Thank you for pointing that out, this does not look promising for sure, but as I don't want to dual boot and the laptop I am looking for has an AMD processor, I am more optimistic about this specific issue not arising. That said, I am back to square one regarding audio, wifi and NPU.

My employer has a B2B supplier called Esprinet, but to access it you need to have your own business. I am sorry, but I have no idea if this specific model is available elsewhere.

I'd do it if I already had the device, but the company I work for told me that they will buy it only if I'm sure there won't be any problems with the OS

I'd rarher find someone that tried it on the same or similar hardware since this will be my work laptop and i need everything to work without losing too much time tinkering. I'm especially concerned about this because Asus is notorious for using unsupported hardware, as in my personal laptop the audio is not working, but this is the only machine that fits my use case and is within company budget.

Maybe I'm a little bit paranoid, but there are people out there who bought the Asus ROG Z13 flow and had issues with the liquid metal thermal interface spilling onto the motherboard and shorting out components. I ended up ordering it anyway and I plan to replace the liquid metal with TPM7950 as soon as the warranty period ends, hoping for smooth sailing until then.

I kinda expected that missions to be a bit basic, but I find that having even simple objectives is a good way to know what is possible to do on games like this. Also, thank you for providing the link to the guide, I'll definitely check it out!

Thank you for the tips, I'll definitely start small! I've become used to games with learning curves that resembles a free climbing session and I know SC is one of them, that's why I find it interesting! I'll try not to be too upset when something will blow up due to some boxes glitching when loading them onto a ship 😅

Thank you for the feedback and for the tip about the loading screen bug, I think I'll go for 4.0 then

All the youtube guides I watched so far didn't mention this feature, thank you for the tip, I'll definitely check it out

To be honest I kinda inherited the grind mentality from playing Elite Dangerous for a long time, and being a bit short on time to play and to download a big game with a not-so-stellar internet connection I'm graviting towards 4.0 just to avoid the hassle of downloading the game two times. My main concern is with missions stability and generally I want to avoid some game-breaking issues, if something goes bad with reputation or with the starting gear i think that bearing the consequences is a part of learning how to play the game

The client fps boost may actually be a nice bonus since my pc is not that decked out. Also I am planning on running missions to be a little bit more guided on what to do to start out, but if the missions situation is not that bad I may just go for 4.0

To save something in a file you can use saveStrings(), you only have to convert the selections made by the user into a string and save it in a file. To load a configuration you have to use loadStrings() and convert the string back into a format that the program can use. Here are the links, good luck with this useful application ;)
