Title: Low end laptop (intel card) - Need and MMORPG, SUGGEST ME ONE!
Post by: ductape on April 02, 2012, 08:23:54 pm: I used to be able to run Eve Online on this things, bt not anymore for some reason even with the toned down client. Even then, it was kinda sticky.

Been thinking of trying out Ryzom again, not sure if its any fun. Anyone have any ideas? No MUDs or the like please.

Star Trek Online.
It's free.

from Steam page:
NVIDIA GeForce 7800 / ATI Radeon X1800 / Intel HD Graphics

I mean yeah, I have an integrated intel video chip, read: LOW END LAPTOP.

Im not positive because I havent tried, but I doubt I can run it.

Used to.

I dl'ed CoH and played it on my Intel GMA 950 - on lowest settings, i'd be lucky to get 5fps.
WoW up to WOTLK ran quite smoothly after a bit of tweaking, usually ~30fps except in hefty raids or some of the bigger areas.

Runescape (surprisingly) runs quite poorly on my GMA 950. On Standard Detail it gets ~20-30fps. On HD in older areas it gets ~15. In newer areas on HD it gets ~10. And yeah, don't also assume it's a kiddy game. While I don't play it actively anymore, I'd be happy to give you a starter pack of armor and lotsamoney.

Uhm, I usually just play low-end games anyway. My computer's actually quite fast besides the graphics card - at the time it was one of the fastest on the market for ~$1500.

Post by: Calhoun on April 03, 2012, 07:49:54 am: You want something that doesn't require much in graphics and is also wuper awesome?

Anarchy Online.

Only MMO I ever dropped cash on. Don't regret it one bit either. Hell if you want to get into it I'll play with you.

ya thinking about it i guess that is possible...

hmm maybe guild wars? thats quite some years old now 2005 or so...

ragnarok online, dream of mirror online (domo), marplestory (?).
or runes of magic? dragon nest?

well no clue how bad a "low end laptop intel gfx" is...
games like aion/rift/atlantica online/sword 2/lineage 2 are probably too much again...

or just look yourself at older games at http://www.mmorpg.com/ game list tab.

Post by: nenjin on April 03, 2012, 09:16:21 am: EQ is F2P, and if you can't run that, you can't run anything.

If you do play, might want to shell out the $5 it takes to get the Silver Membership, as the bronze membership is kinda meh.
