Quoting: Linux tayshadyThe fact that you're posting this news article and not news about big games coming out on Linux is a big tell though.
Oh, come on, this website is frequently posting articles about upcoming and just-released games.
I post news about new games practically every day. It was just a rare Sunday where I took some time away from news (trust me, my inbox is fucking rammed full now).

I am working on our new stats page I shared with Patreon supporters (check my Patreon if you are a supporter!). That is why I am quiet at the moment.

One thing I didn't mention is the new way Windows Store will have games in a walled garden. This is why Steam and other stores will be increasingly important.

Quoting: Tom BI'm not sure why you were seeing problems at 4k, I have no problems at all running it at 4k high settings on a 980ti. (Arch linux, latest kernel/drivers, hex core Xeon X5670 @ 4.2ghz cpu, 32gb ram, inno3d 980ti hybrid).
I actually re-ran a test just now and it was running a lot smoother than before, so unsure what my previous issue was at 4K.

According to Deep Silver the new editions of Dead Island are not coming to Linux

Quoting: m2mg2For those of you who have preloaded it, can you browse local files and see any linux specific files (executables, game related .so files)?
I preloaded it, but couldn't find the files. It did take up the space on my drive though. Only a few days to go, but I'm feeling optimistic thanks to the person who got in touch with Koch media.
Pretty sure pre-loading actually keeps it in some sort of encrypted file, which gets extracted at release.

I also messaged Techland with no reply, so I have reached out to Koch Media myself now as well.

Still doesn't show Linux support on Steam itself, but I was able to pre-load.

Stay strong folks, we are still getting more games than ever. Rocket League is still amazingly popular right now too, so when it arrives it should still be great.
