Quoting: Beamboom

so many bugs from so many different distros

Ok, not to be a jerk or anything but to be bluntly honest here, in this context I think Linux users on other distros than the officially supported distro on Steam - Ubuntu - should just stuff it and stop reporting bugs and either find a solution themselves or dual boot into Ubuntu for gaming. Plain and simple.

That's true. I have SteamOS and Arch. If something doesn't work on Arch, I first check if it works on SteamOS before bothering the devs. Sometimes it's the other way round, in that case it's worth reporting, as all games on steam should work on Ubuntu and SteamOS as they're official target platforms. Also it's something else to report a bug and to seek for help in the forums. The latter I think is ok regardless of the distro you're running, but you should state it loud and clear. Bug reports should only refer to supported platforms.

I wonder though, if those are Linux-specific bugs, and how many bugs there really are. Because the fact that there are a lot bug reports from Linux users doesn't say anything by itself. They may be reporting general bugs that exist across all platforms, and also many users can report the same single bug. All in all I think it's a bit lazy of the dev to shut down the Linux version just because he didn't feel like reading bug reports. If it was utterly broken, well, that would be another story.

Quoting: thelimeydragon#68 Appears to be the same photo in the Wikipedia article on the route:

Good catch!

It goes through Waterloo Station, so I thought Napoleon: Total War, but it's already on Mac, so no. I hope it's the new TR.

Quoting: MoraI was impressed that there was that many comments without it turning into an argument/rant like most Linux threads do.

Maybe because the thread has been started by the dev, so there is no place for the usual "the devs are surely not interested" etc.

Quoting: TuxeeIt might be a gift, but "Little Racers STREET" doesn't even start. And according to the Steam forum I am far from alone... Anyone got this working?

I bought it on release and played 9+ hours without any problems (on Debian Testing). Just tried it again and yeah, it doesn't seem to start (Arch Linux).

Works on SteamOS though.

I haven't missed any Humble Indie Bundle so I will buy this one as well. Shame that I'm only missing Beholder and Owlboy, but the bundle is amazing all the same.

Quoting: KimyrielleI still hope they will release the Elusive targets as a pack one day, so we can enjoy them whenever we want, as it should be.

True, it should be that way. I don't care for the suits, but I'd like to play all of the ET's just as normal missions. No save etc. is fine - like with escalations - just make them available...

Quoting: DribbleondoIf my theory is correct, then Season 2 might be coming to Linux on Day 1. The way Hitman: No subtitle is designed is like a portal, with new stuff coming every now and again for ALL platforms. I would expect Season 2 to follow that logic, otherwise, you're leaving the Linux folks out in the cold.

Even if Season 2 won't be just a bunch of DLCs for the current game, it will at the very least be on the same engine, so yeah, should be day one probably. One would still hope that they re-enable the past elusive targets at some point, maybe only for those who didn't have a chance to try them yet - this way latecomers (including Linux players) could still enjoy them but the others wouldn't be given a second shot, as per design. As it is now, we are not able to unlock some of the suits, for example the ones requiring completion of 10 and 13 elusive targets, when Linux players will only have had access to six such contracts in total.

"This target will be in Sapienza for 11 days and is one of the final three Elusive Targets to be released for the first season of HITMAN."

Well that's not a very good news for Linux gamers. I've played Hitman since the Linux release and only had a chance to do three elusive targets (four with the current one), missing the previous 20. :-(
