Shame my upload speed doesn't support streaming. I just tried to stream HoN and while my ryzen didn't flinch at the encoding, my ping went from 50 to 400...

Quoting: KelsI've hated the damn gibberish chat right from the start. It's badly implemented and annoying, so making it unskippable was a major downside for me. By contrast, look at the old PS1 game Klonoa to see the same idea done well.

I was getting that tearing as well.
I have not check yet but I will do shortly

butbutbut I have a Ryzen CPU :(




the posts on the DoW3 steam community get ransacked by a lot who are butthurt. Maybe there are issues but a mate who is into Warhammer4k like me likes he (he prefers DoW2 while I preferred DoW1 ) so we will see... from what I have figured it is itching for an expansion Chaos + IG would reinvigorate the game

Quoting: razing32

Quoting: DudesowinWith a 4 faction system this looks more like Warcraft III. I hope they have plans to eventually add in Necrons and Tau.

I hope they add the Sisters of Battle in as well. I only got to play them in Soulstorm

IG for me :) but I am a huge IG fan (from tabletops) and DoW1 WinterAssult was <3

the IG make an appearance in DoW3 single-player so I would not be surprised if the next expansion contains them. Nec would be great but I have bad memories from DoW1 DarkCrusade... the Nec were beyond imba (Tau were fun tho).


Right now DoW3 looks dead :( The steam discussion group is filled will trolls denouncing the game but in part they are sort of right. [H] are also dismissive of this game https://hardforum.com/threads/warhammer-dawn-of-war-iii.1898611/

What would be good is an 8th release & a new expansion announced.

This is interesting but a worry...
This would point towards applications needing to be RYZEN friendly which sure is a POSSIBILITY for applications that can still be updated.
There is an awful lot that are not. Equally applications should NOT be made to function on a universal state machine (AKA generic CPU), the universal state machine is meant to accept commands.

This sort of thing needs to finally be resolved by AMD be it via fixing the die (shame for those with ryzen...), fixing ucode, patches to kernel.

Quoting: PieGamer314Strange, it never broke for me. I opened it up as soon as it finished updating and it worked just fine.

what GPU? what drivers?

I have nvidia-381.22 and vulkan crashes for me. I am just finishing recompiling libreoffice and ill try with the launch string from above

I bought this when it became available for linux BUT it never worked and no sign of help from team17.
I got a refund as well. If it was just linux related I would have persevered and found something gentoo specific BUT even windows users couldn't launch

if this "free mode" is available for all I will re-install to try to see if it works & if this mode works then ill get the game again. BUT if it is a bolt on for the present game... no indication it will work

Quoting: SpiteSo many "if it comes out it's insta buy" comments and they are worrisome to me. I mean I understand that you guys want to support linux as a gaming platform and developers who port their games to it but this kind of mindset is a little stupid. I mean, that's how preorder culture came to be.


We should not buy crap games or crap ports just because devs decided to release on linux. I'm not saying that it will be either of these 2 things, I just wanted to put it out there

I completly <3 DoW1 (and also WH40k, tabletop'ed as a kid) so immediately this has raised my interest.
I own all the DoW1 expansions and it is a great RTS game but ... no linux

I bought DoW2 (and was the last thing I dual-booted for) and was extremely disappointed... The single player camp was a great story but it was no more a classic RTS & more a MOBA ... The lack of building killed it for me.

I good mate of mine is still well into these games and beta's them all and he insisted DoW2 brought back aspects of classic RTS when they brought in the IG expansion (would make sense.. they are designed to hold a line... how can you hold a line without forming a line). He is presently playing DoW3 and is liking it. So between DoW3 possibly coming to linux I get to hear from him

instant buy from me as well if true.
I already have DoW2 from when I still dual-booted for gaming...
