Haemimont Games & Paradox announce 'Surviving Mars', a management strategy game

no no, im not upset. but i find it really weird to skip games you potentially might like just because of character is this or that gender.

The Culling hopefully won't be broken forever on Linux, the developer does 'value' the Linux community

Quoting: GuestMostly negative reviews? Ouch.
yeah, recent reviews are negative because of game balance.
hopefully they will fix all those issues, cause its actually pretty fun game

Quoting: Kimyrielle
Quoting: GuestHaemimont Games are the developers of the Tropico series and Victor Vran.
I’m afraid I won’t enjoy it much if it is similar to Paradox games or Tropico 5.
I skipped on Victor Vran because I am not too eager to play games that force me to play a male character, at least not unless premade female characters become just as normal.

Sorry but what the hell? There are games where you need gender lock because of the story, Victor Vran is pretty much one of those. Ohh noo why do i have to play as female character in Tomb Raider? ...

thats just seriously stupid if you ask me. Why does the gender in games matter at all. If its designed this way its how you play it, if it has a choice to choose, then you choose what you want to play.

Great. at least they are open about it.. so +1 to developers.
I can agree with them that its sometimes hard to deliver Early Access titles to all platforms and ensure everything works, specially if you are small team.
lets hope it will be fixed sooner rather than later though

Quoting: dubigrasuI've played for a couple of hours this morning but I have this annoying issue with the mouse or gamepad getting stuck (can't look around). Found on the forums plenty of people having similar issues.
Did you had any similar problems (and any tips if so)?
Mine doesn't work atm. crashes after loading screen. But back then i didnt have any mouse "stuck" issues, but i know many had.

Albion Online to revamp the Hell Gate battles

Quoting: liamdaweGah, the launcher is utterly broken on Arch, nothing appears and trying to run it again just claims it's already running :(
yeah but i used this:

http://live.albiononline.com/autoupdate/manifest.xml [External Link]

checked the latest version from there and then downloaded:

http://live.albiononline.com/autoupdate/albiononline-linux-full-1.0.319.82981.zip [External Link]

works fine. Launcher seems broken indeed, with no error messages in the log also, so no clue whats causing it

i have played it few times and it has been working great for me.. last time i played it was in march and it worked fine also then. Will test out if it works for me atm also as soon as possible.

the game was/is fun though, but it seems they made things a bit weird with their "balancing" patch and many people left, so theres hard to find good matches.

White Noise 2 officially released with Linux support, along with some major updates

Quoting: Leopard
Quoting: Xpander5.6? so Vulkan? Anybody that owns this game can confirm this?
Using Unity 5.6 doesn't mean they're using Vulkan and i think it is not Vulkanized
since 5.6 vulkan its there, even if they dont use it by default i think it can be used via command line switch.
thatswhy i asked.
