my laptop use to play mxs really easily but for some reason it has got really lagging and the sound keeps crackling thru the speakers as if it cant play the game anymore, i have reduced the number of programmes running on the cpu but what else could it be? has a recent update massively changed the games requirements?? how can i speed my laptop up or clean it for free or cheaply? liek any programmes i can use?
thank alot

CPUs on a laptop usually arnt good enough to play this game. I have 2 laptops and neither will play the game smoothly.

Not necessarily.
That's like saying all laptops are the same.
My brothers laptop runs this game 3 times better than my desktop.

You might be running a dodgy sized skin. Check that all of your skins only have dimensions of 1024 or 512 pixels

Still, that's saying the majority won't.
Really, the vast majority of desktops won't either, so they are about the same. It's still grouping them all together, buy saying, it might be the best laptop ever, but it's probably not going to work, because usually it doesn't.
It's really not dependent on a desktop or a laptop, but more about what year it was made in.
