how exactly do you want Source 2 to work on arm? apple doesn't even support the intel macs anymore
also rust for no reason
Doesnt mac have some shit called rosetta that can translate it?
and? how are you going to target a platform that isn't even supported, it's only for """legacy""" software
if there's a rosetta standard runtime you could probably make it work but it's stupidly fricking complex to maintain for a dozen people who actually want that
apple has ported wine and dxvk to mac so if you want cs2 so bad you can play it through wine on rosetta
frick you and frick apple and frick mac tim cook
apple has also clearly stated that they don't intend to support it for long and backwards compat on macos is a nightmare so there's nobody who would want to frick with all of this
steam doesnt even support arm macs afaik
>how exactly do you want Source 2 to work on arm?
This is really less of an issue than you think in 2023, even for C++ almost every single library imaginable has already been ported to ARM for quite a while due to popularity of smartphones.
yeah bro i bet valve has ported all their engine libs since goldsrc to arm
This is valve we're talking about here, some of that code probably still remembers quake 2 and the water shader artist is the only guy who knows how water works.
Most of which was written in C, which means it's extremely easy to compile for a new system.
https://twitter.com/JoeyCheerio/status/1649275592733253632 quake 1 actually
It's kinda funny that valve has been developing its technologies more or less parallel with the rest of the industry rather than just straight up using unreal like every other studio on the planet.
>valve not using unreal
timmy tencent just can't keep losing?
>also rust for no reason
Blame Tim Sweeney for buying EAC and not adding proper support for Linux
it has proper EAC support on linux
*EAC has linux support
>how exactly do you want Source 2 to work on arm?
valve are big boys, they can port their engine to ARM no problem. it's much more likely to be metal that they have a stick up their ass about.
>apple doesn't even support the intel macs anymore
yes they do? they no longer produce the hardware, but they still offer software updates for intel macs and will for at least a few years.
i'm sure valve loathes the idea of making universal binaries and using apple's snowflake APIs for a very small portion of their userbase, but they definitely could, they just don't want to.
>it's much more likely to be metal that they have a stick up their ass about.
MoltenVK has been a part of Vulkan API for 3 years or so now, with full feature parity and pre-made build targets. There's no excuse.
>valve are big boys, they can port their engine to ARM no problem
not with their spaghetti code
because most, almost all, linux users are nerdy guys that actually care about videogames, mac users are fricking moronic homosexuals that have been told time and time again to not buy a mac because it's shit especially for games.
>mac users are fricking moronic homosexuals
95% of top 10% earners use Macs, I'm sure you're so smart anon, so smart.
Yeah this situation is so sad...
Larry Fink really wanted to play CS2 on his Mac.
and because rich bois waste their money on worthless shit we should do the same?
are (YOU) an NFT collector or something?
95% of those top 10% also visited Epsteins island,
100% of these people don't play video games, the snort coke and frick prostitues and/or children
>it's OK when bad things happen to apple gays
FTFY
>no RL on Linux anymore oh noe
Linux users are used to that because they just use Proton anyways.
>Valve doesn't like applegays
And neither do I, at least me and Gabe actually agree on something.
You want to know why rocket league lost linux support?
It was bought out by epic game lmao
Linux support was probably only around because of valve though since it launched on steam originally
t. Still play it on steam with my gloo boost effects from portal
Applegays deserve to be shot
It's the other way around, Mac dropped support for modern processing and graphics architectures to peddle their own garbage and no dev is going to more than double their efforts to support 1% of the market. This will end when the same way thunderbolt ended.
>no dev is going to more than double their efforts to support 1% of the market
Ubisoft and Square has announced ALL their games are going to be coming to Macs.
Recently Life of P released on Mac day one.
The winds are changing anon.
apple moneyhatted ports from a few devs because they think it's a good showcase of their hardware. it won't last forever, and valve isn't relevant enough for apple to bribe them.
That's... how it works. You moneyhat to get releases on your platforms, unless you own your studios. That's how entire industry works. Why would it be different for Apple and "not last forever"? What you're saying doesn't make much sense.
it's not like it was the first time they tried this and failed
there is no public sale figures but I bet those ports sold like shit because none is convinced that mac is a platform for gaymes
other gaming platforms e.g. steam, xbox, playstation, switch, they all have a large established userbase, and anyone making a game wants to release on them because they know the game will sell there.
almost no one looks at macs and thinks "we need a mac port of our game, that's a big market." most devs wouldn't spend time and money on a port maybe 10k people will play versus hundreds of thousands or even millions on any other platform.
apple is currently trying to flex the power of apple silicon and video games are a longstanding way of flexing hardware, so they moneyhatted a few big games that otherwise had absolutely no chance of ever targeting a mac release.
apple won't do this forever because core gamers aren't a market they sincerely care about. they let apple arcade devs push the boundaries a bit for what games belong on the service, but they're obviously targeting mobile gamers, and simply trying to make subscription revenue by offering mobile games you pay a subscription for in exchange for no ads or microtransactions.
apple wants to impress the general public by showing off that macs can run new AAA video games. they don't actually care about making mac a viable gaming platform, and they're going to stop moneyhatting ports in a few years when it's no longer tangibly benefiting them.
what i said makes perfect sense if you're not deepthroating tim cook.
Steve Jobs outright hated video games and most likely Apple leadership has inherited this attitude
>>It's okay when Valve does it!
Uhhhh, yeah? And that's a good thing.
You might be drunk on Gaben’s cum.
>that site design
i bet Mac users do not use that site
Nah frick Mac gamers and anyone who uses Apple product. I'm just glad we got a Linux build that doesn't use a translation layer anymore.
your fault for buying a mac and expecting to game on it
or are you just mad about cs2 and trying to find a way to talk shit?
>can't play CS at work anymore.
sad
has anyone used whisky to use counter strike 2
?si=svFfRvUJHKZagEhi
whisky
https://github.com/Whisky-App/Whisky/releases
It crashes for me randomly, which is a shame because otherwise it works 120 fps+ on very high on M1 Max.
How is it gaming on a mac?
I've played it using Whisky 2.0.0 and like I said, it runs great, just crashes randomly, lol.
what is a reasonably priced gamer laptop that can play cs2
Many players like me probably.
I might play it today to see if i can get into it this time.

would this laptop work for CS2 ? this is about as much as a console
i'd like to cast it to my tv screen somehow
?feature=shared
check this out Gankerros
>5500u
>absolute lowest settings
>768p (ew)
80fps MAXIMUM, with a few drops below 60 on a DEATHMATCH, wait until you start playing Casual or Comp with this and people start throwing smokes and molotovs in front of you, that would wreck your fps.
I recall that Steve Jobs made public statements about how he really hates video games. Probably his spirit still guides a lot of the goings-on in Apple.
or this
neither of those would be acceptable IMO, the 5500U has a better chance but none of them will sustain 60fps at 1080p, maybe not even at 720p
>98.5% of counter strikers were mac users
why the frick would valve do this?
Seriously though, it's fascinating to see that 98.5% of CS:GO owners have not even played a single match of CS2.
There was zero marketing from Valve about the release day of CS2.
They had the big front page banner though.
2 days after it released
Valve will not fricking advertise their products
This is really annoying in hardware because if you bought it, the self sabotage makes adoption rates lower which just means its more useless down the road
It's F2P and if you've ever added it to your library over decade you get counted as an owner
I dropped it when they added f2p and br shit tbh
MacToddlers BTFO
>removed gungame

Valve uses SDL and Vulkan on their games.
MoltenVK translates Vulkan into Metal, and it's included automatically on mac versions of the SDK.
All they would have to do is recompile the game + libraries on an apple silicon mac and it'd work.
It's literally just a case of them being too lazy to do so.
Why bother putting in the effort when most Mac users are too busy sucking wieners between each bite of xer/xim avocado toast? Linux has a bigger gaming community than Mac users. If you bought a Mac to game on it, then you might be a genuine moron.
Mac users are gay homosexual homosexuals

Ryujinx (switch emu) devs tried this, they got it working but it's not such a simple solution
https://blog.ryujinx.org/the-impossible-port-macos/
Most of their issue with MoltenVK stems from the fact that they're an emulator, having to handle a variety of different games.
However in Valve's case, they only have to work with a single game that uses Vulkan from the start, which MoltenVK then translates to Metal.
Still, it's fricking moronic how Apple won't just support Vulkan natively.
This is a post from before Metal3 released, which has feature parity with Vulkan so it's no longer needed to emulate fragment shaders.
I’ve been warning people about Scammin’ Valve’s misdeeds for the last two years.
Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.
Mac- cucks dont deserve good things
i thought you guys had "real work" to do, and video games were for (man) children?
Preferring the comfier operating system that actually isn't shit doesn't mean you necessarily only want to work.
Also, on principle, this is a game some Mac users paid for, and now it's been taken away from them.
Blame Apple for not supporting cross platform standards and being anti-humanity. When you support a company like this you deserve this. Make better choices you consumerist moron.
Look at Linux, it supports Vulkan and it has a higher steam market share than Mac hahaha
It's no wonder Mac is not there at launch
I'm surprised Source 2 doesn't have a Metal backend. It's not like Valve can't afford it.
what does that mean
It's a graphics API. If they support it, it means better performance on Mac. Right now they do API translation (VK -> Metal)
>it means better performance on Mac
source: it was revealed to me in a dream
it does, they just don't want to maintain a port for a non-existent userbase
Valve literally bought MoltenVK to open source it, and then pays the lead developer to keep working on it.
?t=267
Yet they have basically done nothing with outside of Dota 2.
And thats a good thing
i play cs2 on m1 pro with whisky, runs at around 50-150fps at 1600x900 low settings, so actually very similar how csgo ran before. Mac build is in development also
the game is trash though, so nothing of value was lost
oh no, not all 5 of those mac players
Apple is 10x bigger in the gaming market than Valve.
yeah for balloon popping mobileshit
those aren't games
But most people who use a mac don't play games. I would bet a large majority of apple product owners have never even touched a video game.
>But most people who use a mac don't play games
They absolutely do, they just usually play on consoles.
Most Mac users are women and literal gays.
They play shitty mobile "games" on their iPhones while getting fricked in the ass by Tim Apple.
You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
It's okay to be gay, homosexual.
It's also okay to be Indian.
It's almost like constantly breaking compatibility and keep changing your CPU architecture means that its not worth the effort to keep up. Microsoft only broke compatibility with 16-bit Windows apps 30 years later in comparison by making Windows 11 64-bit only, and even then there is OTVDM.
>literally less major than the CS:S orange box update
>call it a different name like CS 2
why do they do this
Well Gabe worked for Apple, maybe he just doesn't like them.
Ironic that when studying marketing in college we kept making fun of Apple and the audience they target to buy their products
>playing on mac
i thought apple users only played with their buttholes
>i thought apple users only played with their buttholes
You were confused, it was actually your uncle playing with your butthole.
>I am okay with making an exception to my views on anti-consumer business practices like this, because it is more important to keep up appearances online by submitting to the perceived peer pressure of making fun of Apple users
The existence of Apple is anti-human and should absolutely be suppressed at any opportunity.
I make an exception for Applegays when it comes to anti-consumer business practices in the same way I make an exception for dying in a car crash is bad when it comes to moronic drivers going too fast. If you're going out of your way to act like a moron despite everyone warning you about it then enjoy the consequences of your actions
Now post the phone version. Also looking back, I wish I had a Desert Eagle over a helicopter. You can’t watch furry porn on a pistol.
Holy fricking cope.
>buy cs:go

Oldgays, what was Ganker saying when the Über update rolled out?
Why would Macgays even care? They are too busy huffing their own farts and being homosexuals to even care about vidya
Works on my (Linux) machine.
Mac doesn’t have Proton? it’s a heavily locked down unix based OS isn’t it?
It has wine and you can game on it using that
Proton itself doesn't support Mac and CS2 can't be run through wine
It's just a normal Unix. It isn't locked down in the slightest, most of it is open source outside of the graphical interface.
>It isn't locked down in the slightest
Sure
You might just be moronic.
https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/distribution-macOS/tree/macos-140
thats not a whole os, thats just parts. Thats like saying if notepad and mspaint was made open source, windows was open source
This is in fact the entire operating system except for the apple stink and a graphical window manager.
Isn't Mac all ARM now?
