Steam: News
- 100% bugfix/improvement update for the folks living that Preview life.
- I salute you.
- Beta is annoying enough at times, I can only imagine how much a crapshoot those Preview updates must be.
- Stream your Playstation HDR games to the Deck.
- And probably have a better experience than the Portal.
- If nothing else, than the ability to Stream it from outside your house if you can handle the latency.
- PS5 for your Deck has been a thing for a minute thanks to Chike4deck.
- This brings Vulkan powered HDR.
- Those of you with a retro LCD Deck can download it… and pretend!
Steam: New Games
- We have goobers at home?
- A 2D platformer battle royale that’s priced to sell.
- Online PVP.
- Even comes with a level builder.
- Early access.
- 2D Stumble buddies with the emphasis on player created levels.
Steam: Game Updates
- Still getting updates.
- That’s impressive!
- You can get scurvy, you curr!
- Broth issues.
- One of the PC features announced is support for the Steam Deck.
- Also, they brought back the paid MOD store.
- FEATURE: Support for Steam Deck.
- The fuck does that mean?
- Yes, making sure the new revenue stream for your 11 year old game is working on the Deck will probably be a solid ROI.
- And no, the irony is not lost on seeing a very Linux hostile Bethesda support the Deck.
- No mention of Linux or SteamOS anywhere.
News:
- People in our Discord were very quick to point out the comments.
- Where have I seen those before?!
- ComBase used Arch, Nobra, and POP.
- 5 games were benchmarked against Windows 11.
- Cyberpunk 2077, Forspoken, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Starfield, and The Talos Principle II.
- Win11 was 1.6fps faster in Ratchet & Clank making it the better all-round OS.
- 5800X + RX 6700 XT Nitro+.
- All AMD laptop with Linux.
- RDNA 3 graphics and total power draw of (CPU+GPU) 120W, that’s almost 10x the Deck’s reported drain rate.
- But it has a keyboard.
- And the price starts at €1700 which has me running for the damn hills.
- You want CPU core pinning?
- Very nice of Feral to continue to support GameMode in its official repo.
- Major kudos to all the community contributors
- Press X to continue □
- Press image to continue is best continue.
- One of the neat tricks rolling out for SDL3.
- They would like some SVG art sent their way.
- And now you can have SDL for both input handling on the input and output!
- Yearly code freeze to bundle up the new major release.
- New VKD3D and better Wayland support.
- Couple of game fixes come packed with the RC.
- Fixed graphis in NFS Most Wanted running in wow64, Castlevania edgelords of shadow rendering glitches, Crimson Skies freezes, and
- Games that require bcrypt DH support now work as well.
