Destiny 2 PC - Bootcamp Mac (will it run?)

I've always enjoyed PC gaming over other consoles. So, naturally, when I saw Destiny 2 was being released for PC, I was excited. Though, I play on a MacBook Pro. I've used BootCamp to run Windows 10 just fine, but I'm wondering how well Destiny 2 would run on it.

  • I use bootcamp on a 2018 IMac and I’ve never experienced even one lag spike. Works great!

  • I have a mid-2015 15" MacBook Pro with AMD graphics, and it actually ran really well at low settings and 720p. It looked pretty good too! I didn't have time to test out all the settings and different resolutions, but hopefully that can give you a good idea of how it'll run on yours. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGAL3LWgPU0]Here's a video I made showing the performance.[/url] Unfortunately due to the restrictions of the beta, I couldn't put up an FPS overlay. However, I'm guessing I was getting somewhere between 30 and 45 FPS.

  • So, I have a Late 2015 iMac (i7, 5k, Radeon R9 M395X, 16gb Ram) and I just installed Win10 Pro with bootcamp. The good news - It works, and works pretty well. It runs really smooth with the settings on High. I was really pleasantly surprised actually. The bad news - It crashes repeatedly. I get a "Game Executable Has Stopped Working" Error each time I play. I can't figure it out. I ran all the Windows updates, I tried a few other things that I found people suggesting, but it keeps happening. It seems kind of random - The first few times, I would crash at various points in the Homecoming mission, so I had to keep repeating it. Now that I'm able to access the director, It crashed midway through the strike, and once at the strike boss. It also crashed in the crucible at random moments. I already pre-ordered on both X1 (played d1 on it, friends) and PS4 (to join other friends) and honestly, after first impressions with the PS beta, I was really tempted to pre order, or at least purchase at release. However, I'm not convinced because of the crashes. If I can figure that out somehow - I think PC might be the way to go. I hope this helps.

  • Same question I have the 2017 iMac i7 with 40gb Ram / Radeon Pro 580 with 8GB video memory and a 1 TB SSD. Will it run well on this setup? BUNGIE ???

  • It's been almost 2 months since this post went up. Can someone from Bungie please comment on this? I've already done the beta on xbox, but I hope someone is willing to try this on a mac with bootcamp to see how it runs. I think it has the potential to swing a lot of players towards a high spec mac, with internal or external gpu's.

  • Most MB and MBP do not have discrete graphics cards so no it will not run even in boot camp. I mean you might be able to get it to run at 640x480 and 15 fps but that would be pushing it
