Interesting. So it looks like they are skipping 12nm Vega, and going to 7nm right away.

Quoting: Luke_NukemTyranny is 32bit only?Not anymore. They released it in 64-bit which fixed (or rather helped to avoid) a long standing and common lack of LFS bug of their 32-bit release:

Quoting: omer666I thought they were rather supposed to unveil Navi sometime soon... aren't they?Navi is planned, but it won't come out until 2019 probably. Too long of a wait for those who were disappointed with bad initial Vega release (too expensive / too power hungry). I.e. it would mean basically another year without proper competition with high end Nvidia. Not a good situation. So I think Vega refresh should be coming in H1 2018.

Quoting: TrumpWonder if zen2 will use the same socket or if we will have to buy new moboIt should use the same socket, but motherboards obviously would need firmware updates.

Quoting: liamdaweNone of the press slides I was sent even hinted at a refresh of Vega.Yep, and that's a concern.

I'm more interested in when refresh of desktop Vega GPUs is coming. It's clearly needed to make AMD competitive again.

I don't think this Steam survey is particularly news worthy.

Quoting: Alm888I second this suggestion. Releasing on itch.io will also help exposure of the game to wider audience.Quoting: StrangerWhile I wish it was, the game isn't available on GOG right now. I hope that will change when the game has an official release after the Early Access period, but that depends on GOG - they want only the best :)And what about itch.io? I've heard they are much more cooperative in this regard.

Quoting: StrangerIt's available to use, and we build with beta support for it, though we default to OpenGL.That's good to know, thanks! So what they working on then, are there some engine features that can be used only with OpenGL or it's just in the beta state now?
