Guild Wars 2

I’m on a Mac and using a second monitor. If you guys aren’t going to give Macs a real version could you at least give us 1920×1080 WINDOWED option? Can I expect a ‘Metal’ version in the future?

No, the game isn’t really a beta either.

The reason Anet calls this client a beta is because it’s a cider port and not actually a Mac application. So when the Mac client performs worse then the Windows client (which it always does) they can fall back on the term beta. I don’t think we will ever see a full native Mac client since the cost is just way too high.

This pretty much just cuts Metal there, I don’t think a wrapper could take advantage of Metal as much if at all compared to a Native Mac client. What we have here is what GW2 will always be on the Mac. A second thought that won’t change, only slug along with the Windows client.

Guess we can say we’re lucky to even have a cider port.
