Well speaking for Day Z I can hardly imagine that a Mac pro can handle the ArmA engine with decent settings.

Do you maybe already have experience with other games using the unreal 3 engine?

Perhaps post your specifications. Processor? Video Card?

Also, if you bought the newest iteration of the "Macbook," with a decent video card, it should be able to run RO2...just not on the "Retina display" (fancy word for really high res) resolution.

you bought a Mac? too late for that, then! just kidding. i couldn't help myself.
there's been sightings of people with macs playing the game before. there was mention of a "boot camp" program to make it work.
i know nothing of Mac, other than lost of people seem to hate crashing on them, but any new computer with the cajones to put "PRO" in it's title, better be able to play this game! my $600 homebuilt monstrosity runs it awesome.

p.s. which model did you buy?

Here is a thread from a member that got his macbook to run RO2. My advice is to send him a PM and ask a bit more details.
