Mac and
Linux Users
Rejoice!
During Hilmar Petursson's keynote speech on Saturday, CCP's CEO and
Transgaming President and CEO Vikas Gupta announced the release date
and feature set of the EVE Online client for Mac and Linux. CCP isn't
known for to hold back when an innovative new release is ready, and so
it goes that Transgaming's cross-OS client will make its debut within
the week.
So what should we expect from the new Mac / Linux EVE
client? According
to Transgaming Technologies CEO and president Vikas Gupta: "The same
graphics quality... same performance... the same beautiful environments
as they're being upgraded. The only thing we're doing is on the Mac
specifically- over time we're going to be adding Mac-specific custom
features. So essentially what we're going to be doing is to give Mac
users the same user friendly enviroment they've become accustomed to...
A great example of that is multiple windows. In fact, in Leopard you
can actually be running 4 sessions of EVE simulataneously."
