Downloaded to see what it's like on linux with an AMD card also to see if it would let me being on linux :S:

I know its a VP port but tbh it dont run bad. Been doing the campaign and so far seems solid. though it's only using 1 core like many other games seem to :(

Currently have it set on high @ 1440p averaging around the mid 70's. This is on the 15.12 prop driver on a 290x.

Anyone else had/having a go?

The game has cpu core load problems under Windows also, it has been improved.

Wondering how this game runs under Oibaf and my AMD 390x. I can't use the cat/crim drivers, not worth the downgrade.

There was a problem with it crashing when near land masses with the open drivers, but long time since last tested.

I tried it on my R7 370 with Oibaf and it worked fine. Some areas are a bit sluggish but the forest and other more open areas seem to perform okay-ish on low-med settings.

Wait, does it work better with Oibaf than with Padoka drivers? I'm using Padoka, and I have also tried Oibaf drivers and I get like 5 to 10 fps better in general with Padoka. Also Padoka has Opnegl 4.2, while Obiaf is at 4.1.
