You need a supercomputer to run this game

Judging from the screenshots, it looks like you will need a completely up to date powerhouse computer with the most sickest graphics card or even cards, to play this game.

People like me who have financially suffered since the economy collapsed will hate this game!! Simply because we can't play it....

That's the one thing I hate about computer games, every year you have to buy new parts for the computer in order to be able to play these games. That's like having a PS3 and buying a new PS3 every year....

I don't know about that. Same engine as NTW, and my not so good rig can run NTW high settings.

Indeed. CA claims that Shogun will be even more scaleable (sp?) than even ETW or Napoleon.

I have an ok card, 9800GT and 3G RAM and a Quad core, and I run Napoleon with no problems oh high settings. So i think (hope) that all will be well when Shogun releases.

I have always turned the unit detial up to highest, units on largest and turned down the rest. For I could never play everything on ulitmate. I was always pleased with the results. Turning off the grass and shadows helps alot with performance as well. I never really thought they were needed anyway.
