That's one game that runs pretty darn poorly on GNU/Linux, too.

There are plenty of other games who actually do run very well on GNU/Linux.

There's actually a pretty huge catalog available.

http://store.steampowered.com/linux#tab=TopSellers

You may think you know anything about the availability of GNU/Linux games but you clearly don't. If you did then you would be aware that about 60% of all the new games released on Steam are available for all three platforms (Windows/MacOS/SteamOS=Linux).

GNU/Linux gaming is already a reality. You just haven't realized it - but you will. Because all we need is more Windows worms and exploits like wanna decrypt and the nations will be forced to accept the GNU World Order.

Correction: LInux users can handle complex operating systems. Just not complex games. And while I understand that the good people of /g/ look down on gaming, what I don't get is why they would rather sit around whining that other people like them, as is so often the case here.

Linux is not for games. That's apparent. Sure, there are games for it, some pretty good, but it's not much different than being able to play Doom on a calculator. You know it's not meant for it, it won't be worth a fuck, and it doesn't effect how the calculator is used by everyone else, but there will still be sad little shits sitting around punching in 8008 and complaining that someone out there is having fun and not forcing themselves to be sad as well.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

>>60373353
Harsh truth. The most vocal Linux advocates on this board less sad, jealous lives.

>>60369505
it is on linux and it runs pretty well but the stuttering is pretty bad. is it the fx-6300 and rx 470, or just linux? the stuttering isn't as bad on the open source driver and latest mesa as it is with amdgpu. i find vsync makes the stuttering a lot better, there must be something weird with the way linux gpu drivers are queing frames thats causing percieved stutter maybe?

>>60373349
Pretty much. There are games intended for and ported to linux, but they're shit at best. I use a desktop for Windows/Linux dual boot. I have Dying Light installed on both of them, and it runs like shit in Linux. With very few exceptions, games are better on Windows. There's really no point in fighting over it, or pretending that Linux has comparable offerings. If you want to be productive/program, use Linux. If you want games, use Windows. And stop bitching that another person isn't using a solipsistic anon-approved operating system.

>>60369505
link? searching for "rocket family" gives me no obvious answer

>>60373447
Little bit of column a, little bit of column b

I stick to the open source drivers when using AMD hardware. Shit sucks, but gaming on Linux is still new and DX still dominates the market. Curb your expectations.

>>60373548
Good for you. I have nearly 200 games on Steam. less than 40 are available on Linux, and the ones that actually run on Linux have frame rate issues at minimum. Some don't run at all. And my rig isn't a fucking /g/ toaster. I'd love for more games to be available on Linux, but I'd settle for a little optimization for the ones that already are. 38 games in my library that play great on Windows and are like alpha test releases in Linux.

Classic doom, doom 64, and doom 3 already work native on linux. the new DOOM game can be played in wine because it supports vulkan.

Is GPU passthrough a well developed enough thing yet? Last I recall checking in it required major amounts of hacking and cobbling together to even approach levels of playable.

could possibly be shader compilation
some newer games have lots of complex shaders, which take a noticable amount of time to compile

the latest version of mesa implements a shader cache, which helps a lot

thanks man. another question, if anyone else is on ubuntu using oibaf/ using the latest open source drivers, why cant i turn off vsync? id like it on, yeah, but sometimes i want to see just how high my framerate can go but it always stays at 60 no matter what unless i play a game that uses sdl. try xonotic for an example of what im talking about. native games without sdl stay at 60, but sdl games go past that. ive tried making 20-radeon.conf and disabling tearfree there but it didnt help, so far nothing has. note that this isnt an issue with the closed source driver

Yes, we know. Gaymes are wangblows only because dx is proprietary.

ubuntu, its the most stable. if you want the highest framerates (and vulkan in wine compatibility) use ubuntu 16.04 or 16.10, if you want the latest bleeding edge stuff thats maybe 20-30% slower (going by memory dont hound me for having wrong numbers) then go for ubuntu 17.04 and find a script on github called "ukupgrade" to get the latest kernel and get the oibaf ppa and install all the latest mesa shit.

there should be minimal difference between them provided the "critical paths" are kept up to date
for games, you want at least linux and mesa (or proprietary driver) to be up to date
you will also want to consider using the latest wine (or even wine staging), when using that
there's usually some way to get the latest versions of those separate from the rest of the system

youre welcome my dude

I mean lets get real for a moment. You install windows 10 in about 45 minutes and for most linuxes its about the same but remember. Biggest base linuxes are about 1 gigabytes or 2 while windows 10 can be more than 5 gigabytes of data. And what happens when you open them. On linux there are about 2 functional buttons, 3 are nonfunctional and in those two buttons there are some pictures to play with. Maybe slide down or up. On windows though, you feel like a god. Its professional its fast, its all functional. You have a godlike user interface. The thing that linux does not have. You have those two buttons in linux, but you still search google for codes to write in terminal. Linux is free because its not worth a penny. Nobody would sell a paper without taking the money. Just not sure why people still buy android while windows phone does 10 times more. Trust me. When you work with windows you know some genius ground breaker dedicated himself to give you an operational os

That's a whole lot of not an argument.
There is literally nothing, purely technologically speaking, that is stopping Linux from being a gaming platform.
Most graphics cards are supported, AMD much more so but still.
Vulkan is literally the future as it is much easier to write engines for and it is cross platform, and it is free and open source.
Linux is much more efficient with resources than Windows is, which really helps with Gayming.
All the other memes that video game playing man toddlers spout are bullshit.

I'm basically wondering which games work well on GNU/Linux that are fun and enjoyable.

>>60374523
From the benchmarks I've seen we're not missing something by Microsoft keeping DX proprietary. I've got the distinct impression that NVidia cards perform worse on DX12 vs the older DX11 and AMD cards perform pretty much the same on DX11 and DX12. Vulcan on the other hand seems to perform better on Intel, NVidia and AMD: And the vulcan support in MESA git is getting pretty darn good.

Have you looked at some of the Twitch streams lately?

And from what I've seen they usually make a lot more money than those who actually strip on other free cam sites.

if you try to beat the record scores, you need to win on the "single run"
that is you don't flip the whole card deck on the top left because that causes points reduction
if you play like that almost all games will fail pretty quickly and you just try and wait for the "ideal" card spread
like this you can play 100 games a day

>>60383113

Still the best RTS in years and it's open sauce and works on Linux.

>>60382904
It still has more good games than most consoles even without counting emulators and compatibility layers.

But muh gaymer idea is of course that Windows has *even more* games and nvidia / amd may have invested more effort into GPU drivers so some games run 5 fps faster.

>>60383195
Linux exclusive??? Why???

>>60383200
Army Men RTS will always be my shit.

Linux has improved a ton with gaming in the past 10 years.

But Windows is still king, my guess would be Windows has 10 times the library of Linux.

If you have modern hardware and want to play all the newer games, you want to have Windows.

>>60383165
I do have windows installed with many games there as well, just don't care enough about games to use it that much.

I've used Linux almost exclusively for 12 years or so, and I'd never use windows for anything I didn't have to.

While linux might be a pain for most general users, for software development windows is by far the worst except for microsoft specific tech.

>>60383200
I don't mind playing at 5fps slower, just so long as I can play any game I like, which I don't think Linux lets you do does it?

>>60383289
Neither does Windows, it doesn't cover Android, console etc. games. And no specific version can run all older Windows or even DOS titles natively; there will be emulation and that generally does work just as well on Linux.

But Linux sure has less games than Windows. It still has more good games than pretty much any specific console and enough decent games to play for many years.

>>60383291
> lanparties
You also did that? We did dozens and it was great fun. But that was just our circle of people.

Wasn't like TA was hugely popular around here, at public LAN parties we were usually the ones that had to get other people to play TA. Also always fun.

It's not just nostalgia though, Zero-K is still good for competitive and cooperative play. (Most other Spring RTS games I'd recommend more for just coop... they're mostly kinda wonky in competitive play).

I don't think you can play anything on DX12 yet. I think wine has support up to DX 11, but I don't even have hardware capable of playing modern games so I haven't checked in awhile.

>>60383462
You can go filter Steam for Linux+SteamOS and realize there were ~100 games released for these since the beginning of this month.

Windows still has a few more games, but it's not really a "struggle".

>>60383430
>You also did that? We did dozens and it was great fun. But that was just our circle of people.

Yeah same here. My parents have a party room in their cellar that was perfect for lanparties.
We used to fill it with couches and garden tables and invite friends and friends of friends and so on. There was room for about 15-20 people.
Super comfy.

The public parties were more for FPS games around here.

I've used GNU/Linux since Windows 98 was popular and for me Windows is way more trouble. I can't do anything in that useless joke of an operating system. This is why I think it's great that Valve / steam has brought gaming to GNU/Linux in a very real way.

There were essentially no games 3 years ago. Now there's plenty. Sure, there are some missing titles. Don't care. We're in a far better situation than we were not that long ago today.

If you're a NEET "hardcore gamer" manchild then GNU/Linux probably isn't for you and you should stick with an xbox or something.

Same is true on Windows.
GNU/Linux has 25% of all games on Steam, 42 of the top 100, and six of the top 10.
Its still missing some of the big AAA devs, which depending on your attitude towards them can be viewed as just making them easy to boycott.

Combined with emulation and compatibility layers you may not be able to play everything on GNU/Linux yet, but there's no shortage of good games to play.

Wine's problem is that the main devs on it primarily make money off the Mac version and make their coding decisions based off that.

So Nine and other similar projects that implement full speed D3D9 support on top of low level Linux-only APIs get rejected in favor of slow D3D9->OpenGL 4.1 wrapping.
Their excuse is that Nine only really works on one vendors hardware, but then for their D3D11 work they use OpenGL compatibility profile which essentially locks it to Nvidia.
