I hope they won't go larian on this one, as I love Carmageddon and was really excited by this project.

Once again, great job Feral! I dared trying the "Ultra" preset and it runs really well on a Core i7 4770S + GTX 666 + 16Gb of RAM. I hope I'll get the same kind of performance with other titles to come...

Quoting: KeyrockI remember this game from way back in the day on the N64. I never really got what the hubbub was about, I thought it was okay, but a lot of people have fond memories of this game so it;s cool those folks will get to play it again on Linux and scratch that nostalgia itch.

I think it comes down to the artistic direction. It had a universe of its own, and was not one those based on aliens/demons/cybersoldiers, games that were the vast majority of genre. Also it was among the first fully polygonal FPS, and the gameplay, for a console title, was quite nice.

So much great news these days, can't wait to play all those incredible titles. The guys at Night Dive are doing really great, and though the Linux versions of System Shock and Turok are not released yet, I just can't hide my eagerness.

Did anyone try playing those games with a gamepad? Mine refuses to work...

Quoting: GuestThere is also the fact that WebGL is an officially supported build target.

Thats actually really good. Would that open up possibilities for games like Quake Live ?

Quake Live uses the complete original Quake 3 engine, just with a Web interface replacing the server browser - which in itself is a great move considering how bad was q3's server browser. It is not a WebGL port and it is totally unrelated to Unity.

Also in fact the game actually has had a Linux port at release, they just decided to discontinue it. As a long-time id fan - I bought the first Quake on launch and I own almost everything they ever released - I felt betrayed.

Quoting: MGOidLets hope that it will not need OpenGL 4.3 as minimal requirement, like the other recent Feral ports, so people using opensourse drivers can play it from day one.

Quite the contrary: let's hope it does. In many ports, there were graphical differences between Windows & Linux versions because they didn't use OpenGL 4.x ...

Let's hope some day Intel & AMD catch up with nVidia.

Quoting: melkemindI don't get why we shouldn't hold developers to high standards just because we're using Linux. That's a like a beautiful desperate woman settling for an old drunk guy who hits her because she's so afraid he'll leave. She deserves better, and so do we. ^_^

I don't think the image is adapted to the situation, unless you consider porting AAA games to Linux with altered performance is like hitting us in the face...
