Treyarch – Battlefield 3 Is “Visually Stunning”

Ah, the good ole times when honesty was the rule of the day. Will we ever see that attitude return? No. Plain and simple. What you should expect, though, is the occasional admittance by a competing group that what the competition brings to the table is good stuff.

In Treyarch’s Josh Olin’s case, his admittance was “Battlefield 3 is visually stunning.”

That’s what he said at PAX East while speaking to HipHopGamer, before he added their engine own engine could be upgraded that Frosbite 2′s level.

“It’s visually stunning,” he said.

Adding: “Irrespective of what anybody else does we always need to be elevating that quality bar – we need to be ratcheting the bar up. So our engine is very very light weight, versatile – and it’s something that our team is really experienced with.

And so the engine’s really good, it’s a very powerful engine and we could layer in an update those things if we wanted to. Like World At War we really blew out the fire technology.”

Olin also said that they’re working on releasing more DLC for Black Ops following the successful release of the first batch dubbed First Strike.

    sure their engine can be updated to do what frostbite 2 does.
    they probably can, but id be like trying to make a 20 year old lotus elise faster then a Ferrari enzo.
    sure you could add beefier turbos, nitrous, but its going to cause problems elsewhere.
    just like treyarchs engine, sure they can upgrade it to look as good as frostbite 2, but its going to cause the rest of the engine to fall apart because it cant handle it.
    as the saying goes, making something fast from scratch is always easier then making a car, then modifying it to be fast.
    if treyarch are going to compete, they really need a whole new engine!
