Quoting: XzylI'm insulted this site never tests nvidia with the open drivers they're getting really good. Linux is about choice and openness and these Windows refugee clowns love to thump their e-peens about >60 fps or a 10~20 fps difference above it...Yes. Choice is good. Yet you feel personally insulted when people choose to use Linux in ways you don't support. Go figure...
Go refugees!

Quoting: GuestIt was supposedly near complete many months ago, and its foundation was on a complete API (Mantle). I don't believe this new announcement.I'm not in the least bit surprised. This is simply what happens when multiple large companies try to get something done together. Nothing happens quickly. And besides, I'd rather there's a nigh-perfect set of tools for validation and testing at launch to ensure a smooth start for the API. A month or two won't mean a thing in the end.
Edit:
Quoting: GuestI do hope that when it's ready, whenever that may be, FOSS drivers won't be far behind. An open standard isn't too open if FOSS drivers don't get a seat at the table during development.A proof-of-concept open source Intel driver has already been demoed months ago. And if AMD doesn't come up with an implementation in their FOSS drivers, you've really got to doubt their supposed priorities. NVIDIA? Heh.

Quoting: reaVerCan we please not brand this game as controversial? I don't think we should be sending the developers the hint that we're (in any way related) to feminists.WTF? The controversy surrounding this game has very little to do with gender equality. And please don't troll. GOL tends to quickly close any thread that devolves into a flamefest, and you very well know this topic is very efficient at lighting the spark.

I've never really gotten into fighters since SF2 on the Amiga. I do recognize how big of a brand this is though. So woo I guess.
What I really wanna see from Capcom is some Ace Attorney goodness. Fat chance, I know. :'(

It does seem like a very early release with tons of missing functionality. Go ahead and add your issues to their github tracker though. At least one guy seems to work on it very actively.

Quoting: pbthe thumbnails don't work and trying to install a game is futile.These seem to work for Liam? Maybe you're missing some dependencies or something.

A developer on Tesla Effect details why the Linux port never arrived

Thanks for your input on this. Makes it all seem a bit surreal though. If the Unity plugin was a third party solution back then, why would BFG have expected RAD to support it at all? And could BFG's contact at RAD have given them reason to believe that they were ignored due to not being big enough, or that Linux was simply not a priority? I wouldn't like to believe that they're simply making it up and trying to shift the blame.

Quoting: jeffatradWell, you guys could have dropped an email to any of us at RAD to ask about this.Welcome to GOL. Great to see another industry representative in this tiny corner of the intertubes.

Quoting: jeffatradRegardless, it had nothing to do with Linux. We're working on Linux debugging tools now in fact.Sounds great!

Quoting: ShmerlNever heard of Ohio Jack game :)Actually the game is Infinitrap. The thumbnail is a bit misleading. Don't know if the Funding Crowd covered the unsuccessful kickstarter campaign back in september. Seems the game was made anyway.

Stop releasing all these great-looking games. I can't buy them all. This is unfair. :'(

Quoting: wolfyrionDo you guys play with a controller,keyboard or a wheel ? :PDriving with a keyboard is a horrible idea. At least enable all the available assists if you do. Anything analog should do the job, although driving with a joypad might take a bit of getting used to if you're new to these semi-realistic driving games. A wheel is really nice (wish I had one), but not necessary.
I have tried to play a bit today and I have realized that I am a horrible driver :O
(I guarantee that this is not happening in real life! :D )
