I hope it ACTUALLY supports my GTX 690, and not just a tiny piece of the card like all the other drivers/openGL

I'm just wondering, could they convert their videos to another codec?

Garry Newman, developer of Rust & Garry's Mod on supporting Linux, possibly not for future games

Garry's Mod is fine, but Rust never runs right for me. Bad frames, nowhere near equal support on Windows. Sometimes I think it's my video card (GTX 690) on Linux, but it can handle games like BioShock Infinite, Borderlands, Soma, and Spec Ops: The Line, just fine, to name a few, so I don't really think it's a case of Nvidia drivers. I wish Rust did run better, but I get random frame drops whenever I'm doing something important and it really hinders my experience, which forces me to either play Windows to have a good experience at 60+ FPS on max settings, or not at all.

I only get 5-10FPS on Rust Max settings, and 30 on "Simple" at a way lower resolution, on Linux.

I think the reputation of Gaming on Linux is just fine. I'd rather not go to anywhere else for any of my Linux news. :) Keep up the good work, Boss. :) Some heroes don't wear capes.

Quoting: BeamboomAre there real tough weather in it? I've always wanted a survival game with heavy storms, deadly cold, whipping rain, all with proper audio that makes me shutter to the bone.
The blizzards are absolutely fantastic. Tons of snow limiting visibility, your character shuttering and a very accurate wind sound effect, make to be one impressive blizzard.

Rust.

Still won't run well for me at all, on any of my machines.

Edit: Also, improper Nvidia GTX 690 support and little assistance in the matter from nvidia.
