Battle for middle earth II Demo tomorrow on gamespot

[Freeman]

Possibly because highly detailed shadows would cripple your performance?

I have plenty more power in my card for BFME2, everything maxed out on the demo still runs so smooth. I want better shadows!!

 

[Buzza]

I think its just a bug. Probably be ok in the final release or 3-4 patches after release ;D

 

[Puppetmaster]

maybe its a limitation of the generals game engine?

 

[Rincewind]

i didn't realise it ran on the generals engine... lol. and btw i meant my hard drive. just out of interest when is this game out?

 

[gazozborne]

It's out 3rd of march going by the online stores, think i might go for the collectors edition though personally.

Also just played as the goblins and they didnt seem to have any shadows, think im going crackers here

Its a weird engine though, zoomed out the giants look a bit squarey till you zoom in, and the Balrogs breath fire nearly brought my PC to its knees nevermind the other army!

 

[NeoReloaded]

Ive just downloaded the demo and all settings are on high and a couple on utra high by default but all the shadows ingame look really square-ey?! What option can i put up to resolve this? Shadows is on high already!

Thanks.

Dangerous... this was the one game that got me hooked well and truely.

Hours of multiplayer mayhem, all I saw before going to sleep was 1000s of horses galloping round the screen and Gandalfs wizard blast non stop.

3rd of March and the new quest begins are you ready.
