Install on Mac OS

I'm not sure what I'm going wrong. I just tried to install it for the first time on my Mac. The download is like instant and takes 0 bytes... It's like the game doesn't even exist even though Steam let me install it...

Does anyone else have this problem?

Thx

Well it wasn't until now... It's the first time Steam is letting me downloading it and installing it. Before it gave me the error message: "Wrong platform"

i could only think that when the patch for 181.0 comes out it will work then. You can just hope :D

Check the patch notes in the sticky: http://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/594820656447032287/
It says the update on tuesday (yet to come) will "Preparation for tomorrow's Mac & Linux game releases :) ".

It's not released on mac yet, hence steam not having any data to download. They will announce it soon.

Still no way to download the game on Mac... Steam downloads an empty shell and that's it :(

They said it would be realesed an hour ago but I am having the 0/0 bytes downloaded problem as well. I guess I shouldn't be too picky about when I play the game since they have gone to all this trouble to make a mac version which most companies don't do. I will ry again tomorrow and hope it is just another minor delay.

Seriously, go buy a pc, cheaper, and better gaming platform, idk why you buy a mac, then cry cause you cant game on it.

because almost all companies secifically make games for consoles, and or pc. pretty common sense.
