Nvidia release Linux beta driver with Vulkan
16 Feb 2016 at 8:23 pm UTC

I was under the impression that initially the vulkan driver from AMD was going to be under the Catalyst(fglrx) driver.

AMDGPU don't support below the 300 series yet that I know of. :(

It’s easily going to surpass the previous title for played time.
Currant most played title?

Personally have some silly hours on boarderlands 2 :D

Croteam confirm The Talos Principle will be their first Vulkan title

Interesting times ahead for sure!

I just hope it's not a jam in type port as vulkan will supposedly require devs to be a lot more through with it been a low level api .

Also hope they've tested AMD gpu's too :whistle:

Here's a thought, maybe they was worried that feral may do a good job thus make the window/team look bad and linux/steamos look good :D

You'll can buy it on the Feral store, then play it under windows :p
Why buy it on Feral store, to reward their bad decisions? They should feel the sting of their incompetence.
Or maybe you should buy an Nvidia card to punish AMD? Feral doesn't write AMD's drivers, so there's no point punishing Feral for something that is out of their control.
Yea, because NV's oss drivers/contributions are sooooo superior :whistle:

To be expected. the windows release was bad beyond words.

Jason Ekstrand from Intel speaks about Vulkan at FOSDEM 2016

It's all ready a problem, Look at DX12. it's already been fragmented. for some reason they have 3 levels of dx12 support. Seriously ! its been released less than a year! You just had Tom clancy's the division released with dx12.1 support. Guess what , 12.1 don't include the asyc-shaders bit , shocker... Who's it sponsored by! Odd that considering it's the "Asynchronous" side where the perf comes from and what both sides have been touting as that is what allows the consoles with weak gpu's to perform so well.

It's this type of thing which is worrying me regards Vulkan. Is it going to end up been tailored for 1 gpu manufacture ?

Time will tell I guess
