Deep Silver Buys The Rights To Homefront From Crytek, Linux Now Uncertain

Quoting: BeamboomWell, at the very least on Deep Silvers homepage they got a banner saying "Homefront Revolution: Coming to Xbox One, Playstation 4, OC, Mac and Linux in 2015".

That was there pre-acquisition, was it not?

Quoting: neffo* Correction they are teasing new Mac games.
Well, Castle of Illusion is Mac only, it seems, certainly. But the status of the other games is unknown.

It'd be nice for Feral to distinguish between those titles which are Mac only and those that are Mac and Linux.
Neffo is correct, these are Mac titles only. https://twitter.com/feralgames/status/493725434463649792 [External Link]

Quoting: AstroLinux community doesn't need other ports. We're completely disappointed in XCOM.

Open Source Morrowind Engine OpenMW 0.31.0 Released
19 Jul 2014 at 11:58 am UTC

Running an AMD FX-6300 (3.5Ghz running at 3.8), Radeon HD 6670. 1920x1080, tending to get anywhere from 10 to 30fps (proprietary drivers). Same GPU but with an ancient Athlon X2 CPU, I was lucky to get 7fps maximum. Considering AMD's notoriously bad Linux drivers, for an unoptimised engine that isn't bad at all. This is using an install that had had MOSG 3.0 installed on it, too.

Just a few notes to repeat what I said on the FB posting:

* It supports both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries.
* More importantly, the Steam version does NOT require the Steam client running in order to play it.
