They requested more details from me today, including asking me to adjust an option Linux doesn't have, so I was keen to point this out to them that Linux is missing graphical options.
I have also pointed out, again, that MB is forced on for Linux, as they asked me to turn it off.
Edit: I showed them a screenshot of the options of what I have, and they literally just replied with:

Thank you for the screenshot. We're working on the performance issues.

Well, one of the incoming patches has added changes to the Linux "depot" on Steam, so it looks like the first patch will do something for Linux.
Hoping my detailed reports them has helped. Come on Techland, don't let us down!

Quoting: Avehicle7887Played this game with my friend on Skype, hella scary especially when you're running out of light and the story is pretty good too.We only know it may come to Steam, no info on GOG, so we won't link it.
@Liam: The game is also available on GOG, you might want to add a link to that for those who prefer a DRM-Free version: http://www.gog.com/game/outlast [External Link] :-)

Quoting: rick01457I suggest holding your face to a pillow too :D, they see you if you can't see them...that's how it works right, RIIIIGHT?!Quoting: OZSeafordI just can't buy that game.But the corner is where they hide. Better to stand in the middle of the room right under the light. Nothing can get you there (tried and tested).
I am a grown man, and I refuse to be reduced to a sniveling heap of frayed nerves cowering in a corner of the room.

Quoting: tuubiFor me the new beta made the game stutter like crazy. If "stuttering" is what you call one second total freezes every couple of seconds. But then I enabled gl threaded optimizations and it all went away. I've only done a few quick tests in the camp area at the very beginning of the game, but seems like it's running quite smoothly now on my i7 and gtx 760, with custom settings somewhere around high @ 1080p if it matters.I hope you reported the stuttering on their github, otherwise they can't fix what they don't know about.
Quoting: throghI hope this patch will also be available through GOG.com. :)I'm sure it will be, as long as there's a stable release.

I wish I did to compare, but sadly I don't have Windows. Hopefully someone else can check.

Indeed @pmk1c, the Dying Light port has put things firmly into perspective for me, wrappers aren't bad by default, and Virtual Programming are now starting to really prove themselves.
Considering how terrible Dying Light is...well now, things are a bit different around here.

I warned people in the last article, and it's doing my head in. Cut the crap with nvidia vs amd talk, use the forum if you wish to do that. I will be removing nonsense amd vs nivida talk without warning.
It is also nothing to do with my specific card, as noted in the article many others also having the same issues.
