With a bit of luck, some modders will make a patch to improve the graphics.

Ok so I managed to try 2k with Vsync on and at 36% Smoothness it did kill some jaggies though everything looked a bit too shiny with some more blur than I would have liked so I'm going to scale the smoothness down to 25%, I know this will intro jaggies but the blur can be a bit too much. Also tried their non fullscreen mode which even using a border windowless full screen mode program does not make the option a decent choice, with games like Star Wars Battlefront that give you a fully supported Full screen border windowless mode without any performance issues is a bonus for me but I guess with DD I have to stick with Vsync on full and full screen, at least until I get a G-sync monitor and try 4k then.

I do hope modders come up with some new textures because even though I am having fun with the game since the last time I tried it back in 2012, those "uncompressed" textures leave a lot to be desired, I feel it's the Japanese way of saying "we sharpened them that's all".

ALl in all it's definitely a good port but I feel some Japanese devs need to keep these little bits in mind for the future because I tell you it will go a long way, especially with me, I love having multiple AA options, FSBW mode and not having to use Vsync (better textures are always a nice thing to have).

 

Unrelated note: it appears I can finally play the new Homeworld thanks to Steam deciding us Brits can finally play a game that should have been playable since 12am, I really wish they would stop tying global release dates to US timezones because I honestly feel it's pointless in telling me X game is coming out the enxt day because in actuality it won't come out till my day is enarly over but the US day has either begun or is halfway through the day. Also annoying for those who have the day off work to play said game in the UK or non US that won't be able to play it and have a good chunk of their day ruiend because of that rule.
