Quoting: g000hI also chose Downfall, assuming that I'd play it with Proton, but pleased to say that it also seems to have an unofficial Linux build.They say they took the native build "offline" [External Link] in favour of Proton...?

* First digits but last two (9 of 970, 10 of 1060, 16 of 1650) is the generation.
* Last two digits is the class inside the generation (the higher, the better).
I don't know if it's still the case, but I used to compare the speed of one generation newer, one class below, like 970 has about the potential of 1060.
Don't believe me without checking actual performance benchmarks.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPThese graphics cards numbers are just confusing, at least to people like me, who upgrade their rig maybe once every 2-3 years, and then just care about "is this better? yes/no".The rule of thumb I internalised is:
You'd think a higher number is downright better - but it just isn't.

Quoting: g000hThere are probably numerous other "Windows only" titles which I'd be more willing to buy if I knew they had a hidden, working Linux build.This sounds like a good GoL wiki page topic...

Valve ends Counter-Strike: Global Offensive container key trading and selling

Strange bug indeed. :D
Some repect to people playing around with such stuff and finding out.
None to those exploiting it afterwards, though.

Quoting: TheSHEEEP“Players can no longer avoid damage with an invalid player name”?When you lookup the player by name and don't find it in some list due to a very broken name?
How did that even work?

I just had bought it (due to GoL recommendation) some days before the update, played an hour or so into it - and it's a nice game!
