Quoting: PicoboomIf they don't get it out day one, I'll forgive 'em. Deep Silver has more than enough Linux Good Karma points to balance it out.

I'd call it Loyalty Points. Linux Loyalty Points, LLP.

Sounds like an RPG stat and the moment it's maxed out you get a free pet penguin.

Could we consider a publisher who releases a lot of Linux games but never on day one is chaotic good?

At the time I was a Mac user, they released several UbiSoft games on the Mac. Why not on Linux?

I think they are trying to avoid all the fuss around the Metro Redux pre-orders, as the Steam pre-order displayed a Tux icon despite developers clearly stating the Linux version would arrive later on.

Many users complained that the game was not released day one because of this, and perhaps they want to avoid this kind of reactions in case the port isn't ready.

Yet if it is in development, there are some chances that it will be ready around May 20th. But the "release dates for Linux" does really sound wrong to me.

Dear Gods of Linux gaming,

I would like the following games in my Steam Library:

- Deus Ex, or Deus Ex: Human Revolution, or Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. A Wine port of Deus Ex is nothing too far reaching if bundled with a recent GL renderer, and HR was already ported to Mac by our dear Feral fellows; however the next installment is more likely to come if any of them is to be ported.
- System Shock Enhanced Edition
- System Shock 3
- Street Fighter V
- The Witcher 3

That's for being realistic.

If I was NOT being realistic, that's what I would ask for:

- King of Fighters XIV
- Half Life 3 ( :P )
- 0 A.D. 1.0
- Unreal Tournament 4 (I don't think it's coming this year but I really would like it to)

OK you asked for one game, but among all those I mentioned, I'm sure only one or two have chances to get a port this year.

Come on Gods of Linux gaming, shalt you bring us joy and grace (huhuhu)

P.S:

Quoting: ArehandoroDoes it have local Co-Op or local Multiplayer? I've recently put my rig in the living room and I need a hell of a game -In terms of good graphics as they don't like pixel art or old games- to play with my mates.

Serious Sam 3 BFE has split screen (and some great fart jokes).
I agree that we don't have enough split screen games for a system which tries to compete with consoles.

I'd buy this new Insurgency with pleasure when it's out. Good graphics and a story mode should skyrocket this game to "must buy" status.

Quoting: dubigrasuI have some promising results with this new driver, as in Vulkan is already faster:

OpenGL
Average: 81.4 FPS (86.1 w/o extremes)
Extremes: 254.6 max, 30.6 min
Highs: 523 in 3.5 seconds (150.4 FPS)
Lows: 738 in 14.5 seconds (51.0 FPS
30-60 FPS: 14%
+ 60 FPS: 86%
Vulkan
Average: 88.6 FPS (89.3 w/o extremes)
Extremes: 405.7 max, 9.0 min
Highs: 74 in 0.5 seconds (144.2 FPS)
Lows: 64 in 1.5 seconds (42.5 FPS)
+ 60 FPS: 100%

That was the Talos Principle benchmark BTW.

Great results indeed!

Quoting: rkfgMaybe it's not a good idea to play on Steam Beta if you want the best experience. It's called Beta for a reason and I also vaguely remember some troubles with it.

The problem is that back when I got my controller in January, Steam told me to opt in beta to have it fully functional. I had no problems yet, though.

I was a big Descent fan at the time of Descent 3 (didn't have the pleasure to discover it before), this would be an instant buy for me.
