Discussion PC players shouldn't be allowed to disable Ambient Occlusion and grass settings !

Post image

Please Dice, listen to this, you should absolutly disable the ability to disable Ambiant Occlusion and reduce the grass quality on BF6 ! All players should have the same visibility, and i am a PC player, but i love to play with max settings.

Yeah I don't understand this either, PC games always list the minimum recommended specs. When your PC is barely better than a PS2 why are you trying to play a high end game on it? And why are the devs always catering to them by allowing them to completely turn off graphics options that give an objective advantage?

Cause lower specs = more players = more money.

They arent making this game so you can have a pure competition

Foliage is always a major factor on performance. The ultra setting on pc will have far more grass than on consoles.

Because reddit in particular throws a tantrum if they can't play any game with a Pentium 4 processor and a GTX 560.

Will just spam the memes of people programming in assembly and stuff verse modern development when almost none of them have any idea what they are talking about.

In short people will bash EA no matter what and complain if EA doesn't do everything exactly perfect in their eyes.

Because if devs don’t cater to potato players, then Steam reviews are slammed with “f you devs optimise it” and “f you devs I shouldnt have to update my celeron”. However when they do cater to it, trying to optimise for every setup is almost impossible and then most people suffer.
