Anyone played Star Wars: The Old Republic on Macbook pro 13 inch?

Just wondered if anyone had played Star Wars The Old Republic on the 13 inch MBP. Im considering buying the new 13 inch, 2.9ghz i7, but not sure about Intel HD 4000, has anyone had much success with the Intel HD 3000 on previous model. Im guessing bootcamp is the best way to play it.
Thanks

Don't wait on Apple....rev up some developer skills, wrestle permission from the ST concern and DIY.

  • Running windows 7 to play Star Wars the old republic

    I recently bought Star Wars The Old Republic MMO and wanted to play it on my Mac Book Pro [I do not have the current gen. MBP being sold I have the model previous]
    I went out to my local apple store and bought parallels deskdop 7 after reading the reviews on it. [~$80]
    I then went out and purchased windows 7 [~$200]
    Installed both.....
    and im told that my mac does not have enough processing power to play the game?  I used to play world of warcraft on it with no problem.  Should I buy a different program that runs windows 7 solo so Im not splitting up my processing power? Or will I just not have the ability to play this game on this mac?
    Have anyone else come across any similar issues or tried to do the same?
    When I attempt to play the game the game window will not stretch to fill the entire screen, it drops down to a smaller window which isnt large enough to effectively play the new game. 
    Thoughts? Ideas? Suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Ask your question in the Boot Camp forum.  Alternatively, you should contact Parallels.  This forum is to discuss the MacBook Pro hardware, not how to set up a game. 

  • I want to play Star wars the old republic,

    I want to play Star wars the old repubic, Im about to get a new macbook pro with retina display if I upgrade as much as I can afford, about $3000 will I be able to play the game straight out of the box with boot camp and windows 7 or 8, and will the game run with pretty good performance without further upgrade, this is what I would be putting onto the macbook.
    2.6GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
    16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
    512GB Flash Storage
    Apple USB SuperDrive
    Backlit Keyboard (English) & User's Guide (English)
    Im good with macs, but not really good at figuring which would be the best at playing the game!
    thanks!

    Checking out compatibility with Lion seems fine, but I don't know about Mountain Lion - you may want to contact the developer. I never got into games on a Mac, but your configuration should work without any problems.

  • Star Wars: The Old Republic

    Just to say, I think we in the apple community should push apple and the makers of star wars the old republic to make there games able to run on Mac OS. I know for a fact that any macbook and macbook pro from 2010 and up can easily run the game nativly and probably much better since it's a mac!

  • I want to get Star Wars the old republic on my mac.

    If I use bootcamp, do I also need to get windows? Or can I just install SWTOR and run it through boot camp? (I am admittedly a novice)

    You will need a copy of Windows.

  • Anyone playing Star Wars Galaxies on XP on MB?

    Hi all!
    I'm thinking about getting a Macbook. I know it's not a great gaming machine, but I do like to do some casual gaming.
    I got an iMac so I've been doing most of the playing on there.
    Just wanted to know if anyone's played Star Wars Galaxies on the Macbook under XP?
    Obviously I know I won't be able to use all the display options, but wanted to know if it's even playable.
    Thanks.

    UPdate to my own question.
    It plays great!

  • Star Wars the Force Unleashed "Slow Motion (commonly known as a form of lag)"

         I have been attempting to run the game "Star Wars the Force Unleashed," on a 13-inch MacBook Pro Late 2011 with Intel Graphics HD 3000, 500 gb hard drive, 2.4 GHz processor speed, and 4 gig ram, and the game seems to be going in "slow motion (commonly known as a form of lag)."  I have done my resurch and my sources have told me that I might have to turn off v-sync.  I have not found a way to do this and I was wondering what might be a way of doing this, or is there anothers solution?  Your contribution would be much appreciated.

  • Knights of the Old Republic slow in 10.4.4

    Ok, ever since I've updated to Mac OS X 10.4.4, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic has been running extremely slow to the point were it's impossible to play. Does anybody have any ideas as to why this is happening? Everything else on my computer is running pretty much just like it used to before the 10.4.4 update. Please, help me.

    where do you keep the program?
    if you keep it in the Application folder move it to the top level.
    from the finder click on your hard-drive and create a folder I call mine "Games"
    move KOR to the new folder.
    since this was recommend to me I moved all my games there and haven't had a problem.
    after you move KOR run a App like Disk Warrior, and repair permissions from your install disk.

  • Problems with loading Star Wars The Force Unleashed

    Can I get a refund from Apple Apps? a few days ago I loaded "Star Wars The Force Unleashed from Apple Apps." When the game loads the opening page has three lines across the bottom, such as: NEW GAME   CONTINUE GAME   LOAD GAME.  Beneath that list is another line with the words “use keyboard to navigate menus." There is a list of keys to use but none of them work on the game. However, keys F19, F18 and F17 do change the order and the highlights on the bottom line but still provide no further help. I discovered this only by experimenting with various keys. Aspyr support says the opening screen is followed by a tutorial. There is no tutorial. After the first screen has been showing for a short time the game continues into a series of action scenes and then returns to the original opening page. There is no way to close or eject the game. It only endlessly repeats the same opening display. I cannot remove or eject the game except to shut down and reload. None of the instructions offered by Aspyr have assisted me in any way. I could, of course, remove the game entirely but would I get a refund then?

    Hello, Im new to this website. Im having issues with my Macbook. I have the old 2009 model Macbook and it is our schools macbook. The school just upgraded these MacBooks to OSX Mavericks and when i try to open Minecraft it won't let me. It says no jdk installed. I also try to install Java SE runtime but half way through the Software Update it says cant download software because of network problem but I'm connected to the internet and i can browse stuff just fine. Can any one help with my problems. P.S. I don't know the administrator password or stuff like that. And yes we are allowed to play games and stuff on these laptops but only at home not at school so don't tell me i need to focus on school and not games. 

    Since you updated the operating system, it is probably Minecraft is missing certain files that ware remove or are not longer comparable with the new version of the OSX. what I recommend, is to check is there is an update for Minecraft and install that. If there is not update available, probably the best thing will be reinstalling Minecraft. Hope this will help you.

    Hello farahani hairon nizar,
    If your Apple ID was changed from your old account, you may have to change it back to your old account to be able to sign out and then change it back after that is done. Take a look at the article below for more information.

    I should have added to my posting (instead of using this "reply" -  it is the server passwork it is asking for and I have never known that I had one and assumed it was the passwork I always used for this type of thing.
