Project Cars New Trailer & A Poll On Platforms
By Beamboom, 2 April 2014 at 11:57 am UTC
This poll has to be severely skewed based on what fan sites out there who happen to have linked to this poll so far. That WiiU domination is a joke.
Still, it's really cool to see SteamOS being almost as strong as the PS4. Let's enjoy that while it last. :)

Quoting: AnonymousI can't imagine anyone would want to buy this on Wii U? Seriously?

At least I am glad SteamOS is actually beating Xbox one.

Linux needs a decent Cars game, and If this game is released in SteamOS, I will buy it sure.

Well I streamed a bit on twitch last night for Linux folks and it worked well, only annoying thing is the auto-save is a bit rubbish and i lost all my progress :(
Took some configuring to get it into windowed mode too, but once that was done performance was utterly flawless.

I'm not sure to get it because they "ported" it to Linux, or thread it like any other Windows game, because I could run it in Wine...

I am actually looking forward to other classics ported with Wine, wasn't TopWare saying something about that? There will be GOG.com in few months so I guess I'll be happy if I'll just wait a little bit more :)

Quoting: titiI want a copyright were people get forced to give their code to a official "registry" and in return they get the rights of a copyright of their software. After some years ( 10? or 20? ) the source should be free and available to everyone!

That's my feeling too. For RPGs and adventure games, unfinished versions can spoil the experience. I'd wait for the release.
By Shmerl, 2 April 2014 at 1:08 am UTC
Quoting: adolsonI'll be waiting for the final release (if not longer). I really wanna play it (hence why I backed it), but I haven't ever really enjoyed playing unfinished games in the relatively-recent era of ship-now-patch-later, let alone when they're purposely released unfinished. But at least they're labeling it honestly nowadays.

Eador. Masters of the Broken World Is Still A Sore Spot For Linux Gamers

I'm getting more upset about the games that do have a Linux version available but it is so buggy that the game is virtually unplayable. Don't tell me you have a Linux version if it's not at least at the level of polish of the Windows version. I've bought several games on Steam in large part because they claim Linux but then am completely frustrated because major bugs destroy the playability. (I'm looking at you Crusader Kings 2 and Battle World Kronos)
As an aside I must say that releasing games prematurely seems to becoming more popular than ever. I'm not against this but I wish they would use the "Early Access" labeling so that I know what I am getting into.

Thats why I especially hate closed source! All closed source things are doomed to get lost in history, because there code gets "lost" over the years. One day the owner has no more interest in it and throws it away.
The binarys are nothing more than a shadow.
I want a copyright were people get forced to give their code to a official "registry" and in return they get the rights of a copyright of their software. After some years ( 10? or 20? ) the source should be free and available to everyone! It's like patents which also ensure that knowledge does not get lost ...
If they don't register their code their software should not have a copyright protection, they are on their own then. THIS is something I would really like to see.

Carmageddon: Reincarnation's Jason Garber Answers Our Questions On Their Linux Support
By Mnoleg, 1 April 2014 at 7:40 pm UTC
Ok, I'll admit there is a little difference because LAN multiplayer is more difficult to configure (specially when a VPN is needed) and it's usually restricted to people you know. On the other hand, it's faster and more reliable (specially in the long run).
I would like them to release a single DRM-free version and just disable the steamworks? features when unavailable. I'm afraid they have a different plan though.

I wonder if this isn't an April Fools joke as well. How long does it take to make a wine port? 10 minutes, including the time it takes to eat the pizza?
I'm not complaining, I just find it odd that they took half a year.
Also, didn't the SS2 sources get leaked recently, or was that just a rumour?
