Sledgehammer Games’ Glen Schofield has spoken out on the difference between Modern Warfare 3 and the competition, or, rather, it appears, the Frostbite 2 engine used in EA’s Battlefield 3.
Speaking to AusGamers, Schofield said “I’ve seen that trick [with reference to naming engines] and the bottom line is, [Modern Warfare 3] will run at 60 frames a second. Not sure any of our competitors will. You don’t ship an engine, you ship a game.”
“Not sure I’ve seen any of our competitors on the console especially running at 60 frames a second and I’d be a little scared at this point – in June – if I was looking forward to a particular game that wasn’t on the console and running at 60,” Schofield added.
“And I think 60 is our competitive edge and you just don’t throw that away.”
Do you agree? Sure, nice smooth action is always welcome but developers often compromise in other areas to achieve that hallowed frame rate. The battle for this year’s big FPS is just warming up…

Really? Your trying to make your game look better by saying talking about the 60fps. I rather see your improve on the game. Nearly the same engine, same graphics, same multiplayer experience.
Kill, get some killstreaks, finish match.
Atleast DICE managed to improve drastically on the game.

Correct me if I wrong I thought COD games were at 60FPS because the resolution wasnt even 720P something like 680 (I seem to remember about the last two cods) then that is upscaled to 1080 (not native)
