- do you play on battery or always plugged into power?

ldntown520 Thanks. Can you play in windowed mode and see if it still crashes? Have Activity Monitor open (Applications > Utilities) and sort by memory. When you load the game flick between the game and Activity Monitor every few minutes and see how much memory the game is using, probably ~3.5-4GB. Look at the bottom of the Activity Monitor window and see how much memory you have available on your Mac when the game is launched. It's definitely worth doing this after restarting your Mac as that will clear virtual memory (hard disk space used as additional RAM).
