Quoting: DrMcCoyLooking forward to that game.

And I'm glad that the title is correct German and not some mock-German or incorrectly inflected or something.

I was thinking something similar to you.

Quoting: leillo1975I think Icculus should finish a project before starting another. Sanctum 2 have a lot of bugs...

was gonna say the same thing

Quoting: HamishWell, I will just link to my other post in another thread:
http://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/looks-like-limbo-is-now-being-ported-natively-to-linux-thanks-to-icculus.3851/page=3#r18594

No need to sum up my feelings twice.

Haha "punk kids".
I have been using his ports for a long time but I do hope that he finishes sanctum 2 but it looks like he has a lot on his plate. Have been a fan of his since the beginning and I agree give him some time and he'll come through.

Quoting: KelsHopefully they finally add a FOV slider. I tried watching the first part of a playthrough of it and was nauseous for two hours afterwards. The Steam forum is full of people complaining of motion sickness from it.

Ive heard about this problem from all the way back in the doom days but I still dont understand how fov helps with motion sickness?

Quoting: c00kie55Installing streaming server on a windows 7 virtual KVM machine with 16gb ram and the AMD r9280 gpu passed throug with newest virtio drivers for both ssddisk and network card instaled the game Rise of the triad had big lags when using host as client. I havent tryed passing throug a dedicated network card to the streaming server or using bridged network so i can use the laptop as clint to the virtual streaming server yet.

A virtual streaming server makes it possible to hide the signal through a diffrent monitor or monitor input source.

This is what I want to use the NVIDIA grid cards for. Run a couple instances of windows with the grid card and stream to the rest of my house (except the desktop). http://www.nvidia.com/object/grid-boards.html [External Link]

Quoting: fedsoEvery time I hear an interview where HL3 is hinted I have the sensation it is talked about like if it were an old memory. I'm starting to think too that HL3 is not in the plans anymore, considering also the fact that Valve seems be focused exclusively on multi-player nowadays (where the big money are, looking at Dota2 tournament).

Of course they could also make it a great co-op game. Also if HL3 bridged the gap with portal and included portal like puzzles it could be killer. L4D3, cant wait.

It sounds to me like they want SteamOS to be popular. If you buy a SteamMachine you get the new unreal tournament out of the box.

Quoting: scaineI am in awe of what Icculus does, but I've yet to play a single one UE3 game that didn't have horrible, often game-breaking bugs.

Examples :

Killing Floor - missing textures on all maps, West London is nearly unplayable as a result. I can see the invisible monsters. But I can't see through some scopes...

Sanctum 2 - Textures missing (minor), collision issues (player and monsters falling through the world) and many, many random crashes. This one is still in beta, but it's been like that for weeks without any updates.

Killing Floor doesnt have those bugs anymore. The textures have been fixed and the scope has been fixed, even the invisible monsters are fixed. Sanctum 2 is still beta and you cant really judge it yet.
