For the Germans among us:
Now it goes loose!
Frozen Synapse 2 announced, dev confirmed to us it will be on Linux

The first one was a great one! (...and my first game on Linux AFAIR!)
Very friendly online community!
XCOM 2 is so popular it has beaten the all time peak player count of a number of games

Quoting: zebYes, it seems very likely. But this only applies when LC_ALL is set. Other LC_ do not pose a problem, even if set to a non-English locale.
Does setting LC_ALL to C solve it as well?

Quoting: zebFinally user Brix cracked the problem on Steam forums:

unset LC_ALL

It has been confirmed for many users. How come does this interfere with 3D rendering?
Is it connected with locales that have commas between floats (like "3,14" instead of "3.14" )?
Because that might make a whole bunch of different problems, including 3D rendering.

Quoting: Xpanderperformance is pretty good with the beta branch, which sadly isnt made to public yet.
Thanks for sharing, that's great to hear!

I'm still pondering about buying the Steam Controller bundle, and I still wonder...

... does anybody know how long the XCOM 2 & Steam Controller bundle will be sold?
Gas Guzzlers Extreme looks like it is going to come to Linux, porting starts soon

Not yet started but "release shouldn't be too far"?
Now that's optimism!
XCOM 2 released for SteamOS & Linux, port report included

Quoting: QuanTuMI preordered XCOM 2 and just bought the steam controller 40% reduced, you don't need to buy the bundle if you already have XCOM 2!
Your chance, it compensates for the ridiculous shipping costs!
Does anybody know how long this offer will last?
I wanted XCOM 2 and was curious about the Steam Controller, so that would be very nice,
on th eother hand, I'd like to wait for the patch...
Valve rep mentions they will eventually survey Big Picture & SteamOS

Quoting: khalismurTLDR? It is a survey and it is statistics.
+1

Quoting: khalismurThe only question we can't answer is how representative the sample is.
It might e. g. be a bit biased towards Linux, because as a Windows user, I'd probably have opted out ("Why would I?!?" ), as a Linuxer, I'm happy when I get it and opt in ("Hey, let's support Linux!" ).
