Quoting: saildata

Quoting: KimyrielleI am utterly not interested in the DLC, but the "free" patch is nice and welcome.

As a side note, I really wonder if really EVERY country on the planet gets added before Canada does. I know, I know. We're America's hat. But still!

Canada is way too nice to be a war monger : ) I went to Victoria recently and would move there today if it wasn't so cold in the winter..

Eh, they could call the DLC pack "Canadian Winter" and make it a "Seasons!!!" pack together with the Australian summer thingie. We got at least as much snow as Australia got sun. Maybe more. And actually...Victoria is pretty warm. By our standards. I live close by. :D

Graphics drivers and related performance issues are probably our biggest sore spots right now, so that's good news. I hope he won't work on -just- VR though, at least not as long as the drivers are lagging behind their Windows equivalents in general. To be honest, VR is very unlikely to become a mainstream thing in this decade, that will be a battle for another day.

Quoting: bubexeli missed it ... sniff

Me too. I suppose most of North America was still sleeping then.

Quoting: M@yeulCThere are some theories that proclaim that our universe works that way, with these constants, because it makes life more likely, thus more likely for us to be sitting into it.

Since that's just assuming life to be a desirable result of the creation of the universe without any tangible theory of why this would be so, that's a fairly unscientific view of things. But I guess people still need to think that they are so special that the entire universe was made just for us, even if there is not the slightest sliver of evidence to support that.

On topic, the game looks nice. Still, I somehow wish at least for the time being, Aspyr would focus on bringing more AAA titles to Linux. We need these more desperately if we ever hope to lure a larger number of Windows gamers over. Indie games we're well sorted for.

Back in the days I liked Transgaming's approach of letting users vote on which games they should work to make them work in WINE/Cegega. Sometimes I feel something like this would help. There are games (such as this one) that the Linux community is clearly longing for, but often enough when I see which games they were actually working on, it's games I don't believe are all that high up on people's wishlists.

Huh? Since when do new Paradox titles not come to Linux? They ported all their recent stuff, no? oO

I rarely look at performance numbers and benchmarks, as I am happy when game runs with enough FPS for me to be able to play it. I would however be curious if there are OTHER components holding back Linux performance other than OpenGL. In other words, if a game uses Vulkan on both Windows and Linux, would it perform exactly the same on both Linux and Windows? Or would Linux still be worse?

Personally I am getting a tad jaded of the WWII setting (how often did we kick Hitler's behind in video games again?), but it -does- look like it's going to be a good game.
