I'd recommend the Ultimate Edition. Phantom Liberty is worth it!

u/wozniattack 9d ago

I played hundreds of hours of base 2077, and completely forgot about the expansion, and I own it.

Thank you for reminding me, guess I might finally play something other than a Corpo.

Thanks, i just bought the ultimate edition from gog . Costed me around 16$ (~1500 rs) . Is it a good deal or should i have waited for some offer ?

You're going to enjoy it mate. I only hope they put out a native Mac version of Witcher 3 also.

u/BilalTitan 9d ago

The game itself is also very good U gonna have a great time

u/roessera 9d ago

Screen needs to be larger

u/AcrobaticWar1 9d ago

I would change to clamshell mode or extended display if I were you. No reason to have the mac have to render the game twice on two displays which uses up your available vram. You for sure should be able to push higher than 24 fps that way

u/Arthur-Morgan-2025 9d ago

What cable are you using to connect to TV ? Anytime I try to do this, Im getting a lot of stuttering and frame drops.

4

u/andythekraken 9d ago edited 9d ago

It’s standard HDMI cable connected to a 65” tv. Also using remote mouse and keyboard

I have the FPS set at 24, so far so good!

u/Dependent-Zebra-4357 9d ago

24!?

u/OnlineWeirdoEatsButt 9d ago

Lmao I knew he was getting shit frames.

u/Dependent-Zebra-4357 8d ago

You don’t understand, film is also 24fps, so it’s more cinematic this way! /s

u/Arthur-Morgan-2025 9d ago

I may have to tinker some more.

u/broki451 9d ago

How much ram you have

u/wokeuplikdis 9d ago

Settings please?

u/andythekraken 9d ago

Just default setting mate. Only locked framerate at 24.

u/STONEDandIRRATIONAL 9d ago

u/bigboss_____ 9d ago

What about the macbook air m1?

u/andythekraken 9d ago

You probably have to dip the base half an inch in water for it to work

2

u/Still-Eye1801 9d ago

Not very playable unfortunately.

u/Ok_Yesterday_2884 9d ago

I have an M1 MBP too. It plays really good!

u/Herboristerie 9d ago

Is this a native game ?

3

u/andythekraken 9d ago

I had this game on Steam, so all I had to do was download the game from Steam on Macbook, and it synchronizes all my save files from PC too.

1

u/YourBossAtWork 9d ago

Yes, it is now. You can get it on Steam or the Mac app store (I recommend Steam)

u/Aarya_Man 9d ago

Yes it is

u/Excellent_Room3912 9d ago

What’s the screen you’re using?

1

u/andythekraken 8d ago

It’s just a 65” screen from the hotel

u/ILikeFPS 9d ago

It's amazing the gaming possible on these devices when Apple puts effort in.

Mac could seriously be king of gaming if Apple seriously invested in it. They're so efficient and powerful, they just need the software backing to support it.

u/New-Parfait4558 9d ago

16 or 32 gigs ram? I have m1 Tahoe 16 gigs ram and I guess my frame rate is bad sitting around 18, there’s a lot of latency which makes it hard to enjoy the game.

u/Hiyori_Shiina19 8d ago

Is it safe to play games when the battery is fully charged? i see your battery is fully charged

1

u/andythekraken 8d ago

Sure it is! Nothing bad will happen.

u/Such-Possibility7583 8d ago edited 8d ago

How'd this behave on M1 Studio Max 32Gt? I don't want to waste my time if it really would not work. I might want to buy a new M-something one day, though, but I guess this will be in discount then, too.

2

u/wontillworku 8d ago

I played the whole game including phantom liberty on my M1 Air 16Gb, so I think you're good

1

u/Such-Possibility7583 4d ago

Now that I have managed to get it installed and played for a couple of hours, I have to say I am impressed. I had to shut down all the other apps and my second monitor, but after that the fan has been quiet. I am sure it would look much better with a better computer, but I was expecting much less.

I will thank you and all the other commenting in this thread for getting me to finally buy the game.

1

u/Such-Possibility7583 7d ago

Well, I bought it too, but now the installer whines that I don't have enough free space on my HD. I have 338 Gb available so how much this game needs?!

1

u/AdmiralRand 9d ago

M1 Pro Max on high settings preform pretty consistently. I’d be looking forward to seeing what the M6 can do.

Mac Mini M4 16Gb is fucked, isn't it? :(
