Quick question: does it support Cross-Platform multiplayer?
I have a friend on Windows who would love to play it with me!

I can't find any review on protondb about running it on proton, do you have any experience?

Thank you

A look over what's on sale this weekend for Linux gaming fans

About the Humble Just Drive Bundle is tier 3 worth it or should I buy only tier 2 for Road Redemption?
I'm not a huge racing fan so I really can't tell the differences among these games

Feral Interactive are asking what you want ported to Linux again

Quoting: Liam DaweDon't agree, especially when it's popular games. Steam Play can break with any game update, as is now the case with Monster Hunter going from seemingly great to unplayable in a single update ;)

Support is what we need. Proton is great for older titles not being updated constantly.
WAAAT, Monster Hunter broken? I just bought a new PC for it, I HAVE to play it with my friends:'(

So, my list is:
- MONSTER HUNTER WORLD
- CYBERPUNK 2077 (I'm like Jon Snow with this game but it seems cool)
- For Honor (A friend is bugging me to play it with him, but the anticheat seems to be on the way)
- Alice Madness Returns (old game, sadly now it's Origin only, I was slow to not buy it when it was still on steam, but it seems to work with origin+proton so....)
- Catherine the ps4 version (the "Classic", aka the pc port, is broken, I have to try the PS3 emulator then)
- Soul Calibur VI (seems to work on Proton but hey, it's a cool big game!)

What, only three games allowed in the list? Six is better, prepare for trouble, and make it double!

Well, with Steamplay I have the chance to play "Sid Meyer's Pirates!" for the first time! No issues here (it's from 2004 after all). Old game but great game!

The bad thing is that this interrupted my Saints Row second run (replayed the Third and re-began then Fourth).

While chanting "Drunken Sailor" I'm trying to download the huge "Deus Ex: Human Revolution" I bought some time ago. I'll test the mettle of men Steamplay soon!

BTW, have anyone tried "Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator" with Steamplay?
(Liam, I know you are a Sci-Fi fan, check this out)

The Humble Sports Bundle has some awesome Linux games

Quoting: razing32I'll play this again when they get rid of that Red Shell nonsense.
They pledged to remove it , once they do i may re-install it.
I get where you are coming form personally could not give a rats fuck if some game studio wants to know what game i played after i played there game hell pay me what they paid red shell and i would happily tell them.
It gathers a LOT more.
Including , OS , screen resolution , browser and sites visited.
All in the name of "marketing".
Sorry but NO.
Sorry but my reply is and... its nothing my isp and google dont already know and probably the government
I didn't know what this "red shell" is so I checked the mighty internet [External Link].
It seems that the devs aren't using it and they are going to remove it in the next update.

An article on Ballistic Overkill is published on Tuesday... Is that a Teabag Tuesday reference?

Jokes aside it was great rediscover this little game! Do you know what bonus we get at high levels in the classes (levels>20)?

We have a copy of 'Nimbatus - The Space Drone Constructor' to give away to one lucky Linux gamer

I'd like to build a laser pointer drone to attract all the cats.


This is only the beginning.

I'm going to have an army of cats under my commands: the people who won't surrender to the cuteness will die to the sharp claws!

The gol goal explosion is only in the dlc or for everyone?
I haven't played the game for a while, are there any new goal explosion out there? Are they visible for everyone in the match, even the ones without the dlc?
