Champions of Regnum MMORPG released on Steam

i have had zero launcher crashes, started fine all the time. no game crashes also with max settings.
only problem is that it turns off the second monitor when going fullscreen. and when using windowed mode with 1920x1080 for example, then some of the games content is hidden behind the panels.
but modifying game.cfg to 1920x1000 and windowed makes it work without problems and can see the full content of the game.

i have played it some time ago as well. i got turned off by the boring PvE grind.
never reached to RvR which seems to be a lot of fun.
but now i see that at level10 you have BattleZones(battlegrounds) to level up as well.
so i might give it another try, cause i really hate PvE in PvP orientated games.

prolly gonna do Linux Gaming Video soon as well.

Steam's January 2013 hardware survey is on, Linux is growing

also by addint linux mint to the list is false.
cuz windows only list contained linux mint and that list didnt contain macosx

but ur list contains macosx so the linux mint precentage should be much smaller in there

i looked those few days ago and im still wondering that were are the other linux distros counted?
i mean there are lots of Fedora, Debian and Arch users, as well as Gentoo and Mint and Suse

will Mint be Counted as Ubuntu? when i used Mint it had its own name under the hardware info.
same with my current Arch Linux, it shows the name there.

so my bet is that half of the Other Category is other linux distros and half of it is the rest of the weird operating systems/wine..

Edit: also as time passes im sure they will make the info to count the linux distros as Linux and Linux 64bit.
then have a separate Linux category where all the distro usage is counted.

John Carmack of id software chimes in on Wine gaming
5 Feb 2013 at 1:27 pm UTC

still wine is nice alternative to play the games that never get ported and it works really well with older games anyway.
i wouldnt mind if some good games are wrappen in wine, if we dont get limited features with it.
ofc i would take native ports over wineports every time.
sadly some of the native ports recently (hint HumbleBundle) have been so bad quality that the games run even better under wine :(
