Cluid Players 35 posts 278 battles Report post #1 Posted December 11, 2016 I am very fortunate to be running a very high end system and a 40" 4K monitor, I just messed around with the settings and managed to run the game at 3840 x 2160 with everything turned up and no lag, my god how sweet does this game look at those resolutions, its stunning.....

XbodzioXplX Players 6,008 posts 7,043 battles Report post #3 Posted December 11, 2016 I'm just curious. Does the minimap and other UI elements are big enough that he can see them without problem? There were tons of topics about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does the minimap and other UI elements are big enough that he can see them without problem? There were tons of topics about that. I am not in the OP's realm of 'look at what I have' but with my lowly 32" running at 2560 x 1440, the players panel is tiny as well as the minimap (compared to screen acreage), that is why I run customised players panel and minimap as you can then upscale it to match. Must look tiny on the OP's screen......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Typical yank.....70" screen, 1" weener. Surpised you didn't get irradiated that close to the screen . Seriously though, how far did you have to sit for it to be playable? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I play the game sometimes on a 110" screen using a JVC projector for eye candy and 7.1.4 speaker setup being upmixed so ceiling speakers actually work when aircraft fly over my ship. Runs fine but there is a bit of input lag sadly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[THESO] CptMinia Moderator, Players, Privateer 1,427 posts 11,709 battles Report post #14 Posted December 11, 2016 I find the 27" 1440p dual monitor setup the sweet spot. I see why people might try play on 40"+ screens but after a couple hours I'd probably revert back... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yet it still gets eaten alive by a stock i5 4690k at stock (which is cheaper). The FX range are a budget way into computing (I've two in my lan room BTW), but they are NOT high end 'can run NASA' computers.
