I ended up refunding this game, as the performance was pretty bad.

Would be great to see these sort of games support bots. I know it's alot of extra work, but it helps keep it alive.

Quoting: edddeduckferal

Quoting: d10sfanGetting pretty low performance on this port. With a GTX 680, even with setting everything to low, it's staying in the 30 fps range and below. Not very impressed with this port, and it seems the numbers should be higher on a 970 as well.

I understand the thinking of lower fps dosen't matter on a rts

Please make sure you reboot between changing settings as the engine will not fully reset until you do so. If you have an issue with performance please contact our support with your settings and details and we will investigate.

Thanks for the response. I've sent an email.

I understand the thinking of lower fps dosen't matter on a rts, but it is noticeable when it drops really low. I also wonder if Virtual Programming would have gotten the same free pass in regards to this that Feral seems to

I believe Steam needs to have some sort of restrictions for the Linux icon and uploading. Personally I feel that to have a Linux icon on the store, you need to prove you've actually launched it and tested it on Linux prior to uploading. Many of these games seem like the devs never actually launch their games on Linux (for example Rust, Garry's Mod, this one, some Unity games, etc), and this could help against that. Maybe if there needs to be allowed for them to upload the depots, to require a large banner on the store page saying that the build is untested, so we can see the difference between developers.

Part of the SteamOS setup seems to be on Valve's part to try and sway console players. One of the things consoles give you, at least in theory, is the idea that patches have been tested at least some before releasing. There really isn't something like that on Steam and while Valve is trying to get away from curating the store themselves, some sort of accountability in terms of actually trying the game on Linux and making sure the basic features work before selling it as a supported Linux game would be very helpful. Refunds help this, but it'd be nice to have something upfront, than just being reactionary.
