at least, Blizzard, bring Disabled particle density back.
Come on Blizzard, are you f***in kiddin us?
This game was once playable on Mac, even with some little effects goin on on my laptop.
Then you destroyed it.
Then you made it playable again, but only without any graphic effect whatsoever.
Then you destroyed even this.
Come on have some work ethics. Be responsible. This isnāt just some random sht app, itās 16 years of blizzard history, of mmorpg history and you are treating it like sht.
Iām sorry, but this makes me quite sad to be honest.
tl,dr: My computer just crashed three times during one single warfront and it drives me insane
Yeah iām also getting the crash again, only now thereās no way to mitigate it. WTH Blizz?
Had several 30 sec to 1 min freezes today. 1 in Halls of Lightning in LIch King Time Traveler event, 3 inside chamber of ānecklaceā and another 3-4 on the Azerite world quest areas.
Would rather play with PD off to avoid these massive freezes
Blizzard just removed the ādisableā option on the Particle density option, now it is Low but you canāt chose to disable it anymore, thatās why we are crashing again. Why do you do that guys from blizzard?? If i want the particle density on Low then I CAN CHOSE to have it low by myself and not been forced to have particle density activated. The first thing i got today after logging the way just some mints ago is a huge CRASH, all the computer freezed, i couldnāt even force to quit the game, i had to press the shut down button at the back of my iMac in order to be able to restart it. Why do you do such changes without even warning us? Because i didnt read anything of that in the patch notes. Donāt you understand that the particle density is the one giving the mayor problems at the moment? Please bring back the option to disable it, i could play without no problem so far until you fu%"/&d it up again. Listen to your mac customers!!
I just had another random crash. In Stormshield just flying, everything went black and imac rebooted, no spinning ball or noisy fans. Crash report:

what i see ā¦problem isnt fixedā¦ blizzard things that is our problem in apple i dont play many weeksā¦ i am in Elder of the Scrolls its better graphic, better gameing
They are not gonna fix it. First, they are so underpaid that I really think they cannot. This is why everything is so bugged including their last raid. Second they release new games in order to get some money since recently some trash has been thrown out from the company.
Already stopped playing. Tried it this night to see if things progressed, which clearly the did not.
Read a lot about Elder Scrolls, going to try that.
I must say that it is a shame Blizzard doesnāt care enough to refund payed subscription.
Shame on you Blizzard for ditching a loyal customer base.
Played your games since '99 - no moreā¦
Over at the US forum a blue responded 1 day ago and he/she said, quote:
"Hey everybody,
We did another modification to the client a couple days ago (on the 23rd.) Wanted to see how things are behaving now. How are things looking at the moment?"
I can add my feedback since the 23rd I havenāt crashed at all, however Ive had a few 20-30 sec beachball spinning freezes, these freezes havenāt occurred as much as they did before tho.
IMPORTANT - Im able to play with Particle Density with low / mid now and are finally able to see certain spells and graphics once more. How about the rest of you still visiting this thread?
Had been ok, another crash in Boralus today, same problem freeze - spinning beach ball - total lock up - hardware crashā¦not good
ahhā¦ it seems this is outā¦ i miss my wow ESO is good game butā¦ wow is better.
Still cant see spells after any updates?
Been playing 3-4 days with with Particle Density to fair and only had one 30 sec freeze inside Mechagon today. Slowly getting back to we were.
Same thing happening to me for last few weeks. So glad i found this thread and that its not just me ! I am still experiencing a lot of freezing and crashes requiring hard starts
I know how to fix the problem boysā¦!!
Just spend 40K Euro and buy the new Mac Pro
I bet u will be able to play WOW at max setting without any lags or FPS dropā¦!!
Itās maybe 8k for a mac pro with 5700XT
Can we get a ban on this person?
Hi, I have just renewed my membership today in order to play world of Warcraft again, to then realise that the game does NOT work on my Mac and is completely unplayable due to serious lag. I have then gone onto the forums and many MAC users have the same issue and you have not solved the issue for several months. So I have just paid for a game I canāt even play, I have just cancelled my subscription with you guys, possibly the most negligent, money hoarding company to ever exist. If your game is NOT playable on MAC do NOT advertise it prior to download. I have been playing WOW for a large number of years, just a shame to see the company drop to its lowest point.
I also just started playing again to see, that the mac wheel of death still occurs, lagging for about 10-20 seconds, for sometimes to crash completely. It makes the same unplayable, and impossible to complete visions and myth+.
Could we get some blue response to this again, since it seems it isnāt fixed for Mac.
For information: I have access to Mac OS Big Sur developer beta and I have not as of yet experienced any crashing, lagging or stuttering on 8.3 since fresh install yesterday.
I have yet to try anything hard like dungeons or raids so Iāll leave it at that for now. I will be testing it in the coming days.
Mind you, I donāt think this is Appleās fault that it hasnāt been able to be fixed software side by Blizzard in about six months but it seems the drivers are going to be updated in Big Surā¦
Update
Crashed once but Iāve done a few instances (levelling) - will try a PUG Raid tomorrow to see what happens.
Ok. Tried a few LFR Raids and they feel like pre 8.3 on old MacOS (since mine is 13 inch and intel card it gets kind of laggy from time to time) But Iām able to stay out of crap, survive and make reasonably good DPS. This is when running MacOS Big Sur beta as a reminder.
