Metro 2033 Redux & Metro Last Light Redux Launch On Linux, Sorta (UPDATED)

Quoting: pete910
Quoting: HonorEDnlKThere are two user.cfg files, one is located in the game folder and the other one is where your saved games are, try editing your resolution on that one and it should work, there are other interesting configurations like tessellation but I haven't tried if it works yet. It seems that the game also runs at your native resolution so try changing your desktop's resolution before running the game.

I was getting smooth gameplay but I've reached open areas where the drop is noticeable, I'll have to lower my settings but I think that the Linux port still needs to be optimized.
Did both at the same time to make sure, Still no good. I know perf is crap on AMD compared to windows but I get the feeling this game just don't like AMD GPU's . Well in *nix anyway
What's the full spec of your hardware (cpu, ram, not only gpu) and which OS?

I played Final Fatasy 1 (NES) to 4 (SNES) and then lost interest... The series felt like going in any directions and yet none... But it might just be me who didn't understand the concept, at the time...

I found a really interesting thread about SSAA:

https://steamcommunity.com/app/286690/discussions/0/34096318683314583/?l=english [External Link]

Personally, my GTX-750-ti can't handle 2x SSAA, so I turn it off and play at medium settings with PhysX enabled. Even with this setup that some would call unacceptable, the game looks awesome. I can still see the upgrades vs MLL original and the game runs smoother.

The comments are from Windows users too so SSAA might not be for everybody unless you have a beefed up pc. The kind that I don't have...

I'd like to see screenshots of Metro 2033 Linux vs Windows versions just to see if there's an actual difference in looks and performances.

Just bought it. Still no available client.

Edit:

I've been able to play it at around 9pm (North America, eastern time). Graphics looks awesome and performance are good at medium (GTX 750 ti). Advanced Physx effects makes the performance drop too much but even without that the games looks great.

Another thing I witnessed, the transitions, in general, are not has fluid has Metro Last Light original.

Already both it during Black Friday sales... On a windows system... Yeah I did that monstrous error! I'm ashamed.

I've been able to download and install it on my Linux system but the beta code did not work so I could not launch it.

Must have been counted for a Windows sale...

Storm United Massive Online FPS Gearing Up For Early Access

What I find encouraging is the fact that developers are porting their games directly to Linux. Not going through a MAC version first, then Linux.

It's not an absolute but it's happening more and more often.

It feels like Linux is starting to get really attractive for developers.

Metro: Last Light Redux Showing Signs Of Getting The Linux Version Out

Great news!
Let's see what OpenGl-4 has to offer! :)

I did find out, about a week ago that both SteamDB linux folders had data in them. 8 and 7gb but nothing about a Tux icon.

Because I didn't own the game, I couldn't try it out because I didn't want to take the chance of giving up my sale to Windows... Oh well...
