It's a shame, but it certainly looks like Mad Max isn't actually coming out for SteamOS & Linux. We covered it initially thanks to being told about the press release, but nothing since then. The developers have been utterly silent on it, which is quite annoying. It's one thing to announce something and publicly state it's no longer happening, but to be totally silent on it is just weird.
It's highly probable having SteamOS in the press release was an "accident", but it's also likely it was planned and silently dropped.
The sad thing is, the Steam forum post asking about it has now been locked after it was totally derailed. In part this was thanks to the moderator "Laptop65" who also moderates a number of other Steam forums, and he's quite anti-Linux. I won't link to it directly, as I don't want to start a witch hunt.
Time to move on, and carry on supporting the developers that bring us lovely games. People keep tweeting and emailing in asking about it, so I'm telling you now: move on.

On a different topic: Do you have any contacts to Codemasters? I just got a Steam key for Dirt Rally and would like to know if a SteamOS/Linux version is planned, not that unlikely since DiRT Showdown has a Linux version.

And also a little surprising that he is a moderator with that attitude considering the big push by Valve for Linux support.
The moderator is an asshole sorry to say so, but that's how I perceived it in previous posts.
This is their loss, not ours.
Apparently this guy also thinks work is only done with Office.

But since SteamOS have been removed of the original press release I think he is probably right, the game will not come to SteamOS.

The next Linux Thread are closed? Loooool.
One could report laptop once to Steam/Valve, as he did not represent Valves Intressen and is not neutrality maintains that should however have a moderator.
