    Default This is Maxed Out?

    I'm running it with every option on and set to Extreme, averaging around 40-50+ FPS. That said, the visuals are not stunning in the least, and at times certainly don't appear like the screenshots presented by CA. Sad when games like Empire and Napoleon exceed a supposedly visually groundbreaking game. And the troops look like they have down-syndrome...

    No, it isn't. My game isn't even maxed out and it looks better than yours:



    Have you checked the VRAM override option?

    Really? They look like absolute dog to me, at least when comparing them to the screens released by CA.

    Specs:

    i7 4770K OC'd to 4.5Ghz
    ASUS Gryphon Z87 MB
    16GB DDR3 1866MHz Corsair Dominator Platinum
    Nvidia GTX 780
    Running Rome 2 on a SSD

    No he is right,i checked preferance tab and all is well,but the game is just badly optimazed and clunky,35 % of people get the game too look like that while others say it is great.

    If you don't turn on "Unlimited video memory", the game basically shuts down graphics settings to keep the framerate higher.
    Most notable, it literally disables anti-aliasing, no matter if you have it on in the settings.

    Here's some in bitmap format which are loss-less. Visual fidelity just isn't there. Zoomed out, looking over the formation, everything appears jagged and as if anti-aliasing isn't on (which it is).

    Sorry, but this is just plain ugly.

    I found out how to solve it: select 'unlimited video memory' in graphics menu. This worked for me

    Marine - There is no visual fidelity because the anti aliasing isnt really anti aliasing. Its just a blur shader.

    Not everything on extreme but thought it looked pretty ok

    Yeah you're definitely getting some sort of bug based on the bug eyes of your soldiers. They're not supposed to look that... disturbing.

    Lifeless backdrop here, and I do think some of the unit textures leave a bit to be desired, but the main Roman on the horse in the foreground looks just as CA advertised.

    EDIT: DP; TWC is working as well today as Rome 2 for most possible.
