Although these modes play well and provide an equal amount of thrill and laughs, Garden Warfare fails to add to the genre, instead becoming a family-friendly clone. This game mode, of course, mirrors similar horde-based modes in games from Gears of War to the more recent Overwatch PvE (player versus environment) modes. Once the plants have defeated the final wave, they must escape to an extraction point and survive until the clock hits zero. Furthermore, as players can choose their plant-based class, gameplay offers a large variety of opportunities. Here, the gameplay stays fresh with “boss waves” whereby a slot machine spawns different boss zombies and rewards players with coins. And, as if that wasn’t enough, players can find Flower Pots and Bone Piles around each multiplayer map in which they can place defensive turrets to further support their team, harking back to the series’ origins.Ĭooperative play offers “Garden Ops”, a game mode whereby four players take control of the Plants in order to defend their garden from waves of invading zombies. Each of these classes has three unique abilities, be it launching area of effect attacks or burrowing underground, which provides that extra punch to spice up the gameplay. The Peashooter and Foot Soldier are the standard ranged grunts the Chomper and the All-Star engage in close-combat the Cacti fight at range while the Sunflower, Scientist and Engineer support their teams in the fight to victory.
Gw2 fps mac install#
These are the steps I made to install the game.Ģ- Change the bottle to win 10 64 bit (the crosstie choose the 32 bit one)ģ- Download the installer from the official site and change the one used by the installation wizard to the one downloadedĥ- (optional) copy. I didn’t do anything special to install the game but if someone need help with the 64 bit version I can try to help. Other than this little issue i didn’t find any glitch or bugs in 1-2 hours sessions. The only issue I found is that if I run the game directly from the shortcut in crossover the game crashes, instead if I right click on the shortcut anche choose “run with options…” and then run the executable leaving the options empty the game start.

I use the 64 bit executable installed in a win 10 64 bits bottle and i get 25-40 fps on medium settings.

I’m currently playing GW2 in a M1 Mac using Big Sur and Monterey beta. I also couldn't get the 64-bit version to work at all so far. Didn't really change anything as far as I can see.

Also feel free to use this thread to speak about compatibility with modern macOS in general, regardless of Intel or Apple chip.Įdit: I now updated to CrossOver 21. I'm not sure how I can do this in CrossOver and if it would help at all with performance or the crashing issue. I'd also be interested in trying out the 64-bit version, as it seems to me that currently the 32-bit version is used (the application icon in the Dock says "wine32on64" at least). Has anyone been able to find a way to work around this? So I'm restarting the game every hour or so when possible in order to minimize losing progress. On low graphics settings the game runs mostly smooth enough (up to ~50 FPS) but crashes on me after a while. Personally I've been playing on my M1 Mac installed via the CrossTie profile. Certainly with the new expansion coming out soonish. Also with ArenaNet no longer offering an official Mac version of the game, I feel like there might be some people coming back to CrossOver now looking for ways to keep playing. Looking at the forum, all threads are quite old now and most of the advice seems to be not really applicable. I wanted to open a thread so everyone can share their experiences and maybe tips and tricks about playing Guild Wars 2 on modern Macs with up-to-date operating systems.
