Shadows

[unmerged(642397)]

To the developers and publishers of Magicka.

Please allow us to turn off shadows and other options to disable so we can play more smoother.
When I play Magicka, I have everything off and everything at it's lowest and still get lag spikes every 5 minutes or so. The game even crashes a lot of times.
If disabling shadows won't be added, at least make a config file somewhere (in the directory or the user's appdata or My Games folder) so we can adjust the settings to our likings.

Many people do not have enough money for a good PC or laptop but do have money for a very fun and addicting game. This game is very unique to me.
I'm one of the people.

Thank you for reading this and I wish that the game can do a lot better with the graphics options.

Hi BrianLai30, thanks for the feedback. I totally hear you.

This all depends on what happens in the future, we've discussed features like this but we have many things on the drawing board.

I gotta be honest though, I don't think the chances are high for these features but I can't know for sure.

I hope something like this goes along though!
Most games I play that supports shadows have a feature that can disable shadows but this game without that feature is what makes the game miserable.

I dont think it makes the game miserable when it's so funny, you can improve your fps using your own graphic's card panel.

Also, you have to understand that a team of maybe 10 developers, with 3 programmers cant do the same optimization as team of hundreds like crytek's or dice's developers.

Of course the game is funny but it's miserable in a way that it is laggy, forcing me to play in the lowest graphics with the lowest resolution.
