Platform notes (practical)
Windows

- update GPU drivers
- install on SSD
- keep background downloads off while you test multiplayer
macOS
Apple Silicon is supported via the official launcher downloads.
Linux
The official page lists Linux x64 support. The usual advice applies:
- keep drivers current
- use SSD
- test multiplayer with a stable connection
Quick performance and networking tips
- SSD helps load times and reduces stutters.
- Multiplayer uses UDP/QUIC, so strict firewalls/VPNs can affect connectivity.
