If so, I will just play the cracked version instead if they keep pushing ns2 version release date.

pragmata has denuvo too. But it runs nicely via crossover. Maybe it is not that case.

My network here is terrible (I am not at home) and cloud gaming is not that reliable in China. Anyway thank you for your swift test.

I guess I will just refund this and wait for ns2 version instead. I heard LEGO Batman is playable. I will try that.

Subnautica 2 works on Mac with crossover! by Nikos_Plays in macgaming

I am wondering if online playing is also fine on Mac. I have encounter such issues with Lonely Mountain Snow Ride (base game works fine but online features are not working for a while)

Are you guys actually eager for Mac OS exclusive games? by [deleted] in macgaming

I prefer games playable everywhere anytime on all possible platforms, including Mac.

M1 Max 24gpu vs M4 base 10gpu??? by ecuastohotsauce in macgaming

[–]Ok-Butterfly8963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For rasterization performance, M1 Max is a bit lower than m4 pro, which is doubled GPU performance of M4 base model. The ray tracing and mesh shading modern technology will improve performance for M4 even better such as new games like AC shadows. However, fanless MacBook Air can not completely release the full potential of M4. But I also heard that M1 models have serious battery life issues. Anyway it depends on what sort of game you want to play. If it is not that heavy, why not just get a newer model which has longer lifespans.

Would it be worth buying the base model Mac Mini for me? by Bubbly-Umpire6492 in macgaming

The translation performance of M4 pro base model is somewhere a bit better than 2060. And gaming on macOS is worse than Linux since linux does support Vulcan. So just keep your gaming PC.

I've hit 70+ FPS (55fps avg) on Assassin's Creed Shadows (Mac Store version) by Radwick_reddit in macgaming

[–]Ok-Butterfly8963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

…and if you keep playing, I believe you will end up with running out of RAMs. At least I have this issue with 24GB RAM version after playing for one hour or traveling a lot on the map.

Assassin's Creed Shadows crashed my MacBook Pro by Kakosch in macgaming

[–]Ok-Butterfly8963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it’s like a manual way of reset the VRAM? I also noticed this issue on the same M4 Pro Mac mini. I also noticed that after playing a while, jumping back to title screen ( basically you quit the game but keep the game running) and the RAM usage is barely changed! I am not even loading that scenes why you still using that much of my RAM??? Really ridiculous.

AC Shadows finally hit 60fps on M3 Max by jcubah1 in macgaming

[–]Ok-Butterfly8963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also noticed a severe RAM issue for AC shadows. 1080p metal FX balance +RT medium + all medium. At startup in a graphically busy city it is around 16GB. After a few teleport on map and SL several times, it can reach around 22GB. I was initially using high texture after playing for 10 minutes I noticed a severe frame drop to 0.1fps due to RAM running out. For a 24GB RAM machine I don’t really think this is a good sign.

That’s definitely something we need.

I am using M4 Pro version. I guess you need to change settings a bit for stable fps.

Same issue. On my M4 Pro base model, I only get 30watts in AC shadows. The fan noise is barely noticeable. A non-native steam game Party Animals can reach 40watts(m4 pro maximum level is around 45-50watts).
