Yes i know the graphics are pretty good for it coming out 5 months from now but i really havn't seen any improvment in them since last year. They are really just chunky and blocky i think that is the biggest problem. and i think that creatures in the water(i saw a screenshot with a sea serpant in it or something and it looked fake) should not just disapear once they are under the suface. They should be slightly visable depending on how deep they are.i hope you understand what i mean.

1. They are visible under-water..look at the Norse Kraken on the unit page. That serpent screenshot is ancient...very, very old one.

2. Chunky and blocky? They used to be...not nearly any more.

If the odd person is still complaining about the graphics after we've all seen the game running on our PCs, I'll be mighty surprised. Screenshots just don't do it...

Thunders right u cant say anything until you play the game, he would know.

Whoever reads what I said above should disregard whatever I said, because I probably don't know what im talking about.

Actually those of us with really bad PC's wont be able to get the graphics anywhere near as good as those screens . *starts crying about POS comp*

heh, i remember in EE i used to pump the graphics up real high sometimes casue it looked so much cooler, but at that resolution i only got 2 FPS which is sad since that was only at like 1200*1--- at 16 bit color

As for units being blocky, thats becasue they are 3-D, and made with as few polygons as possible to reduce lag.
