I bought Mad Max on a sale some time ago, then tried it using Mesa 13 and the radeonsi driver: it ran like crap! Very low FPS, stuttering, totally uplayable on my PC. I'm aware that the game is not supported on my GPU (is clearly stated when starting the game) but I did not think it was so bad.
Some days ago I upgraded to Mesa 17 and tried again Mad Max: this time the game run very well! Is finally perfectly playable! The FPS aren't that high (I think in the order of 30 FPS) but there's no stuttering, action is smooth, I can play in FullHD, the controls are responsive. To sum up everything was in place to let me enjoy the game, and in fact I'm liking it a lot.
I haven't tried the game under Windows, but I suggest anyone owning it to upgrade to Mesa 17.
Nothing changed instead with Shadow Of Mordor: it still remains completely unplayable, running at 1/4 of the FPS I can get on Windows on the same machine, plagued by stuttering and unresponsive controls.
Well done Mesa developers, thank you for all the hard work you're doing!
