Mac client no longer works.

I am at my wits end at this point. After numerous reinstalls for the last month or so, dealing with support I had 0 issues solved.

- Can’t buy gems. Solution = Use Windows.

- Can’t get my § shortcut back. Told it doesn’t work, so how was it working since I installed the game and only failed on the recent reinstall? Had to change my shortcuts.

- Mouse goes crazy and has nothing to do with the suggested solution I was given. Only solution to CMD-Tab out and in again once I am in the game.

- TgUpdate dialog taking 1-10 minutes when launching. Was suggested to install from an untrusted source a copy of the client (which does not work).

- Default graphics settings crashes OSX (have to hard reboot). I fixed this by launching from a windows machine and changing the graphics settings until the crash stopped occurring.

So I still have all these issues. The game actually worked at one point, so I don’t accept the fact we are told to live with these.

Now the latest patch the game just crashes after 1-3 minutes entering WvW. Also randomly crashes in other zones. LA, KH and the Winter games are the only places it hasn’t crashed.

I’ve given up at this point.

I am not at all sure, but the comments about Mavericks and the updater may be helpful to some of you, in which case you’ll want to visit this post.

The info in this thread has been real helpful in getting people updated to get into the game, to solve camera issues, and to allow Gem Store purchases, if that is your desire.

As far as I can see, the info would not directly impact those using Bootcamp, but I think the thread is worth a view as it might address issues that you are having with Mac use for GW2.
