    Re: Blurriness with Intel APU

    Turn the resolution up to native, and make sure AA is off. AA makes it look like 720p for some reason (for me anyway).

    Re: Regarding Rome II's UK price

    I bought it on Amazon at £25 (pre-order... sadly). The 33% off thing seemed stupid to me, seeing as it was basically the same as lowering the price to £29.99. It was on sale at 33% off since day 2 of...
  3. Re: 'Sale' price deception and other question.

    I think most people on this forum are tired of complaints about the game. All we can do now is uninstall it, maybe wait a year for it to be fixed and for some good conversion mods, then NEVER...
  4. Poll: Re: [COMMUNITY POLL] Usage of auto-resolving battles

    I generally auto-resolved more when I actually had the game installed. I played the first 1 or 2 sieges, then I auto-resolved them all because they get boring. I rarely engaged in land battles and...

    Re: Rome 2 advertised on TV

    So they'll spend money on sending 2 people who probably aren't loyal TW fans on a nice holiday BEFORE they fix it for everyone else? CA has officially lost its soul.
  6. Poll: Re: Do YOU believe CA will listen to the people?

    I don't think CA will add much in the ways of new content. It seems that their development structure was broken, and seemed to be pointed towards "We release it finished with these features we have...
  7. Re: Gamasutra-Creative Assembly's 'fairly brutal' approach to achieving high Metacritic scores

    It really annoys me how CA have apparently built this game. Instead of having a defined set of features that they want, they just said "Nope. If it's not 100% by next week it's cut". I'm all for...
  8. Re: What did the highly-exaggerated advertising campaign do to your trust?

    I sincerely hope that when CA next release a game, no one will buy it. A massive hole in CA's and SEGA's wallet should show them that they need to finish a game before releasing it. That, or putting...
  9. Re: What did the highly-exaggerated advertising campaign do to your trust?

    I will not be pre-ordering a TW game ever again. My trust was shot, buried, dug up, left in a sewer for a week and then buried again on top of a landmine. They said that it would look and play better...

    Stuff like "The Village People" and "The Pink Rangers" for Greek factions, for obvious reasons :P

    Re: Rome 2 Unit Lag

    I think it's a bug. I had the same thing in NTW. The grass would also be really slow when it moved, but it just seemed as though the animations were working at 10fps or so, but at normal speed. No...

  18. Re: Statement from CA Regarding Consoles: 11/09/13

    So why the bloody hell is the UI so crap compared to the alpha one? It doesn't fit in, it's too big and somewhat difficult to use (compared to Shogun 2).
  19. Re: Review from an Anonymous Developer [CA response]

    The OP was correct in the review. However, I found that the way he/she dealt with trolls was far from grown-up. You got full of yourself, AnonDev. You make it look like a conspiracy, when the...
  20. Re: It seems that the UI was built with a console in mind...

    Regardless of if it was built for console or not (I still have my suspicions, due to other examples that I don't think I need to add) this new UI looks far less intuitive for PC compared to the Alpha...
  21. Re: It seems that the UI was built with a console in mind...

    Well. After reading MrChris' reply I'll let this thread die. I was wrong and was probably jumping to conclusions.I must say, however, that the alpha UI looks much nicer and more stylized. No idea why...

    I did say it may be a coincidence with the colours, but everything else seems viable in my opinion. I'm not saying it's a conspiracy, I'm merely showing examples of how CA MAY have made parts of the...
  23. Re: It seems that the UI was built with a console in mind...

    It's supposed to be played on a keyboard. Previous TW would probably be impossible to play with a controller, but these modifications they've made that seem to have made the game worse, in some...

    Why I was frustrated after release

    Some say the game is fine, and it probably is (if you can get it to run properly...). However, there are very few improvements, from what I've seen, and lot of mistakes and bugs. Hard mode on a...

    CA hyped up Rome II as much as humanly possible. Rome I was and still is considered one of the best, if not THE best TW game. CA used that idea and made it look as though this was going to be an...
