Quoting: GuestI have my doubts that this will not come to the Linux Steam client since broadcasting is still not implemented in the Linux steam client. Yeah I know there's in home streaming and stuff already working but you'll hear all sounds of the client who streams or am I missing something? And if I think of playing a local co-op game with a friend I most likely are voice chatting with them and I think they won't like to hear themselves?

Since people have concerns, I've emailed Valve to confirm if it's been tested working on Linux.

Quoting: Patola@Liam why did you ignore my question? Since you're the most direct line with these developers, have you even asked them about their regional pricing changes? This is quite related to this news topic, their monetization policy. I believe there are many gamingonlinux readers which are affected by this decision, not everyone is fortunate enough to live in developed countries.

Psyonix finally replied today about my regional pricing query, they said this:

Hey Liam,

Thank you for being a Rocket League fan!

I appreciate that you have taken the time to bring the game pricing to attention. Though we currently don't have information to share, rest assured that we have taken your report into account.

Keep having fun in the field!

That was all, they're not talking about it.

Update: I've managed to get the performance to be a good 10-15FPS better and generally smoother overall by forcing the "Performance" CPU governor for my CPU model. It's much better, but still does need some improvements from the game :)

Honestly, I forget just how bad the default is on my CPU model. Will update the article to reflect this.

Quoting: MasterSleortWell for me the game is working well. Playing at "Fantastic" (highest) setting at 4k around 40-50 fps with occasional dips to low 30s fps. However, I am also using Vega 64 and padoka stable drivers
For what I have played, I think the game is neat and actually lives up to my hopes. Only thing I miss are real voices. That would probably add a bit more depth to the characters.

Yeah I don't think the graphics truly affect the performance much until you set it to the lowest to remove shadows and such. Some of the reports I've seen even on Windows (the obviously more optimised platform), it seems to struggle for others too. I've also seen a report of graphical issues on AMD...

Edit: Added some more fun bits to the article. Still exploring, may update further.

Quoting: TermyLets hope they roll it out for Linux, too and not leave us out like with streaming ^^

Considering it uses streaming, that might be a downside for GNU/Linux users then. I don't know - I don't use streaming via Steam at all, and so no idea what kind of shape it's in.

Given the Steam client upgrades lately and how they're trying to polish up GPU acceleration, it would be quite amazing to see this feature unavailable for Linux.

Plus I am able to share my Steam (stream) to my Android box on my TV, so I don't see why this would not work.

Yeah considering how the streaming already works on Linux, I can't see this not working on Linux. The broadcasting feature is a different thing they don't seem to be doing anything with, which is why I assume they've not bothered to add Linux to it.

Quoting: y_the_alienAny news about Destiny 2?

You'll be waiting a long time on that working in Steam Play. Currently doesn't work at all.

No, thanks.

You don't win over publishers by not buying games.
