Quoting: ricki42This name calling is getting tiresome. Not everyone who has a nvidia card must be a fanboy, some people just want the currently best performance. In this discussion, it's already been implied that people using nvidia are braindead, now fanboys. This doesn't contribute anything, and really doesn't convince anyone of your argument.

I'm absolutely a fanboy -- of linux. I try to steer people away from AMD if they're considering buying new hardware to build a linux machine because I think their experience with an AMD card is going to be "what is this buggy linux crap and why is it so slow?"

The AMD zealots aren't doing linux any favors by recommending people use their cards at this point. If you're so stuck on AMD then I think the best course of action is to either stick with Windows or to remain silent and endure the poor drivers, and keep hoping that some day they will improve substantially. I've been using linux for sixteen years now and that big AMD improvement has never materialized.

Quoting: GuestThe problem isn't AMD.
I can predict this game will run poorly. I've lost interest in anything from Feral after seeing the quality of previous ports.

Hard, hard evidence points to the contrary.

Hmm I was trying to get my old Thrustmaster NASCAR wheel to work with this game last night. I wonder if it's possible after this patch.

Quoting: kernelhavokSo if you continue to buy AMD hardware, as it is generally cheaper, and knowing the last few years of poor AMD prop-driver implementations -- then you really only have yourselves to blame.

And if nvidia will have a monopoly one day and I have to do my daily work with a proprietary driver (which will be a huge pain in the ass and a lot of monetary loss for me) I know who to blame :)

AMD for failing to compete properly in either of their major markets? I *like* AMD. I have invested in their stock before (and fortunately gotten out while still on the plus side each time). Right now their CPUs are a joke compared to Intel and their graphics products are very under-supported on linux (by AMD, not by developers). I have one computer left with an AMD processor (a heartily overclockable old AII x4 620). It's the next to get retired in favor of an intel setup unless Zen offers a compelling bang for the buck.

I will support the underdog if they're doing a bare minimum to deserve that support. Right now (and for a while) AMD is falling below that bare minimum.

Day 1 buy for me. Loved Road Rash. Loved loved loved. I still go back and play it on an emu from time to time.

I just want to know if this is specific to my configuration ([email protected] GTX960), because I stopped playing now, waiting for an eventual performance update...

I'm playing with a 960 with settings between high and very high and I'm not experiencing that. i5 processor/8gb ram.

Quoting: scotsman9999Now they just need a way to delete games from your library, refund or no (many games I regret buying and would just like to expel from my library, no refund expected)

Right click, set category, click the hide tickbox.

I know, but I'd prefer it more permanent.

You could locate the install directory under SteamApps, zip the directory up, and email it to the devs/publisher and tell them you're returning the product because it's defective?

Quoting: liamdaweI imagine this is due to pressure from different nations, some of which have been hitting hard on Valve (and rightly so).

or maybe GabeN is just is pre-Summer-sale mood. Good step anyway!

He had to make a choice between this or wiping his bottom with hunerd dolla bills. The money vaults at Valve are full to overflowing.

Maybe a big note to the side of the entry as to whether or not it's been released as "Early Access", as I found at least one while perusing the current list.
