Saints Row IV now available on SteamOS and Linux

Quoting: serjorUbuntu 15.10 x64
Nvidia 650ti 358.??
16gb ram
1920x1080 at medium about 25 fps.

Just played the first mission and honestly, I didn't experienced any issues, just the gamepad feeling it's a little bit... "slow", even with controller sensitivity at max.
That performance still says to me the store specs are set too low if a 650ti at medium only gives 25FPS. If you're enjoying it that's good, but seems quite low.

If you can, please do list your specs, along with your average FPS you can gauge from gameplay. It doesn't seem to have a benchmark mode, so I want to see how it runs for you guys compared to me.

Some games don't like using the right thumbpad as mouse
There is a special mode called Joystick Mouse (or Mouse Joystick, I forget) which was added more recently to get around issues with games that don't like standard Mouse mode alongside other gamepad controls. It works well, considering, but you need to use in-game sensitivity options to tweak it further.
Some games like Shadow of Mordor don't like that mode either, as it still messes things up.

I have to say, performance is disappointing, and I am on an Nvidia 980ti one of the best you can get.

Added some thoughts into the article.

Missing executable, no sign of any eon files from VP, or any Linux files at all. I think there's been an accidental push early.

I will try a port report tonight, will do my best considering it was dropped with no warning.

Some thoughts on the Asus 4K PB287Q 28 inch monitor, with added radiation alarm

I actually switched over to Mint Cinnamon, and it shows how hilariously bad Unity is with hidpi. Cinnamon has scaled basically everything perfectly.

Hmm, i suppose for now that will do until i can get PCSpecialist to get their act together.

Well, I am looking at sending it back due to the siren issue anyway. If I bring the resolution for the desktop down to 2560 or whatever, it should be better. Don't think I will need any scaling then?

Not impressed at how long PCSpecialist have kept me waiting on the email.
