CoD MW2 on Mac OSX via Parallels!

[Hahn2012]

wow u guys r nerds

[acecard98]

@Hahn2012 well aren't you a nerd to if you were watching this video if you think it was so nerdy why were you watching it then?

[IIJazzyII]

Gorillaz! Haven't heard that song in years!

[MrR4SSE]

I did that same thing with my mac :)

[ToysTechNerdiness]

Gorillaz FTW!

[immatoll]

If you have enough ram. Set parallels on high prio and mac os x to low i think parallels is a pretty nice option to play games without rebooting. A mac 13 sux for gaming overall so it would be also disappointing in bootcamp.

[MrDJmusic1]

Whats the second song men?

[spourop22]

what song?



[MartyB086]

do you need to use boot camp if you want to game or can i just use the parallel software that runs as part of the mac OS?? please answer

[TrustairXL]

@MartyB086 If you use bootcamp you have to restart your mac, but if you use this program you run on OSX and on windows at the same time so no rebooting is needed

[RadiQal]

@TrustairXL Indeed, you don't have to restart your Mac for using Parallels, instead of bootcamp but it lacks in performance

[mattho6vc]

@RadiQal What is the best and less laggy for gaming? parallels or bootcamp?

[RadiQal]

@mattho6vc Bootcamp, because it won't take anything of the memory from any other OS, for example OSX

[Loggerz23]

i just wanna ask... is the original Mac Graphics effect the graphic of the parallel Desktop?? thx

[TheGamersGod]

Do you think it would Help if, the parallels was installed with Windows 7 instead and 8gb ram in the Mac.

[MatthewAhnify]

@TheGamersGod windows 7 takes up more ram so I would think not

[TheGamersGod]

Do you Think that it would improve if,

[retardedBananaXp]

is the games using the max performance in "windows".¨

and does the os come with parallels?

[flashjacksonbrown]

Are games slow in Parrels?

[greedisgoodz]

I was wondering when you install Parallels do you have to buy a copy of windows 7/XP with it or does it work out of the box with Parallels.

[lukeibe]

@greedisgoodz you need to have a operating system disk or iso, none come with pd

[MayThe5th]

i did the same with my 2.2ghz inte core i7, 4gb 1333Mhz DDR3 macbook pro, tried running mw2 on windows XP through parallel but it came out with "direct X encountered an unrecoverable error" msg when i hit "play" button on steam. anyone knows how to solve this problem?

[SpaceCredits]

is this real? - without Multiplayer its useless

[SpaceCredits]

is this real?

[DoopyAho313]

can u help me..i have installed window 7..but i cant run any game using parallel...its say something about my graphic card and direct x...

[samanen]

What model is your mbp? i5?

[RadiQal]

@samanen yes, 2.4 GHz with 4gig RAM

[samanen]

@RadiQal Allright, thanks for replying. I'm looking for the best gaming performance on my C2D 13" mbp.. :/ Any tips?

[iGeniusAtWork]

@samanen yea, use bootcamp with windows 7 64 bit. and upgrade your RAM to 4gb + :)

[samanen]

@iGeniusAtWork Thanks man, my ram is already 4GB, but I'm planning to upgrade it to 6GB and then 8GB

[TheGamersGod]

@RadiQal

Maybe it would work with 8GB ram

[Killerz1993]

hi i got a question. i have just installed my windows 7 on parallels. but i cant seem to launch the game because it keeps saying 'no suitable graphics card or render mode found. Please try to install the latest graphics driver to solve the problem.' Please help. i do know that i need directX and windows live but can u tell me what i am lacking? Thanks

[OMFGphagg]

does multi work?

[RadiQal]

@OMFGphagg If u have a valid online key, yes

[youngswag803]

Bootcamp and never go back XD

[sykkeloli]

does it only work if u have xp on ?

[RadiQal]

@sykkeloli No, but i think XP is the best gaming OS :D

Works also with Win7 and Vista

[rmysterio80]

Virtual machines suck

[RadiQal]

@rmysterio80

With gaming it certainly does at the moment. I can imagine that you need Win programs on your Mac! And with VM you can manage this easily ;-)

[gazherbert7]

i have downloaded and installed bootcamp and windows succesfully, but when i open my multiplayer file it says there are no IWD files in main, but there are, any answers? Thanks

[10maxch]

hey i have a really important question i would LOVE it if somone can reply and help me out :D!!!!

i have a macbook pro 13' and have parallels on it. i have the Pc version of call of duty modern warfare 2 on it, would i be able to play it smoothly with good graphics on my mac????

tHANKKKS

[10maxch]

@10maxch also could i play multiplayer on it?

[RadiQal]

@10maxch

You can with original gamekey.

[V1nilla]

Does the gameplay run smoothly? And how did you install it?

[smoovegriz]

crystal clear

[2hockeymasters]

my multiplayer menu is fine but the gameplay is not working

[geebones]

is there any weakness to doing this i.e. not as good as pc gaming

[RadiQal]

@geebones

It's not hardware related, just that it's virual means that it doens't run as smooth as it should be

[geebones]

@RadiQal so macs just crap at gaming

[ethalox]

Booh!
