Lol that Crypt Run.....uh 5k dollars more for a Linux version? No thanks. I asked them what engine they are using. I hope it's not Unity.

For those running the game on a Optimus Laptop. I created a script and shared it in the forums. It is using "primusrun". I even uploaded a short 5 minute clip of my gameplay to show you what is going on. My forum name is MintyLinux

Quoting: JaminEatWorldHullo - Jamin from Born Ready Games here. 

As Liam says, we're hoping the beta should go live today - so keep an eye on your inboxes. Most of you who sent us your emails should be on it; we increased the number of applicants who will be able to play the beta, and most people will be sent a code. 

We'll have full details sent out alongside the Beta key, but any questions do let me know.
I bought this game on steam after hearing the beta for Linux was being uploaded. Do i have to send you a e-mail in order to get into the beta?

Off topic notice, but "Sir you are being hunted" is going to release their alpha to their early backers from kickstarter soon. I also noticed it was taken out of my List in Humble Bundle. So im hoping the people who pre-ordered it will get a version to play soon as well!

DOTA2 will be smashing onto Linux soon
11 Jul 2013 at 12:11 pm UTC

I was running Dota 2 earlier. It seemed to crash alot..but that was expected. So far i could just watch matches. I tried to find a game...it never found one. I couldn't do bot matches...it would get to the loading screen and then crash to desktop, and i couldn't do the practice mode....crash to desktop. I could just watch people play. It was pretty cool though. Something nice and new to look at. I cant wait to get a chance to play.

Makes you think why we dont have these things on Linux. I dont think anyone knows how to make stuff for Linux. Anyway, this would be a cool job for someone. Hope they find their person.Would love to see some crytek games.

People must be getting broke, or just not about awesome games. Sucks to see those that failed, end up the way they did. I was really hoping for Anthym, that was looking rather interesting.

Left 4 Dead 2 infects Linux as it's out of Beta!

Quoting: Francois MAROT
Quoting: hero900the bad thing is you need to re-download 13 GB
Really ? I doubt it. I thought you could use a shared folder (for Win's Steam & Linux's Steam) for most games and that most data are shared between OSes.
Might be possible to take a windows install and add all the linux excutables to it. Not sure though.
