I wonder if it works better with Hidpi than before or the same ? Can't check on my desktop until December because I'm outside of the country for vacations :D

Quoting: GuestWonder if I'll be able to play this at 60FPS+ at 4K with some graphics options lowered...probably not though! :D
I could max out the game in 4k with a 770 at 60fps with windows. I don't know what configuration you've but if the port is good it wouldn't be so difficult :D

What have you been playing recently, and what do you think?

the reviews are mixed but seems they patched a lot of bugs in the last patchs so we'll see if the game is worth it with the performances issues fixed.

Quoting: omer666

Quoting: omer666On my rig, the game doesn't steal focus on startup, and it still doesn't connect to Relic servers no matter what. I think the second issue is Relic/Sega-related, but the first one is new.
I don't know if it's a similar problem with the certs that I had on borderlands 2 but for archlinux doing a ln -s /etc/ssl /usr/lib/ssl fixed the problem with the game with SHIFT servers , maybe something similar in your case.

The path is maybe different but I think it could help you.
That's quite strange as I can connect to Shift without any problem, including on Arch (which used to be installed on my computer until I switched to Fedora). But I'll look into this, thanks a lot.
I used this a long time ago so maybe it's not needed anymore with borderlands 2 but I have an old install of arch and it was the trick for shift servers back then. Relic servers seems to work for me.So maybe it helps ? don't know :D But I hope it could help you .

Ori would be nice too :D
But it's a good news for this game that seems interesting.
