Hi all. Looking at a new Dell XPS 15 laptop which has a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 with 4GB GDDR5 graphics card in it and a 3840x2160 native res. Anyone playing the game at this resolution?

From what I know the game doesn't scale properly on HDPI displays. So you'll have to play the game with very small fonts, but at least you'll see a lot of map on one screen.

I wondered if that might be the case. Seems that many games aren't keeping up with the reality of quickly-becoming-current displays. Lots of old game core engines out there. Shame, because this would be a great game to be able to see a lot of the map at once AND be able to read what it and the message dialogs are trying to tell you...

I can play without problems on 3440x1440, although that is on a 34 inch screen.

Yes, but the OP mentioned a (probably) 15" laptop. That might be a bit harder.

Yes, on a 15 inch screen it is probably more difficult.
