Arma 3 Compared On SteamOS & Windows
9 Sep 2015 at 3:11 pm UTC

Quoting: dubigrasu
Quoting: maodzedun
Quoting: dubigrasuWhat puzzles me is why so much fuss about this particularly benchmark ?
There are other benchmarks (big titles) there as well that went unnoticed.
Because it's one done with a wrapper and it shows the best results compared to the original Windows version of the game among all AAA Linux ports. And not just any game, but one that is legendary for its heavy graphics and horrible optimization.
I don't know...Bioshock is also with a wrapper, Dirt (wrapper too) shows also much better results while the Witcher was the most controversial of all.
Anyway, I didn't expected this reaction.
Yes.

The Witcher 2: eON Wrapper
BioShock Infinite: eON Wrapper
DiRT Showdown: eON Wrapper
SpecOps The Line: eON Wrapper
Arma 3: eON Wrapper

I count 5 eON wrapped games, not one.

Arma 3 Compared On SteamOS & Windows

Quoting: metro2033fanboyyet not avaiable !
Only if you own the Windows version, you can use the Beta Version from Arma 3.
It's not even sure if there will be an official Published release of Linux and Mac version.

Quoting: BeamboomWell, they all use the same engine, maybe even the exact same, so it may not be that surprising after all.

I just hope it's a native port, hopefully even with the bugs ironed out. But... I don't hold my breath.
What do you mean native? After the "wrapping" VP has done with Dirt and Arma 3, it could end up having better performance if VP did these ones too. Sure, if it was native, there is a chance they could get the OpenGL performance up to be better than Windows, or on par with it, but it does take more work to do that AFAIK.
Deep Silver Port's are in House port's. I never seen a external Port from Deep Silver.

Ok, the Saints Row Series is now a Deep silver Game series and we know: Deep Silver loves Linux.

I think we get all Deep Silver titles on Linux/SteamOS.

Mighty No. 9 is now a Deep Silver Title and will have a day one Linux release.

KING Art Games Announces Linux Version Of Fantasy RPG 'The Dwarves'
8 Sep 2015 at 9:47 am UTC

Quoting: KeyrockKING Art are a quality developer. The Book of Unwritten Tales games were quite good. I don't know if I'll pledge (I've grown weary of crowdfunding in general), but it's a game I'd certainly consider buying when it releases.
Yes you are full right.
