It features large-scale battles across land, air, and sea, and has hundreds of different vehicles that players can pilot. (When did SteamOS have it's last update, anyway?) Perhaps valve could/should have taken a page from Microsoft's playbook and actively promoted it and working with devs developing for Linux/SteamOS.War Thunder is a popular military-based massively multiplayer online game from Gaijin Entertainment. Originally it was Ubuntu 12.04, wasn't it? And/or SteamOS? But in the first case they never updated it and in the second it never left beta, I think. Though I'm grateful for everything Valve has done for Linux gaming, the one place where I feel they've dropped the ball is in creating and maintaining a standard Linux for Steam gaming. Quoting: Lord_PhoenixI watched an interview with the producer (I think) and they said they are not really investing into linux, because while it works somewhat it's fine, but no major investment/improvement planned because linux is such a mess. I love everything about Wayland, except that it doesn't play nice with Nvidia - unless that's changed recently. Maybe you peeps just need to get with the times? :P Works just fine here on Wayland from what I'm seeing, except for the fact that it doesn't launch from Steam and you must fire it up manually. Quoting: SamsaiYup, the problem seems Xorg specific. You can download War Thunder for Linux direct from the website or Steam. Update: 20/11/20 - the workaround to launch directly from Steam is no longer needed, and the Steam Overlay now works with it too. Right click the game -> Properties -> Set Launch Options… and then enter that. However, if you add this as a Steam launch option it makes it work for now to run directly from Steam: They still need to fix it launching directly from Steam, as of this date you need to manually run the game / launcher. Update: 19/11/20 - all black screen issues appear to be solved! The game performance seems massively better than when it was using OpenGL. Hopefully they will fix those quirks soon because it stops it being playable for a lot of Linux users. Apparently the game works well on the newer Wayland display server. Additionally, I've seen that if you're on the xorg display server, you're likely to see a black screen whenever the launcher or game is in focus.
For starters, it seems in my own testing it no longer runs directly from Steam, instead I had to run the launcher directly from the folder. So it sounds like the same system a lot of other free to play online games use.Ĭurrently, they're still working out some of the major kinks in the Vulkan renderer and the update has caused quite a big mess on Linux. They also announced their own Battle Pass system is coming, which will be a Seasonal item you can unlock items for free on or purchase it to access everything from it.
