  WGT is a for profit business. I bet their profit margin is a lot smaller than you think it is. At any rate, each player gets to decide if they do or don't want to contribute to WGT's coffers.

  You don't need a fast Internet connection. My Internet connection is only 3 mbps.

  While you don't necessarily need a fast computer, you do need a well maintained computer and browser that have minimal cached junk and useless files clogging up the memory - like temporary internet files, a lot of browsing/download history, form autofill data, tons of unused cookies and other plug-in data. yada, yada, yada.

  What are the system requirements to play this game?

  • Flash Player version 11.4 or higher (Get the latest version here)
  • Chrome users: Learn how to disable Pepper Flash here.
  • DSL-speed internet connection or faster
  • 2GHz processor or faster
  • 1GB RAM or higher, preferably 2GB or higher
  • 1024x768 screen resolution or higher, preferably 1280x800 or higher
  • Please check our forum post on how to optimize your system for the latest information.
  • Systems not meeting the recommended requirements may experience the occasional swing meter stutter or hesitation. Some players will experience improved performance using newer versions of Flash. If this is not the case and you experience more overall stutters or freezes, we recommend rolling back to previous versions of Flash.
  • We support the following desktop* browsers:
    • Internet Explorer 10 and higher (Get the latest version here)
    • Firefox 24 and higher (Get the latest version here)
    • Chrome 30 and higher (Get the latest version here)
    * Mobile versions of these browsers may work, but are not officially supported

   

  apex i agree on a well maintained pc..

  who would i rather play someone on a phone or someone on a laptop or pc..

  pc and laptop gets my vote every time..

  all i want is a fluent game without slow connections disconnections wgt errors and the time it takes to get back into a game..

  i do not think i will get that playing someone on a phone..

  that's my rant over and done with

  cheers steve

  First asked in 2013. It is August of 2016. Firefox has announced that Adobe "Crash" is going to be going away. WHEN WILL WE BE ABLE TO PLAY ON ANDROID PLATFORMS & WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ADOBE "CRASH" GOES AWAY??

  How about re-investing a little of your profit to help your customers -- -- -OH, I forgot to whom I was speaking..........

  Android - For some time been a mobile version that you simply download the app.  Whether you think it as good or even close is another matter.  

  Flash (PC) - No clue how long they can keep going on that format.  Google are dumping it, and I think Edge did and so did safari??......Had it's life cycle one would think, but how long this place can go with it no clue.
