Quoting: adolsonSo was it in-house or third-party? Source code port, or Windows binary running in Wine or eON?
It's definetely not Wine. It runs far better in Wine than the linux version.

Everyone's saying it's a good port but it runs like garbage for me. 25-60 FPS at 1440x900 on medium settings on a GTX 780 Ti....

Maybe I just need to reboot, lol

Wow. Unbelievable. By the time this is out, nobody will even care anymore. And they've embarrassed Valve by saying it would be ready for the Steam Machine launch.

Quoting: MGOidBugs, bugs everywhere... I bought this in the Black Friday, the game show me a message saying it needs OpenGL 3.3, when I have 4.1 in the free drivers... It keeps crashing no matter what I do to convince it that my hardware meets the requirement... Now you guys say that the multiplayer is broken, so I did the right thing for getting a refund.

This developer is known very its very bugged games, so I will keep away from then. Dead Island still refuses to work with the open source driver. Another case of NvidiaGL for you...
No, the multiplayer worked fine when I last played.
