Still broken for me sadly.
Think I need to find and link a different library than my system one.

What OS are you using? If you are on Ubuntu, have you tried the Snap package that is currently in development by the Solus team? https://solus-project.com/2017/12/19/lsi-0-7-2-released/ [External Link]

First time hearing about this game and now won't give it a chance. I'm not looking forward to an overly saturated WW2 shooter market again.

Btw, found a video for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JX4LdZFFc_s [External Link]

After seeing that, Id rather play Day of Infamy. Sorry.

Most developers go with DirectX because its all they know and choose not to adapt. Classic vendor lock-in to a proprietary ecosystem. If code is abandoned, it makes the game lost art as it may not run on future hardware.

The beauty of Vulkan is that you are committing to an open ecosystem. An ecosystem that can be preserved due to it being free as in price and free as in Free Software.

Quoting: ShmerlYeah, it's quite nasty when commercial projects just use FOSS as their base, and never contribute anything back or support original developers.

That's what happens when you release permissively licensed (Apache, BSD, MIT) code instead of copyleft like the GPL.

I'm sure most of us would be lying if we said we didn't rub one out while playing Hunie Pop.

Valve keeps hurting the perception of Linux gaming every month with those stupid and rare hardware surveys instead of login and playtime stats. Oh and they are optional so that removes more "users" of the OS.

It sucks because the "media" and developers/publishers view it as truth when in reality people like myself login to Steam daily and haven't gotten a survey in 6+ months.

Quoting: t3gThe game has sold over 7 million copies at $30 a pop. It is a very important game.

140 million for the dev, 70 million for Valve.

So why do I work again? :P

Correction: 8 million copies and 1 mil concurrent (passed DOTA 2).

Quoting: t3gPLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS since the devs won't.

you say dev kind of stretching it he is a modder using arma code to make a game that is stand alone.The reason why it's not on linux is i expect because he has no idea how to make a linux port or how to change the code for a linux port. He and his team (if there is one) are clearly talented but player unknown is a mod that blew up to a full game (with one map and shit loads of glitches)
