I have also re-evaluated the game and re-subbed.
Version 1.18.4 is stable and playable again, but more - with the addition of a couple of new Mac programmers - from all reports the upcoming 1.19 release will be the best yet for the Mac player base - and looks to only get better.
There have been several posts about minimum system requirements for decent gameplay, but I can only say that I play ok on an 867 G4, with 1.5 gig RAM, and a 32Mb Video Card. This should probably be the current minimum.
This is an insanely addictive game, which is perhaps why passions run so high when people review it - when we can't get our "fix", we spiral into an ugly withdrawl - this also says a lot about how great this game really is.

I have a buddy who can play it with his high end G5 so I have no idea what the real minimum spec's are, I only know they fall somewhere in between what I have and a G5 with all the bells and whistles.

If you don't have a G5 with plenty of memory, a gamer quality video card, and a fast connection - Don't even bother!

The big problem with this game is that CRS (Cornered Rat Software- the WWII Online developers) is often too quick to release updates or patches that haven't been thoroughly tested and all too often -such as in the current release update 1.18.2- the game comes to a screeching halt due to numerous bugs and/or OS compatability issues.
In CRS's favor, they usually work out most of the kinks within a week or two of an "update". The down-side is that they seem to feel the need to constantly (almost monthly now) add frills and goodies (new weapons, visual enhancements, etc) at a feverish pace- then rush it into game play without thorough Beta-testing.
This is, once again, the major issue with 1.18.2 and though I'm a long time subscriber and avid fan - I simply can't take the frustration of having the game not work half the time anymore and have un-subbed as of today.

Only downside is steep system requirements.

Support for the Mac platform is nonexistant. There have been references made to thier 'mac guy' and even given some extra help. But once again, bugs exist in this game that have been there for 16+ months and nothing has been done about it. I personally have had several service tickets outstanding since a month after I started. I am not alone on this eather. Dozens of Mac people have gotten ignored. Several players have been overbilled.
If you insist on trying this game, do so with the utmost caution. It's a great idea. Just really poor implimentation. Graphics are old, fps are SLOW even on a windows box, play options are limited even with full rank, support is a joke, bugs are abundant, billing is scary, the half dozen mac die-hards are the people you'll come to know and joke with, they are a good bunch. Unfortantly I really have no need to pay for a chat forum. Try it if you must, but be cautious.

I do wish they'd optimize for the Mac even more, but I'm having a blast in game. Then again, you'd probably have more fun with a scripted twitch game like Call of Onan, uh Call of Duty, why not try that?

The most recent Update has caused the game to be UNPLAYABLE for anyone one versions of OSX below 10.3 (the majority of the community of Mac players despite CRS's lies).
CRS has stated on their "support" boards that they will no longer be patching Mac versions below 10.3 Oddly they announced this long after they collected advanced payments from mac users and ONLY because of ANOTHER patching problem.
CRS has ONE MAC PROGRAMMER, and this guy (RickB) has stated that he has not seen Mac code in MONTHS. it seems they keep him busy with other work and ignore the Mac needs!
A recent CRS poll revealed that there are less then FORTY Mac players of wwii online and that base is full of CRS "friends" and fanboys that attempt to shout down any criticism of wwii online and thus hamper any attempts to force the rats to give us what we paid for.
Oddly, the fanboys are too stupid to see that their "we love you no matter what" posts to CRS are the main reason this company has never tried to make the Mac client playable.
There are "show stopping bugs" such as the sound bug that are MONTHS old in this game that have NEVER been addressed at all despite complaints and support requests.
Why bother, the rats get paid from the fanboys parents once a month to baby sit their drooling kids no matter how poor the product.
I'm shocked no one ever initiated a class action Vs. CRS and Playnet. They NEVER delivered on the sales pitch and there are laws that protect people from deceptive sales practices such as theirs.
This game has been nothing but a scam from day one.
Mac version, blah, I feel like I got a better deal from bioware with my NWN toolset.
