El Presidente Returns! Tropico 6 announced and Linux will be supported
13 Jun 2017 at 12:23 pm UTC

I have every Tropico game available in my Steam collection & I keep meaning to play Tropico 5 but I keep getting waylaid by other games like Mad Max & Shadow of Mordor. Would I be missing a lot with only the base game of Tropico 5?

Minecraft 1.12 released today with parrots, a whole new advancements system and more

Ubuntu 16.04 libicu55 is installed but the launcher is demanding libicu57, I found that, installed, then had a long list of extra files that need installing, not all at once though, only one at a time after each one is installed it tells me the next in line, it's a pain & I gave up after the fifth file & reverted all my changes. I can live without Minecraft.

My youngest Son runs his own private server & plays it for hours & hours with his Fiance. Damn that last word makes me feel so bloody old. :D

It sounds like Darren Korb is on soundtrack duties again, that alone is reason enough for me to buy the game.

I listen to a lot of audio books so I'm intrigued enough to buy it if it ever gets released.

Total War: Shogun 2 & Fall of the Samurai released for Linux, port review and thoughts

Quoting: edddeduck_feralThat is pretty strange, I would contact Feral support with a support report from the pre game launcher and we can have a look. Most likely it sounds like out of date or incorrect drivers.
All sorted now, switching on Vertical Synchronisation fixed the problem, Thanks to Sam in Support for the help. :D

Quoting: edddeduck_feral
Quoting: lucifertdarkWell this is a first for a Feral release, I got as far as the red Samurai falling flat on his face with a terminal dose of arrows in the back & my entire system froze up leaving me with just a mouse pointer stuck in the middle of the screen.

No crash log to be found anywhere. :(

On it's way right now, I got past the crash on my second attempt by skipping the cinematic as it started, I'd like to be able to watch it at least once though. ;)
