Quoting: cbstrykerIsn't that for the native Linux version? I have the windows version installed (with DLCs) and it's sitting just shy of 250 GBs.Just base game without DLCs is ~130GB for windows builds and ~70GB for linux native builds... with DLCs the windows builds go well beyond 200GB indeed

It's Free to play and its Native.. So there's that. Played couple of rounds, but imo its pretty awful. Combat is pretty bad. Audio-visual feedback is not very well done imo, the animations are pretty bad. First person view is kinda strange and third-person is even worse for this type of game imo. The Maps are kinda bland and boring also. Points of interest locations are like just slapped in and loot is sometimes very weirdly placed. Graphics look pretty OK (minus few visual glitches with water reflections and shadows) and the game runs well. Not the worst game out there but lacks a lot of polish. I might be spoiled with how fluid the combat in Apex legends is. But like i said.. Its free and just like 10GB to download and at least in EU zone i found the matches pretty quickly.

Ohh sad. I have been using this for a long time and it's been amazing tool to clean up all the background noise. I think i will still keep using the build i have, cause other similar programs never worked great for me.
Proton Experimental bumps minimum driver version, more playable on Linux and Steam Deck

afaik all the vulkan beta drivers since 470.62.05 support the VK_KHR_maintenance4 and the latest being 470.62.29. so those drivers should still work on older gen cards right?
Also this update is for experimental, so its not a big deal i think. Sooner or later the support for old GPUs has to stop somewhere imo.

As owner of nvidia gpu for so long time i would say i really haven't even had the need for gamescope as everything has been working perfectly with multimonitor for me. Games run, perform, open in correct monitor etc. Cant really complain, but i guess good to hear they are working with valve.

not opensource, yes, but that's the way they do stuff.

Quoting: ArdjeBut no old gpu support, nor opensource support for older gpus. While AMD and intel still get updates (not because they need to, but because they love to see it work).what? they have legacy drivers for older GPUs which also get updates for newer LTS kernels from time to time.
(IMHO: NVidia is just slightly better than being the D-Link of GPU's).

Quoting: rustybroomhandlei backed up the file before the game updated :)Quoting: RichardYaoHow did you get the correct file?Quoting: quotI wonder if dropping in that missing `easyanticheat_x64.so` file would fix the issue. The removal seems accidental, so I'm assuming the main binary is still compatible. Of course, you're risking a ban if you try that, but I am curious.It does fix the issue.

From the steam statistics tracker in here, its clearly visible that when there have been more chinese language users, then we have had drop, the lines match quite closely. Every time ther's a drop with simplified chinese we get a higher percentage.
edit: Also windows 7 seems to get a small bump every time there are more simplified chinese users on steam.
