Quoting: Xpanderreally? Deus Ex MD runs good? i have places where fps drops down to 25, which is unacceptable.. no matter how low u put my settings.. and i have GTX 1070. Same with Mad Max, rare places, some camps where looking at some specific angles fps tanks to 19-25fps, while other than that its mostly 70+ FPS

Have a look at this:

Recently on Phoronix we've tested the re-clocking and boost support in Nouveau with the Linux 4.10 kernel and separately landing in Mesa 17.0 Git was the big Maxwell performance boost for Nouveau Gallium3D. That Gallium3D driver work improves the Maxwell open-source performance by "1.5x to 3.5x" via instruction pipelining improvements. With those latest improvements in the kernel and Mesa, how does Nouveau now compare to NVIDIA's binary Linux driver?

Maybe the next Kernel 4.10 brings with it the solution for your NVidia-performance problems. :)

Feral Interactive is able to do things, Aspyr isn't able to do. Or not wanting to do.

From me ah "Hooaah!" to Feral Interactive!

Sad for me, that I´am with my CPU (AMD FX-6100) underpowered, too. :'(

For today, yesterday a Demo was announced. Don´t know if this is for Linux, too:

And of course, a gentle reminder - the public demo will be available tomorrow!

I also doubt that CDPR changes its mind ... but in the GOG forum there is a wish list with a petition for W3. It can not hurt to vote for it there (+9612 already did this):

Hm, Pierre-Loup Griffais mentioned on twitter, that with the recent radeonsi-drivers civ6 works fine:

Civilization VI appears to work fine on recent RadeonSI, for what it's worth.

It is not explained in detail, but i assume that with "recent" Mesa 13 aka Mesa 17 is meant. The AMDGPU-drivers made a big step in combination kernel 4.9 + Mesa 17. <- that's what I am playing with actually.

Maybe that civ6 is a maybe for me now. But i will wait on user reviews after launch.

Some possible reasons:

- You are working in an Microsoft Studio (-> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Studios [External Link] )
- The game studio you are working in is sponsored by MS.
- You know DirectX since the 1st version and have no interest to re-adjust your developmnet technics.
- You think (what is wrong) that Vulkan is too complex.
- Your studio focuses only on the Windows market and considers a new, alternative technology to be over-the-top.
- You work in a small studio and experiments are too risky for you.

Another twitter-User questioned:
-> https://twitter.com/AngryPenguinPL/status/829060597069258752 [External Link]

"for clarification, we speak about AMDGPU-PRO (closed source driver) or RadeonSI (open source driver) or maybe both?"

Aspyr answered:
-> https://twitter.com/AspyrMedia/status/829064127716941826 [External Link]

"Future's a bit unclear. Again, both are possible, but don't expect anything anytime soon."

My answer to this:
https://twitter.com/KUJoppich/status/829258684756787200 [External Link]

"For me too: Future is unclear. No proper AMD support - a buy is not an option. Don´t expect it anytime soon."

I am an AMD-User. With no AMD-support and having potentially never cleaned up these issues the money for the game would for me be thrown out of the window.

Quoting: KuJo

AMD "works", but with issues, so unsupported.

Is it impossibile to work out this issues? What are the exact "issues"? Why are other companies and games able to support this? (*head shaking*)

Aspyr respondes:

Anything's "possible". But no promises in the near future.
