    Late game start? (and game's requirements)

    So, I was thinking about trying Aigis again after finishing exams season (lol free time ftw), but just wanted to know your opinion guys about starting Aigis at this point.

    Since I had serious browser freezing issues with Aigis, I have absolutely no idea about how advanced Aigi's metagame currently is (just made it to the firt part of the tutorial during previous attempts, dropped the first soldier and got the game freezing), nor its time-demanding level, so your opinion would be really appreciated.

    Also, recommended system/browser settings to run this game are also welcome.



    ...yeah, kinda weird to ask for requirements for a browser game in 2015, but somehow I have problems with Aigis which I don't have with LoV nor PPS.

    time-demanding level
    Aigis is a non-competitive game. Completely single player. You can take it entirely at your own pace, or you can try and keep up with events. Which right now is very easy to do.
    At first, you can sit and play quite a bit, but once you start gaining levels, you get more time to sit and wait for char to regenerate.

    recommended system/browser
    I play in chrome. I don't freeze or crash ever, but it does slowdown a bit outside of maps. Disable hardware acceleration if you are having too much issues. I've also played in Opera, which is much smoother - but recently both in and out of maps, I've been occasionally unable to select anything, or place units. As if it wasn't registering my clicks.

    Whatever you do, do not use firefox. Nutaku say they support Chrome and Chrome only. However, my better success with Opera makes me wonder what kind of support they really give Chrome, so i'd recommend Opera. As Kotono said, disable hardware acceleration, it was a cause of lag for me for a long while til i figured it out.

    I'd recommend reading the beginner guide at the wiki Beginner Guide - Millennium War Aigis Wiki it has some "do not do this unless you want to be crippled" stuff in it from different experienced players, and i recently overhauled it to make it more easy to read.

    That's odd because I use internet explorer when I'm on my laptop and it runs considerably smoother than chrome on my pc. Could just be that my laptop is faster because it doesn't have as many things on it though. I can confirm that IE (11) does work pretty nice. Also is anyone else getting an error when trying to play?

    Last time I tried on IE, the game crashed almost immediately when I started the map.

    Thanks for your answers!

    I was avoiding using Chrome for Nutaku stuff 'cause it's my main browser and from time to time I need to show web-based stuff to others for studies/work reasons, so I'm actually using IE11 'cause I don't need to use it for serious stuff, and the few times other people gets to use my laptop, nobody even try to use IE xDDD lol
    It's a safe bet, also LoV and PPS runs really fine. Only having issues with Aigis, but reading CSocktaters's answer made me think that maybe my laptop just can't handle that game with IE, so I'll try with Chrome or Opera as Kotono and Tenhou suggested.

    By the way, it's good to know that Aigis isn't a competitive game. I was worried about missing unique stuff from events and rankings. PPS is quite demanding in that sense, so I'll read those Aigis guides and as soon as I finish my exams season, I'll join u guys at Aigis

    Chrome and Opera use the same engine, so kinda makes sense that the game runs good in both, but with different performances.
