[Desertworld]

well we don't know anything else about the laptop.. a celeron is pretty bad but if it may have more than 2ghz it could be able to run it. which other hardware does the laptop have? (go to steam --> help --> system informations --> post it here)

[cameliamurphy]

I'm just gonna say, that you MAY be able to start up ARK. But you will in no way shape or form be able to play the game.

nope he won't. ark requires 2x2ghz as you can see in the workshop. 2x1,5ghz is just way too slow. even after 2 hours loading screen it isn't finished.. it's just too slow
