Battlefield 1's beta is now available on PC and consoles, here are some PC Ultra videos. Note that the stream being limited to 1080p60 and stereo audio, you can download the files to enjoy 1440p and 5.1 audio.
Having played the beta on Xbox One yesterday this is naturally quite a big difference. Especially in regards to image quality. I guess we'll get that on Neo and Scorpio then. Still...for 720p on Xbox One it really isn't too bad.

You prankster...
Gonna try it today to see if I like it, while I'm not into competitive multiplayer, the setting is very interesting and the trailers were great.
Hopefully I won't get killed so much that I end up not having any fun with it, which may happen since many people played the closed alpha and had a 1 day head start in the open beta already.
PS. Why don't people at Gamersyde make a GSY team?
Just an idea.

Because they argue even in a comment section. Imagine to make such people work in a team in a BF game. Imposible! :-D..........just kidding. Interesting idea BTW.
Yeah, I was disappointed at how the xbox one looked. I know in the past with either bf3 or 4 the game improved over the beta. But there was just a vibrancy missing and I'm only comparing it to there other console outings. The PC is in another league. There are a lot of nice improvements to the game world. Everything feels more solid but I think BF4 and Battlefronts image looks better.
Here's sth to complain about: http://www.gamersyde.com/pop_images_battlefield_1-...
Remember the time when every pc player would go apeshit because of "WTF blurry textures" ? *nose to wall* :DDD
Well, looks good anyway i guess.
This isn't far from the truth :D I think there are a few cliques here that do play with one another. I play games (including Battlefield) with a couple Gamersyders. It's also a world-wide community, which makes playing with one another troublesome at times. I was into the idea of a Discord server for Gamersyde users.. but I'm not sure the comradery is there or that we should be pulling community away from the website.

Maybe it would work, who knows. Only thing I know, is that I'm not a team player. I usually have better results as an individual, than a member of the team.

How tall are you? That's some stunning reach.
Depends. In metric or in retard units ?
I was wondering if that syringe is the equivalent to BF4's defib (like in Wolfenstein) and how many times you could revive other players. Is there a limit to it ?
There are a lot of custom options on ps4 like fov and motion blur sliders but i wish there was a deadzone option. The aiming feels a bit sluggish to me. In Titanfall you could have zero deadzone for example

Wasn't this just remain of DOF effect? Maybe I just understood to your comment wrong. In that case, never mind.
Didn't notice any DOF in that particular scene. Shot was taken just before he zooms into iron sight view. But yea... Not been meaning to complain in any way. I like what i see. :)
Theoretically 4k would be possible even on a ps4 if it supported 4k ofcourse but obviously with very downgraded visuals. Ps4 neo absolutely can do 4k but personally i would much rather prefer 1080p 60fps with better visuals than just a 4k version running at 30fps at best (If the visuals would stay the same from ps4)
Theoretically the very first Xbox can do 1080i resolution too, so what does that mean for the games ? Not much really. Don't let yourselves get fooled by sheer theoretical numbers. Uuuh... 6TFLOPs... 320GB/s... must be awesome then, right ? *PS3 flashback intensifies* I'll believe it when I actually see it.

I don't think you're getting 1440p/60 fps on Scorpio and Neo.
Even though MS keeps stressing that they will deliver true 4K gaming? Could of course be that mostly their own games like Forza and Halo will be in 4K.

If ya think BF1 is going to run at 4K/60fps on Scorpio... your expectations are probably too high.
Played a fair few games of conquest and a few games of rush and something is lacking. I don't know if its the simplicity of the weapons or the openness of the map but it lacks that frantic pace I associate with the franchise. I guess I got used to soldiers shouting, gunfire going off all over, avoiding tanks and exchanging rocket fire. My expereince of BF1 so far has mainly been one on one encounters on foot usually shooting guys in the back...its not got that panic filled excitement. But as I say. It may be the map. I've never been a huge fan of the big open maps at the best of times and this is largely an open expense of sand :/ it looks nice though and I like the train gimmick but I hope they do another open beta involving a map that's a bit more urban.

Commented on 2016-08-31 21:11:17They might get their 64 player, 60 FPS games up to 1080p.
I'd rather play Battlefield on a 486 than use a gamepad.
