Nethaufer Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ew, Mac. OT: It might take a while because from what I understand, programs are made differently for Macs than for PCs. Same with getting a game to run on Linux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentMobius Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) Will there ever be a time that Warframe will come to Mac computers considering it is on Xbox one and PS4 Neither The PC, XBOne nor the PS4 Warframe (Evolution Engine) use OpenGL. Given the small playerbase on gaming-capable Mac+Linux I doubt DE will ever consider it worth the time to port their D3D engine to OpenGL (NB They most likely used middlewear to do the PS4 engine conversion) It would be great if they did (I have a work Mac Pro) but I believe the last comment was "No plans to" Edited September 19, 2014 by SilentMobius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)MoRockaPDX Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) I don't buy most of the arguments against porting to OSX, except for time and resources. But at some point soon it will make sense to port to both Mac OS X and Linix. Likely the same middle-ware used on the PS4 or something similar will be applied as the playstations have been strong OpenGL platforms, so that is possible. 70+ million Macs, many with users that are affluent enough to buy games, is a tempting market.
