Games will always down play reqs. My assumption, there will be plenty of room for legacy gaming pcs (with the right settings) and probably buggy at best for the newest hardware. With internet speeds being better than they have ping will always play a factor it how your machine handles MP. Decent setup with a good broadband speed will be the sweet spot. ---

considering they have the same rendering system as battlefront i would suggest the same or very close to the requirements of battlefront ---

You saw the system requirements for Mirrors Edge which is also a newer version so something around that might be a good guess. Only time will tell 🙂 ---

I suspect that it would be something similiar to the Battlefront&Mirror’s Edge requirements. ---

My setup with an i5 4690K and a GTX 970 is feeling a bit on the edge now. Games evolve so fast! Also Nvidia just announced their new generation cards. ---

You saw the system requirements for Mirrors Edge which is also a newer version so something around that might be a good guess. Only time will tell 🙂 Mirror’s Edge is running Frostbite 3, same as Battlefield 4. Reading other people’s thoughts about Frostbite and BF1, it seemes BF1 will run on Frostbite 3, too. I’m no expert on the topic, though. Can anyone confirm what Frostbite version will be used? ---

> @Cryphisss said: > I suspect that it would be something similiar to the Battlefront&Mirror’s Edge requirements. Yeah exactly. Battlefront and Battlefield 1 is running on the same engine(Frostbyte) - also their graphics does look a lot similar. 🙂 OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or later, Processor (Intel): Intel i3 6300T or equivalent, Memory: 8GB RAM, Hard Drive: At least 40 GB of free space, Graphics card (NVIDIA): nVidia GeForce GTX 660 2GB, Graphics card (ATI): ATI Radeon HD 7850 2GB As a minimum wouldn’t be too of charts, this is of course a build with everything on the lowest settings. 😉 ---

Just because 2 games both use the Frostbite 3 engine that doesn’t mean they share the exact same system requirements. There are several versions of the engine. For simplicity lets imagine that that BF4 uses the 3.0 version of the engine, then Hardline use an upgraded 3.1 engine, Battlefront 3.2 and Mirror’s Edge Catalyst and BF1/5 will use 3.3. Considering this the system requirements of BF1/5 might be closer to Mirrors Edge which is: MINIMUM: • OS: Windows® 7 64-Bit (use the latest Service Pack) • CPU: Intel i3-3250 / AMD FX-6350. (Note: Mirror’s Edge Catalyst requires at least 4 logical cores to run.) • RAM: 6 GB • HARD DRIVE: At least 25 GB of free space • VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 650 Ti 2GB or better / AMD Radeon™ R9 270x or better • INPUT: Keyboard and mouse, dual analog controller RECOMMENDED: • OS: Windows® 10 64-Bit (use the latest Service Pack) • CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 at 3.4 GHz / AMD FX-8350 at 4.0 GHz • RAM: 16 GB • HARD DRIVE: At least 25 GB of free space • VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 970 4GB or better / AMD Radeon™ R9 280x 3GB or better • INPUT: Keyboard and mouse, dual analog controller There’s several other factors that come into play though. 1. which features of the Frostbite engine the developers actually use. 2. How well the game is optimized. Which technology the developers add to the game which isn’t originally a part of Frostbite. 4. How much stuff they want on screen and how pretty they want to make it. So, my guess will be that it’s a bit higher than Battlefront. But since Mirrors Edge is a completely different type of game it might not be as high as that, or it might be even higher. But 4 quite fast CPU cores and 6/8GB of ram and at least a midrange graphics card is probably a safe bet. for a minimum atm. We will see 🙂 ---

5-10% higher than previous title i’d guess at :3 ---

As Poolshark said something similiar to Battlefront, I do expect even Mirror’s Edge Catalyst. ---

It has not yet been officialy announced. My guesses would be something similiar to Battlefront and Mirror’s Edge Catalyst’s system requirements. ---
