Valve's Newest Controller Design Looks Solid
8 January 2015 at 11:46 am UTC

Quoting: KallestofelesIf only they would release it... I'd buy the controller immediately.
As strange as it sounds, I have never gotten my Logitech Chillstream controller properly working in linux. (manjaro xfce, ubuntu, mint, kubuntu) It uses the same xbox drivers as the original xbox controller. Always there is either incorrect mapping (which can be forced to be replaced via cli) or the games have just freaked out and remapped the controller to hell, making it unusable. I just hope that when this hits the market, the linux support would be 1st class for the controller.

Weird, I have the exact same controller, but it works perfectly for me. (Manjaro)

I had a problem for a while with it, but then found that what was going on is that my Microsoft wireless keyboard was being detected as a game controller and messing with the Logitech. So I replaced the keyboard and it just works now.

Patagonia means "large foot" - so, what has a large foot that likes to stomp on small studios till they go splat? Yes, you guessed right... Electronic Arts! They're porting something from EA.

"Aptenodytes forsteri" ... forsteri - sounds a bit like Forrester... as in House Forrester - which you play in Telltale's Game of Thrones - maybe?

I have an alternative idea. If you can afford it, buy the game at full price. This way you support small developers whose work you enjoy.

Not an option for everyone, I understand, but it's always nice to think of the devs.

Signed,
A dev. :P

Wasteland 2 Is Selling Very Well, What A Shocker
25 September 2014 at 11:09 am UTC

Quoting: xaviI'm not sure if buying Dragonfall or Wasteland II.

I readed that Dragonfall is too much linear, but this doesn't bother me.

Any recommendation?

Thanks

Get Wasteland 2 AND Dragonfall Director's Cut :)

Dragonfall is linear, but there's a lot of variety in how the game plays out depending on your class choices and other choices in-game.

I feel the same about people who post comments like yours.
