Hi Guys

My PC is getting updated at the moment, so I am playing this game on my Daughters laptop which is a an ASUS Vivobook with a Intel Core i3, which I would of thought that this game would run no problem, my issue is when I load the game (via Steam) it stutters when loading as if the graphics card cant handle the game, but if I uninstall it and reinstall it, then launch the game it runs without any problems, but as soon as I save the game then return to it I get the same problem, I have checked the Steam forum but cant find anyone who have had the same problem, any help gratefully recieved

Cheers#
SAFC

A Core i3 is a really low end processor. How old is the computer? If it's one of the older Core i3 processors, it might not be enough. Does this computer have a stand alone card or is it integrated into that low end processor? The hardware specs are pretty low for this game, but if the computer has integrated graphics, that could be the problem.

Hi Draclvr

They
Laptop is less than a year old, so I do t thing that’s the problem, as I said it plays fine until I save and then when I go to continue the game this is when it starts to play up; I’ve got my pc back now so I will finish the game on it, cheers for your help

Cheers

It's still probably the integrated graphics which even in the newer Core i3's isn't enough for anything but casual gaming.

But glad you got your own PC back, so onwards on that computer!
