Play Naval Action Beta x86

[Jon Allen]

When I go to play now my options are Naval Action Beta and Naval Action Beta x86.

 

What's the difference?

x86 version are needed for those players who experience issues with launching the game under x64 mode, if you have none of them, don't bother launching x86 version

Technically x86 simply refers to a family of processors and the instruction set they all use. It doesn't actually say anything specific about data sizes. The term x86 started out as a 16-bit instruction set for 16-bit processors (the 8086 and 8088 processors), then was extended to a 32-bit instruction set for 32-bit processors (80386 and 80486), and now has been extended to a 64-bit instruction set for 64-bit processors. It used to be written as 80x86 to reflect the changing value in the middle of the chip model numbers, but somewhere along the line the 80 in the front was dropped, leaving just x86.
