Crappy Laptop + Linux

Mess Room
1

I have to head up North to the Old Country over the weekend for a family emergency.

I’ve decided to take my crappy old laptop with me (i3 6100, 8GB RAM, Intel HD GFX) that runs Linux so I can at the very least login to keep my daily streak going.

I fired up Enlisted earlier on it, but the game crashes out hard after less than a minute. It’s full of D3D and Vulkan errors.

I eventually managed to click the dailies button before it crashed out, and it seemed to register, thankfully.

I’ve gone into the config file and reduced whatever settings I could find to Low (from Medium).

Is there anything else I can do to make the main menu stable, even for a minute or two?

I don’t need to play the game, just login. Any ideas here from our Linux/Potato PC folks would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance. :slight_smile:

Get the devs to remove the reset on daily logins…it should always be cumulative in order to get the anniversary name markers…log in for 365 days, get it…I take vacations. I’ve been playing for 1.5 years and my streak was just reset to 86 after the"unplanned maintenance".

That doesn’t help at all. It’s not like I have any sway with the devs.

Really? Even as a Forum Moderator? How about with Community Managers…they might. I feel for you not wanting to lose the streak…It’s ridiculous that we do.

It’d be nice if forum access would count towards it, but I understand how it goes.

Hopefully I’ll be able to have enough time to click the Rewards button before the game crashes.

As mentioned, it seemed to register earlier, so there’s that.

I play on the cloud, Nvidia GeForce NOW. It has a free tier and you can play games through the cloud in your web browser too. Should be enough for that.

Okay, now this is something.

I’ve signed up.

This might work. Thanks chap.

I’ll let you all know if it works.

I play through their desktop app, but it should work. Good luck!

try running the game through Geforce now, more then ideal for keeping the daily login even when you are away on vacation.

i would guess old driver version?
also are you playing through steam. steam+proton usually helps with games on linux. gaming on linux is sketchy and even opening the game can be a chore. that is why like people before i recommend geforce now.

Have you tried deleting everything you can off your laptop? It might give you a chance :+1:
