Unread postby slippr » Tue Nov 26, 2019 8:47 pm

256 Gb SSD
8 GB DDR3 ram
Intel HD 5500
Intel Core I7 5600U

My concern is what features, especially graphical, I won't be able to use

thanks for the input!

Sorry - no chance - you would need to add a dedicated card like GTX 1650, RX 580 - Please see screenshot - and you can test it here - https://www.pcgamebenchmark.com/unity-o ... quirements

Intel 5xxx series is supported.

Note that it's a weaker GPU so you will need to play on "Low" graphics settings and the frame rate won't be super high. We have found this not to be a problem for play, but just so you know.

Feel free just refund on Steam if it doesn't work for you. Just don't forget to change the graphics preset in Options/Video. Also, make sure your graphics drivers are up to date: this is mostly fine on Win 10, but Win 7/8 machines can sometimes be badly out of date.


Cheers!

Thanks TU! I guess this is like getting a reply from Steve Jobs when you call the apple call center!

ps I can play with AF and smoothing on low and all others on high and the game is very responsive. I would say there is very little loss of quality and full playability on decent laptops that do no have dedicated graphics card. So this much has remained the same since UOC the first.
