How much amount of load go into de CPU? I hope CoreX can support this load of cpu
GPU takes more load as a CPU?

Perphaps EA and DICE, made the game with low frequency because servers cost less and players with not enought computers can play, so EA can sell more games. What do you think?

And this is why they fail every time. They don't make a product that lasts. Just look at CS:GO. It's flourishing with new talent. Mod support and listening to the community(sort-of), is what keeps any game alive. If BF3 was developed primarily for PC with mod support, then that game would probably have the biggest player base compared to other AAA titles. Juts imagine, you buy one $60 game, but with mods, the game can transform into anything! Many would buy the game for just the mods alone.

Am I dreaming?
I didn't expect this to be done (so quick). Now I'm really excited to start playing VU.

This is fantastic NoFaTe!

P.s. It's nice to see familiar faces here. :D

They don't want the game to last.
BF and CoD series are made so that you buy it, you get tired of it, and then you buy the next one.
Modding will make the game last longer, and that might reduce the need to buy something new. Allowing users to create maps means not selling DLC maps.
It'$ all about that thing what w€ know...

If you're playing with "HFR" enabled, so are all your enemies, because you can only join servers with the same settings as your client.
That's why the game asks you to restart when trying to join an "incompatible" server.

Well then I hope slower tickrate servers will be completely disabled in the future. Of course after NoFaTe figures out how to reduce the bandwidth by about a half.

It's kinda not possible to reduce the the bandwidth... You can even increase it by enabling another Feature of VU iirc!

All I can say is I am glad we have unlimited bandwidth on our server. I will def run the HFR mode once we are able to go online. :)

I am so psyched for this...

With BUILD 8389 the -highfreq launch parameter doesn't work anymore. There are now two different launch parameters: -high60 and -high120 (respectively for 60Hz and 120Hz).

Can we get an update on this? Like what is running 120 hz? Is this basically the same thing they are testing in BF4 CTE, is it just as good? Seems to be little official information about this.
