Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and XCOM 2 are both super cheap this weekend

Last night I updated my Mint 18.1 installation to kernel 4.9 and Mesa 17.1. Now I have OpenGL 4.5 activated, but with the radeon kernel driver. AMD Tahiti/Tahiti Pro hasn't got AMDGPU-Support till now.

By this my Cities Skylines-Steam Installation runs fine now. Before (radeon, OpenGL 4.1 and Mesa 11.2.0) I had strange graphical artifacts around lights. That's fixed now.

So I'll give DE:MD a try and have a look at it.

QuoteDeus Ex: Human Revolution’s poor sales means the franchise is taking a break.
QuoteIn a statement issued to Eurogamer they said, “While we are still working on expanding the Deus Ex Universe, along with creating new content and updates for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, we’re also devoting our talents towards working with Crystal Dynamics and Marvel on The Avengers project.”

Quoting: Kohrias@Kujo: I have an AMD RX 480. With the current Mesa git 17.1 it is playable @ > 30 fps if you do reduce the graphics settings a bit. The driver has been tweaked a lot in the last weeks.

Hm. In the Steam-Shop in the specs is this written: “AMD and Intel Graphics Cards are not supported at the time of release'.

And ... the game would be unplayable for me, if you with a rx480 has only a fps of 30 - i own a r9 280 ... :'(

So sad that deus ex mankind divided is not playable on AMD graphic cards (not supported from the developers). :(

Is it possible to play the coop-mode crossover with Windows-players?

I´ve just started too. Only with a little amount ... but a German proverb says "Kleinvieh macht auch Mist" (little cattle also make crap).

Likewise, I have registered today on this site, although I have been here for almost 1-2 months almost every day.


So it will probably continue ... Win7 will be my last (native) Windows. Perhaps there is a locked in a virtual machine Windows again ... but otherwise I will go over long or short completely to Linux.

As an old gaming hare, which in 2004 even established a still existing gaming clan, I would like, of course, under Linux continue gamble. This page helps me find my way around. That's why I like to support this site.
