I’ve had issues with Mac crashes and seen reports since HoT release. I’ve been forced to download multiple updates since release, but the problem has not been helped one bit. What’s the status of Mac updates?

I crash out a couple of times an hour, usually when zoning in, when scrolling around in the map, or when a bunch of action starts happening on screen.

The final straw was trying to continue with the story line tonight. I went through the absolutely unpleasant grind to master mushroom jumping — having evidently made a non-abet-approved choice to pursue updraft gliding earlier — and was then able to continue the story, but it turns out that if I die in any puzzle, when I try to return to a checkpoint, I crash out to the login screen and have to start the entire thing all over again.

I have to put up with the long, un-bypassable monologues, and perform each puzzle perfectly and one mistake and I have to start all over again. That’s perfectly poor design in the first place — there should be no problem with logging or disconnecting at checkpoints — but it’s doubly frustrating since ANet seems to be doing nothing about these issues.
