Quoting: liamdawe

Quoting: tuubiThe game seems really fun. Too bad my friends have probably already lost interest, and playing with random strangers isn't really my cup of tea. I'll most likely still get it but I might have to wait for a sale. Happily the Steam summer sale isn't far off.

Then join in some games with the GOL community, I am sure there will be plenty ;)

Is that via the Steam group?

I remember seeing somewhere it where it a comment said "The Phillips CD-i of gaming PC consoles." Please. Besides title support, I've been thoroughly happy with SteamOS. Early on, audio and display bugs were pretty bad, but with Intel/Nvidia hardware, I've had good luck. Even with my crap Gigabyte dual-BIOS, I made due. I love the idea of being able to control my system and have fun with it. It's my own personal toy. Build and add software I want, script, game, anything I feel like doing. If I knew how to design and code a competent UI, i'd happily distribute tools like my SteamOS-mega-downloader [External Link]. I will use things like this when making USB drives again, since I am too lazy to buy more for some reason :)

However, in reality some things need large attention this year, or the media will just continue to spit on this:

1. Multimedia from an actual application-like interface. Using a browser is clunky, even if I do it and it's fine for me.
2. Game titles (no brainer, but I have way too much to play)
3. Broadcasting (why this isn't there is beyond me)
4. Source-SDK support
5. HTC Vive support
6. Accurate promotion while using the platform
7. Permanent wall space on major pages that feature new games / items.
8. More communication with the community, especially on the GitHub bug tracker. Most folks don't even know what is required, since their DIY page is vague on exactly what GPU's are supported. It's not hard to reference the current driver version's compatible cards and place that in a txt file.
9. Something, something, Dark Side....

It doesn't take much to even load an LTS Ubuntu release just to test. I don't have to be a dev to u derstabd that is simple. If a 1 hour test showed you it was broken, seems a simple enough reason not to release the major version.

I saw the fork, but is there a reply for their main source code?

Quoting: LinasSteam Controller is amazing. It is a new kind of input and takes some practice to master. But I am now over the initial learning threshold, using it for all my gaming, and am not even considering going back to mouse and keyboard. I still do have a keyboard plugged in just in case I need to type something in a terminal, check mail or whatever, but have not touched it in an actual game in a while.

Same here. It can do anything. Love it.
