Quoting: wolfyrion...
Lets say they release Serious Sam 4 or Half-Life 3(cough) --- the game is crashing and freezing in windows but is performing amazing in Linux. Windows Users are frustrated from Valve.....
Valve responds about crashing & freezes on windows "Get a real OS switch to Linux"

You made my day!
Sadly, this is real only in parallel universe (yet).

There are no significant increase yet, even CS:GO will not improve situation in numbers... There are should be hardware pushing with Ubuntu/Debian preinstalled, only then may be...

There a places where internet are restricted (a various kinds of restricts, include p2p block, speed limitation, firewall limitation and so on), very expensive or just not present at all.
For example, if you live in Canada, Russia, China, Australia or any other big country - there are a lot of places, where is no Internet except the satellite ones (1 MB = 50 USD, yeah).
Then, if Steam suddenly goes permament offline (I don't wish it), you will lose not only achievements, but games indeed. As for I am.
What's why I prefer GOG for old games which I plaed back to school times, or HB for new indies. Steam provide a lot of useful value-added services, but there are also Steam's cons...
As for example: there are a lot of complains about Steam's refund policy... oh, one moment please, there are no refund policy on Steam at all as well there no guarantee of satisfaction or even running on your shiny new PC ;D You could buy rubbish game with misads and there are no possible way to refund... If you try to do it via chargeback - you could be banned from Steam for ages.

Quoting: Maquis196I wonder if we buy it now on special we'll certainly count as a "windows install" even though bought on Linux client, but long term surely they'd have metrics to see who bought it via Linux client and playing it on Linux.

I agree its best to buy a game when theres a Linux version out so we know they've actually done the work and not conned us, but damn... there is afterall a sale on :D.

Otoh, good to support these guys with maximum revenue, but I don't know about you lot but I'm struggling to keep up with the number of Linux games on our platform now, up to about 185 now and they keep coming which is both :) and :( (for wallet + time reasons).

I bought it as Gift on Linux machine with 80% off flash sale.
I'll redeem it when linux version will be available.

As for me, I'm avoid UPlay as plague.
DRM - almost always is bad, 'cause anybody who want to download game for free, could do it. It's just against honest people.
Argh, I still have a few disk with Starforce... which I never could play again.

Quoting: Xpander

Quoting: omer666If their Linux port is as ***ty as their support for the first Killing Floor on Linux, well, no thanks.

whats wrong with first Killing Floor... i have played it for good 8-10 hours without any issues.
also if i remember correctly their first port is done by icculus, who probably got the money already but is not able to polish it up...correct me if im wrong though...

good news on the next Killing Floor... cant wait!

I have experienced a resolution problem - no one from my 3 PCs can run it on resolution more than 800x600. Even more - after closing program, usually my Desktop resolution also was set to 800x600.
I tried a few workarounds, no one from them works for me.
And yeap - there were no help.
It should be noticed, even then game was quite playable.
