So from the community forum it seems like this game is 4 player local co-op? If so that's fantastic I'm collecting 4 player local games to play with friends local.

Gaming, Friends and Linux are all the things I am combined.

Quoting: EikeOf course, that's a biased top ten. League of Legends e. g. would be in there if it would be on Steam. But it's still great.

Works fine for me using Steam Overlay and WINE.

Here you go. You may need to modify this before adding it to your Steam Library if you're not using Arch.

Obviously it's not a native fix, but if your CPU isn't the bottleneck it runs ARAM just fine and other modes at least on Skylake for sure.

Skimming the video this reminds me of Race the Sun a little.

Someone tell the Game Development community that I want more 4 player games on my Steam Machine. Lately I've been taking to 4 controllers on my Steam Machine and 50".

Looks like a fascinating find, sort of NeonXSZish, Tronish, GTA 2 ish, etc...

I guess I might as well play this on Windows and see if it's worth playing or buying later.

What a shame it's taken so long, like a earlier posted said well this is a bit of "glass half empty" and "glass half full" situation.

While pleased to have something new to potentially play the major delay killed my boner for this game.

I guess I'll just have to play it or wait and see if my boner can get back to 100% over rocket league.

Quoting: LinasThis is great news. Linux on the desktop will not make a breakthrough in the office, it will do it as a multimedia platform.

I think you meant to write that Linux on the desktop will not make a breakthrough in the professional photography industry, but it already has in gaming, tv, corporate offices, servers, and consumer phones.

I think I converted at least 8 people to Arch already, 4 of which are gamers.

Once Arch is setup it runs great for them and I can tech support via NX No Machine and SSH if necessary.

I've heard at least 3 of those people spontaneously comment on how Windows 7 "feels weird", "lags", etc...

For the everyday person Linux is mostly ready with someone in the know for those occasional technical times.

Like @sarmad said I already own way more Linux games than I play, I agree this is a indication of a healthy marketsphere.

A lot of X folk are becoming impatient and don't have thick skin after these last few years have yielded some really awesome releases.

Quoting: CorbenBut it feels a bit like the drive of games on Linux has worn a bit off. The "news" about Linux games being delayed, canceled or don't get updates seem to increase. Even where we expected to get a Linux version, because either it would be very easy to port (Engine supports natively Linux or is OpenGL) or the previous games of that series got Linux versions, don't get any port. Or is that just my impression?

Well of course there are more news articles about technical setbacks, or cancels, there are in fact more news articles about new games in Linux all together.

I mean we have 2,000 games and are getting some big titles walking in the door.

Take to the Steam Forums and make a rukkas reminding people that Linux Gaming is real and never going away. We've had huge success already and have a bright future. We won't get 100% onboard but we have all major engines onboard as far as I know.

Stay resolute, and to ease the time dual boot or have a backup console IMO for now.

The reason games aren't 64 bit is because it doesn't really provide any advantage whatsoever, maybe on Linux if they were using linux libraries it wouldn't require the 32-bit but that's not the case as they ship their own libraries to my understanding.

I mean the only advantage I can think of is address space being increased, but then if your games is using 8GB ram I would start the dafuq face imo.
