why are they making a linux port?

i am not complaining, but i dont get it. RUST has over 40.000 players and they drop linux support

My guess is that they're not doing it just for this game, they said "core engine", that could be an indication it might come useful for other games.

I'm very pleased to see they're still going for Linux, and with Vulkan it will be much easier to produce cross platform titles, if I'm not mistaken even the Switch uses Vulkan, that's 3 birds with 1 stone.

Quoting: GuestWeird, GOG showed a blue dot indicating it was updated, but it was the same 1.0.2 version. Maybe it's still processing.

Today they added the macOS version. That only leaves Linux to be updated and won't be here until next week.

I'm hoping to see some of the FAudio features in Wine next year.

This is a clear sign that Mac and Linux were always an afterthought. This will go into my book of never buy this game, regardless of price.

QuoteDirect IP multiplayer, Steam not required

That is basically begging for a GOG release. I still have my physical CD's of Wipeout 1 and 2097.

Quoting: keanHmm, New NV and Wine :) I will have to test if Rust became playable or not :)

Now let's sprinkle over some DXVK seasoning and we got an amazing weekend ahead of us :D

Quoting: no_information_hereNow that VP have refined their skills, it would be great if CDPR might give them Witcher 3. I hope CDPR weren't put off by the (initial) negative reaction after Witcher 2.

Unless VP starts using Vulkan, I think TW3 will end up running better with DXVK.

I remember this game way back when Ubuntu was becoming a bit popular on the desktop, great times. I'm surprised (but happy) it's still being worked on all these years.

Windows Unity games can be converted in a similar way if matched with Linux exe that is same or close enough version, it may not work for all games though.
