Quoting: ZeitgeistAre the fish-man representing the American natives?

Oh the racists! We should start a change.org petition to demand they pull the plug on this game as soon as possible!

Segfault here too.

Quoting: GuestDoes the game still need an internet connection "for activation"? As long as it does I’m not buying it. But anyway based on the comments for the announcement, the game isn’t quite finished yet…

Seeing as the game is only distributed over the internet by Steam and Uber I'd assume it still requires online activation on the first launch.
I've noticed that one day after the offline release illegal copies popped up on the internet, so either I'm wrong, or people have found a way around it already. I'd bet on the second.
When launching the steam version without internet you have to press escape to make the game stop trying to connect (it doesn't seem to give up out of it's own accord) and the game states "Login Accepted".
No, the game isn't quite finished yet, or at the very least a bit unpolished. We'll see how long they keep updating it :-)

I find it weird that the hashtag #happybirthdaylinux doesn't give any results on facebook yet ...

Quoting: oldrocker99+1 for a survey. I've seen people complaining about certain games, which run fine for me, not running for them (and they've got a GTX780, and I have a 650ti:huh:).

High five, I run a 650ti as well and I've never had trouble with any game.

Quoting: IlyaI usually buy games in a sale as gifts and only activate them once the Linux port comes out (so that if they decide not to do one I can just give the game to someone else).

Can you buy the game as a gift but later still install it yourself ("redeem" the gift from your inventory)? If so, I'll probably start doing it from now on. But I'm afraid that such purchases are still counted as Windows, because Steam can't hold the money until you activate the product...

That's what I'm afraid of.
Luckily I could still buy complete editions for my sister (who's also a Linux gamer) after the ports came out.
I activated Civ 5 a long time ago on my account to play through wine, ... so yeah: guilty.

If steam can see what platform you're using, why do they do the surveys? Why can't they just publish the actual numbers?

I'm curious as to what happens in such a case.
IF the game comes out on Linux, it is only played on Linux and was bought through the Linux client, but before the release of the port.
The great thing is that I have a sister for whom I can buy a second copy after release, so they're definitely getting some of my money!
