CD Projekt Red Announces Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition Is Coming to Mac

But is it an office problem? What renders the app and causes that sort of problem? I could say it goes either way. Besides, many of the other issues I have are strictly on windows. Like sometimes when I maximize a window, it maximizes over the taskbar, making the maximize feature unusable until I reboot. I’ve had long lags in opening settings and the search menus. Granted, office also has its issues (hello, new Outlook), but a good chunk of my issues are Windows-related. It’s not crashing, but rather I experience very real usability bugs. I use macOS and Linux, too, and honestly most of this is related to Windows 11. I never had these kinds of issues with Windows 10.

I've seen office 365 be terrible on both windows 10 and 11.
I would concede that it seems to be glitch more on windows 11 than 10 - and at times there seems to be a big in excel that basically makes the top part of the window with the smart icons black or disappear on windows 11, whereas on windows 10 they blank but come back again (sort of).

This doesn't necessarily mean Win 11 is the cause - we don't know if there is a specific Windows 11 code path for certain operations to try and take advantage of newer WDDM features or some such.

The fact this only happens in Office 365 vs many other apps does make me lean more to the Office apps being the problem.

I do need to point out though that these are on varying systems with different hardware so driver maturity, etc., may play a part.

Just today, the row label column in excel went blank. If I hover over it, the numbers would reappear for a time and then disappear. I experience stuff like this on the regular, on a business class laptop. Does it crash? No, not usually, but there is definitely a lack of quality in the feel of using that particular Windows machine.

Sounds like an Intel graphics driver bug to me.

Well that's unexpected.

I hope it gets the full 2020 release treatment with plenty of hilarious bugs or Mac users won't know what they missed. I have an M1 Pro MacBook with the 2048 core GPU so it could run OK on it. I bought on GOG but they're both owned by CDPR, the Mac version should be there too, right? It better be.

I only had 1 issue. The day before release, I could see the all trees in the game all the time, through everything.
The next day a patch was out that fixed it.

What you described is a problem internal to Excel. The rendering engine for Windows itself has nothing to do with it.

This is going to be interesting to see how it run and see how Ray tracing preform on the M chip.

It's not. The MacOS version of CyberPunk2077 will be sans raytracing. Apple's performance on RTRT is very sub-par compared to NVidia and AMD. Pathetic would be another good word to describe it.

I might have been wrong on that point. According to TweakTown, they are going to try PathTracing.

Cyberpunk 2077 is coming to Mac, will run natively on Apple silicon with Path Tracing

With Apple announcing its new M4 Pro and M4 Max chips, CD Projeckt Red has announced that Cyberpunk 2077 is coming to Mac with full ray tracing.

So M4 GFX performance is really that good??

Can the Radeon 780M iGPU run CP2077 with Path Tracing? Technically yes. Should I run it with Path Tracing? No.

I'll bet it's the same here, but we'll see.

Maybe. I agree with you. Apple has been pulling rabbits out of their hats so who knows..
