Quoting: wleoncioDang, I'm kinda envious of you Rocket Leaguers now. I wish we had leagues/groups for other games as well (to play tournaments, campaigns or whatever). F1 2017 comes to mind.
I don't have F1 2017 but...count with me for a tournament about Grid Autosport ;)

Strategy game 'Cossacks 3' will have a Linux beta on Friday and I have a key for one lucky person

Help please
You should use the first one, which is an "official" PPA run by Ubuntu developers.
Second one is yet-another-user-who-created-a-ppa PPA.
Thanks!

Quoting: Corben2016 was a great year for Linux gaming in general, with a lot of big releases. Some of them finally released after being announced a long time ago. But what's coming next? I'm missing big announcements to get hyped for and to look forward to.
There are some kickstarter projects like System Shock or Everspace, but that can't be all.
Quite a lot of good releases are coming out in 2017 (supposedly if they won't be delayed of course). Torment: Tides of Numenera, The Bard's Tale IV, Underworld Ascendant, System Shock (remake), State of Mind and etc. I don't think we'll be lacking good games.
And don't forget Yooka-Laylee!!!

i'm waiting this game : )

My feel is negative, because all is slow ( i understand the industry always was with microsoft, change to linux can be slow )

so many games for linux are launched month more later than windows and well...i'm not sure about if steam are working hard...or only it has been a touch of attention to microsoft.

PS:sorry if my level on english is not the best....i'm not native english speaker

They just need to keep spending the resources to keep their in-house Linux expertise in a healthy state.
This little word "just" has such a big meaning...
I'm afraid, now that Microsoft has picked up DirectX again, improved Windows 10 as a gaming platform (with new features probably coming with the next big update), Linux is losing in the long run.
We are mostly late with releases, latest big thing were the Steam Dev Days showing VR on Linux. And everything else was shown on Linux/SteamOS Machines too, that was quite cool and impressive. But Valve isn't showing anything new or upcoming to us. So I'm wondering what do they have in their pipeline, if anything at all... and when.

There are some kickstarter projects like System Shock or Everspace, but that can't be all. My concern is, publishers and devs might turn their back on us and go for Windows and maybe Mac only again. Even the Feral Radar is pretty empty (except for two upcoming mac only titles) at the moment.

Atm I'm using wine again for a lot of games, like No Man's Sky or Doom. Luckily OpenGL and Vulkan make this possible. But I want more native ports! I'm really afraid of 2017 after 2016 had such a great pace.
+1...totally.... :(
