Auramaru Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Heyo, so after Xbox One got support for Warframe, I began to wonder if I was the only one that wished it supported Mac. And because I know that people are gonna do it, I'll just throw this on: Anyway, I went ahead and made a poll for the subject: http://www.easypolls.net/poll.html?p=54078d61e4b062e9cdb25996 I use a Mac, but got a Windows partition on it. I wish Warframe worked for Mac, but I can handle juggling operating systems. but yeah... DE Glen... Warframe support mac next, pls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathKoala Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 The main problem is that the way the operating systems are coded is completely different, so I don't even know if the Evolution Engine would work on Mac, or if they'd have to reprogram the whole thing from the ground up.

DeathKoala Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Mac is Crap, PC/XB1/PS4 master race Not gonna deny it, but it's still a bit of a harsh way of putting it. Everyone knows PS2 is best system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angius Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Getting Mac> implying it's suitable for gamingNo, seriously, Mac is a piece of steaming crap, if it's about games. It can be good for... Browsing Internet, I guess, but not for games. Besides, porting game to Mac would mean completely re-writing the whole game, because Warframe uses DirectX, and Mac doesn't. Making a game work with completely different API is pretty much equal to re-making the whole game from scratch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auramaru Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) Mac is Crap, PC/XB1/PS4 master race It's not about what is better, the question and point is to find out if enough people actually want/need support for Mac OS X for DE to consider supporting it. Thanks for stating the obvious though, +1 for that, then -10 for not being constructive.

The problem for me was the fact that the only windows laptops (I needed a laptop) had windows 8 and absolute crap hardware specs. But that's besides the point.
