richard.boddy@ntlworld.com 11 Posted August 16, 2012 Your processor and video card (or lack of) are going to be the drawback.Laptops are not for gaming as you may already know. You need to buy a gaming PC.The only thing that you can really do is keep lowering the ingame video settings to the lowest possible, even then you will probably get lag I'm afraid.

griffbird 6 Posted August 16, 2012 Yeah I already got everything in game as low as possible, I had figured since this is basically the only thing ive downloaded on to this laptop it would work smoothly but i guess not.If anyone is still reading this post do any of you think upgrading the parts I have will make it work better?

mokum 8 Posted August 16, 2012 My advice is, buy a new gaming system and do not upgrade the system what you have now.If you will upgrade, its better to save the $$ till u can buy a new one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard.boddy@ntlworld.com 11 Posted August 17, 2012 agree, dont upgrade that laptop, that will be throwing money away.I don't know your money situation, do you have a job? at school? etc............ You need to save up a good amount of money. And then spend a lot of time researching what to buy, don't just jump straight in. Asking advice on forums like you are doing is the best way to go about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
griffbird 6 Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Thx for the advice but I dont plan to play any games other then this on the PC Im more of a xbox 360 guy and for me to spend thousands of dollars on a sicko gaming pc for 1 game seems more of a waste then to just trip out the laptop I hav at the momentAll Im asking is will this game run smoothly if i trip out my laptop?Im also 16 and its my older bro thats spending the cash...

griffbird 6 Posted August 17, 2012 even though i like the xbox i would much rather have the PC version for this game :)Making it for the xbox would take way too much away from the gameplay i believe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
