More progress on Easy Anti-Cheat in Wine / Proton coming

That's another big step to be crossed for linux gaming! I hope the community understand that! Those AAA games added to linux catalogue is a leap forward for linux gaming.

Ea games and especially Respawn works are great and very played.
Apex is the most tactical and strategic battle-royal to play today.

Now add Fortnite and other epic stuff, and it will be 99.99% overall game compatibility with Windows ;)

Incredible work on the sound design in this game. The trailer doesn't render it.

@Liam: sorry, badly formulated question: Jedi Fallen Order is not multiplayer and with their anticheat?
because the origin launcher and Jedi Fallen Order was reported multiple time as playable on protondb.
So I was wondering how this sentence can be interpreted "EA's Origin launcher is now functional and Jedi Fallen Order is playable" as this statement is not new and i don't figure out precisely what they improved in this step ^^
So I will be grateful about more information if anyone in the community has some.

A note on using Steam Play Proton and counting the sales for Linux (updated)
11 Feb 2020 at 9:48 am UTC

...And there are people that only buy games that works on linux by ethics (interoperability, freedoom of choice, foss support, etc.) and with the aim to switch on only-linux but play them mostly on windows because virtual machine and dual-boots still suck. For example, I know some people with different OS on laptop and desktop for who a game working on linux or mac is essential for few hours when moving even if they mostly play on their desktop windows.

The only real measure would be to tick a box when buying mentioning why we are buying those games, and we may have an access to a "by default" of those ticked boxes in our profile.
Those boxes should be:
drm-free; linux, mac, windows-only (you can tick all the 3 boxes ;) ); independent studio versus big editor;

...and even (if not my main cup of tea) nationality of the studio (for offshoring and so on)

It will also demonstrate may-be that the current situation if not the one desired by consumers ;)

Valve making steps to address toxic behaviour on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

There are two types of different unpleasantness: naughty behaviour (ex: two time in the last month I played a guy that killed me while team mate in last survivor; the guy that cry in his mic; guy with music in the mic, etc.) and cheaters.

At least if cheaters were put aside it would help this great game. Yesterday, I stopped to play after 4 different rounds I was in front of cheating people with no fun. Replay VERY helps and it should be used by full time moderators after reports.
The inventiveness of cheats is also incredible: the classical guy that only killed by head shoot in one bullet whatever the gun he had, the guy that can take 3 awp shots in a raw with only 80hp decreased (meaning that he can probably tweak his cheat? or with adding more armor? don't know how) -seen yesterday, the guy that can view all hidden people ...I don't know how also :D
This game is a hack hole for hackers XD

Narrow, dark corridors in a scary universe...

Translation: Scary universe is here only to justify a poor game with 1/ narrow corridors, 2/ design with no color, 3/ weak animation of creatures and 4/ linear gameplay. That sort of game is onyl good to create a depressive mood :)
I'm no longer scary about dark and sudden cries for decades, since my ten year old in fact. Not my cup of tea
