The "sad" reality is that even those super deep kernel level anticheats don't help these days. Sooner or later something new is needed. There are so many hardware level AI based cheats around already that are basically undetectable by everything.. THere are even some Gaming Monitors that trying to come out with a AI assisted tech like seeing enemy characters as colored blobs or so on... Drawing aproximate locations by listening the game sounds etc... its gonna be nasty future for multiplayer games sadly.

Didn't like the first game. Tried to start it 3 times with different mindset, but the gameplay was dull and characters super bland and uninteresting. gameplay was kinda meh also like tomb raider games. Environment was super well done though. And thats just me i guess. So i wont buy it. Maybe when its on big sale later this year or next year.

Good to see day 1 working big titles on Linux though!
Happy for those who want to play this!

This sounds more like some pitch to get some investors in rather than something already somewhere. Sound kinda more like a scam even...
They also have some investors like Polychain on the website, which doesn't rise the trust factor at all.

But well, lets wait and see i guess.

Quoting: EhvisThat's more about the technical stuff. I meant a game where it should make a difference.

Cyberpunk 2077, The FINALS, Apex Legends(DX12), Deep Rock Galactic, Ghostrunner ...etc

Quoting: rustigsmedSo I'm assuming with reflex support - nVidia frame generation may work now for those are after some fake frames.

Not yet.
Tbh its kinda pointless to have higher number of frames anyway when the input is like low fps.. yeah reflex will make input better but you can enable reflex without framegeneration also to make input feel nicer.

But reflex support is quite nice and seems to somewhat work with the games i tried, but hard to really say how much actually improved. My brain is old and slow.

X11 still works perfectly here.. Multiple different refresh monitors and the likes have not been an issue on X11, just have to sync to highest refresh in order to prevent vsyncs/compositors cap to lowest.
Im quite sure that X11 will be still around quite some time. I personally can't switch before my Desktop Environment of choice starts supporting it fully without any edge case issues..So plenty of time to still roll on X11.

Quoting: hardpenguinNo steering wheel for this one? 😎

Its way too arcade game for racing wheel :D i doubt it even supports FFB.
I used to play Flatout games with keyboard when i was younger and it seems i still havent quite lost it...

I always remembered that it looked better than Flatout 2 ... but its more blurry and low textured than Flatout 2 imo, water and reflections look a bit nicer though and there's more AI opponents racing. Other than that its just Flatout 2 with few tweaks here and there.

Also for some reason it shows Controller prompts in the menus, Even though i have no controllers connected. Still works with keyboard though, just have to remember the buttons.

Works out of box with Proton 9.0 (Beta) that i had selected.

I get counted all the time i guess, cause i pretty much never close steam and my PC is running 24/7 also.

On the Weekend i played:

Warhammer Online Return of Reckoning
Sons of the Forest
Red Dead Redemption 2
THE FINALS
FarLight 84

Shouldn't the powerlimit range come from VBIOS anyway.. depending on the GPU.
136W minimum for a 6600XT surely sounds a bit too high for a Minimum. On nvidia at least usually the limit ranges are sane. Higher end GPUs have higher minimum thats allowed.

RTX 3080 for example:

 GPU Power Readings
        Power Draw                        : 37.30 W
        Current Power Limit               : 370.00 W
        Requested Power Limit             : 370.00 W
        Default Power Limit               : 370.00 W
        Min Power Limit                   : 100.00 W
        Max Power Limit                   : 370.00 W
