something really scary happened and I'm not sure if its gw 2 related on mac. But when I was playing guild wars 2 mac beta, and command tabbed back to desktop, NOTHING worked. I'm playing on a macbook retina but my usb drives would not read my mouse or external hard drive, I couldn't command option esc to force quit programs. All I could do was open safari. I couldn't even shut down, sleep , restart.

Has this happened to anyone else ? I had to manually power off and restart again to get everything working again.
 
Hi Everyone, I am using the Mac Beta version 1.0.008498 and I am playing it on my Mac Pro 1.1 running Mac OS 10.7.5 and my system specs are...
Model Identifier: MacPro1,1
Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 3 GHz
Number of Processors: 2
Total Number of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per Processor): 4 MB
Memory: 10 GB
Chipset Model: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
Type: GPU
Bus: PCIe
Slot: Slot-1
PCIe Lane Width: x16
VRAM (Total): 512 MB

I must say that I am getting very good smooth game play with no visible lag or graphics tearing on my very old Mac Pro. I am very impressed and Thank the developers for porting it to the Mac Platform.

Like to know how you have a Processors of 3Ghz did you up grade cuz I have the same card and getting only 3fps now even with everything on low, I have the same card and all????

Nvm I found out they do have an intel base 3Ghz model, so scratch this post.
