What have you been clicking on this weekend?

The weekend is almost over and a nice week full of news is about to begin. Before it does, let's get talking! What have you been playing?

Brigador: Up-Armored Edition has been sucking up a lot of my time recently, thanks to a new update coming out with a bit of new content. I have so much love for the destruction in this game it's unreal! This is where I have honestly spent most of my time, stomping on everything and identifying explosive areas to set off fun chain-reactions from a shot or two and just watching everything go to hell. Love the customization too, plenty to unlock from vehicles to pilot to ridiculously powerful weapons.

Since Abandon Ship got a Linux beta recently, I've also been putting some time into that while chatting to the developer to help ensure a smooth release later this month.

I also helped the developer of Elteria Adventures identify a bug preventing the upcoming Linux version from launching, so that was fun too.

Cs:go remains my go to game , usually just casual matches in battle royal mode. Hope they add a third map to the rotation.

Cool to see all the other stuff posted though, including the majestic carrot.

Fortresscraft Evolved is still eating away at my CPU. I feel like it's too addictive, I need to step back for a month or so. But I need to automate that last part to be able to process all free resources.
Dominatrix simulator is too hard on my thinkpad T430 with R9-270 as expresscard eGPU to submit to. I had to use the save word.

As Space Mercs was just released, I gave that a shot. Pretty different to Everspace, especially the steering. But cool to read that a significant amount of Linux gamers bought it.

Clicking might then not be the right expression, but I was trying to further improve my stamina and aiming skills in Beat Saber. Gosh, this game is so good. I still need to adapt to the Index controllers (fka knuckles) though. I get many bad cuts atm, especially on the higher difficulties. Another excuse is, that I'm old already :D

Ultima Underworld 2. I started a game of UU1 before I remembered how much better UU2 is. Also started another run of Wizardry VI (to be carried on through to 8), which gives me all the feels.

Still Fallout 4 here. This game is just so MASSIVE. The amount of content really boggles my mind.

An interesting thing I've noticed is that now, after 160 hours played, I've started appreciating the parts that I ignored earlier, namely the camp/workshop management bits.

A fantastic game.

As in the recent days, I spent a few hours in 7 Days 2 Die.
The game is really relaxing when you're in party with others.

Quoting: iiari
Quoting: emp64Arma 3 through Proton
So what can you do on this one at this point? Doesn't anticheat prevent MP?
Battleye does not work when using Proton, but you can still play on servers that don't use it. Like this one https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/arma3/3663866 . There are also some other servers where there are people most of the time. I know about one that has Antistasi mission always on and most of the time there are people (sometimes even around 20 players).

CS:GO as usual, but also played through The Forest (w/Proton) in one sitting with a friend.

Bought and launched Mad Max so I'll guess that I'll be stuck with my computer for 100-200hours. Don't know how my employer will react though...

My R9 Fury keeps hanging on various games:
  • Risk of rain 2 (the scorched acres stage will trigger this)

  • No man's sky (at some point, if I follow the main storyline, it hangs)

  • Ryze, son of rome

  • Verdun hung the GPU once

  • Mad Max: Changing the graphics settings to high hung the GPU two days ago, which it didn't use to


So I set out to compile my own mesa-git and llvm-git. As compilation with 16 threads is quite intensive on my CPU, I couldn't play realtime games where timing is important. That's why I mostly played FTL: Faster Than Light, and Crypt of the Necrodancer with bard. It was actually my first time with the latter game. I'm hooked!

I'm starting to suspect a hardware failure on my GPU, would someone with the same be willing to try and reproduce some of my hangs?
I hate it, as the system doesn't recover in case of such hangs, and I have no logs to share.
