Men of War II out now on Steam with Native Linux support

Remember when SimCity did this crap. And some modder removed the always online check in a couple days after release. Pretty funny as the developer was arguing about how it was too hard and would take time....

To be fair the Developer have mentioned their working on offline modes. BUT its something they 100% should have done before release. Now they get to join all the other developers who released games with BAD features and loose good-will launch money! Congratulations, you gone f'ed up!

Always online hey..

I'll wait for a cracked and patched version without that feature, either from the developer or whoever.

NVIDIA switching to open kernel modules by default in future driver update for Turing+

Quoting: TuxThePenguinI've heard of 10 (30) bit colour being available now.

It's in experimental, but I get worse color in Wayland and certainly when HDR is enabled. So with it needs work or plasma/wayland/linuxHDR needs work to support NVIDIA better. I do not know which it is.

Men of War II will be online-only at launch but an offline mode is in development

Umm, so I play single player with online people? This is what Sim City did, forced everyone to login for the single player experience.

Well if they enable support for [takes deep breath], CUDA, DLSS, DLSS3, DLSS4, FrameGen, HDR, 10bit colour, VRR, GSYNC... did I miss any of their proprietary crap? oh right PhysX stuff. oh and HDMI2.1.... LONG LIST

Playtron give a bit more detail on the Linux-based PlaytronOS and their plans

This a SteamOS remix or they trying to make their own? I don't see reason to make one from scratch which will have limited support, unless they base it on ARCH and use that.

HELLDIVERS 2 sees over 130K bad reviews on Steam as Sony double down

PSN could have avoided this by just introducing a separate client for PC users that didn't have region restrictions. A place holder so to speak to bridge the gap until they can do it properly instead of forcing PC users to link to a PlayStation console exclusive service!!!!

UK Government replies to petition about requiring publishers to keep games working

Governments needs to force them to include a Offline and/or peer2peer connection mode that is independent of the always online component.

And for those saying some games its impossible! Keep in mind World Of Warcraft got community made private servers! Yes THE COMMUNITY made that happen not Blizzard! So they can easily and quickly do it!

HELLDIVERS 2 will soon actually require a PlayStation Network account

I don't really see the reason why everyone who never plans to have a playstation needs now make a PSN account to play the game bought on steam. But apparently it was in the fine print somewhere.

is PSN store coming to PC? then that would make some sense.
