BF4 March 26th Unveiling.

GPUXPert

BF4 is currently rumored to be revealed during the EA press event in March the 26th, now this isn't the exciting news.

The exciting news is that AMD just tweeted these two teasers .

"What do GPU compute performance and the latest DirectX 11 games have in common? Find out soon!"

"Today’s lucky number is “8.†Are you ready? Do you have any guesses?"

AMD has been working very closely with EA on Crysis 3 for AMD CPU & GPU optimizations as well as advanced SMAA anti aliasing which utilizes AMD's advanced MLAA technology along with high quality alpha to coverage HDAO settings and a bunch of other goodies including AMD CPU optimizations.

There is no doubt that AMD has also been working with the developers on Battlefield 4 , and the teasers sent out today by AMD indicate native 8 core support along with high compute utilization for things like particle physics and destructible objects.

Stay tuned, AMD 7000 series owners are up for a hell of a ride.

With the announcement of micro-transactions and the huge DRM fiasco that happened with SimCity I'll just be staying on BF3 and not buying BF4 unless it's THAT amazing

now if only amd chipsets supported pcie 3.0 and they fixed that darn ipc issue.
Gotta love AMD's logic. "We were the first to release 28nm GPU's and PCI-E3.0 GPU's, yet our other AMD Hardware do not support it!"

I'm not hating on AMD. They are good if your going on a budget.

Having PCIe 3.0 doesn't really matter, no cards out there are bottlenecked by PCIe 2.0

Even though I only have a quad core, I really hope that games start to take advantage of more cores. I plan on upgrading my processor in a year or two so it would be nice to get a processor with 8 (or more...?) cores to really step up the game in terms of enemy AI, physics, and other fun stuff like that. I suppose we'll just have to see how well developers take advantage of using more cores or if there will only be a few select games that use more than 4 cores.

Track record suggests that BF4 will not be an AMD Gaming Evolved title or whatever its called, just like we saw with BF3 and BFBC2, DICE will work with both AMD and NVIDIA very closely to get the most out of BF4 and their cards.

Here we go, another FPS franchise hits the assembly-line model. Get ready for a new Battlefield every 2-3 years like CoD.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

After the resignation of EA's CEO, I'm not so sure this trend will continue, people have had enough of these huge publishers pumping out mediocre games.

If this trend continues, people will just end up spending their money on Kickstarter game projects.

That's bad for big publishers like EA & they know it. All I'm trying to say is that I'm hopeful .

Sweet! Can't wait! Hope they will integrate Nvidia Physx.
You want AMD to integrate a competitor's proprietary physics engine in their supported game? -_- After they stated exciting news concerning GPU Compute ? -_- Which is what they use for their own physics simulations? "FACEPALM"

I think we're being a little hasty with what we can squeeze out of our current gen cards. I'll be waiting for a newer series before I get excited.

Sorry, I meant "only" in the sense that I wouldn't get any benefit from having the game threaded for more than 4 cores. I didn't quite mean for my post to seem so pretentious.

Cod (Children's Online Daycare) shits out a game every year. Hence why their games suck so much. 2-3 years is a lot of development time compared to cod. As much as I hate EA and they're known to fuck things up, I know that BF4 will at least be enjoyable, and the BF series will never droop below cod.

There were two separate developers for CoD Infiniti Ward (or what's left of it) & Treyarch, so they actually had 2 years to develop each game, which is no where near enough to make a great game, and that's why their single player campaigns were so short & their multiplayer experiences were almost the same.

Not really defending CoD, but you got something wrong. The games are developed on an engine that has been around for a long time. Also, they alternate studios so each studio as ~2 years to develop a game.

PCIe 3.0 helps in XFire/SLI
