Steam Mac Player cannot play online
Hi guys,
I'm new here. I just bought BO3 and once launched the game it says that "I'm offline" and It cannot connect to the online services of Call Of Duty BO3 and that the servers might be under maintenance.

Someone can help me please

A project has been created that solves many of the problems on the macOS version of the game, including the problems of not being able to load custom maps as well as the inability to connect to online and the inability to crossplay with the Windows version:

The Mac version is behind on updates. Your only solution currently if you want to play online is to run the game on Windows.
Edit: seems to no longer be the case for playing online.

Steam support would be better suited to answer that.

This post was made when Mac users would face an ABC error showing the letters AFT when trying to connect to online services. However, it seems that this problem has been fixed, and Mac users can now connect to online services. Unfortunately, Mac users are still unable to play with Windows users due to the Mac version being behind on updates.

Check the game’s version from the top-right. If it still starts with 98, then I doubt there’s crossplay.

Wait for a fix or switch to Windows.
