Serious Sam 3: BFE with the 'Fusion' engine and Vulkan could arrive next month in Beta

Quoting: ShmerlSteamworks too much. That happens for multiplayer games indeed, which rely on Steamworks servers infrastructure. But for single player games this doesn't apply.
ALL Serious Sam are multiplayer. Even The Talos Principle has some multiplayer functionality (you can read messages on the walls created by your friends). So, if you want a singleplayer game from Croteam on GOG, they can publish... Football Glory.

Quoting: LeopardGOG zealots are on their run again.

(...)That's the GOG view people.
A hypothesis: Shmerl is a Pole and GoG is Polish, wrong vision of patriotism is the culprit for all these posts.

Meanwhile I am a Pole too, and I don't know why a Croatian company should lose money to help a Polish digital distribution platform.
Actually,i don't care about nationality.

I just can't get this passion about a platform which obviously didn't care Linux a bit.

So you want drm free?Go for Itch.io,why especially GOG?

Quoting: ShmerlSince Croteam games aren't found on itch.io either, you are for excluding non Steam users in general. As I said, I find it inappropriate and quite surprised such attitudes are found among Linux users.
If they can and they want to come Itch.io,i will be happy about it.

As i see,you have a specific fetish with Gog.Also this Che Guevera guy too.Which i'm so curious,what cause that?

You are apparently against asking developers to release on GOG. I find it wrong and inappropriate.
No,i'm not.I'm against to tell and some way force the developers (who also tell that two platform thing is a little bit hard,there are links above) bring their games to a platform like Gog which is Linux not welcomed.This is like, trying to buy an item from a salesman who shouts you to 'Fuck off,get off my sight!' and you're okay with it.

I'm not okay with it.Which is why i only buy from Steam and Itch.io.

What's your problem with asking developers to stop ignoring Linux users who don't use Steam? If you don't have this issue because you aren't excluded, why are you upset that others bring it up? Reminds me how some Windows users are upset that Linux users ask developers to release games for Linux. Exclusivity is bad, you should know better.
What?I'm against Gog, not Steam and Itch.io.

I prefer Itch.io to Gog,which they care about Linux.

Ohh,i almost forgot.Gog has it's client for Windows and Mac(they're beta but available)but not for Linux.

They care about a fly much more than they care about Linux.So that's my reason.

Long live Steam and Itch.io!!!

Unless they stop giving zero fucks to Linux community(just like now),let it stay absent.

Actually,i don't give a fuck about them right now.Let them be happy with their Windows and Mac games.They have their own titles with support of Mac+Windows but no Linux.

Oh right,they also publish some Dosbox games to Linux which is only place that they think they can sell these.That's the GOG view people.

Quoting: HollowSoldier"This newer game engine will be using Vulkan and it sounds like a big win for Linux"

Vulkan too, or Vulkan only? The game is ancient, people bought it according to ancient system requirements and may be playing it on ancient PCs. Getting a surprise update after the beta, that locks them out wouldn't make them happy.
I think Vulkan too.

Because they said they will remove Dx9 support,which is clear game will support other Dx versions and OpenGL too.

HITMAN released for Linux, initial port report and two gameplay videos

Quoting: EhvisFirst time I have major issues with a Feral port. So far I've made it as far as the video after the helicopter pad before it exits with error 139 (segfault). Has anybody seen driver issues?
Are you playing this on your desktop resulotion?

You know,Gtx 970's has 3.5 Gb full speed vram,maybe this is your problem.

Quoting: JahimselfThx for the comparative bench Dubigrasu. Curiously the difference is smaller when it comes to higher graphic presets.
Because at high settings gpu's load becomes more,at low setting cpu is main limiter,which OpenGL has issue with cpu and core usage.

Vulkan will change this cpu effiency to DirectX level.

Quoting: JahimselfI don't like it too. Port works great as usual (although Deus Ex:MD works better on my pc), but I don't like the game. Interface, atmosphere, sound, menus, camera, controls and environment does not make me feel like a hitman. More like a funny assassination game not to shock young players. On top of that I don't like the online feature for a solo game. I have asked feral for a refund. I already own dirt rally so if possible I'll buy another copy of it for GOL instead.
You don't need to be online for single player.They replied it like 100 times.

Online is needed for online content,like elusive targets.
