QuoteThis year, we’ve already put up well over 800 articles for all sorts of wonderful Linux games!

Honestly, I would settle for less content. Custom rss for patrons allowing to filter news about promises of linux support (that, surprise, turns out to be dropped), and differentiating news about game update, game launch, WIP/EA game update would be great.

Microsoft is hoarding 130 billion dollars overseas for reference.

But I don't see how Gabe Newell (and other co-owners of Valve) would sell it. He already has more money than he can possibly spend.

Is this supposed to link to something? All I get is a certificate error into 404.

QuoteWasteland and Starbase ARC will be redesigned to fit the standard set by other playing fields. The developers originally wanted to give some more variety, but since it's becoming a digital sport, they want a proper standard for players on the layout.

I'm still sad about the lack of flexibility from the player base and sometimes the aggressivity of pro players towards variety in maps.

Competitive game doesn't mean there has to be a single map with different textures. I wish there was new maps promoting different playstyles and strategies, otherwise watching pro games might eventually get boring.

QuoteLAN support

The technology is finally there!

Quoting: slaapliedjeI recall reading that Crytek wasn't paying their employees for like months at a time as well. Kind of weird that had some really successful games, then just sort of started disappearing. I mean if Valve didn't have Steam, with how long in between game releases, I think they'd be hurting for it as well.

Many employees left crytek to work on star citizen engine.

I thought cryengine was dead (crytek even).

Quoting: ShmerlWill it help Star Citizen, or Lumberyard is now independent from Cry Engine?

It should, there is nothing stopping them from pulling in Vulkan support from CryEngine, infact Chris said in the past they were waiting for the Cry team to do it.

But they forked a while ago and then made the (small) switch to Lumberyard and worked on 64bit a lot. There might not be much in common nowadays. Not sure they'll benefit much.

They used to be supporters of DX12 but admitted they switch their focus on Vulkan earlier this year, so they might already have been working with crytek or have their own work for Vulan.
