Would love a copy. Good luck everyone!
Realistic gun simulation FPS 'Receiver 2' announced from Wolfire Games
15 December 2019 at 12:11 pm UTC
Quoting: OrkultusI wonder if VR support will happen?
According to the store page on Steam:
QuoteDoes Receiver 2 have online multiplayer or VR support?
No, Receiver 2 is designed to be a single-player experience played on a monitor with a mouse and keyboard.
Maybe they'll change their mind, though.
Remember the SMACH Z handheld? It's apparently going to be at E3 this year

It's a little bit late to the party. Times are tough with Steam Link Anywhere around. Why purchase an expensive new device when you already have a smartphone or tablet?
The Swords of Ditto is a much better and more interesting game with Mormo's Curse

Doesn't work for me either. Starts up, but hangs on the intro screen and sometimes when it gets into the main menu it hangs when I click on anything.

Quoting: da_habakukare the loading times fixed? i tried it on a free weekend and loading times between missions were horrible on a modest xeon. no other game was loading so slow.
Same, even with the game being on an SSD and stuff. Made me not get the game.

Quoting: KristianDoesn't Valve already have their own anticheat solution, VAC?
Yes, but not all devs decide to use it: Using it binds your product to Steam and sometimes the principles of VAC (delayed bans to catch as many cheaters as possible at once, ..) don't suffice the devs/publishers goals of fighting cheaters.

Many players even demand BattlEye, EAC, PunkBuster or whatever, because they think it's more efficient. For example the Counter-Strike pro players community ESEA has their own seemingly rather invasive anti-cheat solution to combat cheaters.
First-person base-building survival game 'Volcanoids' is making great progress on a Linux version

Quoting: silmethThey could, if I understand it correctly, hypothetically use the ARB_gl_spirv OpenGL extension when the driver supports it, to provide pre-compiled shaders for OpenGL renderer. That would speed up loading for users with newer drivers, while those without this extension (older GPUs and driver versions) would stay on compiling GLSL shaders during loading.
Not a GL savvy but, wouldn't also help the local shaders cache? I mean, it builds once but use many, so this slow loading times may only happen on the first run (like in other games).
If that's the case, Steam's shader cache management could be helping too, couldn't it?
Valve just put out another (smaller) Steam Play beta version

The issue with games using .NET launchers not starting isn't solved yet, is it?
Cities: Skylines - Industries expansion announced, releasing October 23rd

Quoting: MaelraneCan all of the dlcs be enabled in one game?
Yes. Slight exception might be Snowfall, because you can only play in always winter mode or no winter at all. Other stuff like trams from that DLC is available everywhere, though.
