Anyone played this game on this Laptop?

[Ismaeel]

I have an Acer a515-54g. It came with Geforce mx250 GPU and i5 8265U (1.6 GHZ) and 16GB RAM.

Anyone with the same or atleast similar specs confirm if Fallout 4 runs on this setup well? My older pc couldnt handle Diamond City and the surrounding areas. I dont want to take the risk and waste money on this game if it runs at low fps.

Thank u in advance

the 250 is far below minimum specs

I play it in a potato acer with an i3 processor. Elevate the laptop with a mesh shelf. Put a usb fan under it. Put small fan behind it. Turn down the graphics. Don't download the hd graphics dlc. Use the Boston FPS aio mod in the mods menu. Runs fine.

Wow thats relieving to hear. Could u post your full specs if u have time?

Honestly? You're better off buying a console.

It kinda plays the same at the end - your farming legendary enemies for legendary weapons.
you can try mods out, but if your under it wouldn't be worth it to fry your system for one game - which can be buggy at times - vanilla crashes and loads a lot on higher end PC's

I loathe replies like this. If you cant answer the damn question then maybe consider shutting up. If i could afford a console i wouldnt be here playing on my work laptop.

Yeah I gotta do a gunzerker run to finish up achievements - Only character I haven't touched yet.

Right now I wouldn't be able to - I'm trying to finish up this for achievements before modding - I have Snowrunner on the fritz - and a few achievements to do on FH4 - by the time I even get around to playing that again it'll be a long time.

Ultimately I would recommend heading over to BL2's forums and seeing if anyone's playing it - you could probably get into a session this afternoon/evening - depending on timezone.

ask ridiculous questions get ridiculous answers. You easily could have looked up info and applied critical thinking to the answer. Instead you decided to have others do it for you and opened yourself up to just as equally ridiculous responses.

I disagree. I am not here to deliberately waste my time. My question is reasonable because minimum requirements available online tend to be inaccurate very often. Its especially true for an unstable game like Fallout 4. It makes sense to look out for someone who have actually played the game with similar specs to mine and im confused what exactly did i ask others to do for me?

My critical thinking is that its not a good idea to waste money on games I cant run. Maybe you have money to burn but i dont.

That was exactly my reasoning in getting a console.

To be fair you get less capable mods, but apart from that you get better price:performance from a console.
