Sounds like Killing Floor 2 won't come to Linux any time soon

Quoting: DrMcCoy
Quoting: lucifertdarkWell I just saved myself £20 & removed it from my wishlist.
If you don't buy it within the next 4 days, you're only saving $12, because it's in the current Humble Monthly Bundle ;)
I forgot about that. :D

The developers of 'Darkwood' have put up a free torrent if you can't afford to buy it
27 Aug 2017 at 2:16 pm UTC

If this had been released back when I was a 100% Windows user I'd have jumped on the torrent & never even thought about buying the game afterwards, since adopting Linux as my main OS I'd much rather pay for the game upfront than download a torrent with the developer hoping that some time in the future I might think about buying it.

Is this a Linux thing or is it me getting old? I don't know.

I salute the developer for what they did, but I will buy the game as soon as I can to support them in the best way I can.

I have every Tropico game released so far, along with every DLC & I have yet to play a single one of them, I will be buying Tropico 6 so it'll get added to the list of games I really need get on with playing.

I'm using the Nvidia 384.69 drivers with my GTX 770 & there's no drop in performance since the patch even though I'm getting the message in the launcher, I just tested it with an Empire army against the Greenskins & got sent home on my shield, proof that I'm rubbish at the game but at least it's running just fine with my setup. :D

Quoting: lucifertdarkAccording to the launcher my machine is no longer up to the task after this latest patch.
It's likely you're using Nvidia drivers which have a bug needing you to downgrade the drivers to an older stable branch that don't experience the performance issue. 381.22 and newer has a performance issue that the older drivers don't experience.
Thanks for the info Eddd, so the 384.59 drivers are broken? neat! lol, here we go with the downgrade upgrade roundabout again. :D The 378 drivers are ok to use?

We each have the ultimate ignore function at our disposal already, it's called the power button, if I don't like something I just switch off my machine, walk away & do something else.

Liam should look into adding a Bozo Filter while he's at it.
