I bought the GOG version a few weeks ago for nostalgia's sake. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it's aged, though it took a bit of tweaking to set up a modern control scheme.

2 problems :
- The mouse works for the left-right axis only. There's supposed to be a mod to make it go up-down but I didn't bother.
- In fullscreen, DOSBox turns off my secondary screen which is a little annoying.

Personnal rule : If there isn't a playable Linux demo I'm not backing it.

If they mean to deliver a year from now (august 2018), dev is probably pretty far along. Let's hope they have cross-platform tools.

Quoting: grozamoreiOnly type of mp we have is async (riding vs ghosts). So if you expecting real-time mp, sorry - we dont have it.

Oh well. It's not a big deal for me anyway and ghost-chasing is still fun at parties.

Thanks for the reply!

Looks good! Trials Fusion was a lot of fun on Windows, and I have fond memories of Motocross Madness so I'll definitely pick this one up. No multiplayer though?

Quoting: mrdeathjradd PhysX support for borderlands 2

I discussed this with someone from Aspyr on Reddit a while back, they can't do it because it would break cross-platform play. The version of Physx that supports Linux is more recent than the one in the Windows version of the game, so cross-platform coop wouldn't work anymore, unless Gearbox went back into their old code and updated the Windows version with a newer version of Physx... They wouldn't go to all that trouble just to give eye candy to Linux gamers.

QuoteWe have several original IP's that we will be bringing to the platform in 2017

What exactly do they mean by "original"? Stuff they will be creating from scratch, or existing franchises that just haven't made it to Linux yet?

I'd instinctively say Hitman as well, there is a mission in Paris and it's being worked on by Feral if I'm reading SteamDB right.

EDIT : There's just been a massive update to a Mac and Linux branch called "cheetah_ioi". Maybe it'll come out on the Jan 31 to coincide with the physical release of Season 1?

Maybe it's fixed in the full game, but the Steam demo doesn't seem to handle multiple screens properly. It doesn't always start on the same screen, the cursor is captive even in windowed mode and the game does funny things when you try to alt+tab.

Excellent! I'll definitely pick up a copy. It seems the Linux/Mac beta is open, too?
In the SteamDB branches:

Quotemac_linux_test | Help test the mac and linux releases!

and there's no lock.

Can someone confirm this?
