Tablet for OOTP 19

tcoots423 · 07-20-2018, 02:36 AM

I know this has probably been asked before, but I have a PC that I normally play OOTP on. I wouldn't mind purchasing a tablet for taking the game on the go. I was just wondering if there are any tablets that can handle OOTP/ easily play it without lugging around my laptop.

It would have to run full version of windows and not have an arm processor.

Which honestly they don't make many of as straight tablets a lot of convertible ones, which are as heavy as laptops anyway. And most of the ones they make have an Intel Atom processor I couldn't imagine sim times on that chip. Its like a watch processor.

The only thing that can come close is the Microsoft Surface which you can get with i5 or i7 and are all ssd. And you be lucky to get one for $500 used and like 3-4 years old. Mostly like be spending over $800.

I mean you can get a Lenovo Thinkpad x240 for between $150-$200 used. Its under 3lbs its tiny and light and thin. Drop a SSD in it and your off and running. And it can take an internal and bottom loaded battery so 2 batteries. Weights extra with both batteries but you will get so much battery time. And they come with a Windows Key or one can be bought for under $15 (win key) on ebay.

The only thing you can do with an android tablet is say remote desktop to your Pc using an app like TeamViewer. You will get reduced visuals remoting in but it runs off your main PC. As long as you have a good internet connection speed wont be a problem.

Which laptop do you use? I use both an Alienware 13r3 Oled and a MacBook Pro 13 inch with touchbar! They both work wonderfully and the MacBook Pro is so very think and lite!

I have a HP laptop and I only use that laptop for OOTP19. my other laptop I been using for OOTP all the way up to 18. Screen resolution is the reason I got the new laptop so I can see all the features in the game in full. Will not use any apple products.

I have an HP gaming PC (Cube) that I really enjoy using. Why no Apple products? I own an iPhone7plus, iPad 10.6 inch screen, Apple Watch 2nd generation (waterproof nike) and my MacBook Pro and I love, love them. That doesn't mean I also do not appreciate my Alienware and gaming PC as they are perfect for gaming and everyday use as well. Truth be told the machine I use the most is the MacBook Pro, so lite and High Sierra (macOS) is far superior (intuitive) than Windows. Is it the price$?

apple products are traditionally limited in what they can do and especially for repair of their computers as everything is inhouse and not licenced unlike their iphones. and I do not like that. Windows can do all that and more plus its found everywhere as they licensed the product out. Jobs got a few major loans from his friend Gates. (smart move) as evidenced by Iphones being licenced out to save their company. There is other information that can be found behind the scenes and a few from jobs biography.
as for me I am completely happy with Windows and its abilities

Iphones are ridiculously priced as they use silver from China and china has suddenly limited its usage from iPhone of which created an issue and now with the regulation being removed they can now produce the stuff here at home of which will probably save Apple AGAIN.

Wow Apple hater much? A healthy Apple Company is good for the economy. I personally enjoy the Apple "ecosystem" which is much sleeker and intuitive than that of Windows. Understand this comes from a life long Heavy Windows computer user (since 1991). I have owned mostly Windows desktops and laptops since 1993 but Apple has blown me away with how it integrates all my uses of it into a efficient and effective "package. I understand that price may be a deterrent for some but if you can afford it, then it is well worth your purchase in my opinion. My MacBook Pro is the first piece of technology I use everyday...well after I put on my Apple Watch and check my iPhone for breaking news stories and the day's weather...

I did get a cheap $99 tablet from Wal Mart to do exactly what you are asking. I have a laptop, but wanted something to easily play on the go rather than the BBM app, which is good but very limited. It will work on a Windows tablet, but I don't try 3D or face gen. I just play the game and it works for those of us that don't get much free time in front of a laptop.

yes a apple hater as you put it … I do not like being limited in where I can go for repairs and software for apple products …. it is true they more focused on cellphone hardware. but I am talking computers itself as that is kept inhouse. Of which is why I am windows person. if you like apple more power to you as this is a preference thing for me as I have seen both operate

Apple products are for sheeple

Costco has some decently affordable laptop options

It was the cheapest one at Wal Mart that was windows based. It's an RCA. It's just portable enough. But if you have the cash, I would recommend better. This just worked for me.

laptop? hide a tower behind some furniture and hook it up to your big-screen 4k tv with wireless mouse and keyboard. play from your couch. Plus, spend half as much and get far better hardware.

*** 18+

plus, no low 'swimmer' count from all that heat on your lap. that heat can help incubate certain fungal infections too.

happy thoughts!
