pixmap Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 First I spent 10 minutes searching for an answer to this question, so I apologize if this is a repost. (I can't believe I'm the only one asking this). So here it goes! Can I preorder the Mac OS version of the game? Is the Mac version available as a beta testing? Side note... I just finished a 14 hour straight marathon playing Fraxis version of Xcom on the Xbox... I enjoyed it but it felt empty, that is not that much depth. Great game and I enjoyed it but I wanted more... I wanted Xenonauts!!! Time to get some sleep thanks for you time. Have a great weekend!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gauddlike Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 The mac version is being alpha tested alongside the windows version (and I believe a linux compatible version, something about a wine wrapper version I think, not my field sorry). There is no specific mac pre order though, it is all the same thing until you download the one you want to help test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ko2fan Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 All pre-orderers can download the Windows, Mac or Linux versions of the game. Right now the Mac version is at V14. Chris decided to skip V15 for Mac since V16 will be released very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixmap Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 Fantastic! Thank you for the information. If I could suggest more advertising that it will support the other OS's on the web page. I found it only under the FAQ then was unable to figure out how to buy it. As the normal process says nothing about the purchase being for Mac, just pay here and download. No biggie, I just thought the fan-base for this type of game is small and I would hate to see you guys lose potential sales. Coders work their asses off, it's not easy to code, remember never take your yearly income and divide it by the hours worked for the year.. ouch it's painful!!! Long live the late night coders!!! thanks everyone for your help, I'm off to buy a copy now! Really excited about playing this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Williham Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Since we're on the subject; is V14 for mac somewhat playable at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ko2fan Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 There are a couple known issues unique to Mac V14, but they are engine bugs, so unlikely to get fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
