Today I downloaded the Game death stranding on a new MacBook M3 Max (Sonoma). I could not start it under admin rights. The game was only to see in the menu line, but no game window started. I tried this twice.
The process could not be terminated by menu only by hard shutdown.
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.2
Thx a lot. Now it works . The downloaded Part was Not the App, but the directory. Was my fault. Inside is the executable.
I had the same problem. After i had activate my profile in game center in the preferences the game startet. good luck!
Hi Fragenwill,
If you're experiencing issues with launching Death Stranding on your MacBook M3 Max, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve the problem:
1.Check System Requirements:
Ensure that your MacBook M3 Max meets the minimum system requirements for Death Stranding. Confirm that your hardware specifications, including graphics capabilities, are compatible with the game.
2.Update Graphics Drivers:
Make sure that your graphics drivers are up to date. Visit the website of the graphics card manufacturer (such as Intel, AMD, or NVIDIA) to download and install the latest drivers for your graphics card.
3.Verify Game Files:
If you're using a platform like Steam, verify the integrity of the game files. This process will check for and fix any corrupted or missing files. On Steam, right-click on the game in your library, go to "Properties," navigate to the "Local Files" tab, and click "Verify Integrity of Game Files."
4.Compatibility Mode:
Try running the game in compatibility mode. Right-click on the game's executable file, choose "Get Info," and check the box for "Open using Rosetta." This can help with compatibility on M1 or M2 Macs.
5.Check for Game Updates:
Ensure that Death Stranding is updated to the latest version. Developers often release patches and updates to address compatibility issues and improve performance.
6.Contact Support:
If the issue persists, consider reaching out to the game's support or the platform from which you purchased the game (e.g., Steam, Epic Games Store). They may provide additional guidance or have specific solutions for macOS.
7.macOS Updates:
Ensure that your macOS is up to date. Check for any available system updates and install them. Apple often releases updates that can improve compatibility with software.
8.Apple Silicon Support:
Check if the game has official support for Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3) architecture. Some games may not yet be optimized for the latest Apple Silicon chips.
If none of the above solutions work, consider contacting the game's support or the platform's support for further assistance. They may be able to provide specific guidance based on your system configuration and the game's requirements.
Good luck!
