Hey guys,

I've already searched a bit through the forums but still have this problem. I'm running Mac OS Leopard (10.5.8, Which may be the problem) on a Mac Mini. I have 2 GB of RAM, no firewall, admin privileges, and my drivers are up to date. I've reinstalled the game a few times, but with the same result. Screen is white for a second or two and then goes black and does nothing.

Hey Sideshift,

A black screen usually means a file didn't download correctly during the patching process.

I've uploaded a full download of the game. So it won't need to patch here:

Subsequent patches should be much smaller and less prone to corruption.

Hey Jake,

I tried it twice but it's still the same result. The file I downloaded was 487 MB. I'm really not sure what's going on. Sorry about that!

I also had this black screen of death during one of my matches last night.

I'm running on windows 7 so i doubt its just a mac issue as well.
