Peoples said that 17~18w 900p is the most optimum setup for Ally.. Maybe you should try it.

Hey, thanks for testing this on the ROG Ally. I haven't seen anyone testing this handheld. Did you have an issue launching the game at first?

[@JC_Gaming3333]

@@balkadeer6690 I personally haven’t had any issues launching the game. I do know there’s been some server issues on and off, so if you’ve been having problems getting it, it “could” be because of that?

Hey you recommend rog ally or steam deck ?

[@JC_Gaming3333]

For this game, or just in general?

@@JC_Gaming3333 well i want to play this game but i supposed in general

[@JC_Gaming3333]

@@marcorossoni7425 I know this isn’t the best answer, but it really depends on what else you intend to play. If you’re wanting to play games that are dependent on Windows (Call of Duty, Destiny 2, playing games via Game pass) then go the ROG ally. If not, I’d honestly consider the Steam deck oled.

Dude why tf are you not using the Ally’s higher watt mode? It literally takes 2 secs to turn it on. You purposely chose to play at worse FPS?

[@JC_Gaming3333]

After the 15w mode, I also did gameplay at the 30w mode. Next time I'll show the 25w unplugged as well.

Damn this looks ROUGH.
