    FFXIV for Mac

    "Square Enix announced at GDC 2008 that the new MMO was being targeted at all aforementioned systems and hinted that Mac and Linux clients would not be out of the question."

    I was wondering, now when FFXIV is again in development stage, maybe SE could bring it also for Mac?? Why not make game more accessible, it's supposed to be multi-platform MMO anyway.

    I realize that's far from priority's atm, and I know that some ppl think Mac can't handle well FFXIV, but those new MacBook's Pro are doing just fine, I'm playing on one as well (Installed Windows7).

    I wish for FFXIV best. Big MMO's like EvE or WoW for example, are supporting Mac, and I'm sure its doing good for their business. Maybe when Ps3 version will be released it could also lunch with Mac??

    Pls Sign if you would like to see this happen, and also some post from Development or Operation Team would be great, if there are any rumours, or plans for this in the future.

    I'm sure the more successful releases they can get, the better.

    Not to jack your thread... so if you like I'll delete this post, but also what about some type of portable OS content...
    Bazaar or retainer management from the Iphone would be cool

    This has been discussed before, and the main reason SE won't official back this is because it gives certain players and advantage. The best you'll get is Fan made stuff.

    I'd much rather have FFXIV content for android than MAC.

    They announced that we would be able to manage our Chocobos from an upcoming app. I forgot the exact quote, but it had something to do with breeding.

    This game can run on low-medium setting on a Macbook-Pro by Duel booting into a Windows 7/XP. i recommend XP for Bootcamping anyway Windows Vista/Windows 7 have a Control issue with anything installed on the same HDD.

    PS: the Mac died the second they stopped rolling out with the G Series Processors, all you get now is a standard subpar quality IBM compatible PC with Control Chips that force you to buy outrageously priced upgrades.

    Native OS X client would be a nice to have...but it's also so easy to create an extra partition, and use Boot Camp to run XP/W7 to be able to play on Apple hardware.

    Even owning a Mac myself this is a lower priority for me than most anything else.
