mostly i like the new web design
couple of issues though:
1) i badly need dark theme - too much white kills my eyes
2) the featured section picture is way too big and eats too much space
3) weird space(big gap) between gol icon and the rest of the links on the top panel/bar
4) on the front page when some article has 2 digits for amount of comments the line is split weirdly

Windows Games On Linux, WINE & PlayOnLinux

i wanted to use PlayOnLinux but i always felt the interface quite slow and weird
specialy the parts where its configuring something or making shortcuts etc (its like windows with lots of next, next buttons imo)
i'm mostly using my own scripts for standalone wine versions and prefixes
i sometimes use playonlinux compiled wine packages though which i download from here:
http://www.playonlinux.com/wine/binaries/ [External Link] and then just extract to the place where i want.
my basic scripts are like that: http://pastebin.com/Xhr7K2ty [External Link]
then also same scripts for winecfg, winetricks and regedit.
i just copy those scripts to new game folder and then modify the game executable :)
that's how i like to keep my stuff organized

havent had this issue for years imo... this was fixed i believe somewhere in wine 1.5.x something

Quoting: XodetaetlAre there more details about "Improved support for restoring display mode" ? It would be nice if it meant that Wine now restores the screen res when a low res fullscreen game crashes.wait what? this issue has been fixed long time ago.. when they updated the xrandr support in wine

Nice, i played beta a while back and it was decent fun, but im not good at those types of games :)
Gameplay still reminds me a lot of teeworlds, but like said previously here its a bit different, not by much though.

Developer Who Sent A Death Threat To Gabe Newell Decided Not To Leave His Studio

i still think it was stupid to pull the game from steam.. it shows how much in control they are, if they dont like something they can just remove it..
ofc that death threat tweet was nasty as hell, but it wasnt meant seriously anyway, internet is full of those comments.
they could have settled this matter privately.. but pulling a game from steam because of that is still stupid in my eyes... i bought this game and i wont get updates to it anymore..how fair is that?

guild wars 2 ran pretty good last time(about 6 months ago) i played it with wine CSMT..except the performance in world vs world battles was just crap ... but i dont play it anymore.
cant wait for chivalry...have played it about 10 hours or so with wine.. it worked quite OK but native is a lot better:)
