00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:05.879
Star Wars Battlefront many many games in

00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:10.400
history have a massive trail of controversy follow them but this one has

00:00:08.040 --> 00:00:13.599
been one hell of a doozy with IGN flipping back and forth between loving

00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:19.039
it and hating it and the rest of the internet H not being entirely positive

00:00:16.880 --> 00:00:23.199
it's been one hell of a ride the beta is here now so how does it stack up well

00:00:21.080 --> 00:00:26.800
this is the wrong channel for a review but stay tuned to see how it performs

00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:39.360
and stay subscribed if you're interested in more of these game benchmarking videos this holiday season

00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:46.840
Intel brings ddr4 to the mainstream with their new core i7 6700 K and core

00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:50.559
i56600k processors check the link in the video description to learn more the

00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:56.199
surprisingly smooth experience of playing Battlefield was nice I must say

00:00:53.480 --> 00:01:00.680
I was half expecting 60 or even worse 30 FPS frame cap but it never came

00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:04.839
Battlefront was actually running very well the whole time I felt like I'd been

00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:09.200
transported to another world or something and this is why we decided to

00:01:07.479 --> 00:01:13.840
Benchmark the game despite it being in beta so yes as I just said the game is

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:17.960
in beta but the release date is coming up very soon November 16th to be exact

00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:22.720
and due to its performance being seemingly pretty well tuned I kind of

00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:26.560
thought that we could give you guys some insight into the potential performance

00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:31.680
of this game so without further Ado this is how I benchmarked it this Benchmark

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:36.079
will be conducted on survival Tatooine the reason for this is that this is a

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:39.439
predominantly multiplayer game but multiplayer games are very rough to

00:01:38.119 --> 00:01:45.040
benchmarks so we wanted to do a single player segment that being said this single player segment isn't that amazing

00:01:42.720 --> 00:01:49.200
or consistent skip this cut scene by the way um but it's better than multiplayer

00:01:47.759 --> 00:01:53.640
I do recommend running it about three times just to get a good score though

00:01:51.399 --> 00:01:57.640
wait for Admiral abar to finish talking and kind of line yourself up with this

00:01:56.119 --> 00:02:01.119
particular pathway that should be basically right in front of you once

00:01:59.479 --> 00:02:04.119
Admiral black bar is done talking you'll see the kind of pie circle thing at the

00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:07.399
top right when that's finished right when wave one begins start your

00:02:06.039 --> 00:02:11.480
benchmark and start running forward you'll see in the top kind of middle to

00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:14.680
the left area there's a timer that should actually perfectly line up with

00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:18.480
your benchmark so when that hits 2 minutes your benchmark should end follow

00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:22.840
this pathway up into the right down there where I was looking they might Spawn from there they might also Spawn

00:02:21.040 --> 00:02:27.440
from up here they happen to spawn behind me this time if they're not directly in

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:31.480
your shooting path do not shoot at them so don't turn around to kill them uh

00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:35.440
just follow this path up into the right and then curve around the corner to the

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:40.120
right again up into the left sorry and then curve around the corner to the right um one thing that I'm going to

00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:44.959
take time to talk about during this segment is that the game looks actually

00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:48.440
kind of really good I like the amount of debris that's around that's one thing

00:02:46.720 --> 00:02:51.120
that I appreciate a lot the rocks that are everywhere you'll see as we're

00:02:49.760 --> 00:02:55.360
walking up here the rock kind of falls down and looks actually pretty realistic

00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:59.480
it makes it feel like a more full environment and I actually like that a

00:02:56.840 --> 00:03:04.120
lot take the right side up here when you get up up to this corner um they might

00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:09.239
start shooting at you they might not depends on where they are but don't shoot at them pretty much no matter

00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:12.840
where they are this ramp don't go down the ramp go on the right side but then

00:03:10.920 --> 00:03:17.159
kind of run off the ledge directly in front of you land on the half ledge and

00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:21.560
then fall all the way down run to the end of this elevated path go on the

00:03:19.760 --> 00:03:25.239
right side of the rock structure and then as you're going on the right side

00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:29.120
turn to the left and fall off the side run up the ramp here again this is the

00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:32.159
same ramp that we're running up near the beginning but now they're going to be in

00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:38.120
front of you if you didn't kill them at the beginning and you're going to want to kill them here if you do clear the

00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:41.799
whole wave wave two will spawn but that is okay if you don't clear the whole

00:03:39.920 --> 00:03:45.959
wave like there I left one enemy left alive uh they won't spawn and you're

00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:49.599
totally fine go along the same path that you went along before and then you're

00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:55.400
basically just going to run this until the Benchmark ends so as you can see in the top left hand corner I've got about

00:03:52.959 --> 00:04:00.159
15 seconds left and that should mean that the Benchmark will probably end

00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:04.640
right on the corner up here now now for graphics cards our NVIDIA product stack

00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:09.400
is pretty self-explanatory but the AMD lineup seems a little wonko our Fury is

00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:13.079
out for replacement if you check out this graphic from kit Gru we do have a

00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:17.280
pretty good representation of their product stack but not perfect kind of

00:04:15.079 --> 00:04:21.680
close but oh well for boner we have a 260x which will actually perform

00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:27.120
slightly better than the 360 for pit Kar we unfortunately don't have a proper

00:04:23.919 --> 00:04:29.160
replacement because we don't have a 265

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:33.400
but we just kind of slotted our 270 in there for good measure our 285 is a

00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:38.840
fairly strong representation of the Tonga category but its main drawback is

00:04:36.080 --> 00:04:44.800
the 2 gigs of vram versus 4 and then for Hawaii we have both the old but crazy

00:04:40.960 --> 00:04:46.680
value R9 290 and the fancy new 390x and

00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:51.400
then to cap things off as best as we could we have the tiny little fury Nano

00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:54.919
so yeah admittedly not perfect but hopefully an okay representation of what

00:04:52.960 --> 00:04:58.360
the red team had to offer and what was impressive though and it actually

00:04:56.080 --> 00:05:03.720
pertains to this video properly is that even cards like the 750 TI and 260x

00:05:01.520 --> 00:05:08.520
which are like 100 bucks in change on newegg.com were both able to run the

00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:12.919
game at 1080p with ultra settings at over 30 FPS drop those settings just a

00:05:11.440 --> 00:05:19.319
little bit or jump up to something like the 960 or 285 and you've got a really

00:05:16.520 --> 00:05:22.680
solid gaming experience for really cheap in conclusion for a pretty damn

00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:27.840
attractive looking game Battlefront actually runs pretty smooth on a variety

00:05:24.840 --> 00:05:30.400
of setups and I never ran into any major

00:05:27.840 --> 00:05:34.280
issues feels weird to say it but good job EA battle nation is the place where
