ok guys, I am about to try playing this on my core 2 duo laptop with an integrated graphics chip, and only 4 gigs of ram/memory
its a toshiba satelite with a 1.86ghz duo core mobile
I will post weather it plays or not, as well as if I experienced any graphics lag, stuttering, freezing or any other issues that would be hardware related."
further more, I was not attempting in any way to hurt anyones feelings, or upset anyone.. My statements in this topic were more to do with how games of the next few years are going to be designed to push the boundries, (which really at the core creation of them were designed to do just that, the very first games on pcs were created as trouble shooting tools)
so here goes nothing (and I think it would be great if it does work on older systems as well as mobile devices such as cellphones and tablets, woudl def give a hudge customer base or player base)
1366 x 768 is the res low settings
so far it is a bit laggy but still playable, the lag I am getting is probably because of the particle effects, if not for those it would be running smootly
k so i completed a match, the issues I was getting even on an old core 2 duo mobile cpu, wiht no performance gaming gpu and just using the onboard chipset .... was mostly from particle effects, adn when any type of shimmering and the like were used
a notable thought is I was also running wireless internet, which eventhough I am less than five feet away from my wireless n router, one has to take into account that as well, being my router is configurated to put more bandwith to my gaming rig landline and less through wireless, how ever wiht that said I feel that only would account for a very small percentage of the issues with laglike experiences ....
those are my thoughts ......
P.S. I am pretty sure those of you running a better laptop with newer, faster, more powerful hardware with at least dx10 or better, should have no issues running this game on low settings, you will experience some minute issues, and the game may not feel as smooth as you would like but it should very much be playable between low to med settings. and again that is with out knowing what you have running in the background, your exact system specs, and hardware configurations, as well as if your wireless or not, and the distance between you and the wireless router or what is between you and the router, as well as your routers configuration.....
I mean to say IF you are running off your buddies wireless net from two houses away, then yes your going to get some lag issues but that is not graphical,
and if your running a non dedicated gpu, meaning running an integrated chipset gpu, then yes your also going to experience some issues, as yoru processor is taking on the bulk of both the processing, and the gpu processing as well as any physics (if there are any).....
hope this helped alittle bit clarify some of the hardware, software, lag issues, or gameplay feeling not all that smooth or responcive ........
I wish I knew how to set up streaming so i could show you guys exactly my experiences .....
anyways best regaurds
