Guild Wars 2

Will HoT be out on Mac?
Can i please get a Dev confirmation! Thank You!

Another Mac Beta user would like to know about this as well.

Ahh! I didn’t even think about this. I would really like to know too. I’ll cry if not.

Hi again,

I also wonder until when this ‘Beta’ becomes the real deal.
Weird that I have been playing his game by purchasing it, but it was still in Beta…
HoT Beta on GW2 Mac Beta…?

It’s not a new game, it’s only an expansion.

I guess that if you were able to play the living story chapters on Mac, HoT will be playable on it too.

Are MAC users still in Beta?

I’m sure they’ll have a mac “version”, but if the performance is in any way worse than the current mac client, you’ll need a mac from 5 years in the future to get decent frame rates.

I really wish they’d stop using Cider.

Since the Mac Beta is basically a Wine wrap, and the core game engine is already available and HoT is an expansion, I am more than 99% confident we Mac players will get to play HoT.

Yes, it’s still in Beta, though the term ‘Beta’ is a rather loose term now since we don’t usually get any more problems than a regular PC user does.

Will the mac version finally get out of beta with HoT?
The Mac cider client is really unstable atm and crashes all the time in large boss fights or WvW zergs fights.

No, it has already been confirmed that the gw2 mac beta has been performing poorly and HoT will not be releasing on Makittenil at least 2-3 years later.

I wish i had bought a PC gaming laptop instead of a MacBook Air. My frame rates suck so bad i have to play on pretty much the lowest settings.

Can you show where it can be confirmed? And by who?

There is no confirmation of this.

I’m on Mac and I managed to successfully enter the HoT Beta with virtually no difference to performance as everyone else who was in there, Mac or PC player. It is a cider wrap that works, albeit a bit slower than a native PC client.

To be honest, probably not out of Beta ever. However, as I said earlier (Don’t know if it was this post or a similar one) it being called a beta is a fairly loose term, since we’re not really getting that many more problems than PC users really (in general).
