for all you tech-savvy players...I am contemplating buying an I-pad air (but one of the earlier generations to save money). Mainly for traveling, cuz my laptop just gets too heavy and cumbersome. So, the question is, will I be able to play BW2 on it? Raymond,I know you have had problems with your notebook, but is that different than the I-pads? Any info would be helpful before I make the purchase!

I had a Motorola Xoom 2, Bush Whacker 2 was barely playable (compared to my desktop).
The biggest problem was harvesting. I 'hit' the tractor and the tablet instantly
'locked-up'.
I think only an expensive tablet or a laptop can run BW 2 comfortably.

Yeah, most tablets just do not have the memory and cpu to handle this size of a flash game.

Keep in mind:

IPads do not natively support Flash. There are apps which allow you to get around this, but we do not officially support/develop with them in mind.

That being said, they are fantastic if you do a lot of travel and don't need to lug a machine around for work. I have a MS Surface which I use primarily for work, but it's light enough that I carry it and my iPad (along with my 3DS and other gear) whenever I travel!

arrrggghhh...that's what I was afraid of! Glad I didn't buy one--playing my games is one of the reasons I bring my laptop while traveling. Thanks for all your help!

I'm glad this was caught in time, Ruth. I got my tablet on a 2 year plan, and only just discovered a browser to play BW2 in, with 8 months left on contract.
