For some reason i can't play war thunders it says this when i open it Metal is not available for your mac or macIOS war thunders docent support openGL anymore and requires metal support could i get some help please?
Jump to our forum, we have Technical section for Mac users.
would like to see the entire tech tree splittet in ww2 and cold war ind the future so anyone can choose which era they want and nobody is angry about the cold war tanks kill the ww2 stuff
Amazing improvements, guys, thanks a lot !!! Still, maybe u could dedicate some resources to revisit the netcode and hit detection algorithms design to mitigate all the well known issues data comms have. We all know those are issues we all have to live with, but they are inherent to data carriers everywhere, ruining our game experience more and more as we connect farther and farther from servers. Blaming ISP's doesn't solve anything for anybody...(cont)
(cont)...High ping and packet loss are the bane of online gaming, punishing faraway players the most. And lag spikes and fps hiccups turn air battles in an annoying experience. So netcode should be more reliable. There's much written about it, maybe implementing some redundant data send and things like that. Just thinking here, to keep this wonderful combat simulator accessible to everybody in this growing playerbase. Thanks again!!
please nerf the british premein harrier it is impossible to play any jet thats in the 8.3-9.0 range due to not being able to do anything agest harriers they out speed you and you cant dog fight them because sraams so just get rid of the sraams their whyyyy to op
it says the game does not support OpenGL anymore and i need to have Metal support, how can i download/update it? Are we gonna have instructions? I'm not really an expert in that, so i would really appreciate some help :D
Check technical section on our forum for support.
