Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: pete910Can someone explain why cross platform seems to cause problems? Is it engine specific ?
Their reasoning was linked to in the article already:
Note: Sadly, like Company of Heroes 2 these games do not support cross-platform multiplayer with Windows. Important to note, as this may be a deal breaker for some of you. You can see their explanation [External Link] of why this is the case for CoH2, which likely applies here too.
Ah, missed the link :O

Cheers for both replies.

Quoting: liamdaweI've added in the UTC time for people to not get confused.

Feral are British, they use British time, but I agree it would have been simpler to put it in UTC time.
Not realy, it's automatic to use your own local time, Someone asks me the time I tell them our time, Not UTC time :P

There is also html5 player in beta on twitch.
Twitch auto switched to the html5 player for me a while ago as I don't have flash installed.

Quoting: m2mg2Definately not a firewall issue. I tried with flushed iptables rules. There is also an audio bug. I have to do killall pulseaudio before starting the game otherwise I get no audio and the game freezes shortly after launching until I kill -9 it.

Hopefully they get the first round of patches out pretty quick.
if you find any solution please share with us. Thank you very much
Looks like somebody's found a workaround [External Link] (haven't had a chance to try it yet myself).

The problem is that on Fedora et al. /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt is called /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt. The work around is simply creating a symlink:

sudo ln -s /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
Been having the same problem, Being trying to see if it was a cert fault, Guess so. Will try on Mageia to see if this fixes the issue

Edit:

Yep fixed it here too

Have to say it does run well with mesa, 100 + @ 1440p all high :D

Like others have reported there is a delay when entering the menu/options, not sure whats causing that. no stuttering that I noticed.

The open source Vulkan driver for AMD can now run Dota 2

Good news, The freesync stiff is in the DAL code which is likely kernel 4.9 lejimster.

Their work on the AMDGPU driver has been quite rapid given their work load. Been using it now on my 290x for a month or so without issue. Hell, mesa 12 + AMDGPU driver runs ARMA3 rather well.
