animations could use some work. Seems like some 1998 game animations
but graphics look good indeed

Great report :)
We had some fun yesterday with GoL people as well.
Samsai, Tadzik, Smilex and later the latter 2 were replaced by Ysblokje and Gurnu
Sadly i recorded only the shortest mission, because had some framerate issues when i hit record
But it was lot of fun :)

ts not too bad, runs 40-60FPS for me most of the time.. allmost everything on epic except shadows and textrures... it has improved a lot, no more huge fps stutter near huge player built bases also
but there are missing graphics options for linux client as well as some weird graphical glitches from time to time
Thats with __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1

Seems to run really good. Also seems like Vsync is enabled even if its not marked from the options menu(locked 60 fps makes recording much simpler though so its a good thing in that case).
Depth of Field is terrible. Not really my type of game, but bought it anyway to support devs.

Blaze Rush - Fun Top Down Racing game with Guns. Played it mostly local co-op with my 2x steam controllers.
7 Days to Die - played around 4-5hours, lots have been improved (played like 2 years ago last time), visuals are really good and runs amazingly if 64bit executable is enabled from the launch script and reflections disabled.

How big is Linux gaming? Some estimates

so if we know that we are ~1% in steam and on average every game has ~3% sales for linux users
we can calculate how many people are likely buying a game
and we can do same for windows
so lets say 1.25 milion linux users. A game that sells 200k copies for example and 3% of them are Linux sales
its 6000 copies
200k copies from all 125milion users is just 0.16%
now lets take out those linux figures 200k-6000= 194k
and lets take out linux user count 125mil-1.25 mil = 123,75mil
194k copies from 123,75mil users is 0,156% - thats how likely mac and windows users buy this game.
and for linux
6000 copies from 1,25 mil users is 0.48% - thats how likely Linux users wil buy the game
well i hope i did everything correctly. im not really good at math :D

Quoting: rustybroomhandlefrom what i gathered its still a driver issue. grid autosport just has its own simulation engine or something but ETS/ATS need the information directly from the wheel(drivers) to function correctly.Quoting: XpanderYus. It's not a driver issue though - the rumble and force-feedback works perfectly in Grid Autosport. I believe it's just a limited implementation in *TS on Linux.Quoting: rustybroomhandleI play ETS2 using a Logitech Driving Force GT wheel. It works fairly well there (and presumably on ATS also) but on ETS2 at least, the force feedback and rumble was not fully implemented yet. (On Grid Autosport it's fully working)you might want to check here: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/linuxff/discussions/0/405692224235574471/ [External Link]
Even without these features though, a wheel is the best way to play this.
