RE: Suggestion to all: How to define "Playable"
Playable is currently defined as if the game tends to work relatively bug free on desktop platforms (Windows/Linux/Mac), with a recent version. If there are no desktop reports for a game working or not working, we default to Android, if it's working or not. Desktops get higher priority because mobile devices vary so wildly in hardware and compatibility (every device can have its own quirks, while PCs tend to stay somewhat consistent in behaviour (most ATI cards work the same, most NVidia cards work the same as other NVidia cards, etc.), even with different GPU vendors and CPU makers). While it's nice that some games work 'perfectly' on older versions, I'd say we tend to be more concerned with having games work on newer versions to increase overall compatibility.
If Henrik or [Unknown] want to chime in too, that's fine. I'm just giving my take on the matter. With all that said, it'd probably make more sense to have 2 compatibility lists, if we ever get a wiki type system set up, one for mobiles and one for desktops. They vary too much to have a unified list.. 4GHz AMD 3900X, 32GB DDR4 RAM, 6GB Nvidia RTX 2060, Asus Crosshair 7 Hero (Wifi), Linux How to ask useful questions: https://web.archive.org/web/20110214010944/http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 I'm not Dark_Alex, nor do I claim to be. Our nicknames are merely coincidence. |
