Can it cope?

Hi, Just want some advice to weather you think my laptop could handle fm10,

hp

AMD turion 64 mobile

Technology mk-36

2.01ghz, 992 mr of ram

This is the info i get off the My computer info bit.

I could always play on works computer but have since changed jobs so only got the laptop at home and was seeing before i buy the game.

Thanks in advance

It can, but don't expect it to be able to run a lot of leagues, not fast anyway.

Yes you can play with this configuration, but I wouldn't load more than 10-15 countries and not all the lower leagues, create a game with the following countries:

- England

- Spain

- Italy

- France

- Germany

- Portugal

- Netherlands

- Bresil

- Argentina

and just load the 3 first leagues of each country if there are that much. This should give enough depth to the game, give you enough "regens" and yet keep your system responsive.

You're kidding, right?

I have a similar configuration and if I would load that with more than just the top leagues it would be way too slow to play.

And I'm a patient man.

I don't mind waiting between games for calculation to happen, just because it's less annoying than having a game with too few leagues to play with. There’s a tradeoff between the realistic football management you want to have and what the computer can do. If you want to have fun for a long period of time I suggest you load as many leagues as possible, the other option is to play with fewer leagues and find yourself in 2045 in less than 5 hours. It depends what you’re looking for in this game; arcade gaming style, then go for really few leagues, management simulation style, then load as much leagues as possible.

Start by creating a game with few leagues for a start, just to see how it works, and if you feel your computer could do much more, then create a new game with more leagues loaded. I always do that with any FM version and whatever the power of my PC, just to find the right balance.

That computer by today's standards is very low spec.

As DivineOne said anything more than a few leagues will bring your game to a standstill.

If you do what headhunter says prepare for an extremely slow moving game.
