Thank you for your work, devs! (:

I haven't worked on drivers before, is there a best practice how to get involved in doing so?

Quoting: Purple Library Guy

Quoting: rea987Lastly, installing Linux to my friends' computers in order to play with them? Sure, I would do that 6 years ago but not any longer; that's how you become "free of charge IT guy". No thanks.

Ah, it seems I neglected to put smileys on my earlier post suggesting such installation, having forgotten the unfortunate scarcity of levity-detectors among internet users.

Actually written communication is the best way to get each other wrong, since so many aspects of communication are just none existent.

Hi Liam,

I totally got your point! Still I do hope controversial issues may still be possible to discuss.

The Feral guys also read those comments over here and usually do comment if they feel like that. I'm pretty sure after the release there might be some more information given to us.

As long as there's no cross platform multiplayer confirmed I'll ask Linux Gamers not to buy the game. Feral really should learn there lesson not to release multiplayer games like this.

If they could fix that issue I'll buy the game instantly at the Feral store and recommend people buying. I might consider buying it also for friends who are playing Multiplayer with me then. (:

I could understand your points being made above: I see no point in developing a new game with the same problems again. What's wrong with them? I mean Sega as well as Feral should have some interest in having a cross platform multiplayer which will result, as said above, in more sales as well as a longer life span of the game.

Yes, there might have been an implementation of the multiplayer already when Feral got contracted, but still there should be ways and it couldn't be the idea of the publisher to lock out certain players from a bigger multiplayer player base.

Is it an action and battle only game or is there trading and building included?

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTIf the new engine is the same as the old one there is NOTHING Feral can do. It is relic and the engine's fault.
They can give you multi , you will connect and get immediately dropped. Do you want that ?

I don't care if Feral fixes there part or Relic. In the end DOW 3 is still in active developement so Feral should talk to them to fix things up. It's already a shame that the legacy games didn't fix but there's no excuse for a brand new game to spawn it with dead multiplayer on Linux.

Guys, obviously I know there're technically reasons for that. Still it's an attitude since the job of a developer is to solve problems. You got a problem that you need to solve by implementing it in code. I'm a dev myself and I know a few issues can be massive, but better have no port at all than a only partly functioning one.

I don't want to be separated from my friends regarding mjmtollaEr by devs because they decide cross platform multiplayer is not doable. Even though I prefer Linux at any time I don't want to force anyone to use a specific OS to play with me.

Even though this is a new engine no cross platform multiplayer? Are you joking Feral? Hold of buying their multilayer games until that attitude is fixed!!!

Don't split the community again and again and again Feral! That really sucks! Sorry!

@Feral Interactive: Will the multiplayer being fixed this time any time soon?

If it runs well and is a nice game to play I might still consider buying it. Will it have cross platform Multiplayer?
