It's a Core M3, although running at 7 watts instead of 4.5 (with a cheeky undervolt on cpu & gpu to help keep the heat down).

Minor caveat is that I'm running it at min details on 1680 x 1050 (native is 1900x1200, bit too much out of a HD515), and have to keep the maps to duel/tiny/small unless I want to wait too long at late game for turns (three opponents is fine), but apart from that it's more than playable.

If things get a bit too manic in the information ages onwards with units all over the shop, I tend to chuck it into strategy view to finish; switching out for the occasional pretty nuclear mushroom of course.

Anyway, works great. If you have - I suppose - something like a Surface 4 you ought to be golden.

You have the 6y30, same as me. I did a thermal mod on my tablet so I could maybe up the wattage a bit, the default is 7 watts.

gently caress, I've been Civ free for more than a year, this'll be a challenge.

I wish people would recognize that we're all a little bit obsessed. Does SC have any bearing on my Actual Real Life Activities? No. But I read the thread, post buns, shitpost, emptyquote, and laugh at this fiasco. And I'm okay with that.

The idea that these people on Reddit somehow feel like they're normal is preposterous. Crikey. Keeeeripes, man. Wowzers. Yikes. Christ on his golden throne. Sheesh.

He lost a dance-off to someone better and never really got over it.

There were two guys in full stilt exoskeleton suits cosplaying Optimus and Megatron at Comic Con SD this year, having an actual dance off with their helmets (”heads”) off, next to a blacklatteface Michael Jackson with a boombox built into a white Smooth Criminal suit.

For all its nerdiness - the best con moment i've ever seen.

On topic, did we ever get any resolution of the rumour that gravity in Star Citizen is restricted to on plane when not in a ship? IE that there's a universal gravitational North between all map locations that would basically preclude spherical planets?

This is my favorite word in the English language when proceeded by a "You", nothing else quite conveys it's meaning with such direct severity and no other word can cause such grief amongst members of polite society.

Add it to any sentance to immediately gain the complete and undivided attention of all cunts who are within earshot. :)

Gravity will be in alpha for the next 4 years at least. It's not a very important aspect to prioritize at the moment, given that they need to model all the weapons and ships first.

Shitizens are giving millions a month to a dev team that can't figure out how to do incremental patching to their game. After trying to implement it for 4 years, and even after hiring a special developer to work on their patcher exclusively. Let that sink in.
