open ssl= security.
downgrade it=less security, you SHOULD point it on the article.
that is not an "solution" its a work arround.

Quoting: natis1You should make it so people can hold down to fire instead of clicking for two reasons:

1: It stops people from cheating by using autoclicker or Steam controller rapid fire.

2: It prevents RSI.

Seriously, my hand is really hurting right now.

or maybe put an limited ammo with respawn ammo points

Shadow Warrior 2, no doubt.

no thanks, i will not spent more in hardware than i do in software.
specially considering they might give us an subpar performance, and nvidia is evil enough.

Quoting: ajgpIt would be nice to see the same benchmarks for a system with a less powerful CPU. No offence to Liam here the benchmarks are nice to see but his CPU is a beefy one and thus was probably less affected by the CPU bound issue when using OpenGL than someone using an i5 say, I think that could show even better gains as the benefit will release the GPU more from bottlenecks.

so you can donate am weak cpu to liam, so he can test it...

Quoting: dubigrasuHm, the old OpenGL version is still faster than the new one, and in some places faster than Vulkan.

you can drive at 50Mp/h (80hm/h) to go faster.
/joke

Quoting: GuestAs with Rise of the Tomb Raider on DX12, the difference is not going to be as noticeable on brute-force CPUs or GPUs as it is with older, lower-performing multi-cores.

we dont have rise of tombraider, we have tombraider 2013.

Quoting: liamdaweIt's hard to hit Windows levels with games that were never designed with Linux or anything but DirectX in mind.

i know this, but the reasons dont matter, what matter is the facts.
linux is better, that is a fact, but the games run worse on it because porting without an major shift in the code (like rewrite from scratch in gl) will cost performance.
the end user will not care the reason the game run slow, if he can play the game on windows and cant on linux he will blame the system, or even if he understand, he will not use it.

gamecube was more powerfull than ps2, that didn't matter because ps2 got all the 3rd party games.
its very unlikely some one will give up on windows for linux or even dualboot, if they have 0 reasons to do it.

Quoting: liamdaweAny work they do on their Vulkan rendering will get it ready for future ports I'm sure.

i understand what you mean, you mean those parsers that translate Dx into Vulkan (like indirectX that translate Dx to GL, or rewriters...)
i dont know how feral do their job, maybe they can comment on it.
i hope you're right.

i guess they use some kind of auto translation tool, then futher improve it by tweeking the code by hand, starting by profiling it to see what functions take more time to complete or run more often...

its great that they have made this improvment so the game is playable for computers that werent...
but deus ex is the game who need serious improvments, i was watching linux game cast and even with an nvidia980 they didnt get an good frame rate if my memory dont fail me...

this improvment is not enough to make the performance better than windows, so no one will install linux just to play an game that he/she cant play on windows due to weak hardware.

and feral could have spent this time porting other games, sure, it cost more, but they will not make many extra sales from improving the performance on this one, porting others they will...

"One thing I am really sad about is a lack Steam leaderboards. Seeing who got the quickest time or who earned the most cash during a race would be very nice to have. Seems like a big oversight not to have that in a game like this."
put an leaderboard is easy, preventing cheaters (hackers, script kids) from geting into it, is harder.

they promissed to open source it, they did it?
