Heres hoping they are still planning on graphical updates this in the future.

Adjust scale on some buildings and assets like trees. Would love to see old biomes get either removed or revamped, like the Taigas or Gobi desert looking nothing like their real life counterpart. Would like to see fewer assets being shared between the biomes (too many of the same trees appear over every map). Actually, more nature variety in general would be good; more trees that are limited to specific biomes, more fauna and more foliage.

Revamped water for performance and aesthetics reasons, would like to see map generation changed so water is actually deep. Here is hoping that if this is done, it is designed in a way that would make puddles visible instead of transparent sheets of plastic.

Some kind of antialiasing for the grass. Currently it is just really pixelated unlike everything else.

Some natural effects would be nice; like a flock of birds flying by, or a grove of frogs/beavers in a section of a forest, whales you can fish up, colour temperature for environments (warm tones for deserts, cold for wintery biomes), hell even some slight snow or slight deserty wind.

Make the game feel alive. I don’t get why they left it at this proto-gameplay-only stage.

Despite how much I dislike the campaign, had the graphics been more immersive, it’d pull me a lot more into the actual history channel vibes they were trying. But, there was just never anything there to enjoy.

Anyone here with True hdr monitor compared the HDR of the game on the pup patch? I just feel like there is room for improvement when it comes to HDR for Aoe4. I have a mini led 1000 hdr monitor and i excepted things to look more lovely.

the season literally starts the 14th or 15th of june (said by the devs)
