additional configurations coming in May starting at $599.99. The SteamOS version is due in May with a starting price of $499.99.

Really glad to see this, price is a big motivator

Quoting: woox2kUnlike others here, my Windows usage went up drastically this year. It was all "thanks" to Satisfactory not really working out for me in Linux and i had to play it in Windows.
While it is supposed to work just fine on Linux i guess my CPU (5600X) just was not enough to keep up and i was getting very regular and annoying frametime spikes whatever graphics settings i used to a point it felt like the game was running at 30fps in mid-game. Frametimes were a lot better on Windows until the very end game, i guess wine etc. just has a bit more CPU overhead on Linux.

This is the difference between Factorio and all these wannabes.

Pretty sure in the last minute it'll get pulled. Just after a reminder from microsoft that they'll ruin them if they don't.

we *did* take the disputed page down as soon as we got the notice because it's not worth fighting stuff like that

Curious, what did itch put in the "disputed page" to trigger this?

Someone should write an open-source engine for warcraft 1 and 2!

Quoting: NezchanProbably going to hold off until tomorrow before I get anything, the client's sluggish as hell right now.

But I'm thinking Arcanum, which is at a temptingly low price of less than CDN $2, and maybe Psychroma, which looks intriguing.

I see Northard, which I was interested in a while ago, is super cheap but I'm also seeing a lot of recent bad reviews, concentrating on bugs and the devs focusing on multiplayer and making paid tribes instead. Lots of people saying that's wrecking the balance. I'm interested in a single player experience, so it's not looking good.

I played Northgard two years ago (single player), it's really fun. The campaign is not very long, but the "conquest" game mode has a lot of replay value. There are a good number of clans in the base game already that would let you play conquests for a long time. I did end up buying 2 or 3 extra clans on discount, just to get more conquests out of them!

Don't what exactly might have happened these days, but the complaints of "devs make paid clans" and "balance" had been there back then too, didn't stop me from sinking many hours in the game.

Quoting: jordicomaWhat does this mean for glsl? Is khronos abandoning it?
!link [External Link]

Depending on what you mean by abandon, yes and no.

GLSL hasn't been evolving for many years already, Vulkan is satisfied with SPIR-V no matter the source. glslang (the reference compiler) _is_ being maintained though.

Quoting: Caldathras

Quoting: The ArticleI imagine most of you gaming are likely at least on the 560 series

That being said, I'm surprised that GOL does not collect the driver version along with the rest of its user statistics ...

Probably because that changes too frequently, I for one am not going to remember to check every update and come update my stats here.

Must definitely be AI, that's "revolutionary" these days

Anyone knows how to have a convenient get-the-latest-nvidia-driver setup on Debian? On Ubuntu, they had something in the settings to choose the latest driver. In Debian, the nvidia driver is always waaay behind.
