Laptop vs Desktop

I have probably played this game on around ten different machines.

Many desktop computers when I was younger (2002-2012~)

many laptops from (~2012-present)

and one tiny 8 inch tablet bought from Walmart for $100 around ~2015 year.

The tablet was the most painful -- because I had to either restart the tablet or log out and back in at the end of every round or else nothing would work. I did use a bluetooth keyboard and a wired mouse that had an adapter to plug into the tablet. This meant I couldn't charge the tablet while playing, so all in all -- it qualifies for the most painful -- in addition to not being able to see things very well because of the small screen. I was desperate and didn't want to spend money on a new laptop, though.

Although this was the cheapest windows tablet I found, it really performed just as well as those desktops I used from the early 2000's while playing BF1942.. you know, around 20 fps on low settings.

I once had a gaming desktop from around (2008-2012~) I am thinking. The great performance really boosted my skill.

And currently I am on a laptop with 12 GB Ram, Windows 10, 1.8 ghz base with up to 4.6 ghz turbo,  4 cores, i7-8565U processor, with NVIDIA GeForce MX250 and Intel UHD 620 graphics cards and average around 250 fps on BF1942.

I am curious what percentage of people play the game on laptop vs tablet, or both. I only play on a laptop now.

Do you play BF1942 on a laptop or desktop?

1. Laptop
2. Desktop
3. Windows Tablet

Re: Laptop vs Desktop

Well have both desktop and laptop, but laptop is better for me somewhat as my desktop can decrease performance and hard to play....

Can you record gameplay with that?  At some point soon I'd like to buy lappy for Pop!_Os.

..

Well, I can record gameplay for BF1942 with no problem. I haven't tried recording any newer game, and I doubt I could play if I did..

It'll run games like Rising Storm 2 Vietnam, Verdun, Rainbow Six Siege all on low settings - but I have not tried any game newer than these.
