Feral Interactive have released a new teaser for a Linux & Mac port to come
9 Apr 2017 at 10:37 am UTC

Quoting: kellerkindtWhy cant it be Witcher 3 :'(

Well, Rise of the Tomb Raider is also okay-ish ^_^

EDIT: Anyone else noticed that there is only one Linux title on their radar and only 3 in total? Everything alright @feral?
The silence before the storm.

I'm sure they got more plans, games will apper on the radar when they are getting ready for release.
Im assuming its not to cleaver to announce a port right after you get the licens for it, just look at the steam forums on games that are promesing a linux port / mac port :P.

Mad Max meets Vulkan in a new fully public beta for Linux, benchmarks and OpenGL vs Vulkan comparisons
1 Apr 2017 at 11:37 am UTC

Quoting: Leopard
Quoting: ZeloxIm excited to see start citizen now. Cause I think we really can see vulkan vs dx12 there.
If vulkan performe better, I can see that as a possble reason for windows users to ditch windows and go to linux.
And maybe dev teams can see the value better in using vulkan. But I got no doubt they are already mutch better informed then atleast me :P.
You can't see Dx12 vs Vulkan at Star Citizen because they're going full with Vulkan and eventually drop their Dx11 support since Windows 7,8,10 and Linux have support for Vulkan.
aaaah, didnt know that they completly ditched dx12. Thanks!

This is awesome. Would be cool to see Mad max on windows vs Linux.
But does the windows version use dx12?
Would probably not be to fair to compair and old API with a new one.

Star Citizen to use Vulkan instead of DirectX 12 and drop DirectX 11 eventually
20 Mar 2017 at 12:06 am UTC

Quoting: CorbenI'm not sure, as on Windows they're not using OpenGL as on macOS, but DX11.
But even though their Cobra engine can render in OpenGL, they're not support Linux.

Probably it's just a matter of time, when Elite: Dangerous will be playable in Linux through wine. Either they switch on Windows to Vulkan, or wine supports DX11 good enough to play. Probably the later will happen ;)
Mac uses an older opengl version, this is the reason they dont have the horizon expansion.
They also dont support vulkan like Linux do. And there PC's arent really built for gaming, just hade to add that last thing ;).

If we are going to see a Linux port, it will be the next plattform frontier will aim for.

PS4 port is out very soon, and I dont think Andriod, iOS or Nintendo is something frontier are aiming for.

So hoppfully Linux is something they want to do. Plz!! :'(
My life will be complete then frontier!!!
Im not begging Im demanding a port!!! :D

i also believe we should honor them for doing so we dont want another ubisoft or more broken games on steam
