Dying Light Major Patch Released, Still Abysmal On Linux

Well it's complete garbage on a AMD gpu. :(

Well least it start I suppose

I've set mine to all options to off/low even dropped the rez down to 1280x900 , Still unplayable outside.

4790k
290x
16Gb
SSD

Stock clocked.

I went against the grain and installed it in windows(I know...)
1440p all Max/On bar the Nvidia bits, draw distance middle.
90 ish ! That's outside too.

I don't expect *nix to match that but ...
I know AMD is bad performance wise under nix compared to nvidia but I will say that I feel its the game/dev's on this one.

Well the good news is now us AMD GPU guys can play! (Patch 1.4 released today.)

Down side is even on a 290x + 4790k the performance is erm, whats the word... Crap!

Thing is. I not convinced its the GPU/Driver that's at fault.

Edit, They have disabled the steam overlay it seems. No idea what fps is

Quoting: STiATNever played BL2 or The battle for Wesnoth, but 0AD and Civ5: well earned.

There's a reason why BL2 won ;)

Seriously, get it. Presuming it your type of game that is.

Only tested the Talos principle 2 days ago, If first impresions are anything to go be I think it will be epic. The graphics are stunning too. Performance seems good as well on the AMD card I have(290x)

Egosoft's X Rebirth Actively Being Ported To Linux
13 January 2015 at 11:58 pm UTC

Yea! About time!!!!.

Sunk many an hour into the LGP port. Stopped after getting a amd card as it failed to start. When egosoft redid the x3:r port started to play again via steam, as well as X3:TC/AP. X3:R is still my fav.

ROCCAT Ryos MK Pro Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Reviewed

Can't fault the roccat stuff, Mrs got me a XTD (2013) for my birthday, then got me a iskufx to go with it at xmass(2013) :D

Ok, I hinted a bit by pointing out the driver support plus looking at reviews

Just updated Mageia rpm with the help of one of their forum contributors as he has a XTD too( he did the initial rpm). Works real well, Have only a few buttons configured(There's bloody loads) Handy in borderlands and what not .

Treated my lad to the ryos MK glow iirc and a Tyon(spelling) this past xmass .
Weird looking mouse to me, but my lad loves it. So suppose that what matters. and yes he runs *nix too :)
His only gripe is it don't change colour like mine :D . Well I have to have something different don't I :P

Metro 2033 Redux & Metro Last Light Redux Launch On Linux, Sorta (UPDATED)
19 December 2014 at 12:15 am UTC

Wasn't being snappy Mohandevir, just don't feel its a distro problem as such, especially as other games are running fine.
Going on the steam forum posts it seems to be AMD in general :( Steam post here

Could be fun, going to splash out on the new civ game. Wonder what that will run like. Should be fine being a Aspyr port. Not sure if it's my cup of tea though. But Linux support and all that!!!!
