I only see the "Format not supported" message on Chrome/Chromium.  In Firefox it always works fine for me.

Quoting: nonameTripwire should collect 30.000$ or more at kickstarter for porting ro2 to linux!

I would be willing to kick in some money for that.

They should start taking some sort of pre-orders for a Linux version, preferably via Kickstarter.

I am curious is you bumped your Planetary Annihilation up to Alpha, as it will start in 2 weeks.  Of course, probably Alpha will only be multiplayer because I think the AI won't be done to play against the computer until Beta.

The Heavy Gear kickstarter won't make it. It is only trending towards 21%. So it is irrelevant for Linux gaming since it is irrelevant in general.

Tripwire are using UE4 already?

No Tripwire are using UE3, I think Anon was trying to say that Heavy Gear is using UE4 as we are talking about UE3.

Yeah, I suspect so. Since it was immediately following our comments on UE3, it could be either. Never hurts to ask for clarification ^_^

Quoting: liamdaweThe game itself is odd, not something I think I will personally spend much time on.

You should, really. Just take it slow. It's not something you'll REplay, but it certainly is interesting..

Quoting: s_dAlso DRM-free on the Humble widget, apparently!

That's what I noted ;)

QuoteLittle Inferno the new game from the designers of World of Goo is now out for Linux if you check your Humble Store pre-order pages for it, it should list Linux.

Hehe.

There is a caveat there, however:  "Linux version is currently in progress, but will be ready soon."

Looks pretty fun and twisted, like WoG.  I enjoyed that game & it's art style, and Inferno looks like it's cut from the same cloth (although, a completely different gameplay mechanic).  It almost looks more story-driven than WoG was, which is a good thing for me.

Damn, you're right. It works fine on my 12.04 install (also 64-bit). So, an issue with 13.04 then... ah well.

I got the Universal OS Bundle yesterday, not a bad deal at all. =) Shame about the Humble Weekly, but I kinda expected it sooner or later. =(

Quoting: muntdefemsThe Humble Double Fine Bundle finished yesterday, having grossed moren than a million and a quarter dollars from more than 150,000 sales. Quite a respectable figure but it could have done better, some might argue.

Hey, how dare you reference me in context, you fiend you. :P

I can't tell you how much time these posts save me from having to scavenge about for Linux Gaming news. I truly appreciate it! Thank You!

Great! In the end that 95% became a full 100%. I'll finally be able to use the Desura key I keep from that bundle. :D

I can see the video just fine on Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit. I think I'm gonna wait a bit longer before upgrading... :P

About the game, I got ahold of a demo some time ago (can't remember where from) and I rage quitted it after being unable to get a minimum semblance of control of the ship/rocket/whatever that is... I just guess I'm not patient enough for this game. :S:

Quoting: HamishYou want us to trust you again Epic? Actually pay Ryan Gordon to release his UE3 port. Then maybe we can talk. Sorry, do I sound a little bit jilted? :P

Actually it was Unreal Tournament 3 not Unreal Engine 3 ;). UT3 was totally pants anyway.

Anybody else just get "Format not supported" on these Desura videos? Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit. Not much info on Google about this either. Weird.

@Rutger 
Thanks for looking into that. 
It's very much appreciated!

Quoting: liamdaweEarlier builds of UE3 did not support Linux where as newer builds do, Tripwire told me, will post up my short convo with tuem soon.

That'll be an interesting read. I'm still going to sit on the fence until I see something from Epic or hear back from the developers I've spoken with over the past 12 months who said they didn't have any options.

A cursory pass over Epic's site did reveal this, which I don't recall seeing previously, though it isn't explicitly referring to UE3:

QuoteUnreal Engine-powered games have shipped on Xbox, PlayStation2, GameCube, DreamCast, Windows and Linux PCs, and Macs running MacOS X.

Cheese's got a point really. Although I would be the first to jump at the opportunity to play a new HG game, my funds are rather low nowadays. Until more information is available about these claims 'tis better for me to wait and see what happens.
