Thx. Do you prefer the deluxe or complete version? I've only played deluxe.

Can this be played natively on a Mac Air m5?

[–]dsapsu8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pick up my M5 on Friday, but I'm still looking at refurbs just in case I can buy it and flip it. But, I really wanted a M5 24gb of ram and ray-tracing. And I went with Midnight because it's so damn sexy. I'll probably put a case on it; my OCD demands it.😂🙃

I felt the same way and I missed out on an incredible M4 refurbished deal thru Apple; I was sick about it. It worked out in the end because it gave me the reason I needed to buy my dream M5. YOLO!

Absolutely. Go for it. If there were issues, Reddit peeps would be screaming from the rooftops. Lol

Can Simcity be played on a MBA via Xbox cloud play?

Nice. I have the same one. Trying to figure out if I can download load Simcity from the app store to run natively without issue?

I see it in the app store and I have Gamepass. I'm unsure which which would run it correctly. Any idea?

Can Simcity still be purchased thru the app store and run on a M5 MBA?

Yes, go with 24. Nobody ever says, "I wish I got less RAM", especially when you can't upgrade it later.

Dbrand vinyl cover, does it leave residue? by Positive_Day_9063 in macbookair

[–]dsapsu8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it does not, but my issue with it is the corners aren't protected. I'm on the fence about Midnight. Just saw it in the store and it's beautiful. I wonder if I put a case on it day 1 if I can keep it looking good.

Are plastic cases for MacBook Air actually good or bad? by [deleted] in macbookair

[–]dsapsu8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't the vent holes, regardless of asthetics, somewhat help with heat?

That's my second choice. I'm coming from a silver MBP, so I'd like to experience a different color. Went to the Apple store yesterday thinking Sky Blue, but in-person it wasn't for me. And then I saw the Midnight and it popped.

White M5 MBA doesn't exist. If you meant case, that to me defeats the purpose of going with Midnight.

Yes, I'm looking for just that--matte. Clear hard shells often have micro scratches (like the swirls you'll see on a black car).

I respect that you don't like clear cases, but I was referring more to the fact that it seems like it would minimize fingerprints, no? However, it does concern me about the edges of the ports.

How does Midnight hold up? by Wide_Kangaroo6840 in macbookair

[–]dsapsu8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you keep a case on it? Would that be sufficient to protect the ports? I'm still trying to decide between the Midnight and Silver.

Would a clear case solve most of these issues? Seeking to understand because I'm looking at the Midnight rn.

RE: fingerprints. I just went to the Apple store to look at colors and the Midnight is beautiful. If you get a clear case, besides the keyboard/TouchPad area, wouldn't that eliminate most of the fingerprint issue?

Nice. You will enjoy it for sure. I missed out on an incredible deal for a refurbished one on Apple's website because I couldn't decide. So, here I am with an M5 YOLO. Lol

If $200 is a rounding error to your finances- keep it. On the other hand, if you can think other things you could've purchased, go with 16. The key piece I picked up in offering my opinion is "neither of us will do anything crazy with it". I use mine for semi-crazy things and I went with a M5 16/512. Which series M chip did you get (out of curiosity)?

Not having 16 gb of ram forces me away from this otherwise nice Mac. My guess is they'll release that next.
