I appreciate having at least the option of a Cider client. I don’t think it’s feasible to expect a native Mac client unless it’s done in lockstep with the first expansion. I don’t know how they could build a Mac client from the ground up and keep it synced with the PC version after the fact. I’m not aware of an MMO that’s done that successfully without going with a wrapper. Blizzard has been producing games on both Mac and PC at launch for awhile now.
Blizzard is doing it my friend. WoW definitely didn’t came out at launch on Mac.

Again look at Blizzard. They realized that Mac user group is growing and will keep growing. Can play WoW, Diablo, Starcraft all thesee in native clients. I’m repeting myself again but Cider is not the way to go and never will be. Love GW2 and would leave WoW directly if or when GW2 will have native client for Mac. its still in beta and I honestly hope that Cide will be only in beta. Performance with Cider is just way to poor to enjoy the game.

Its very simple Cider is absolutely not the way to go. I love GW2 and would love to play it on my iMac (mid 2011). You should take a look at Blizzard, WoW and Diablo 3 runs perfectly on my Mac thanks to native clients. Would love to continue to play GW2, but as it is now performance with Cider is just to bad. I know that Mac client is still in beta but i really hope that its not your final intents to go with Cider, we need native Mac client, i hope your a listening to us players.
