I'll definitely be playing.

What platform are people going for? I have a ps3 with on 40" Sony (3D) LCD LED and a good PC ([email protected]/6gb Ram/GTX 470 and twin 24" Samsung LED LCD).

I have been playing BF2 and MW/MW2 on the PS3 previously, but Im wondering if I should make the switch to PC instead =/

What sort of graphics card do you guys think it would take to handle BF3 on high/max settings? currently have an intel i7 2.67ghz cpu, 6gb ram (computer seems to recognize only 4gb??),ATI hd4890 graphics card, some gigabyte motherboard. dont know too much about computers.

The reason your computer is only reading 4gb ram is because you're running 32-bit Windows. You'll need 64-bit to make use of the 6gb you have

no kidding? its been pissing me off for years thinking i got ripped off

It was pissing me off too, having the pc recognize only 4th of ram. Time to grab that 64 bit version of windows.

The maximum amount of ram is actually theoretical:

2^32 = 4,294,967,296 ~ 4gb

2^64 = 1.844674407371e+19 ~ 18.4 billion gb

That's right, if we had unlimited ram space for our pc, we could theoretically have a maximum memory of just over 18 billion gb......... WTF?!?

Definitely need windows 7 x64 bit, otherwise you will only see even less than 4gb of ram.

Anyway, I'm thinking 6950 as a minimum for bf3 at 1920x1080.

anything less than that and you won't get absolute maximum.

They are making a new engine for this sure, but as if it won't get made properly which means even the slightly lesser than the highest hardware should make do just fine.

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.

      No. Only for a standard ECU with/without Nistune. Standalone has no need for it. That's like the 3rd time I've said so.   And as to that sensor linked - yes, it does look like it would be the right one. I've never bothered to see how available they were - just assumed that they'd be hard to find. I think I'd be planning to go Link ECU rather than buy sensors I don't actually want to make Nistune work, if I did not already have Nistune. As you do not already have Nistune, you should realy consider your options.
