As a mac guy who duel-booted specifically for this game, thank you. I am downloading right now and am super impressed that you guys put in so much work to make your amazing game available to so many more people. It's that kind of dedication to player experience and broad business-minded ambition that makes your company succeed and (hopefully) lead the way in the gaming industry for years to come.

Why doesn't Riot hire Boompje, they've had a client for about 2 years now.

Our client is a port. The Riot client is native. Once all the bugs are worked out it should have better performance and break less. Also since they made it they can officially support as a company.

This has been a long time coming (and I was one of the later additions to the team). As mentioned, unlike the community projects and 'old' client this has been a ground up rewrite of the game -- it runs as a native mac application with opengl and so forth, not a 'translated' application. This means better performance and that we are able to release day and date with every patch. I'm super proud to have been a part of this.

Looks like Boompje and the team is going to have a break

""LoLPBEInstaller.pkg" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

Safari downloaded this file today at 6:03 PM from l3cdn.riotgames.com." (I'm assuming it's an L not an I)

Regardless, I downloaded this on my computer. One that has Bootcamp and plays LoL on my windows side just fine at 60FPS at all times.

I'm currently on the mac side of my computer upon downloading this and this is exactly what comes up, I've tried re-downloading it. My computer is 100% up to date and definitely able to play this game as it has in the past.

Help, I guess?
