Q:

When last was GW2 Beta Client Updated for OSX?

This is a question for the devs because if you run gw2 beta client through imac alone and no other way, it crashed randomly including in PVP therefore leading to desertion, dishonor and potential loss of pip.

This is not Apple’s fault! I am not a fan of Apple but on this occasion the actual problem lies with the beta client!

Looking forward to a response.

It may help them to post which mac machine you are on? Also it may be better to post in one of the support forums rather than the pvp one.

I got a maxed out (but no dedicated graphics card) 2015 15" macbook pro from work last week and I’ve been playing pvp on it when I’m out and about with no issues.

Yup. I’m a Mac player too and the random crashes in pvp were quite irritating. It’s just ironic considering that one of the reasons I bought gw2 in the first place was that it could be run on Mac, unlike most games/MMOs/mobas in general, but even then it’s still a crappy experience.
