I have found for the most part, that the RL community are pretty great.

Out of all the games I've had, maybe three people in total have been dicks. Everyone else has been rather nice, feels very different to games like Dota 2.

I spoke to Feral, they said it should support them buying it here. So you shouldn't worry too much.

Removed that bit, there's a bit directly below it about GPU (was there anyway).

Quoting: ElectricPrism@Liam - Maybe reach out to someone to clarify the situation?

This sounds like that other situation with GOG where the dude who said nay was completely clueless as to the situation.

No, this comes direct from Aspyr Media as linked to in the article. They have also commented on reddit [External Link] now too:

We are still investigating the technical feasibility of it. I say that because we will NOT bring a substandard version to Linux, no matter how much we want to see that happen.

To address the troll post head-on. The game does still have some performance issues, but I enjoy a great many games that have performance related issues.

I have put 40+ hours into Company of Heroes 2 (anyone can see on my Steam profile), I also play weekly against Matt from Feral and others from the wider community often. Would I do that if I didn't love the game? No I damn well wouldn't, plenty better things to do with my time than play a game I didn't like. I get paid by my supporters on Patreon, not by any company to "shill" for them. Anyone who thinks otherwise just doesn't know me well at all. If you think I am truly a Feral shill, why would I have said Tomb Raider performance was "Horrific" at one point in a livestream in front of many people (that was before the TR performance patch mind you).

I'm guessing the troll missed the article in January where I wrote about the performance patch they released that actually improved the performance of CoH2? It's all well and good quoting me, but try more recent quotes? Here's the more recent official quote from me directly about COH2 performance:

As you can see, the performance is much better now for me, so I’m actually quite a bit happier.

As for this:

You have no excuse not to own Company of Heroes 2 now

That was meant in regards to the price considering it's dirt cheap, in a bundle and what the entire article was about, I thought that was kind of obvious how I meant it.

This is great news! That's an RTS legend coming on our OS and only a month after the Windows release. Oh and it's the first game from GSC Gameworld to come our way.

I think Cossacks is a series a lot of Linux gamers missed out on, which is likely one of the reasons it's getting such little traction here.

Personally, I'm extremely excited. We NEED more good RTS games like this!
