Quoting: GuestIt would be fun if this game connected somehow with Stellaris through events like their April fools joke using HOI IV, that would make me a lot more interested!
Must have missed that one.
What did they do for HOI 4 ?
Take a look! It was a lot of fun!

LOL
That's cool.
Some games actually had futuristic content for April Fools. I remember War Thunder doing mech walkers one year.
Still the rage quit bot from Rocket League takes the cake.

Quoting: GuestAny word on Vulkan?
Nope, all we have is the announcement. Very doubtful for such an old title though, doubt it would be worth it.
You're correct, yep. These games use OpenGL.

Regarding cross-platform multiplayer, we're working on a Linux vs Mac patch for y'all. We'll shout when that's released.
Thanks for this.

One question. Will it one day be possible to play multiplayer with Windows users ? or is that not technically possible ?
Linux vs Windows multiplayer for SHOGUN 2 isn't technically possible. If it ever is, you can bet we'll be all over it. :)
I'm guessing this same issue exists with CoH2 and Warhammer 2 , right ?
Curios how the multiplayer mechanism works (if you are allowed to discuss this)
You can get some good insights into issues around cross-platform multiplayer in our Steam post [External Link] about CoH2.

Quoting: themixturemediaTo Feral do you know if you will be supporting Amd Gpu's or will it be all Nvidia support for this game?
We're still working on the system requirements for ya.
Thanks ellie.

Appreciate all the hard work you folks at Feral do :)

Earthlock: Festival of Magic is still heading to Linux

Quoting: tuubiIt's nice that they didn't forget us. I haven't played a decent traditional JRPG in ages.
Haven't played many JRPGs at all actually (unless Septerra Core counts)
May give this one a look.

I tried Wurm Unlimited and it was a painful experience

You know , even if this isn;t so good I am glad it exists.

Why ?

Too often in our medium , we loose games. Some hardware can be emulated but for online games once the servers go down , that's it goodbye forever. Nobody will buy the IP or continue supporting it.
Even if kept alive for the few fans left or as an example in gaming history , I am glad the game lives on.

Quoting: TiedemannI really like this game. It's a lot of fun.

Don't really care for MP on this as there's lots of other games with that and ppl are usually not playing the objective anyway.
there are not a lot of other games like this with mp
YUP
Fully agree.
If Linux/Windows cross MP works I will buy this for me and my mates. :)

EDIT:
I also stipulate I need to be able to play with my windows firends vs bots.

Sudden Strike 4 to release August 11th with day-1 Linux support

Quoting: KeyrockGreat to see, even if RTS isn't exactly in my wheelhouse.
Yeah. I love the idea of RTS games, but I'm rather terrible at them, so they're not much fun to play. Turn-based strategy is more my thing.
Have you tried any of the Paradox ones ? The allow you to slow down time or pause outright.

Looking forward to this one.
Will most likely pick up a copy. Just as soon I am sure the Linux port works well.
Do let us know Liam ;)
