In which case when its released and i point out the same, can we then agree that the notion of going to such lengths is a silly one?

youre essentially telling me to believe that theyre going to do all this work, get it to the point of a trailer, then scrap all the models and remake them in higher quality?, i doubt it, as both a gamer and a developer, i doubt it very much.

If you can run a game at 4k, then it runs at 4k, 4k is just a resolution as such the topic claims this to be the first game to run at 4k, which given that its a pc title, its extra silly.

again, games will always show better results at higher resolutions except for objects extremey close to the screen, as more pixels of each texture as visable on models further away that otherwise would be a muddy mess.

To make it absolutely clear, heres battlefield 3, prior to take off from the carrier, both at the same settings the only difference is the left is upscaled from its native 1080p to match the size of the 4k image.

Edges and aliasing are not the only thing that improves, as i have now said multiple times.

it's a really high resolution
