What are you playing this weekend?

By -

It's the start of another weekend, time to grab a coffee and relax with a good game, so what are you going to play?

There's been a lot of really great releases for Linux lately, it's getting incredibly hard to choose what to play.

I am most likely going to be diving into some more "All Walls Must Fall", it seems like such a unique strategy game! I'm a huge geek when it comes to anything involving time travel, so it's speaking to my inner nerd.

There's also the Don't Starve Together event, which was actually quite fun. I've always loved the art style in Don't Starve and this event system is a rather nice idea. It is quite gruelling though, but that's likely down to the teams I keep getting, where everyone seems to go off doing their own thing.

I've also been looking into treating myself to a racing wheel this holiday season, likely the Logitech Driving Force GT, which Feral seem to support pretty well and eBay has some good prices for it. I love racing games, but I can only imagine how much more fun something like F1 2017 on Linux would be with a wheel.

Finally, on a personal note: I am moving house Monday/Tuesday next week and won't have internet installed until Wednesday so please forgive me for no posts during that time. I've lined up our talented wordsmith BTRE with a few posts to keep us ticking over.

This talented wordsmith will be playing a lot of the things that need covering on Monday and Tuesday. I demand a raise! :P

I'm currently trying to improve my track record in Brazil.
F1 2017, with "elite" realism but easy AI, is so much fun to drive!
(I'm using a Logitech G25, works perfectly and I guess they are not that expensive anymore.)

Been playing F1 2017 with the Logitech Driving Force GT myself actually. Works superbly and I've been having a blast! I wasn't sure we'd have a racing game I'd enjoy as much as DiRT Rally, but damn, F1 2017 is brilliant.

I played about 40 hours of The Witcher 2 over the past three weeks. I suspect I will try to finish it this weekend. Then ... onwards to Observer!
Snowdrake 10 Nov 2017
Mainly Wow and Dirt rally. And probably some Payday 2

Yeah, Dirt is really cool, but fighting wheel to wheel against other drivers in F1 2017 is a different level. The AI is also doing great, even on easy* you can't just overtake on the straight, you really need to be better.

*Well for my credits: I'm using the highest easy level, so close to medium ;)

Love to give Dying Light another go this weekend as well but still will not load. Think if I have time will either Dirt Rally or Serious Sam.

In no particular order,

  • SPAZ 2

  • SPAZ 2


and maybe
  • SPAZ 2



I have a galaxy to save from the Zombie infestation!

P.S. SPAZ 2 = Space Pirates and Zombies 2 from our friends at Minmax Games

The other thing about F1 2017 that has genuinely surprised me is how stable it is. And this is a Vulkan only title I'm playing on RadV (AMD 380X).

Kudos Feral. Linux gaming really is going places when we get ports like that.

Probably CS:Go with my routine.

First ; warm up with an arms race match.

Second ; play one or two rounds casual.

Third ; play competitive.

Talos Principle and Sphinx
...
and maybe some "games" with my girlfriend ;-)

Don't hate on me fellas, but I've been spinning the tires in Spintires: Mudrunner for the last week or so under wine. Both Spintires and Spintires: Mudrunner work flawlessly under wine, including multiplayer. Terrific game. Pity it's not ported to Linux.

I'll be going hard on HITMAN this weekend. I already completed the escalation with the cowboy outfit, I need to do the other two and the Patient Zero campaign.

I´ll probably be starting either "Observer" or "Layers of Fear" tomorrow, since I finally milked the last achievments from the "Everspace DLC".

I am playing ENEM :(

Hoping to try out Don't Starve Together with a friend this weekend, he's played it a lot and I've watched him a little but never felt like trying it myself until he gifted me it just this past week. I'll be going in with basically no knowledge of what to do, so it should be "fun" for him. :P

That and probably some more Human: Fall Flat. Such a fun game.
WorMzy 10 Nov 2017
I need to get a few episodes of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, and Skies of Arcadia: Legends recorded before I go away on holiday in a couple of weeks time, so I'll be playing those a lot this weekend. I might play a bit of Everspace too, and/or L4D2 which I haven't played in a while.

I'll play the game called "installing Unreal Engine on Gentoo Linux and get it to work properly". Let's see if I manage. ;-)

I will probably try to finish Mario Oddyssey and some Rocket League.
