 🙂
mmm. nice. I hope:
1.-they are true.
2.-more developers/publishers start explaining what do they mean with “minimum” “recommended” and “ultra”. nice, ea. here, a happy face: 🙂
I like how they say what the recommended and minimum requirements will play it at. More devs should do that. People seem to have wild opinions about what it means
More developers should start giving these XBox One settings requirements, and then the PC requirements for 1080p60. Nicde touch.
F*cking finally, a more descriptive sys req! 😀
GTX 760 60+ on Ultra with 2x MSAA thats freaking amazing bro
I’m not your bro, pal!
lol
Godamnit you are supposed to follow the joke!
And it supports wheels, included my beloved G27. That’s very nice! 😉
why the G27 and not the g25 cmonnnnnnnn ffs
are they serious?
only high settings so thats maxed out?
ok if that is maxed for 60+ its ok if not i will sell my PC next day and get a nintendo 64 and with the rest of the money a car!
ohh wait its like star wars battlefront again.
they say GTX 970 for high and people were playing GTX 760 on Ultra 60+
sorry
lol I was playing battlefront with a GT730 and medium settings at 60fps
Call me when this games $20
Me 15
funny how the 970 is ALWAYS the recommended system requirement or 1080p/60fps..lol.
im thinking another bad optimized game here if a 970 is just for 1080p..so a %330 970 and a $224 i5-4690 just to play 1080p/60.thats a $800 pc just to play 1080p /60 on high?ill take the 1080p/30 console version…lol
pay $800 for 30 extra fps no thx.
and thats wht the master cant afford games and bit*c about season passes and paying full price of $60 for games…lolits like a rich guy buying a porsche and bitc*hing hoe expensive insurance is…lol
a gtx 760 will handle this game 1080p Ultra 60+ FPS !
So stay chill @H@disqus_6Putk03FJ1:disqus
when the requirements say that then ill believe that.maybe we will get revised requirements down the road.
Battlefront said the same and my old GTX 680 did a hell of a job on Ultra max 1080p 80+ FPS
a card from 2011
and it will do the same job in the new nfs
Jesus Christ kid,you re more hype for this game than any1 i saw lately for a EA Game.
yes i am becasue i still play underground 2 in 4K 120 FPS and i love every minute spent in that game!
Thats cool,but better watch reviews about this game first.It just a fake copy of that one.

John can you please let this video for Hvd to see how a game that ask for GTX 970 runs on a old GTX 680 from 2011
Thanks bro
Why you keep visiting this site if you only play on consoles?
Just finished the free version of NFS most wanted…let’s hope is better than that :P. For a free game was more than fine but for a 50€ game, no way xD
a gtx 760 will do Ultra-high 2x MSAA easy on 60+ 1080p the same was with Battlefront
How can you not understand that running on the same engine does not mean identical performance? There’s a lot more on screen detail here. Most Battlefront maps are quite simplistic.
it must if not 99% of PCgamers will not buy this game
I don’t think NFS uses photogrammetry. That alone helped Battlefront alot with the performance.
so 1440p is a no go?
If this is true then the requirements are pretty high.
