Quoting: Keyrock

Quoting: Mountain ManNot a big fan of JRPGs (as Bioware once said, "Just because you put a 'J' in front if it doesn't make it an RPG." ), but more love for Linux is always a good thing.

In fairness, the Disgaea series games are better RPGs than anything BioWare has made in the past 6 years. :P

You nailed it. Just because you put maple syrup on it doesn't make Bioware's RPGs... oh wait...

The release date will be History. You know, a Tactical JRPG on Linux. Come on, that's a great victory.

I am more than pleased to see that their words are not empty, and they are already delivering at a stage in development when some others just announce that finally, their titles might not be day-1.
I am really looking forward to this, but looking at videos and considering who's behind it, I'm pretty confident we won't be disappointed.

Because you talked about it, I'd like to state that if a Sonic game is to ever come to Linux, it'll be an insta-buy, as it's the very first Sonic game on Megadrive which got me into gaming when I was merely 7.

Quoting: Mountain ManSpeaking of Cities: Skylines, I wonder when they're going to get the Linux performance issues sorted out?

Performance issues are related to Unity engine. While it's getting better, progress is slow. I don't think it's Colossal Order's fault.

It looks really good. The HUD reminds me of Metroid Prime, and graphics, while not technically impressive, are beautiful. I hope to hear more from the devs pretty soon.

Quoting: omer666On my rig, the game doesn't steal focus on startup, and it still doesn't connect to Relic servers no matter what. I think the second issue is Relic/Sega-related, but the first one is new.

I don't know if it's a similar problem with the certs that I had on borderlands 2 but for archlinux doing a ln -s /etc/ssl /usr/lib/ssl fixed the problem with the game with SHIFT servers , maybe something similar in your case.

The path is maybe different but I think it could help you.

That's quite strange as I can connect to Shift without any problem, including on Arch (which used to be installed on my computer until I switched to Fedora). But I'll look into this, thanks a lot.

Quoting: edddeduckferalThe first issue is likely caused by a Window manager we don't support that is doing something we don't expect. The second issues most likely caused by your usage of a unsupported distro that deals with security certs in a different way.

I'd contact Feral support via email with some details of both issues and we can have a look however given the issues appear to be caused by unsupported distro usage we can't promise anything. That said we have worked around bugs in unsupported distro issues before so it's likely we will fix them as long as we get a a 100% test case.

In fact the windowing bug mentioned in the latest update was only reported on unsupported distros and we fixed it :)

In fact I already contacted Feral support about the second issue several times and they couldn't find any solution. I know only Ubuntu and SteamOS are supported, however even when I disable SElinux completely, it still doesn't work. Maybe it's a Steam Runtime problem, I'll look into this when I have the time.

Should I contact support for the windowing bug anyway?

I am not complaining, I'm pretty much enjoying the game as it is. Thanks for supporting Linux!

The worst thing about this piece of news, is that I immediately forgot what it was all about as soon as I had finished reading it. I suspect it's about some game or something...
