You guys are still forgetting that a mobile CPU is not as strong as a desktop CPU. We have, Phone CPU's, Mobile(Laptop) CPU's, Desktop CPU's. Here's what I'm trying to say. Take a generic quad core for all 3 platforms. Phone, Mobile, Desktop. Same specs for the CPU and everything. No matter what, the Mobile CPU will always be superior to the Phone CPU just as the Desktop CPU will always be superior to the Mobile CPU. Same with the GPU's. Unless I'm proven wrong by a benchmark (I really want to see one because it's interesting.) |

I doubt you could get those graphics on a 1 GHz desktop. Isn't the processor power also about transistors and stuff too? |

He explained it very clearly. I'll try to find it. --- Quote from: beachbum111111 on January 20, 2013, 02:36:31 PM ---I actually have an iPad 2. --- End quote --- Still. That's like telling people with a iPad to buy a Surface for $500 just to play an app. |

If you can't run the game well on your current desktop computer, you will not be able to run it at ALL on a mobile device. Simple as that. Mobile devices simply do not have the processing and display power to run the game. --- End quote --- It can be done. Granted, shaders would have to be disabled and the game would suck if you weren't on wifi, but it can definitely be done. Blockland without any fancy effects is written in a game engine that was designed for a 2001 game. Phones are faster than 2001 computers now, so it would definitely have the processing power. That said, the game would have to undergo many changes, making it no where near a priority for Badspot. |
