Quoting: bekoHinterhalt is the german term for Ambush.

Does it feature any stealth by chance?
Not with the crazy sight and range units have currently.

It's a small indie team and alpha state, as mentioned.

Quoting: omer666I thought they were rather supposed to unveil Navi sometime soon... aren't they?
Navi is planned, but it won't come out until 2019 probably. Too long of a wait for those who were disappointed with bad initial Vega release (too expensive / too power hungry). I.e. it would mean basically another year without proper competition with high end Nvidia. Not a good situation. So I think Vega refresh should be coming in H1 2018.
Well, they have announced a version of Vega made with 7nm made for "machine learning", perhaps using some work towards the refresh?

Edit: Appears I missed a slide, Vega is specifically mentioned as going to 7nm before Vega, but they don't give a date:

This was in the CEO presentation slides, not the Radeon slides...go figure.

Feral has patched Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III for Linux to fix Vulkan on NVIDIA 384

Quoting: VurdaanMatchtmaking is broken on this game, we can't play versus windows players....
It's not broken, that's just how it is. A few ports from Feral (and other developers) have per-platform online play. Sometimes Mac and Linux can play together, but not with Windows.

Quoting: ShmerlI'm more interested in when refresh of desktop Vega GPUs is coming. It's clearly needed to make AMD competitive again.
None of the press slides I was sent even hinted at a refresh of Vega.

Likely this one: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/lonely-mountains-downhill-an-arcade-style-mountain-biking-game-is-on-kickstarter-with-linux-support.10598

The Talos Principle going Fusion, Croteam dropping OpenGL & Serious Sam 4 still coming
5 Jan 2018 at 1:59 pm UTC

Quoting: ageres
Quoting: liamdaweHave you reported them and have Croteam replied?
I have, long time ago, but they haven't replied.
Might be worth going through their official support channel after posting again to see if they reply this time. They get a lot of replies, so it's possible they missed it.
