Homefront and the m11x (Question)

splitmind54 · 03-14-2011, 04:41 PM

Hey all!

I was just wondering if anyone knows if Homefront will be able to be played on the m11x. And, before you tell me to go to system requirements lab, I did. But, that site never has my "rig" specs correct. I.e. it claimed I couldn't even play Dragon Age 2, or BFBC2, and I play them both just fine. If anyone has any input on whether or not the M11x can play, please help. Thanks in advance

Thanks. I realize all this. I guess I was wondering if anyone knows how it runs on the m11x.

It's pretty simple, if you don't meet the minimum requirements it's probably not going to be playable.

It's not the computer itself, it's the specs, you can have an alienware M11x or an Asus with the same specs and they will both run the same.

Thanks once again. I think I'm mainly a bit confused because of the CPU speed and what not. On plenty of games it says my speed doesn't fit, and it runs the games just fine. I don't quite get it.

Have you tried going to http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/ thats what I use when I am unsure of a game requirements. Hope it helps...

splitmind54 · 03-14-2011, 05:09 PM

Yes I have thank you. It never gets my specs right. Lol. That's why I asked this question. Thanks for all the input guys. I appreciate it!

Oh you did say you already went there. I just realized that the copy paste was the name of site you tried. Maybe this will help someone els as well then. Good luck and see you on the Homefront

splitmind54 · 03-14-2011, 05:17 PM

Hahaha. I can't tell if you were being sarcastic or not. Lol. But, truthfully, thanks for all your help guys. I'll give it a shot!

Mike2839 · 03-14-2011, 05:18 PM

I have an M17x and is it getting your graphics card wrong? Or another spec?

stevenxowens792 · 03-14-2011, 05:31 PM

@Splitmind54 - please go out and google notebookreview forums. You will see their is an alienware forum and a m11x subforum. Post there for help once the game releases. We do a lot of work to optimize Alienware notebooks. Also, in your case it will depend if your M11x is a R1 or R2.

Good Luck,

StevenX
