Like you said , i'm just thinking outside of our small box and decided when it comes to asking support ; right way is the Facepunch taking now.
We are not on Ars Technica Liam , we're on Gaming on Linux. I'm not saying that we should send him hate e-mails or similar. I'm completely against it.
If you are thinking as a journalist outside of small box , that this very website is also pointless.

Quoting: liamdaweReally Liam?Quoting: LeopardYou do understand what an "Update" is right? The article text was all up before Garry had properly responded and said any of that.Quoting: liamdaweNot talking junk actually but you're always doing this. At least be honest this time and beside with us , not with devs.Quoting: LeopardTalking junk as usual I see. Not what I am saying, not even hinting at that at all.Quoting: liamdaweLol , with that pov ; we should never ask support for any game. Right?I am personally disappointed in Liam Dawe for his statements against those that have been victimized by Garry over a number of years.No one has been "victimized", do you even understand the meaning of that word? No one has been singled out and Facepunch aren't being cruel.
Liam, you as a journalist have a responsibility to the reader, and those that have been victimized, to be fair, and this is lacking.No, as a journalist I have a responsibility to not be biased, to think outside our small box and think about all angles. Which I am doing.
Since we are minority?
Facepunch dev clearly states he won't / he wasn't doing a QA regarding Linux builds. And you're saying that is understandable due to low market share.
Than it must be also true for all devs too , since market share is not specific to Rust. It is on nearly every game.
So TL DR ; you said that is understandable due to low market share. So that is also understandable for all other games too?
Correct me if i'm wrong to think like that.

This part is very , very odd.
We're still updating it , so we didn't drop supporting it. So all of these refund request are baseless.
And while 60% of Linux users are fine with this, they understand their position in this world, it's probably not the right thing to act like it's fine. So while we're still going to ship Linux updates and keep it up to date.. we're not going to sell it anymore.Why they still keep pushing updates to Linux version? Smells like a " workaround " to not giving existing users to chance for a refund , due to Steam policies.

Quoting: DuncNvidia bug was game crashing during loading assets. Near 1800th asset it was crashing to desktop.Quoting: EndeavourAccuracyMy experience with Rust on Linux was mid-June of this year.Same here. I think I have an hour on record, because I've owned it for longer and tried a few times to run it. I've never actually been able to play the game. (It may well be that NVidia bug, but it doesn't look like one. It feels more like something in the network code.)
First, it crashed, so I restarted.
Then I joined a queue to start a MP game.
After waiting for ~15 minutes to join the game, it crashed again.
Never played it again, 0.4 hrs on record.

Other problems were ( 5 people including me refunded on Nvidia driver bug state , 1 person applied workaround and get past asset loading screen ) according to person who got it running were :
1-) Crazy memory leak
2-) Very slow load times
So he also refunded due to this.
Overall ; yes there was an Nvidia bug that affects drivers higher than 390 but that was not the only reason of our refunds.
Like he stated on these 3 year old tweets , probably he never tested Linux builds so it made them more error prone. When people started buying , refunding , error reporting ( recently saw a Rust related issue on Valve Steam Github ) it just triggered him.
Well , honestly i'm a bit sad but i rather prefer giving my money to devs who really tries to support Linux.
Good luck to him and his game , that's all i can say.

Quoting: namikoNvidia driver bug had a workaround , we discovered it a bit late.Quoting: Leopard...Turned out it was a Nvidia driver bug.Wow. If he's got Nvidia's Linux drivers to blame for lost game sales (their drivers have been pretty impossible for some laptops), that's pretty shitty of Nvidia.
Definitely upgrading to an AMD when I get the chance because Nvidia on Linux is going downhill.

On the last sales , 6 person bought that game and refunded due to crash to desktop out of 40 person populated Linux discord group.
Turned out it was a Nvidia driver bug.
I think people like us who are refunding and noting problems on refund request triggered that not willing to support Linux anyway dev and he got rid of us.
Simple.

Quoting: AzPGreat news! They recently tweeted be that "We are still doing loads of work with Vulkan, and may have some news for you soon…", so hopefully we will see it release with Vulkan support!If that means revisiting old titles that needs performance upgrade, they're very welcome.
