Anyone else has strange sound issues? On my Solus installation sounds are kind of muted and often don't play as if there was a problem with limited simultaneous samples or something like that. Just me being stupid :(

Also I really dislike that the default parkour button is "q" instead "left-shift".

I think that screenshot (and the video on the Steam page) is still from the old version. On their forums they have some newer screenshots. I guess it will not look totally different (as playermodels for example are unchanged), but it does seem to look better than in that screenshot now.

Anyone able to guess if the mobile version will be strong enough for VR with Valve Index? I am not really into AMD's GPUs, so a bit hard to guess for me.

It's nice that they improve the graphics, but it would be great if they could also innovate on gameplay or at least make modding a bit more easy (last time I checked you basically had to fork the engine for more extensive gameplay modifications).

Is Valve's version of time-warp now available for Linux or is it still Windows and Nvidia only?

Ugh, apparently not:

A pity really, as that would probably lessen the impact of using Proton for most games.

Anyone got an idea how to turn on old school keyboard mode or at least an approximation of it with a gamepad?

It has controller support and the menu says auto-aim enabled, but playing with a regular gamepad having to mangle a mouse like look with the right thumbstick is no fun at all.
