So... Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes came out, and the system requirements for that game were published without mentioning laptop chipsets and surprisingly, the game runs flawlessly on my laptop (870M) 60FPS\1080p lowering just a couple of settings from Extra High to High.
It's like they decided to ship a game that's working on all platforms! Crazy, right?
I don't dig the "Laptops are not supported, f*** y'all" approach. I know you're not one of the developers or connected to EA directly, but you trying to dismiss us saying these thing not only discourages me from buying EA products or using Origin, but from asking questions in forums like these.
It's clear that they don't give a * about laptop users or care for them, and at this point it's just saddens me to see these "Ha Ha, u got laptaps, u suck, hurr di hurr" BS.
And Nvidia is to blame as well - creating great mobile chipsets without backing them with support (come on, the 980M is stronger than most desktop cards).
My next PC will definitely won't be a laptop.
Also - Nado, did you get any response from EA on that matter?

No response. I'm going to try and get a refund for the game and then buy an Xbox One. Laptops have and probably will be a low priority in gaming for the forseeable future unfortunately.
