Too bad they aren't as active in the community, wish they were. That would be the missing piece of the triumvirate.

I will be shortly buying this game (as well as any other you may publish) together with Warhammer.
P.S.:
@edddeduckferal: A few question for Team Feral, if I may:
- Given that in the most recent releases you always refer to mesa and not fglrx/amdgpu-pro, do you guys see mesa as AMD's Linux drivers to focus on going forward?
- What are your feelings with the level of responsiveness and the delivery by the mesa devs (as opposed to the level of frustration some other devs have expressed regarding the closed source drivers)?
- Would you guys recommend other game devs to only focus on mesa for AMD on Linux?
@Liam: It may be worth asking/polling GOL readers questions they find interesting so that they can be "shot" at Team Feral. An interview with these awesome guys would be neat!

Quoting: edddeduckferalSummary: AMD is unsupported meaning we don't recommend you purchase it on AMD GPUs, however we have don a lot of work towards support which should happen once all the improvements to Mesa/Kernel are in stable branches.Guys, hats off to you. Your level of commitment to mesa is great. I've seen at least two bug reports filed during the last week by Feral's James Legg (even one with a patch to fix it - https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=e33f31d61f5e9019f8b0bac0378dfb8fd1147421 [External Link] -) which I believe were related to this game. Thank you a lot, Feral!!

Quoting: paasistiTurning the texture quality to "High Performance" did help, but as far as I'm concerned, for a high-action game such as this the freezes I'm getting are still making it unplayable. Need to wait for a fix, but until then I'm going to rocketin' on Windows..You're right. thankfully, it feels playable for me on my system. I hope a solution is found, though.

I got that impression due to three reasons:
1) With max quality textures: (i) there are several long freezes (like 5 seconds long), (ii) usually during the first 30 seconds of the match there are invisible cars(textures probably not loaded yet), (iii) someone joining an ongoing match also results in freezes.
2) Setting texture quality to medium results in less stutter/freeze (probably just like one or two, but shorter).
3) setting lower shader quality with max texture quality in my case results in the same problems.
Are you using max quality textures? Try lowering a notch and see if it works.
I haven't seen many reports in the Steam forum so probably it is (at least partially) related to mesa, not 100% the game's fault.

Quoting: paasistiOh yeah. I can join games okay, but for the first ~30s my game is freezing and stuttering, making it unplayable. It also happens when someone new joins a game I'm in, so it seems to be related to loading assets like shaders and such. All the reports I've seen about it have been with Radeon+Mesa, so it might even be a driver issue, rather than RL.I'm suffering the same issue (AMD FX 8370, 16GB DDR3 @1600, Radeon RX480 8GB, mesa git-ish, Kubuntu 16.04 64bit, linux 4.8-rc5) and it seems it is not shader related but rather related to texture uploading.
