Video settings
If the graphics look blurry when zoomed-in, turn Tilt shift amount down in the settings menu in-game.
Enable Dynamic Super Resolution on NVIDIA Graphics Cards
- If you have DSR enabled via your NVIDIA Control Panel then your additional resolutions will appear in the game's graphics options menu. However if you attempt to use one of these resolutions then the game will default back to your monitor's native resolution when you hit apply.
- This can be fixed by launching the game with
-force-d3d9
parameter.
