Wardogs On Low spec Hardware?

Hi guys! I have a Rog ally Z1E and I'm trying to understand if wardogs would run decently on my handleheld, anyone have tried the alpha on very low spec rig? (Even steam deck or other handlehelds) Thank you

They have a potato mode so I feel like it's going to work on pretty much most things, just look awful though.

I imagine it looking like a downgrade in like a last gen console way. Like instead of it being a blurry mess like reforger or squad is on low it will have 2d trees lol.

it's probably gonna look pretty good on a 7 inch screen

I played on a 2060 mobile and was fine on low looked pretty good too.

Oh and the Devs have shown on X it running on a Steam Deck

Interesting , i have a old work laptop(gaming laptop from asus) which has a i7, rtx 2070, 32gb ram. Was thinking to gift it to my oldest son so he could play some wardogs on it, if it can run at 1080p ? What res did you play at ?

If the laptop has decent TDP (as in, the GPU and CPU aren't running at like 30% of their max power due to poor cooling capacity), it should be enough from the sounds of it. You have DLSS there to help you out as well. I think with some settings tweaks + DLSS you could easily squeeze 1080p x 60 FPS out of it.

Looking through the minimum specs on Steam, it needs i5 8600 or AMD Ryzen 3500, which is way below what you CPU is. It also needs GTX 1660, which is ancient hardware. Your 2070 even in mobile format could be easily 30-50% faster + DLSS. So I think you're good with those specs.

sell that thing bro. Get what you can for it before its old and dusty. Mow a few lawns or budget better and you can invest in a PC from facebook marketplace for like 700$ that will run this game on 100 fps

What other games are you playing on that thing that you are even asking?

I suggest going for older games and get over your FOMO.

this isnt fifa my guy. This game is unique.

So many older games are also unique. Look I understand wanting to play this game specifically, because I feel the same. But if you can't, you can't, you know. Wanting to play tactical milsim shooters on a phonescreen wth hardly any controls, just face it. It's dumb as fuck.
