How does Day of Infamy compare to games like BF2 and BF3 (gameplay wise)?

Gog has pizza tycoon. This is Pizza connection. Is it the same franchise ?

Quoting: NovenTheHeroIs DOW III more like the original (more traditional resource RTS) or like DOW II where you have like a small squad to work with?

It has some base building to make units, it's squad based and a bit like a MOBA. You have heroes you can spawn with enough hero points. I only played the tutorial and one multi-player match during the open beta.

You fight over "resource capture points" across the map and eventually have to take out the enemy "power generator".

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTGuys, obviously I know there're technically reasons for that. Still it's an attitude since the job of a developer is to solve problems. You got a problem that you need to solve by implementing it in code. I'm a dev myself and I know a few issues can be massive, but better have no port at all than a only partly functioning one.

I don't want to be separated from my friends regarding mjmtollaEr by devs because they decide cross platform multiplayer is not doable. Even though I prefer Linux at any time I don't want to force anyone to use a specific OS to play with me.

You make a lot of assumptions here. You also sound extremely immature about the problems of implementing such code.

We don't know any of the reasons here, but Feral have explained technical details before. As pointed out clearly by others.

It is nothing to do with attitude, i don't even know why you keep saying that.

There is however, a lot of stupid attitudes around here at the moment.

I will take a port that functions well but needs a multiplayer patch in future over no port.

So your comment is very wrong.

Ha if you are insting on that: If One have a chance to choose for begging , let it be an AAA title.

I don't care what you support. You come here making a post saying an indie game is shit so you won't "beg" for it to come to Linux. There are of course a bigger risk for a small developer to port a game to linux than it is for a bigger one.

QuoteQuake Champions is not self Vulkanized , it is DX11. Also it is a F2P title , so how can you expect to Feral make money on that?

Before that , we need Doom on Linux natively.

It will be using doom's vulkan engine part, so it must be opengl at the moment. And I'm pretty sure linux community would buy the full game as a support if Feral was doing the port. Zenimax has dropped support on linux in quake 3 and quake live, but we need at least one quake game on linux, as it use to be the rule under Carmack era. I'm pretty sure it would be easily doable as doom without denuvo can run as fast as windows.

Quoting: LeopardThan tell me Liam , what is "enough" term to them?

Whatever they need it to be. It will be different for every developer.

Quoting: LeopardWe are tiny, yes. But not for to beg for indie developer for Linux version.

Seriously, shut up calling it begging.

Quoting: LeopardI'm all okay for begging AAA games or similar huge games but if we start to hear enough request word from every developer , that won't be a good thing.

So to you, only AAA developers should be asked to make a port? Because who cares about great indie games right?

Quoting: LeopardLiam; if we let this thing going on. Every little to big developers will expect the same : Lick our ass for port of this game,maybe we can port it.

Seriously you have a terrible attitude.

Quoting: LeopardC'mon , nobody requested or at least with enough request nonsense; for DoW 3 and Shogun 2 (which they are huge) yet they're coming.

Because that is Feral's business model.

Quoting: LeopardYou can act like they're all equal but everything has a price and quality. So i won't beg for a non Aaa or non unique game.

Then don't, like I said. There's no need for such an elitist attitude.

If they're making AAA games they don't need to ensure they're not losing on it so to me this just doesn't make sense at all.

How can you guarentee an AAA game will sell good?

Look at F1 2015. It was an AAA and released for Linux but it didn't sell well both on Windows and Linux.

So how can you guarentee that DoW3 will sell good on Mac and Linux?
That game literally had no single player and focused on multiplayer.But multi is limited to Linux vs Mac. So what will happen?

I also want to note these games have their own engines , not Unity or UE4.

This is an investment and a risk. Even big companies has chance to screw up.

So your comment is very wrong.

They are not yet listed as Linux games, but through Serious Sam Fusion 2017 Beta available for our OS nonetheless: The Serious Sam HD games are also on sale, you can get all of them in a bundle for only 3.73€.

'Enough request'

Well , i'm not gonna beg for that shit. They're seeing us as beggars.

Then don't post, but drop the attitude. It is not begging, stop calling it that. It's perfectly natural for developers to want to see something when it comes to Linux. We are tiny compared to Windows, people need to stop kidding themselves.

Than tell me Liam , what is "enough" term to them?

That game is one of the little developer games and if they want to sell good they should have Linux and Mac in mind.

We are tiny, yes. But not for to beg for indie developer for Linux version.

I'm all okay for begging AAA games or similar huge games but if we start to hear enough request word from every developer , that won't be a good thing.

That is an investment and that is a risk. They want to ensure sales with acting like that.

I'm telling that developers ; when you start to develop a generic,not unique game like this. Ask for Windows users: Who wants that?

They will say: Fuck you , take your shitty game and put it your available places.

Liam; if we let this thing going on. Every little to big developers will expect the same : Lick our ass for port of this game,maybe we can port it.

Quoting: Kimyrielle

Spoiler, click me

Yes, right -before- Max rolled back time. The two weeks she spent with Max got erased from history a moment later, remember? She died in the bathroom. She did NOT spend any time reconnecting to her old friend and never grew as a person. The entire game DIDN'T HAPPEN.

Spoiler, click me

She knew that when she said it. Call it timelines are whatever, but it did happen to her and she, although she knew it would be "rewinded", considered it important.

- Because the ending invalidated every single choice you made in the game. No matter what you did, it's in the end all pointless. Nothing you ever did in the game mattered.

Quoting: EikeTo the best of common knowledge, Humble is doing well in distinguishing OS sales.

It is of course unknown if this also happens before they have Linux support ticked in their store.

Quoting: g000hDoes anyone know "if" I buy Shogun 2 on Humble (which is currently on Sale there) that Feral, the porters, will get their cut for a Linux purchase or not? https://www.humblebundle.com/store/total-war-shogun-2-collection

TW:S2 isn't really my sort of game, and as such I am very unlikely to pay full price for it. But getting it at a substantial reduction, sure, I can drop some cash and give a little support to a Linux porter.

To the best of common knowledge, Humble is doing well in distinguishing OS sales.

Quoting: Alm888Wow! What a huge stream of wishful thinking! No indication the game will even be on Linux, yet, some people already calling this "great news"…

Of course there's no guarantee, but at least we know that the developers are open to Linux ports and Feral has a connection to them. My guess is that Life is Strange sold well on Linux.
I'm optimistic on this one.
For reasons, not due to whishful thinking.

Yes, GOG can be very self-righteous (and generally pain in the you-know-where to deal with), sometimes refusing to publish games under ridiculous reasons ("The puzzles in you game are too difficult for our audience" or "Your game has too little gameplay" ). :(

Yes, "Developers" can solve problems. But Feral are Porting the release (not "developing it from scratch" ). They are not the ones who wrote the original multi-player Windows-specific code. If the original Developers change their Windows code to support libraries that allow multi-player to work cross-platform, then Linux and Windows can play together.

I imagine that Feral is looking into the possibility that the original Windows multi-player code can be re-written, so that cross-platform will work. But it is something entirely dependent on the original developers.

While "Made to Wade" is Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III? (Seriously? How?)

Have a look at this link:

Those are some impressive detective skills.

[quote=razing32]

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTIf the new engine is the same as the old one there is NOTHING Feral can do. It is relic and the engine's fault.
They can give you multi , you will connect and get immediately dropped. Do you want that ?

I don't care if Feral fixes there part or Relic. In the end DOW 3 is still in active developement so Feral should talk to them to fix things up. It's already a shame that the legacy games didn't fix but there's no excuse for a brand new game to spawn it with dead multiplayer on Linux.
