I had no idea Hollow Knight is this good until last week. Haven't been much outside since...

I didn't buy F1 2015 because of its price and the mixed reviews. Also I read somewhere that F1 2015 doesn't have a career mode? For me a racing game needs some sort of reward system to keep me going as I find pure racing sims a bit boring :P. If F1 2017 makes it to Linux I would like to buy it at some point, but €54,99 is a bit too steep for me at the moment so I would have to wait for a sale of some sort.

Quoting: GuestFrom: http://blog.dota2.com/2017/04/matchmaking-update/ [External Link]
"There will be a two-week grace period from today during which players have time to register a number, but starting on May 4th, accounts without a registered number will no longer be eligible for Ranked play. "

Damn, i haven't seen that article. Then I agree with you. It is a mistake to force this upon players. Now that I think of it, they will probably do the same with counter strike soon if this becomes a 'success'.

Quoting: GuestSo Dota 2 is gonna become a game with indirect subscription. I will explain. To have access to all of the game content (ranked in this game) you need to give them a valid phone number. To keep that phone number you need to pay. That payment is indirect subscription.

You can still play ranked, although not in a pool of players who did activate with a phone number. Valve are giving you the choice to use this feature, you are free to play ranked without an account associated with a phone number, although not against people who do have. To clarify: if you have any friends who play dota who did enter their numbers, you can still play ranked with them, just not in the separate player pool. (it's the same as cs go prime, basically)

Quoting: GuestBTW it looks like it’s not only a framerate problem, but that the clock in the game is running more or less slowly. It’s easy to see looking at the dust movements in the air.

Yeah I got this problem too, the fix for me was really easy though. You need to launch the game and play with Ethernet off. Apparently there is some WBplay issue going which is causing the slow motion-like effect. Funny thing is that I noticed the fps doesn't stutter on my steam overlay when the game runs slower.

Quoting: bakgwailoI wish they would focus a little more on performance (especially in Linux). Don't newer engine versions bring a lot to the table for OpenGL performance ?

Cities basically uses the newest version of unity. I find that I get the same FPS in large cities, but better simulation performance. Of course I would like to see improvements, but the game is just as playable on Linux as on Windows, for me at least.

Quoting: johnhannibalsmithThough I've lurked this site since converting to Linux several months ago, I've only just now registered in order to comment on the first subject I might have something worth sharing.

Good luck if you try it. I'm kind of an old guy by the standards of this sort of wacky sandbox shooter type of game, but it is so unlike any sort of game that I grew up playing that as bad as I am at it, I just find it all kind of fascinating and fun to play. And headache inducing, at times.

This comment put a smile on my face!

Quoting: cxphergmailcomMay be an OSX title only. They didn't specifically say it's GNU/Linux related.

Would make me the saddest penguin ever :'( .

(let it be bioshock, let it be bioshock)
