Quoting: chui2chClose Steam out. Open Steam... Profit. This was suggested by Feral on the Twitters. It worked for me.This is not working for me. Besides, changing the download server leads to Steam restarting anyway.

Quoting: kellerkindtAnyone else for whom it does not download anything on steam? :(Yes, same problem here. It stops at 0 bytes, but says "Ready to play". Maybe a server issue, I will try to change it.

Nvidia 364.12 released for Linux with official Vulkan, Mir & Wayland support

Further, the XCOM 2 regression is indeed fixed, I now went from 17 fps to 26 fps in the Avenger view. However, the patch came at the same time, so I cannot rule out Feral optimisation work too.

Quoting: STiATFor the option __GLVND_DISALLOW_PATCHING=1 %command% - there was a note of a nvidia dev that they're looking into fixing this. Due to the changelog not specifying anything about it, my good-to-go guess is that it was not fixed (yet).Indeed it is fixed. Bioshock Infinite and Borderlands 2 now start fine without setting this environment variable.

If you use nvidia proprietary drivers, the latest 364.12 fix a performance regression. Now going from 17 to 27 fps in the Avenger view.

Quoting: SketchStickTo fix specific games on Steam, go to game properties and set the launch options to:Is this still valid for this new driver? The new version should have fixed this issue, plus the XCOM 2 regression. I have not tried it yet.

Hopefully this will happen today. Not only for the DLC, but also for the major patch.

Quoting: Renzatic GearThe stuttering is GONE, but missions seem to be capped at 30 FPS. It never goes above it, never goes below, save for the occasional I-Can't-Believe-I'm-Mentioning-This dip to 29.5 or so.Are you sure that in Options->Video, Enable v-sync is unchecked? By default it is checked and this was leading to the same issue. Unchecking it solved it.
XCOM 2 is so popular it has beaten the all time peak player count of a number of games

However, it is now recommended to never set LC_ALL, other than for testing purpose (according to the Arch wiki and a Feral developer.)

Quoting: EikeDoes setting LC_ALL to C solve it as well?Yes, that works for me. C is a default. It probably fails for any language where the decimal point is a comma (as it is in French, for instance.)

Quoting: EikeIs it connected with locales that have commas between floats (like "3,14" instead of "3.14" )?Yes, it seems very likely. But this only applies when LC_ALL is set. Other LC_ do not pose a problem, even if set to a non-English locale.
Because that might make a whole bunch of different problems, including 3D rendering.

Finally user Brix cracked the problem on Steam forums:
unset LC_ALL
It has been confirmed for many users. How come does this interfere with 3D rendering?
