Oh Techland, if Dying Light wasn't one of our very few open world games I would probably like you a lot less. You might be wondering why I am being rather blunt, well, their latest patch for Dying Light has removed everyone's heads on Linux.

They don't have the best history with Dying Light, and now even more so. I wonder how long they will leave it in this state. I have of course sent their twitter accounts a message about this.

I have also emailed it to my Techland contact. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I had a bug where i walked into a room and the frame rate plummeted from it's stellar 25 all the way down to 7 exactly, and it stayed that way for the rest of the game. Rebooting/reinstalling did nothing. At least my headless NPCs are now back to glorious 25fps! /s

i had a bug where in the story mode the jeep was in motion on a cut sequence and the wheels were rotating around the car as it drove about 10 meters in front

same thing for me.

Lets see it that way, other devs/publishers would charge 10$ for headless DLC, and we get it for free xD

I haven't updated yet, do I have to stay in offline mode to prevent this patch?

I had that bug too, was quite a sight seeing the wheels bugger off.

Same problem here, since last update, with nvidia also :P

This is not the only issue that this game has,
The Multiplayer is also completely broken for a long time now. When you join a game you are getting instant kicked.

It seems that there is no maintenance anymore on the Linux version for a long time, are the 2 Linux Devs on Techland still working there?

I am 100% sure this is a returning bug. It was like this for me at one stage earlier, back when the frame rate were unbearable too.
