OSX 10.8, Firefox - Game crashes when leaving the game

[jayP]

I've had to play on a Macintosh until my PC gets fixed and I've noticed that QL will crash at random times in game and also when I quit out of a game it crashes the browser. I'm not sure if there is a solution to this, anyone else experience this?

jayP.. it's due to the bad coding that Id did for QL. After 3 years they still have not fixed it. You'll also notice that you can't get over 80 FPS. Yet they will happily take your money if you buy Pro for a broken product.

At least they are honest enough to say that QL for OSX is still beta. At Almost 3 years old! Don't hold your breath waiting for Id to fix it..

Try safari. It works fine for me.

Yeah I didn't really expect any solution from id, I know QL is a just a minor project for them...on OSX it's remarkable that that they even got that out. I was more hoping someone from the community had some experience with it and had a solution.

.....Someone like Jaza :]

Thanks for the Safari tip Jaza, I'll try that out and see if the game is more stable.

Wow, Safari is much better for QL on OSX :]

I did take not that after I played I was spammed with awards, I assume those awards are the accumulated awards from when I was playing through Firefox. I'm wondering if those awards are what was causing the game/browser to crash in FF, because I never got any when I was using that browser. Just throwing that observation out there if id ever decides to look into the instability of that browser with osx...
