Should I purchase BF4 without the recommended specs on my PC

Battlefield 4 General Discussion
1

I have used canirunit to determine if my computer would be able to run the game. The results said that my computer met the minimum requirements for the game however it was below the recommended specs… should I buy the game or will it bee to laggy and be unplayable?

2

canirunit is unreliable to say the least. If you post your specs I can see if it would be probable. Usually you can run a game with maybe one generation previous or slight hardware shortcomings, however game play will be choppy and un-detailed. Again post your specs and I can help you.

I’d go ahead and tell you not to purchase the game with those specs.

No problem! But I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it looks like your you will suffer greatly playing it. It will be unplayable by most standards, and even so it won’t be fun. So long and short of it is, don’t buy the game. Sorry!, I know this is disappointing haha, same thing happened for me during bf3 release. Best of luck and I hope you find another way to battlefield on!

To be fair tho, its pretty much unplayabe regardless of PC specs at the moment

6

True true, I hope dice/ea will get it fixed ASAP. BF3 is looking real nice atm.

I have the same question. On “can i run it”, it put me half way past minimum to recommended. specs:

AMD 6 core processor

Sapphire 7870 2gb gigahertz edition OC

8 gigs ram

win 7 ultimate

also my pc tower is black if that helps

8

Should be able to run it at acceptable frames at low settings, whats the clock speed on the CPU?

9

4 GHz

10

Should be fine, easily

11

just on low settings though? that makes me sad lol. Just got this new pc. although on the cheap for 500 from a homie

12

You could do better than low for sure. Maybe some stuff on high and the more intensive stuff on low/medium. Also depends on the resolution you’ll be playing on.

14
