Number of polygons

[jonnythegreat]

How many polygons is an average Battlefield map made up of?

How many polygons are there in humans and vehicles?

Thanks

I'm no technical person, but I'm sure you'd get a better answer if you asked this question on the PR Forums. Lots of developers and techy people who know.. techy stuff

There are enough to make visible holes, but too much to make a good game. =D

*High five to BF2 Engine*

NOT TALKING ABOUT THE PR MOD HERE, PR MOD=WIN FOREVER.

The gpu itself might keep a count during the game, Im not sure if any tool would be able to display this info. You can definitly check the amount of textures used.
Ask on the community mod forum section, bf2 editor

I wish games had stuck purely to filled polygons, stuff the textures and ramp up detail at the model level because it affects gameplay much more or could do ie. its more realistic!
