I just got this game today and I'm definately not going to continue to play it due to watching the characters blocky shadows, is there anyway to fix this?!!?!?

It's all aout graphics for everyone... such a dull society...

Update drivers if it wont work buy a new graphic card because the one u got now suck monkey ballz and doesnt fully support shaders...

My current rig is a Q6600 OC'd @ 3.0ghz, 9800gtx and 4gig of 1066 ram.

You have to be kidding me. Well, if you paid for the game and decide not to play it because the shadows are too blocky then it's your loss.

The game is so beautiful, but then you look at the character shadows which are ugly ****ing blocks >.<

Does anyone else have similar shadows?

I guess forcing AA in your video card settings could do the trick but that fails on my ATI HD4870 (screen flickers during load, can't even see anything ingame). I'm looking into possible advanced settings but the game doesn't have as many customization options as assassin's creed does (which has the same shadows btw). Honestly though, I finished the game without even noticing the shadows were that bad.

EDIT: I can't find any way to increase shadow detail, it's just down to the graphics engine, AA settings won't change it either. Assassin's Creed (same engine) apparently has a ShadowMapSize setting that you could tweak, but I can't find it in this game and I'm not sure how much difference it would make. The only advice I can give you is to ignore it, it's not as noticeable in other areas anyway.

Look. shadows FAIL and WIN in the same picture. What the hell is this supposed to mean?

I have the same problem. Are you going to patch it UBI? My spec: Radeon 4850, Catalyst 9.9
