I'm playing in a laptop that has all the requirements except the graphic card. It seems I need an Nvidia card instead of the paltry Intel HD Graphics one, which I can't remove from a laptop. It's hard enough playing with a touchpad, so I use a Dell USB mouse I found around the house. First thing I notice is the input lag. I can still play with it, but the camera suddenly goes upwards and spins around. This issue has frustrated me in every way possible. I tried changing every options, putting the graphic options on low to no avail. This is why I just prefer a console. You just need your trusty controller instead of going out there and buying the best and most expensive gamepad or mouse. And I prefer its simplicity. It's a real plug-and-play. Sure, it has nice graphics, but that doesn't mean anything to an Average Joe like me if it can't play properly. |
There's no argument that on a console, unless the game is really shitty, you have a guarentee that everything will work smoothly. However I do think your experience was more bad luck, probably both on the hardware side of things and software, then a representation on how gaming on a PC is like. The only time I've personally had an input problem on a PC is when I was using a mouse I bought from the dollar store, I got what I paid for.
Also if PC is the only way to absolutely play Warframe and if you haven't tried already it won't hurt to try to plug in a DS3 or 4 and see if it works, from my experience it's fairly responsive.
