Great news! And like others would rather wait for a finished product.

"Hey, can you pass me a Kleenex?"
"I would but this is not Kleenex, this is facial tissue."

Alien Isolation patch released, improving AMD CPU performance on Linux
16 Dec 2015 at 11:49 pm UTC Likes: 1

Well an an AMD CPU user... Not had a chance to actually play but it launches a whole lot faster with no stuttering. Before the update could drop to 1fps as it ran the launcher video. Seems to be making better use of my 8 cores too with more of them actually working - heard my case fans kick in for once!

I'll put in a hour or so of game time tomorrow to check but tbh it ran pretty sweet before (loading excepted).

Rig is;

AMD 8350 @ 4GHz
NVidia GTX 970
16GB RAM

Settings pretty much maxed out

Linux is holding exactly where we thought it would in the Steam Hardware Survey
5 Dec 2015 at 9:45 pm UTC

In the last few weeks I have;

Installed a new GFX card
Upgraded to Ubuntu 15.10
Doubled my RAM
Bought a steam controller

No survey....

I do wonder though if running a benchmark like HL2 Lost Coast updates the stats?

Steam Controller On Ubuntu, A Tweak You Need To Do
5 Dec 2015 at 1:15 am UTC

Mine is recognised but the controller is unusable - can't control the mouse pointer. Steam now wants big picture mode all the time - sigh. I could see me using this controller but it seems on ubuntu (at least for me) it not happening.

My Thoughts On SteamOS After Some Time With It
15 Nov 2015 at 10:05 pm UTC

Think I'll be sticking with Ubuntu on my desktop - am thinking about a steamlink just so I can play D1rt on my TV though...

On a sidenote though and forgive me if it's been mentioned before but isn't it weird the lack of press on the release? Here in the UK there's been nothing on sites like the BBC or The Register at all...
