Next Gen Consoling are going to see 64 players on a multiplayer

[BIGPADDY]

Hi all

Well as you know battlefield 4 will be having 64 player on the multiplayer which will be excellent for both next gens console!

However why couldn't they do this with battlefield 3 for PS3 and Xbox 360, by my understanding the server supports all the players who join the game. I wouldn't either mind if it was even 32 player online.

So if anyone can answer it would be appreciated, do you think 64 players online should have been or could have been implemented with the last gen consoles?

I think I heard in one of the E3 videos that they were limited by the hardware in that they couldn't have rendered that many players while maintaining the high fidelity graphics at a decent frame rate. Can't remember if that is correct sorry. I wish I could rememer the video to link it for you.

PS4 is actually getting a lot more than 64... only cos they are bringing Planetside 2 over

So epic battles in that game with hundreds of people fighting

The map huge on Planetside 2, I think it took 10 to 20 mins for me to find someone and then die.

I get that when playing 64 player maps like Karkand in BF3. I am terrible at that game lol
