Developer DICE has also dished on details for the PC version, like how it’ll support DX9, 10 and 11. Also ”proper support” for Nvidia 3D Vision.
”We’ve had numerous requests to go through in more detail about what kind of graphical features & options that exists in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 for the PC. So this is an attempt at just that,” blogged DICE’s Johan Andersson, reports Eurogamer.
”Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is based on Frostbite 1.5, but with multiple enhancements and a lot of specific effort spent on building it up and for the PC as this is the first time Frostbite is used on PC.” It supports all the DirectX gens, including 11 when it’s time.
”For everyone with the new generation of graphics card, like the AMD Radeon 5xxx series or the upcoming Nvidia Geforce 4xx, we’ve also added support for DirectX 11. The primary uses of DX11 in Bad Company 2 is to soften all the dynamic shadows as well as to improve performance in general with a few smaller DX11 optimizations that we are using.”
Bad Company 2 will also fully support AMD Eyefinity for crazy things like 3 to 6 monitors hooked up for super views of the game. The dev team has also been ”working together with engineers from Nvidia” for some decent 3D Vision support.
”This support is not enabled in the beta but it will be included in a patch shortly after the release of the retail game,” said Andersson of BC2’s 3D visuals.
