GOL Plays: The Culling, a look at how this battle royale survival game runs on Linux
5 May 2016 at 4:16 pm UTC

still havent seen those UI issues.. i have seen the delay between hovering over menu item and clicking on it.. like it doesnt activate sometimes right away..but thats nothing too mayor.

game has vmem issues though... it basically consumes most of my 4GB of memory even when textures are at medium.

bugreport about it:

otherwise.. really nice game and plays smooth 40-50 fps most of the time, with no hitching or frame jumping.
ofc higher would be nicer but its fine enough for me to enjoy

Steam makes an attempt to fix up their review system

Quoting: BeamboomThey should implement real reviews to the interface instead, that'd be a vast improvement in my opinion.
The metascore rating seems to be optional for the publisher - I wish it was mandatory, with a tabbed option to see "user reviews" or "professional reviews".
i really disagree with that.. i dont like scoring system at all .. also i dont trust "proffesional reviewers" they are often paid to say good things about games and so on... If you look at that metascore site.. you see lots of those where proffesional reviews are completely opposite of the user reviews.

i prefer steam's system and now with that update its even better.

i will just read few of those reviews and can decide.. ofc some sort of gameplay video (unbiased) to confirm if i would like this game.

strange that i havent encountered any UI issues yet..but i havent played it much either...just 3 matches

for me framerate was pretty bad.. game like this needs 60 fps or at least stable fps above 45.
