While the game may have just launched earlier this week, developer of Total War: Rome 2 is not stopping the updates with the first schedule for this Friday.

Creative Assembly revealed the notice through their official Facebook, stating that the update will serve as the first of many changes to come, noting that their intention is to update the game on a weekly basis in the immediate future.

At Creative Assembly we are very pleased with the response to ROME II, with hundreds of thousands of players enjoying the game so far; but we do know that, as with all large PC releases, the variety of hardware and general system specifications can cause issues for some people and we are urgently working to help get them the right experience.

As announced last month, we are also planning to tweak the balancing, AI routines and other features now that we’re getting real-time metric feedback from thousands of players.

Full patch notes on Friday's update will be made available soon, but the update will address "known instances of crashes due to hardware conflicts alongside several other performance fixes." Creative also encouraged those experiencing graphical issues including low resolution textures to seek out support on their official forums, which contains suggestions for tweaking in-game options to get the best out of your system.
