It sounds like XCOM's wonky camera problems made their way into the sequel. That's a shame.

Also, reading the official Steam forums, seems that even Windows users are complaining about poor performance and bugs, so it's not just Linux.

Quoting: BeamboomWow - I totally expected to have to wait a while for the Linux version. This is remarkably cool.

It was announced as a day 1 Linux release from the beginning.

Quoting: FeistI really feel the need for some spectacular news and I need it fast: "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided", "Fallout 4", "Dishonored II", "Mafia 3", "Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen", "GTA V", "Doom"....basically some title that counts as a "huge, action-packed AAA top-of-the-charts extravaganza", to balance this loss.

Mad Max?

Quoting: BeamboomWhat's the next surprise: Batman?

Yes, but the surprise is that Arkham Knight for Linux has been cancelled.

Well, this is too bad. I wonder why it was cancelled? Was it because WB was concerned it wouldn't sell enough to be worth the trouble, or did Feral encounter insurmountable technical hurdles?

However, this news is mitigated by the Mad Max news, so WB apparently still has faith in the Linux/SteamOS platform.

Quoting: subAs AMD user I'll most likely have to play it under Windows.

You'll can buy it on the Feral store, then play it under windows :p

Why buy it on Feral store, to reward their bad decisions? They should feel the sting of their incompetence.

Or maybe you should buy an Nvidia card to punish AMD? Feral doesn't write AMD's drivers, so there's no point punishing Feral for something that is out of their control.

Quoting: kshadeDid they fix Steam Controller support under Linux?

I was wondering about that myself. They're aware of the problem in Eurotruck Simulator 2 and have said they're working on it, but no fix yet.

There seems to be a general controller issue on Linux. I got opentrack head tracking working via my Android phone, which sets up a virtual controller at /dev/input/js2 but ETS2 does not see it at all.

Here's the email I received from them regarding ETS2:

Hello,

We are aware of the fact there is an issue with controler detection - our developers are currently working on a fix that will resolve this issue.

Best regards,
SCS Software Tech Support

That was about a month ago, so they're definitely aware of the problem. I'm just not sure why it's taking them so long to fix it.

Quoting: Segata SanshiroLOL the patch has made the game pretty unplayable. Everyone in the kingdom hates me and without the DLC it seems there's no easy way to get them to like me. Gifts and honorary titles only give half the points as they used to...

So Paradox gimps the game to force you to buy the DLCs, or is it an honest bug?

No idea. It might be different if you start a fresh game, but this is for one I started a while back.

EDIT: OK, so even the "hold a grand tournament" decision is missing for me... Essentially all of the mechanics for getting people to like you are either missing or severely reduced.

You should start a fresh game since things like crown laws were reworked and thus will be reset/messed up in an old save game. If you need to finish your game, try rolling back to the previous patch in the 'betas' tab on Steam.

Yes, Paradox has always recommended you start a new game any time there is a major update.

You know, one of these days, I'll actually manage to finish a game of Crusader Kings II or Europa Universalis IV before the next major patch is released. Hasn't happened yet, though.
