Nice. I guess this game will make more sense for Steam Machine, when it arrives.
I have been playing over 35 hours now and im addicted. So many tense and random moments in this game that makes every play super unique and fun.

Valve put up a new Steam Linux Runtime 4.0 with a move towards 64-bit

In ideal world 32bit support should have been dropped like at least 10 years ago, but at the same time, if its needed for compatibility for legacy applications/games then, yeah, just don't break things that someone might still want to use.
wine wow64 has been pretty good lately, but iirc there are still some issues running 32bit things on 64bit environments and whats the state with old native 32bit games i wonder, can those be run in pure 64bit mode now?

Sorry, but does anyone even care about Game Awards really?
The real award for the developers is when their game is enjoyed by people.
Just random selection of games into arbitrary categories and pick the winner doesn't really chime with me.
I never understood the awards thing tbh. Might be just me problem ofc.

Added to wishlist. It looks promising, but currently its more like a tech demo imo. Only 10 cars and 2 rally locations with just 2 stages with 6 slices of those in the game, watersplashes, puddles physics are not in yet either.
will see when it gets more developed, but at the moment there doesnt seem to be much content.

Completed the resources. I wonder what rewards we will get with that? merit points or whatever.
Honestly haven't had that much fun playing multiplayer game for a while. Never been into Extraction games before either.
But this game just oozes with atmosphere and amazing gameplay.

Nice. I bought the game through your fanatical link and have been having a blast playing with a friend.
Yesterday managed to kill the Leaper (the robot spider that jumps). Super fun game tbh and runs like a dream.

Hm... time for some testing, if this AsyncCompute fix also fixes the VR async reprojection issue. Sounds similar enough. If so, it would be a huge improvement, as this is still an issue with any driver after 550. It might not be prominent on more powerful GPUs, yet my VR rig is either a 2080 oder 3070, and here it is happening when not using the 550 driver.I doubt its about VR async at all. The game ran great with AsyncCompute but it just hanged when opening map/inventory. That got fixed. I doubt it has anything to do with VR async reprojection but worth a try i guess.

Never could get into Rage-2, kind of got real bad reviews, lots of empty nothing to do in the gameworld I heard.It's not a great game if i'm honest with you. Story is bad, Most of the characters are bland, cringe and uninteresting. Lots of idiotic busywork on the open map etc... but that being said. Combat is amazing if you can look past any of the other issues the game has. Combat is kinda like DOOM 2016 and it gets even better if you unlock all your abilities.
What people think about it?

Rage 2 AsyncCompute issue is finally fixed after 4 years :)
No more hangs on map menu. This was the only issue i have had with nvidia drivers. Other than that their drivers have been rock solid for me at least.
More performance would be nice ofc, but i guess i'm playing games (not really into most of the triple A stuff) that perform great on my aging RTX 3080 as i really haven't seen much of a performance issues like some people seem to have.
