BATTLEFIELD 1 IN REAL LIFE



How would have World War 1 soldiers reacted to Battlefield 1?
Yesterday, the YouTube channel, The Warp Zone uploaded a very interesting video called "Battlefield 1 In Real Life". The video, that has been made for entertainment purposes depicts two soldiers discussing how the Great War would be remembered 100 years from now. Although the video has been made for entertainment, it does make you wonder how soldiers would have actually reacted to the game if they were alive today.
Although Battlefield 1 is a game and is made to entertain people, the game itself doesn't give an accurate representation of World War 1 and with great reason. World War 1 was the bloodiest war in history, with over nine million soldiers and seven million civilians being killed. In addition to the deaths, over 7 million people were permanently disabled and a further 15 million were seriously injured.

The chip in question is the Core i9-7900X. While it is the least expensive model in the Core i9 family, it still costs a hefty $999. What users get return in a 10-core processor with Hyper Threading support and 13.75MB of L3 cache. At stock clocks, the Core i9-7900X has a base clockspeed of 3.3GHz, which can ramp up to 4.3GHz via Turbo Boost 2.0 and 4.5GHz via Turbo Boost Max 3.0. A well known overclocker who goes by the online handle Elmor managed to push the processor past the 5....

EA says all its games are developed for high-end PCs first

Blake Jorgensen says EA studios develop for the most powerful systems, and then scale back for consoles. It's still fairly common for PC to get average ports of console-targeted blockbuster titles, but according to Electronic Arts' CFO, it may be the other way around for his publisher's studios. Speaking at the UBS Global Technology Conference, Blake Jorgensen said the company aims for the highest spec PC, and then scales back accordingly for consoles. The question arose during a discussion about the company's flexibility when it comes to console cycles. Moving all of its games to the Frostbite Engine has meant that dramatic upgrades only need to happen for one engine, rather than "25", according to Jorgensen.  In any case, he believes Microsoft and Sony are moving towards more iterative hardware upgrades anyway, and that backwards compatibility between these iterations will stop games dying at retail, thus making investing in games less risky.
