This game was really fun and was a perfect re-imagination of the original classic.
Really glad they decided to port it, I remember awhile back they said you would not.

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

No, It doesn't have all the settings Windows has. No tessellation too which has me really upset... They said it would be exact to the Windows version.
In fact I see some parallax mapping of some sort in many textures... and the r_dx11_tess parameter is set to 1 by default. Could we have some reliable screenshot comparison? I've been looking for some on the web but didn't find anything apart from that:

There is no volumetric lighting either, It's not the same as Windows. I'm pretty sure the first port had some tessellation stuff hidden in a file somewhere too, but it did nothing. I'm just not buying their games anymore until I see videos and pictures of it compared. OpenGL is totally capable of doing everything the Windows version can. If you don't have the resources too port it properly that's understandable, but don't sell a game, then release a "Redux" version of that same game, and still not have it equally as good as the Windows version when they said it would be.

Interstellar Marines FPS Releases A Huge Update, Now Includes Co-op Play

Quoting: HadBabitsI was considering picking this up on sale, but after seeing some of the single player I think I'll sit tight; the AI certainly needs some work. How's the multiplayer?
I dig it, but I'd wait for more weapons and the AI to be enhanced since it is beta...
