The weekend is almost over and a nice week full of news is about to begin. Before it does, let's get talking! What have you been playing?
Brigador: Up-Armored Edition has been sucking up a lot of my time recently, thanks to a new update coming out with a bit of new content. I have so much love for the destruction in this game it's unreal! This is where I have honestly spent most of my time, stomping on everything and identifying explosive areas to set off fun chain-reactions from a shot or two and just watching everything go to hell. Love the customization too, plenty to unlock from vehicles to pilot to ridiculously powerful weapons.
Since Abandon Ship got a Linux beta recently, I've also been putting some time into that while chatting to the developer to help ensure a smooth release later this month.
I also helped the developer of Elteria Adventures identify a bug preventing the upcoming Linux version from launching, so that was fun too.
What have you clicked on lately? Do give us your recommendations in the comments.
Quoting: buckysrevengeI played some Doom (using GZDoom) and A Short Hike - great light hearted game!That's a coincidence. I haven't been playing much recently (I keep firing up Steam in the background - becuase it takes ages to load - then getting distracted and never actually starting any games), but I did feel like a bit of Doom earlier in the week. For some reason, GZDoom isn't working for me right now, so I tried Doomsday. Wow. That thing has a nice frontend. Not so keen on the graphical “improvements” (although they can be tweaked out), but it feels like a professional product. Very impressive.
Quoting: DraconicroseI've actually been playing The Witcher 3! I finally have a computer that's able to handle it. I'm so pleased it runs so darned well in Steam Play. I'd never tell it wasn't a native game if I didn't know.So true. But say goodbye to your free time until... oh, I don't know... Christmas? :)
Quoting: coryrj19951And also playing around with The Dark Mod a little.What do you think of the Dark Mod so far?
Quoting: emp64Arma 3 through ProtonSo what can you do on this one at this point? Doesn't anticheat prevent MP?
I thought I already got the basic down, but after watching tutorial in YouTube (the part one from 22 videos), I just realize I don't even know how to read and use map properly

I wonder if someday that feature will be possible on Linux.
Quoting: Patola4) City Car Driving - tuning it to work correctly under proton,This is on my list to try. There are a lot of great car mods made for this. I'm also sure my (pre-driving age) kids will love it...
Quoting: Patolatrying to play with people from the GoL telegram groupWhat's the best Linux group online to coordinate matches for various games?
Quoting: PatolaCity Car Driving - tuning it to work correctly under proton, sent a solution to the language problem to github and protondb. Works great, bought it to my wife too, it works with force feedback both on the G29 (mine) and G27 (hers).Thanks for your English language fix - I was able to get City Car Driving working on my rig too!
Also played a bit of native Rocket League with Liam's earlier posted fix and Fallout 4 with sound tweaks for Steam Proton.
See more from me
