To the people asking about the fullscreen mode used, it was stated in the article:
QuoteI spoke to the person who did it on twitter, he mentioned both Windows/Linux were done in borderless fullscreen mode.

Quoting: coruunI wonder, how this relates to Phoronix' results of 107FPS (compared to his 80FPS) for the 4K Vulkan test.I imagine compositor issues (compiz anyone?) mixed with the different demo file.
Is this simply the "difficult" scene or are there some other problems?!

Quoting: devlandNo one is sensationalising anything. These are the facts.QuoteWhat are your thoughts, any theories?
Vulkan is a new API. So far all performance tests yielded similar results. This was expected and is not news.
Please don't sensationalize the issue. Vulkan will get better in time as will it's implementation by game developers. :)
Quoting: rkfgFrom reddit:I don't see the point, since I have a 980ti, not the 1080 that was tested. Totally different generation.
QuoteMaybe the Linux driver is still not perfect for the 1080 card?
From Phoronix, discussing the latest beta driver:
The NVIDIA 367.18 Linux driver doesn't explicitly mention any Pascal support for the new GTX 1070 and GTX 1080, but I believe that's in there too. The next driver release though should officially mention this new graphics card support.
So that suggests to me that the tested driver (not sure of the Linux version he used, I assume the latest stable) is not great for the 1080.
Liam, you have Windows and you can test the renderer yourself. 980Ti should be supported very well and this concern would be struck out.
MAV, a custom mech combat game will come to Linux, looks great

Graphics don't make a game. Sure it looks a little dated, but the gameplay looks fun.

No it's fine. I'm glad you agree with our view on it.
Let me be clear though, any comments after this talking about ripping off developers for x reason will just be removed.
Imagine if the developers are reading these comments (and developers do, we have plenty of them here already). Think before you type.

Seriously Swiftpaw, I already had to clear up the comments once and I sent you a polite PM apologising if you previously felt I wasn't being nice in my comments. Let's not start this again.
