Hi,

I wonder if anyone has experience with Steam here. I tried posting to the Steam community but it seems like everyone is about 10 on there and you just get silly replies......

I have installed Alien Isolation via Steam on my late 2015 27" iMac but there is a problem. I can play it once but, when I quit, the next time I try to play it crashes.

The only way for me to play again is to run the option:

"Verify Integrity of Game Cache"

It then runs through "Validating Steam Files" and tells me "1 file failed to validate and will be reacquired".

After that I can play the game one more time. I am then back to square 1 again. Every time I want to play I have to run through this whole procedure. Has anyone else got this running successfully on an iMac?

I have several other Steam games running no problem.

Thanks.
