Grand Theft Auto V gets BattlEye anti-cheat, breaks online play on Steam Deck / Linux

GTA Coops are one of the most fun experiences that I've had online. It is a shame that they are so married with online, cause I could not care less about GTA Online as a whole. I miss the times when allmost all games had their own dedicaded servers available and you could just host your own server.

I am completely fine with this. Also they could force applications and launcher in their Application Launcher.. like minecraft and bejeweled... you could ofcourse remove those but on every update they will come back...

> They're sticking to "Tarn’s vision, no matter how long it takes, rather than trying to optimize for speed"

This kind makes sense. But I bet that there would be work to do that doesn't interrupt with Tarns creative progress... maybe atleast.

Awesome project. I noticed that my temps were quite high and finally cleaned my case from dust and sorted my fans so that they are much more efficient. CPU stays 10c cooler now.

Quoting: ExpandingManI've been a huge fan of X since I discovered X3 in 2006 and it completely blew my mind. I do however understand why lots of people don't like it: it takes like 100 hours to get to the "core" gameplay lol.

I think X4 is the best one yet and the improvements have been great, but I do wish they could get some of the more "fun" parts like space combat to feel less terrible. Hopefully some improvements in this update? (downloaded, will get to play this weekend)
I have no doubt that it is an awesome game... but it is quite jarring to get into :D I have no idea what I am doing. I hope that this will help with my itch to play eve online. I'd play eve online, but who has time for that?

Quoting: RavenWingsI´d love to get into X again, but I don´t think I´ll ever find the time other then maybe on the Deck. Anybody tried playing it there for a longer periode of time?

I´ve sank countless hours into the first two games and remember using pretty much my whole keyboard worth of hotkeys, button-combos and macro-keys to manage my trading-empire. I´m sure they´ve modernised and simplified a lot of it, but I still can´t imagine its possible to boil it down to anything handheld-friendly.
I'll download it and check it out.
