Star Wars Battlefront many many games in history have a massive trail of controversy follow them but this one has been one hell of a doozy with IGN flipping back and forth between loving it and hating it and the rest of the internet that not being entirely positive it's been one hell of a ride the beta is here now so how does it stack up well this is the wrong channel for a review but stay tuned to see how it performs and stay subscribed if you're interested in more of these game benchmarking videos this holiday season intel brings ddr4 to the mainstream with their new core i7 6700 K and Core i5 6600 K processors check the link in the video description to learn more the surprisingly smooth experience of playing battlefield was nice I must say I was half-expecting 60 or even worse 30fps frame cap but it never came battlefront was actually running very well the whole time I felt like I'd been transported to another world or something and this is why we decided to benchmark the game despite it being in beta so yes as I just said the game is in beta but the release date is coming up very soon November 16th to be exact and due to its performance being singly pretty well tuned I kind of thought that we could give you guys some insight into the potential performance of this game so without further ado this is how I benchmarked it this benchmark will be conducted on survival Tatooine the reason for this is that this is a predominantly multiplayer game but multiplayer games are very rough too benchmarks we want to do a single-player segment that being said this single-player segment isn't that amazing or consistent skip this cutscene by the way but it's better than multiplayer I do recommend running it about three times just to get a good score though wait for Admiral Ackbar to finish talking and kind of line yourself up with this particular pathway that should be basically right in front of you once Admiral Ackbar is done talking you'll see the kind of pie circle thing at the top right when that's finished right when wave 1 begins start your benchmark and start running forward you'll see in the top kind of middle to the left area there's a timer that should actually perfectly line up with your benchmark so when that hits two minutes your benchmark should and follow this pathway up into the right down there where I was looking they might spawn from there they might also spawn from up here they happen to spawn behind me this time if they're not directly in your shooting path do not shoot at them so don't turn around to kill them just follow this path up into the right and then curve around the corner to the right again up into the left sorry and then cover around the corner to the right one thing that I'm going to take time to talk about during this segment is that the game looks actually kind of really good I like the amount of debris that's around that's one thing that I appreciate it a lot the rocks that are everywhere you'll see as we're walking up here at the rock kind of fall down and looks actually pretty realistic it makes it feel like a more full environment and I actually like that a lot take the right side up here when you get up to this corner they might start shooting at you they might not depends on where they are but don't shoot at them pretty much no matter where they are this ramp don't go down the ramp go on the right side but then kind of run off the ledge directly in front of you land on the half ledge and then fall all the way down run to the end of this elevated path go on the right side of the rock structure and then as you're going on the right side turn to the left and fall off the side run up the ramp here again this is the same ramp that we're running up near the beginning but now they're going to be in front of you if you didn't kill them at the beginning and you're gonna want to kill them here if you do clear the whole wave wave two will spawn but that is okay if you don't clear the whole wave like there I left one enemy left alive they won't spawn and you're totally fine go along the same path that you went along before and then you're basically just gonna run this until the benchmark ends so as you can see in the top left-hand corner I've got about 15 seconds left and that should mean that the benchmark will probably end right on the corner up here now for graphics cards our NVIDIA product stack is pretty self-explanatory but the AMD lineup seems a little long Co our Fury is out for replacement if you check out this graphic from kit GRU we do have a pretty good representation of their product stack but not perfect kind of close but oh well for bond era we have a 260 X which will actually perform slightly better than the 360 for Pitcairn we unfortunately don't have a proper replacement because we don't have a 265 but we just kind of slotted our 270 in there for good measure our 285 is a fairly strong representation of the Tonga category but its main drawback is the two gigs of VRAM versus four and then for Hawaii we have both the old but crazy value r9 290 and the fancy new 390 X and then to cap things off as best as we could we have the tiny little Fury nano so yeah admittedly not perfect but hopefully an okay representation of what the Red Team had to offer and what was impressive though and it actually pertains to this video properly is that even cards like the 750 Ti and 260 X which are like a hundred bucks and change on newegg.com we're both able to run the game at 1080p with ultra settings at over 30 FPS drop those settings just a little bit or jump up to something like the 960 or 285 and you've got a really solid gaming experience for really cheap in conclusion for a pretty damn attractive looking game battlefront actually runs pretty smooth on a variety of setups and I never ran into any major issues feels weird to say it but good job' a battle nation is the place where you interact with other enthusiasts and vote on
