Graphics default really low?

[WordByrd]

i know my computer isnt top of the line, especially since my motherboard is pretty old... but this game crying that i cant handle anything other than hyperpotato graphics and a significantly smaller resolution than my native screensize, when my computer can happily run, say, red dead redemption 2 at decent settings, is laughable

unless the game REALLY has SUCH better graphical intensity than rdr2, but i doubt that? is this just a day 1 issue or something

[Keviin Sorbo]

they recommend a 970 and a six core cpu if you meet those qualifications then its prob the game that has issues

[NofLii]

I was shocked by this as well… hope they can fix it with a patch

This game is extremely single threaded (owing to it's original development as a mobile game).

for the record despite the game insisting i should play on potato quality, i manually changed all my settings to the highest ones, and it still runs smooth as butter, so...

Yes, just ignore what the game says, in my case the game wanted me to play with the graphics in medium with a Rtx 2060.

Source of original plans to make it a mobile game? Interesting.

it's because of the company of heroes 1 engine used (2006) it was good back then but they never create a new engine so game is so limited for 1 core... unacceptable for 2021 standards

If you have an older GPU, no worries, you are not missing out. I'm running AOE4 on RTX3080 w 5900x. The game still does not look nearly as good as Anno1800 on my laptop with the mobile GTX1650 running things.

Is that just the recommendation or are you physically unable to? Some people using laptops have mentioned you have to go on geforce settings to make sure you're not using your CPU integrated graphics.

Except 1.) it isn't originally in development as a mobile game and 2.) phones have multiple cores today

I know, I never said otherwise.

Rx3600, 5500xt 16 ram

Everything high with AA disabled, medium shadows:

1v1 mid game: 70-100 fps

Everything high, AA high:

50-60 fps

Having the issue with camera.

Don't used AA is poorly optimized

2v2 mis game.is only playable in medium/low

20 min left will wait this week for a fix otherwise refound and bad review.

dont worry, i was easily able to change all the settings to the highest ones, and the game is running perfectly on my computer. changing most of the graphical settings required a restart for the changes to take place, though, so i had to change them all and reopen the game, which was a little annoying when i was eager to start right away
