Game and computer freeze upon fully loading in since update 3/7

[13thapostle]

Just as the title says. I click on the server, load in like normal and everything loads. As soon as it gets to the beach to stand up my computer screen goes white on one half, static on the other and freezes. Im on an iMac, version 10.11.6, Retina 5k, 27in, 3.2GHz intel Core i5, 16gb 1867 MHz DDR3, AMD Radeon R9 M390 2048 MB.

Please don't comment if all you want to say is get a PC. Im aware of the stigma with macs. Ive put 3500 hours in on this game specifically on this computer. There have been issues in the past and will be more to come. I just want to know if other mac users or pc users are having this issue after this most recent update and if anyone has any ideas about it. thank you.

The most recent update moved the Mac client from OpenGL to Metal. With such a major change happening all in one go, some things breaking can be expected.

Make absolutely sure you are not launching Rust with -force-opengl as a startup parameter now or else it will definitely break Rust on Macs.
