Counter-Strike: Global Offensive adjusts full screen modes for Linux to help with performance

I prefer the 300 FPS of CS:S to the 100 FPS of CS:GO or whatever, lately I can't game on less than 120hz on a FPS, the lag became noticeable once I tasted the divinity of 120 hz.
CS:GO never worked fantastic for me, the mouse on the browser window would disappear after a while, the Server Search screen would take longer than CS:S to query servers for tags. Also I haven't settled on a surf server with surf,rpg,dm mods.
It annoys me that they took sprays out the game entirely, I would have accepted a limited custom spray like halo does for avatars, I wish someone would make a workshop mod bringing back support.
The weapon sprays bug me too, the AWP blurs and has random jitter movements - if I wanted to play Call of Duty or have a realistic experience I would go play airsoft or paintball. Video games are not and should not simulate real war beyond the basic "givens" like "This is a grenade Launcher". "This is a AK-47", etc...
I'm amazed CSGO is so popular because so far I find myself hating the mechanics and stuff here and there so much.
I would be interested in seeing them do a Vulkan version, but then the performance boost might not be so much since there are fewer objects to draw compared to RTS Ashes of the Singularity and DOTA with all the environment objects on the screen at once.

That was actually really immersive, most games don't immerse me - I sort of feel a Star Craft 1 to the graphics which I adore.

This is great, all these new titles are making it possible to part with my N64 games and emulated versions on SteamOS.

The more I can depreciate the better, maybe someday Square will release all their Final Fantasy titles on SteamOS. I tend to be developing Linux Gaming Collectoritis.

GLFW 3.2, a multi-platform API for developers released with Vulkan support

If I recall correctly GLFW was more modular than SDL too whereas SDL was more procedural. It's been a long time, I can't remember why I didn't choose GLFW then.
Obviously now, Vulkan support is a excellent reason to choose it IMO now to spin up some prototypes.

I used to have horendous lag and major wait times converting content to new formats - maybe now that I got a new CPU it wont be so bad but I'm not sure if I can play it on my Skylake as I moved my GTX 970 into my Steam Machine.
Hmm... I hope its good.

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.
