![]() ![]() I’m currently playing GW2 in a M1 Mac using Big Sur and Monterey beta. I also couldn't get the 64-bit version to work at all so far. ![]() Didn't really change anything as far as I can see. Also feel free to use this thread to speak about compatibility with modern macOS in general, regardless of Intel or Apple chip.Įdit: I now updated to CrossOver 21. I'm not sure how I can do this in CrossOver and if it would help at all with performance or the crashing issue. I'd also be interested in trying out the 64-bit version, as it seems to me that currently the 32-bit version is used (the application icon in the Dock says "wine32on64" at least). Has anyone been able to find a way to work around this? So I'm restarting the game every hour or so when possible in order to minimize losing progress. On low graphics settings the game runs mostly smooth enough (up to ~50 FPS) but crashes on me after a while. Personally I've been playing on my M1 Mac installed via the CrossTie profile. Certainly with the new expansion coming out soonish. Also with ArenaNet no longer offering an official Mac version of the game, I feel like there might be some people coming back to CrossOver now looking for ways to keep playing. Looking at the forum, all threads are quite old now and most of the advice seems to be not really applicable. Your results may vary if you’ve upgraded or changed your Mac hardware or are running on lower hardware specifications.I wanted to open a thread so everyone can share their experiences and maybe tips and tricks about playing Guild Wars 2 on modern Macs with up-to-date operating systems. *The Mac beta version of Guild Wars 2 runs well on the below machines or better. ![]() NVIDIA® GeForce® 320M, ATI Radeon™ HD 6630M, Intel HD 3000 or better If you can’t wait to play with your Windows friends, at least you have an option now. Keep in mind, this is a beta, so things probably won’t work perfectly. For details, you can check out the Mac FAQ and visit the Mac section of the Guild Wars 2 forum. When all the beta testing is complete, the Mac version will be sold at retail, and that includes Windows support as well - no additional fee or subscription. You need to be running Lion or Mountain Lion on fairly recent hardware, but it looks like most Macs made from mid-2010 onward should run the beta with no problem. If you’re already a paid Guild Wars 2 player, you can go to the Account Management section of the website, and download the beta Mac client. Are you a Guild Wars 2 fan? Want to play it on your Mac? Well, now you can - sorta. ![]()
