I bought it specificly to play Shogun 2 on ultra. However, when I launch the game and go to the graphics menu, it sais that "video memory" is only 535 MB and I can only run the game on "high settings" - The greaphics card, it sais, is Geforce 580 which is correct, so why can I only use 535 MB video memory? Not nice
@TheChrisglasgow loool...well i played rome,medieval,medieval 2 and i can tell you that its in between. There is a narrator giving some very good tips when you first start out...trust the battles are amazing, when engage heavy infantries into enemy unit of infantries and see them fight and you realise you have a cavalry charge awaiting your order you take them and ravage the enemy from behind...good satisfactions...
Its fun although it was the game I played the least in the TW series. Its not horribly complicated. in fact its less complicated than an RTS as you have less to think about at once. Its turn based strategy(think civilization except one time period) and real time battles.
@TheQhozt i think it isnt weak because the processor requirement for this game is intel Core 2 Duo E7500 2.93GHz also the processor doesnt play a huge role on a game!
@TheQhozt u stfu you fucking gay shit u say that intel core i5 is weak for shogun when the recomended is intel core i5 u are gay...check your problem in a scientist!radiation and blowjobs have destroyed your brain!
@TheQhozt there i no point arguing i have seen many diff opinions. that it needs 2nd gen intel core i5,intel core quad,intel core 2 duo and lots of shit.also at game-debate(its a gaming site) i says that i could run on high shogun 2 with these specs.
@arisbetrayer What you are saying is that your i5 650 is the same as the 2500k, and your CPU and GPU are still to weak to play the game at "very high" settings
@fakeandgaytroll1 Well as you can see, the range of the archers are really short, instead of shooting it upwards, they could just shoot in front of them. And when there's raining arrows coming down, what are the odds of only 2 people dying? You don't know what you're talking about...
@wirechair So Do I, but I dont ahve £2000 spare lol, just a high end single card like a 6970 or a 580, or even w8 for the new series to come out at the end of the year.
can you please give me your pc specs? im going to upgrade my pc and this looks like it can handle everything, compared to my old crappy nvidia 8800 GT and my old crappy dual core.
i think this game not only is GPU intensive but it's also CPU intensive. i heard that it uses all extra cores on your CPU so quad core and hexa core really help in this type of game
@MrThejoker6000 Yes, only thing holding that build back is the graphics card. You should be playing at 1024x768 or 1280x1024 at low or medium settings. Though they say at low settings it still looks great.
@254jacksonpro Well no shit, If that is ran off an 580 GTX... after that it all depends on you're motherboard, processor and RAM... (Why the hell did you even ask the question when you have the best graphics card to the date?!)
@nicholson313 a GTX 560 should run this game with ultra settings with 30fps average. So a GTX 570 should run with 35fps average or a bit lower. I am not sure, but that is what I think.
@nicholson313 - Well I've ran it on a gtx 260 and got between 19 to 25 fps, on High so a gtx 570 should get around 35 to 45 on Ultra with 4xAA at least . . .

When you recorded this, the game was still DX9 right? Or you recorded it after the patch that enabled DX11?
Just asking because i got a GTX580 too, and i'm doing about 40~45fps average using DX11 and almost everything maxed out (used fraps benchmark).
Just wanted to know if that's good or not.
