Hey guys. Bought the game yesterday. Before anyone asks, my setup is: Late 2013 iMac 16g RAM NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB 3.1GHz i7 I've started many different games on many different servers. When I first started to play, it would freeze within around 30 seconds of gameplay. Oddly enough, it seemed as though whenever I tried to equip something, it would freeze. Coincidence? Perhaps. After many attempts to start a game on different servers, I would end up getting stuck on "Waiting for Character" on the loading screen. So, I force quit the app, start everything back up again- and repeat. Finally I found myself in a server that would let me play for around 30 minutes uninterrupted- seemed great. Game looked awesome, great FPS, etc. Keep in mind, though, this is after around 2 hours of trying to even play the game/get into a server. For some reason, I thought I was in the clear. A bit later I tried again, and I am either getting stuck on the "Waiting for Character" loading portion, or it freezes almost instantly if- by some miraculous force- I am even able to start a game. My question to you is this- it seems as though most people are getting along running this game with little or small bugs, but few game ending crashes. Is it my setup? It qualifies to run it in spades- so I don't think that's the problem. However, I feel like everyone knows a workaround but me and I am stuck running (or lack thereof) something that sometimes, maybe, perhaps, kind of works. I realize this game is still in Alpha development- and I'm fine with small things and stability issues. However, I would still like to at least play the goddamned thing for at least 15 minutes without it crashing. Long story short- are there any other Mac users going through this? Is it specific to Mac or is it across the board? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys! -Ian

I think what some have to wait for updates or just wait for the full version, not alpha ... not once has not played ... this is very bad, sometimes it seems vain bought ...
i play the game on mac without any issues u just have to change the render to minimum in the options.
I play on a 2009 iMac no problems just put everything on the lowest settings, make sure you restart steam to!
