Looks like EA might be banning Linux gamers using Wine to play Battlefield V

Quoting: GuestThis highlights the need to work with companies like Valve and Codeweavers to solve the anti cheat conundrum in their compatibility layer solutions. That is the only thing holding back linux gaming at present
I don't know if they are the only things the size of the market and the community a large are two main issues but yes a work around for anti cheat for liNux couldn't hurt

Steam for Linux was started by ex-Microsoft developers

Well of course valve saw ms moves and didn't want to lose its marketplace share so investing in Linux made sense. The fact they are still pumping in money and people into dxvk and proton is to be honest a big surprise. Maybe they are using the old adage of eternal vidualance in case ms starts building that wall again

Quoting: Creaper6A GTA: San Andreas port would bring me tears of happiness. Thank you for all the other ports you've already released, Feral!

Well good luck hope the new GIG goes as well as the feral work. Nice to see my native British Feral intereactive still plowing on with ports despite many devs ditching native in favour of proton hands off approach.

Steam Play Proton 4.11-10 out, mouse handling improvements and Halo: The Master Chief Collection works

Quoting: aFoxNamedMorris
Quoting: Schattenspiegelshould you guys not at least wait till they released more then one game of the collection?
My understanding is that buying the collection now will grant access to each game as they come out. Basically a preorder at a discount. This does not apply if you simply buy just Reach.
I believe we are getting them in story order so Reach halo 1 2 3 odst then 4

Quoting: ageres
Quoting: ageresRE2 still doesn't run on 5.4.2-1-MANJARO :(.
I re-made its wineprefix, and now it's working again. I hope RE3 will get a demo too so I could test if it works.

Quoting: tpauCyberpunk 2077 would be a nice thing.
I think we can rule it out given prokect red hatred of the linux community as a whole entity but yeah it would be nice to have
Likely for very different reason - they are already working on it for Stadia, so why would they need Feral for it?
interesting but i wouldnt bet on it being on linux but is it actually on stadia because at one point linux was getting witcher 3 then they changed their minds capcmo was going to bring out Street Fighter 5 and Monster hunter world to linux and it didnt happen if stadia is doa which i expect it to be i dont see those games coming either.

Quoting: leillo1975Being realistic, I would like to see ported by Feral the last 3 Codemasters games:
-DIRT Rally 2
-F1 2019
-GRID (2019)

Please Feral, make it possible!
Leillo: go buy a car and offer you a licence on a race circuit for Christmas :D
no more total war or car games (excepted if it is a easy plus for feral)
iF there is a total war game it will be out on the grounds sega uses the same engine so the tools feral need are already setup they just use which ever tools they used for the last one
