Will it run on a netbook?

Unread postby PortePoisse » Tue Dec 27, 2011 8:35 pm

Hi!

I'm only one step from buying it, and that step is knowing if it will run on a native resolution of 1024x600 (I searched the forum, and one post said that every resolution over that was supported, without telling if it included it or not). My netbook is a N150+ and seems to fit all the other minimum requirements. ;)

Thank you for your answer!

PP.

I'm not sure about your particular netbook, but it runs fine on my eeePc 1000HE which has a resolution of 1024x600. I'm even running it through Wine on Linux and I'm not having any resolution or speed issues at all.

Hi guys, welcome to the forums!

I was going to say... I've been running the game recently on a 1GB Acer Aspire One with a 1.6GHz Atom CPU. Not totally smooth but no problems with it either.

But the issue seems settled already :)

Indeed. And I can confirm it runs very smoothly on a N150+. Only thing was the first time I launched the game, it took like an eternity. The second time, on the contrary, the launch was fast and the game ran without any kind of slowness.

Excellent game! And I can even play it on the plane or the train! ;)

It takes a bit longer only when your first start the game after a reboot. Disk access is not that snappy on these little netbooks apparently. Once windows have everything cached scenarios start normally, i.e. much faster.
