Hmm, was someone able to play Borderlands 2 with the UHD texture pack via proton?

I renamed the exe files so that ist starts. But if I try to install the texture pack, Steam does not start a download. It opens Borderlands 2, but there I can not find the texture pack :dizzy:

Quoting: HopfenmeisterPetition: While the "PC-Version" of Borderlands 3 is an EPIC-exclusive, release only the Linux-Version on Steam.

They will give a shit

Quoting: BielFPsNice news. Unfortunately since Borderlands 3 will be Epic Store exclusive,

I think I read somewhere it was only going to be exclusive for 6 months, so maybe not too bad..

Six months of timed EGS exclusive is indeed good. It gives Gearbox enough time for to fix the bugs of Borderlands 3 before the final release on Steam...
Consider the Epic store version of Borderlands 3 as an "Early Access BETA version" of the final game.

No it is not.
When my friends start playing at day one I can't join. When they played it through they will not start again because of me, not using windows.
And again it shows them Linux isn't worth a try, because of lacking game support.
The same is real for my son and his friends.
Thanks Mr. Sweeny!

Quoting: PieOrCakeMy two sons and I play Borderlands 2 together almost every day; two on Kubuntu and one on Windows 7. Yesterday's update breaking cross platform multiplayer was all the prompt we needed to finally replace Win7 with Linux. It's good that the update will eventually be coming to Linux, but we want to keep playing NOW.

A person switching to Linux is always positive !

But if the one on Win7 wants to play Fortnite or Apex with his friends, perhaps running Borderlands 2 via Proton is also an alternative ?

Quoting: einherjarIt does not start Just Cause 3. But it runs fine with lutris (my son plays it with lutris).

Perhaps it will work with the next update. I'll be waiting, as I don't want to deal with lutris actually.

Really each to their own but its really simple to use i find i get it if you arent happy with linking your steam library but i prefer lutris over proton because i have more control over the configuration.

To things let me prefer proton over lutris:

1. Using Proton tells the dev/publischer the money comes from a Linux-User
2. When I want to play, I just want to play --> Klick play and that's it :-)

I will consider buying this, if it gets a native build or it runs with proton (hopefully officially supported).

So I think now we know wich other "open plattform" Sweeney meant.
It is stadia - no way it is Linux...

Quoting: stuffAnother example being Shadow of the Tomb Raider because it got a sale soon after release.

Price and value of the game is definitely part of my ratings and reviews. This is IMO deserved, they should have not cut price so soon after release ....

Hmm, but every one looking at the game a few month after release, will see a negative rating. And this does not help these customers. They want to know if the game is good if it is fun to play. They do not care, if someone thinks, the game was lowered in price to early.
So it is a point of view. If I want to inform me, if the game is fun to play - what does the reviews help me, that rate the game down, just because it was going cheap to early (and this is just a feeling of the ones, who bought it at a higher price).

The act of lowering prematurely is still present. People who bought it early were paying for a service they didn't get (exclusivity in exchange for money, they lack money and exclusivity, theft?). This is not some subjective metric, you can compare all AAA games in last several years and look at how long it should remain at the top price. Weren't last Battlefield and Fallout just weeks after release hugely discounted? Right there, that is anti-consumer and in my opinion should reflect rating of a game, because if they pulled such scam once, people should expect to pull it again and this (rating and reviews) can warn new customers against scummy practices.

I am for everything being on-topic, because seeing how Valve is incompetent - saying DRM and EULA are OFF-TOPIC and not part of a game (WTF? DRM is literally part of a game and EULA must be accepted before playing, so, in my view, part as well). I don't trust them to not **** up, because they have several times already.

Hey, I think you miss the main point, nothing is censored, you can see everything and you can decide, if you want these reviews to be counted or not!

And by the way, I shall give Eizo a bad rating for my Monitor eh? It got much cheaper, since I bought it ;-)
