I FKN HOPE SO, I've only been badgering Gaijin about VulkanAPI for like EVER. I guess they finally got sick of my comments now and again about it... :)
The game in my testing is not particularly fast with AMD hardware with very high settings, so I think Vulkan could definitely fix those nasty FPS drops at the very least.

This type of game desperately needs Multiplayer sadly otherwise its becomes far too hard and grindey and lonely. So unless their going to ad in some sort of AMAZING single player campaign that is going to captivate us (unlikely) then this game will suffer in the popularity area.
Perhaps further down the line they will revisit the idea, THAT would be a acceptable response, but saying no MP never it dead bye bye is not good.

I jumped on WotC last night at 11pm, just to check it out, when I looked at the clock again it was 3am :O

I felt this expansion was a little much for $39.99 price tag. Will probably wait for a decent special.
Sounds like Killing Floor 2 won't come to Linux any time soon

"issues with Unreal Engine", say no more, say no more friend.
Unreal Engine will probably work for %50 of the way to getting a port on Linux working, the other 50% of the work will be up to the developer, which is allot to ask. The opensource amdgpu kernel driver should be more compatible these days then the pro driver, but we will see.

Half the YT gamers support G2A and embed ads to them, the other half think their the spawn of Satan. Honestly you can't win, I will use G2A if I miss a special on something, and from what I have seen most games are fine on G2A its just a few developers that get hit with credit-card fraud and charge backs.
IMO those keys should be forcibly invalidated and then G2A will need to provide a new key, this is doable if you pay via paypal because there are big repercussions if they don't deal with it correctly.

I'm going to assume some of these BIG engine development companies don't have enough programmers capable of dealing with graphics engine API work, which is a SAD sign of the times.

Quoting: ArdjeAh, I nice showcase of how much better vulkan is according to Epic:That is mostly for mobile, which Vulkan works quite well on. It seems the UNREAL engine guys have really not done much to advance their engine under PC for some time, it puzzles me why some companies are taking so long to adopt VulkanAPI after we have seen MUCH MUCH smaller devs push out versions quite quickly (Talos for example).

Actually they don't show anything really, but they do say some important stuff, like with vulkan you can keep everything in the gpu.

Looks like a Linux version of Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation with Vulkan is still on the table

Its one of those games where you will need to find people on steam community and friends lists that have it and match up to play. Quite common for many RTS games these days vs just dropping into a game whenever. Its best to play them with people you know so you can socialize while playing, otherwise your just going to find dickheads with dick tactics all the time.
