I've been playing on my laptop Mac Tibook since I bought the game in Aug 2003. Much easier with my trackball plugged in though.

I've been using a laptop (only comp I have) to play tt. It's diffucult, like I tried it on a regular comp. And I sucked. So when I get a regular computer(Soon) I'll have to learn to adjust cause right now I use my left hand to steer(arrow keys) and my right pointer finger to aim and my middle finger to fire. Give that a try and tell me what ya think!(Using the controls like I do, that is!)

When I try to play on my laptop, I have a tough time with the trackpad. I usually use an eMac, but when on the road, I have an iBook. I keep touching the trackpad with my left thumb while steering (WSAD) and lose my aim constantly,

I should get a mouse for the laptop...

It really sucks doesn't it! I only have the touchpad thats it no external mouse or anything!!! But I manage to be pretty good

I'm actually better with the touchpad my aim is much more accurate.

@BluebomberX

I'd like to know how you keep from accidentally tapping it while your driving. Do you use arrow keys or WSAD?

LGM - do you have an abnormally large thumb? Mine doesn't even reach anywhere near the trackpad on my iBook.

If you have a new model TiBook, you can turn on a feature in the keyboard preferences that says something around the lines of 'Ignore confusing keypad commands,' so when you accidently tap the touchpad quickly, it would ignore it. :)

@Spunky

Not a big thumb, but maybe uncoordinated... I already had the ignore accidental input turned on. Thanks, though.

Hats off to all u laptop users out there! Hey you guys who arent used to using a track pad, you can purchase a mouse thats compatible with your laptop. It makes the game a lot easier to play. Laptop users rock for they perserviere through the toughest scrum and battlemode matches without complaining about their lousy track pad. Hats off suckers! B)
