Currently pretty addicted to Immortal Redneck, but a sprinkle of War Thunder is always good and i think i'll try Verde Station, too.

Nice move, would be nice if more devs handled it that way ^^
(maybe not yet after 5 years, as then maybe many people would wait for it though...)

I've not heard of the game before, but i'll give it a go, space is always a good start ;)

Quoting: mylkahave you tried switching the windows version to vulkan?
at least less CPU usage... maybe better FPS

THANK YOU for that idea - increased my performance even more (i only have a i5 3550 with a rx580)

Quoting: TuxeeInteresting. What driver version? As far as performance goes: I have pretty much everything maxed out and reach around 60fps on 2560x1440 both with Vulkan and OpenGL. However, with Vulkan I get TAA, Tesselation, gunner cockpits and less non-critical bugs (OpenGL shows square shadows and smoke looks rather weird). One thing with Vulkan though is a rather sluggish mouse movement in UI. Still on my machine their Vulkan implementation looks quite "late-beta", dunno why they are not switching to this API for all their platforms.

For reference:
The "eastern front" benchmark gives avg 98fps, min 61fps, rating 9755, "tank battle" yields 75/60/4685.
(And my nick in the game is the same as here.)

AMDGPU - but on KDE. And i don't want to tinker around with compiz to get the game running...

i got around 20fps in naval battles on lowest settings with the linux-client, around 50-60 fps with highest settings via proton+dx11 and now around 80-90fps with highest settings via proton+vulkan (steam launch options "%command% -forcestart -driver:vulkan")...all on 1440p

I still get a blackscreen with vulkan...it's really a shame how they neglect the linux-client.
At least it runs with proton ootb nowadays, 4x the performance with better graphics than the openGL-Linux-client...

Other than that: everybody that hasn't tried it yet should - one of my most played games ^^

I don't know if i'm strong enough NOT to go for the 3900X :D
Now the only question is, when will Navi be supported mainline - hopefully not too long after launch...

Quoting: Purple Library GuyBTW, this is not a complaint about this game particularly. From the description it seems to be quite good. However, I can't see pixel graphics as "charming", instead they simply look outdated to me. I think it would benefit greatly from proper hi-res graphics.

i think pixel art CAN be charming - if it is enhanced by modern standards. I think the "Kingdom:..." Titels of Noio look quite good, the modern water/mirror-effect really goes well with the pixelart. But just plain old pixelated graphics are not necessarily good and charming, thats true ^^

Quoting: mylkacant they all just make it exclusive for epic supported OS? mac and windows? so they can still release the linux version in other stores

that would require for them to care - and at least judging by their communication with the fans...they simply don't

While the artstyle surely has its charm, i somehow can't stand if the UI is deliberately made "bad" just to fit the "old times" :/

Maybe you can try to get any statement from them, they don't care answering the questions from us backers, neither in comments nor via email...
I'm really pissed about this, if they don't clear this up i'll be getting a refund and pirate it instead - and i'll probably not back any more games after yet another letdown...

I hope your fears are pointless - after all, battleye and EAC are already have a linux-version and i never heard of it requiring a specific kind of driver or kernel - so i doubt the proton-supported version will require it. ^^
