MADE TO WADE + 茶 = cha

I actually think it is Bajonetta. This makes perfect sense because it is SEGA.

They have ported it to Windows and will bring it over Feral for the Mac and Linux. If it's going well, it certainly will not be the last one. Bajonetta 2 is currently only available for Wii U. What a waste. :)

Had a quick test:

Vulkan:

OpenGL:

My specs:

Resolution was 1920x1080
Nvidia driver 378.13

OBS seems to cost me 2-4 frames. Without OBS I was almost always above 60 FPS with Vulkan. My system is decisive benefiting in the Stronghold benchmark, where I have now 60 fps nearly constantly.

The remaining scenes are also okay with OpenGL.

Good work Feral. Keep it up!

The default configuration will not allow you to move the camera with the right pad while any other button is being used, including movement with the stick. This is a big problem for a game like this to not be able to move the camera while doing anything, so I highly recommend changing it to “Mouse Joystick”.

See https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/mad-max-released-for-linux-port-report-and-review-available.8368

This is the main reason why I don't get into this game until now. “Mouse Joystick” isn't nice. As a work around I have additionally configured the the gyro as mouse. But this is also not an optimal solution.

Any ideas?

I had the same issue. I've fixed it using Steam Controller Configuration available on "Community Configurations" that works well.

Thanks. Will try to find this.

Cute. Cool to see such a kid compatible game. The artwork reminds me of a certain company. ;)

Okay, I think I've come a step further. Now it becomes linguistic. Look at this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplified_Wade [External Link]

Simplified Wade. MADE TO WADE. This could mean that we should transliterate the Mandarin symbol for tea to roman characters. MADE TO (get transliterate with simplified) WADE.

茶 = cha

Right?

Any ideas about cha and games? :/

Okay guys, let's get some more structured. :)

As I see it, Feral has so far ported games from the following developer studios (publishers):

Codemasters
Creative Assembly (SEGA)
Relic Entertainment (SEGA)
Eidos Montreal (Square Enix)
Dontnod Entertainment (Square Enix)
Crystal Dynamics (Square Enix)
Avalanche Studios (Warner Bros.)
Monolith Productions (Warner Bros.)
Relic Entertainment (THQ)
Firaxis Games (2K Games)

If I look into this list and remember the already ported games, then I notice first that Tomb Raider 2016 still pending. However, I also feel Nier: Automata is realistic. Square Enix is the only publisher that has already released games from three different developers. Insofar as the porting is not too expensive, both games would make economic absolute sense. The games are top sellers and even with only 0.8% of the steam marked Feral could sell a lot of copies. I think such a port is worth it.

But the Chinese symbol for tea and "made for wade"? What the heck? How this could belong to Tomb Raider or Nier: Automata?

Am I missing something?

EDIT: Please don't consider games which are already ported to Mac. So it can't be Total War: Shogun 2. Sorry. ;)

Nier: Automata makes more sense to me:

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/640a9a/new_ping_on_the_feral_radar_made_to_wade_for/dfytey5/ [External Link]

The Reddit poster forgot Warhammer 40k, published by THQ, but no exception to the rule. Feral porting games from big publishers. Everything else would make little sense economically, I think. Nier: Automata is another blockbuster. Even with only 0,8% of the market you can make a lot of extra sells. They have sold already one million copies. But I'm just guessing. This radar is a fun thing. :)
