Im guessing EA looked at the numbers for PC players of FIFA on PC, and therefore all that potential UT cash and didn't think it was worth it. An FPS on PC is a different beast all together and they wouldnt want to be missing out on those sales.
To be honest, I've never seen a bf game running on a beast PC with ultra on all settings. I'd always imagined that the HD would nearly match the trailer quality on a very high end machine. what spec machine do they use to capture the trailer content?
- @lzilchetlIt is not possible to get the trailer level quality in a multiplayer match. The reveal trailer was rendered in the game engine but it was not real-time, it would have taken hours/days to render the 5-minute trailer.
That being said, I'm hopeful the graphics of 2042 will still be great and much better than what we saw in pre-alpha gameplay, since pre-alpha playtests usually use downscaled textures and reduced environment quality for more focus on the gameplay aspect. Performance and quality are important but they come after finalizing the gameplay.
