- Identification software Doom: The dark age Chocas problems face in portable games PC
- The problem seems to come from obsolete drivers on hand computers with AMD Ryzen Z1 like Asus Rog Ally
- It seems that neither the AMD nor identification software are rewarded, but that portable PC suppliers such as Asus and Lenovo
The long wait for identification software Doom: The dark age Finally it ends, since the Premium edition, which provides two days of early access, is now available, but if you are using any PC for hand games with EMD, it is probably better to avoid for now.
As reported by our friends on PC Gamer, Doom: The dark age You cannot play on PC for portable games, in particular those used by the AMD Ryzen Z1 chips, due to constant blockages. This is evident in the video provided by PC Gamer, which sees that the game is blocked in seconds due to an AMD driver failure.
I can corroborate the same failure problems; While starting the game campaign was fine (in my Asus Rog Ally Z1 Extreme), the game did not take more than 10 seconds to stop. This would result in a black screen, with the still audible game in the background, or worse, artificing, however, the fault is not apparently in the identification software and its new title.
Since the game requires the last AMD Adrenalin 25.5.1 graphics controller, which is the first notice shown at the beginning, blockages are expected in these hand computers. And that points directly to the problem; The Allied Asus Rog and the Lenovo Legion used by the Ryzen Z1 extreme processors of AMD are more frequently executed in obsolete graphic controllers.
This lack of support from the driver of Asus and Lenovo has been a continuous problem since the launch of these hand computers, resulting in games that cannot be played at all or suffer frequent shocks, since they require new drivers to function well.
I’ve seen this occurs with games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and The last one part 2 – The first tends to have driver blockages in the ‘zombies’ mode of the game, and the results cannot be replicated on a PC for desktop games that have access to the latest controllers. It is leaving some hand players without a solution, since the lateral response (manually installing the newest controllers) does not always work, and can easily lead to the errors ‘Code 43’, which I found on numerous occasions.
This is one of the main reasons why my allied Asus Rog is accumulating dust
It is quite bad that Microsoft Windows 11 and other applications such as Armory Crate have numerous errors and slow response capacity; Involving the lack of driver support from portable PC suppliers literally prevents users from playing certain games.
You could also argue that Doom: The dark age Technically it is not even thrown (since it is early access), but these problems do not seem to come from the PC port. This is a support problem, and a quick look at the last graphics controller available on the ASUS Rog Ally Support Page will show you that the last controller at the time of the writing was in February earlier this year.
I am lucky to have a powerful game PC to immerse yourself in games with ease, but for those who bought a laptop with Ryzen Z1 engine to be your main game device, this is not good enough. Of course, nothing is perfect, but the devices that cost a lot should be supported at least in the long term.
