The extraction shooter ARC Raiders is out and appears to work on Linux

Server Slam playtest worked flawlessly without any issues for me and with great performance (epic settings, static lighting, DLSS quality 2560x1440 100+ FPS with 5800X3D/RTX3080). Great to hear it still works on the launch. I will keep my eye on it and let the dust settle a bit and then probably grab it also.

What's the problem with UE5?
Unoptimized crap with blurry TAA

There are very few devs that actually can tame this engine well. But hopefully those devs can. What i hear its custom UE5 engine, so theres hope.

Great news, but from what i gather its UE5... hopefully they customize it enough though.
just 2 locations and 4 stages isnt much either. Will keep my eye on this when it gets closer to release.
From a little gameplay i saw from traxxion channel on youtube it looks pretty nice simulation game for rally fans though.

vivaldi
Still clean of AI and they wrote a blogpost on their site about it
"Why Vivaldi won’t follow the current AI trend?"

even firefox added all the AI slop with 141.. so yeah every major browser on the planet has this crap.

Any news about when we might expect this game to be finished with all the content(remaining biome(s))?
haven't really checked this game since the early access release and finished it back then with the content it had, but have been waiting for this game to get released to start playing again.

CARGO blends off-roading with an action-focused Mad Max like delivery sim

Idea seems great, but even their trailer shows how blurry and low framerate it seems to run.
another UE5 jank i guess?

Competitive vehicle shooter World of Tanks: HEAT announced with Steam Deck support

Hero shooter with tanks i guess.
Trailer like always doesn't say anything, i guess lets wait and see.
pretty good choice of music for the trailer though if its just a simpler more fast paced version of WoT

No dx12 perf gains or losses from quick testing of UE5 game(StarRupture playtest) and Cyberpunk.
Cant complain about perf though. Seems to be close enough to windows for me at least.
Well they didn't mention anything about vkd3d-proton or dx12 in the changelogs either so i guess that was obvious.

5800X3D, RTX 3080, Arch Linux, MATE Desktop.

Valve reveal new Steam store menu and enhanced search now in Beta

Popular Searches - don't really care about
Categories are now kinda stupid big blobs, but luckily theres show more that gives better list

Theres also lots of wasted empty space on the both sides now.

Search box now shows the price also which i dont think it previously showed, thats nice but again it has big banners on the search list and fits less titles into it..

overall pretty bad, but its been going worse for last few years already...so yeah

im old a grumpy with the "modern" designs.

Tested it a bit. First i will say.. I'm not a fan of Fake frames.
But this is actually pretty decent for Warhammer Online. The game originally has 100FPS cap. but with LSFG 2x multiplier it sits at my refresh cap nicely and the input isn't that awful and ghosting is kinda okaish for that game at least. I needed to use wow64 build of wine though as i couldn't figure out how to compile lsfg-vk for 32bit.

Now with other games i tried: Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon and Robocop Rogue City, its really really bad. Lots of input lag and tons of ghosting. I guess modern games with TAA are really bad for fake frames...
