they should let knockoutgames do the ports. shadow warrior is quite possibly the best windows to Linux port I've played, and the support on the steam forums by kog are second to none.

If it's a fighting game, it would have to be Tekken. The new Tekken is using UE isn't it?

Quoting: iMicqSo, It's Mortal Kombat X? :DI highly doubt that any Mortal Kombat game would be someone's favourite of all time.

Dying Light Major Patch Released, Performance Finally Okay On Linux (UPDATED)

If you did, maybe delete, or move the folder and see if that works. I had a few issues with this update which were all solved by deleting the data folder.

Quoting: CommanderMeh for me the game crashes at launch.Did you make any modifications to the varlist_performance.src file in the data folder to disable sun shadows, cloud shadows etc?
Everything from
*** Error in 'DyingLightGame': malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000006dc9520 *** to
*** Error in `DyingLightGame': free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x0000000007cf04a0 ***
Was 70% chance of launch when they first patched the game, however now this happens each and every time. Also when i was able to launch I still had 14-20FPS on AMD 9590 and nVidia GTX 970.
Tired of this crap, already asked for a refund for this game lets see what Steam will say.

For me I can see a huge improvement.
pre 1.5 i was getting 13 - 30fps max (average about 15fps) with sun shadows enabled and everything else on high @ 2560X1080 resolution - disabling sun and cloud shadows made it playable.
with 1.5 I am getting a constant 40+ fps, probably average at 50fps, with everything on high and sun shadows enabled (I have cloud shadows disabled because they seem pointless, but I haven't tested performance with them on). @ 3440x1440 resolution and kwin vysnc enabled so no tearing.
The bridge part, where there are a lot of cars and zombies, used to drop to 23 fps at 2560X1080, with sun disabled, other settings didn't make a difference (textures shadows, foliage) pre 1.5update, now I headed to that area and it's 50+fps with sun shadows enabled, high textures, high shadow map and high foliage @ 3440X1440resolution, and the game runs silky smooth.
I am also happy they removed the blurring, which I couldn't disable pre 1.5, so I can at least now play it.
gtx980 xeon quad 3.8ghz 8giga rams.
Only issue I have, as stated before, is that the main menu becomes unresponsive after a few seconds. So I have to quickly continue or select one of the options before it doesn't respond.
Now. I might take on the final mission and start a new game.
***EDIT***
Seems like my data folder, where you can edit the sun shadows etc, was corrupt or something. Even though I had set sun shadows to enable I wasn't getting any shadows thus the high performance. I deleted the data folder and now sun lighting, shadows etc are enabled and I lost about 10fps from my previous tests, it's still always above 30fps and it's averaging about 40fps. It's more than playable and it looks great so I'm happy. The freezing menu bug was also caused by the data folder. So now my main menu doesn't become unresponsive.

Does anyone else's main menu become unresponsive? If I quickly press enter I can continue my game but if I idle for 3 seconds I can't select anything, the only thing I can do is esc and exit.
Steam Now Has Official Hardware Pages On Its Store (UPDATED)

The ASUS Rog models seem o.k. They look nice and are adequately equipped.
I think, and hope, that what could come of this is that computer stores start offering their own pre-built PCs with steamOS pre-installed, instead of giving people only the option of windows.
Also, a lot of these machines might end up selling to young kids, some of who might like to tinker with their hardware. Look at all the amazing hacks that are available on closed consoles. Imagine the amount of innovation that could come out of an open and fairly easy to modify console.

I'm on the last mission and just exploring the game, doing side missions and the such, if the update improves performance and makes the game playable at higher graphical settings, I will be playing through it again. With all it's faults, it's still a very fun game.
