I can confirm this! Here is a quick screenshot of the demo land battle in 3840x1024:

Would take more screenshots, but doing PrintScreen + Copy and paste into Paint is annoying, is there a hotkey in game that makes a JPG?

Taken on default graphics settings (either Low or Medium, I forget). The UI is perfectly center in the screen, and the FOV looks normal Hor+.

The only thing is the main menus are "centered widescreen" so an inch or 2 on the left/right monitors is visible (not a big deal), and the intro movies are all stretched (or zoomed in Vert-? didn't bother paying attention).

Hopefully the main campaign map gets treated with the same attention, because I'd love to finally game Total War on my 3 monitors!

--------

This just went from a "maybe buy right away" to a "must buy right away"! Creative Assembly is truly the king of strategy games.

The game resets the graphics settings every time you quit, I just went in to take a quick SS it was like 2AM in the morning :). Until you pointed out the native support for TH2Go, I was naive and played with maxed out 1280x1024 settings not even bothering to try 3840x1024.

Has anyone played the full version yet? I'd love to see a screenshot of the grand campaign map in TH2Go mode. I haven't been able to pick this up yet unfortunately :(.

Games works great in triplewide, but I usually play it in a window on the center screen. When I play it at 5040x1050, my graphics card starts to whine.

Can we get some screenshots of the game in 5040x1050 please? This thread is badly in need of them.

Ugh, no way, event notification is in the corner of the left most monitor? That's a travesty.
