Battlefield 1 is so, so well optimized

[EnergyEclipse]

Hello just a quick discovery I made

I have no GPU as of the moment, just my plain old integrated HD Intel® HD Graphics 4600

 

BUT I CAN PLAY BATTLEFIELD 1, LOW SETTINGS 2560 x 1440 50% RES AND OH DAMN IS IT SMOOTH

 

If for some reason you want to play Battlefield 1 without spending a fortune, literally just go and buy an i7 4790 I don't think in all the years I've been fiddling with hardware I'd be so shocked at how damn well Integrated graphics actually can be in modern, full on games. Considering the resolution as well the game looks incredible!

yeah graphics are great but it was a shame the story was so short though

Why would you do 50% res at 1440 instead of just doing 1080?

Yeah I know right. High settings with i5 8400 and a GTX 970 and seeing drops to as low as 45 fps in 64 player matches. Damn that optimization ?

Literally no context...... worthless comment. 

 

Most EA games are optimized quite well compared to other AAA publishers.

I'm a little shocked that the HD 4600 can even play Battlefield 1 at what's basically 720p.
