Hey everyone, I really like playing rocket league but its performance is worse than on windows especially when loading the map. Every other game like roblox, minecraft, brawlhalla run better on linux except this. For some more details:
CPU: i5 6500

GPU: RX 480
Distro: Fedora workstation 43
RAM: 8GB DDR4
Launcher: Heroic games
Proton version: Tried 9.0-4 (best one so far), proton GE latest, proton CachyOS

Kernel: Linux 6.19.9-cachyos1.fc43.x86_64 (also tried the fedora default kernel)

Game scope and feral game mode enabled

I really appreciate any help or response :)

A new Wine merge request has been opened that is very interesting, as it could change the way Wine work with OpenGL to make it use Vulkan.

While it likely won't affect the ongoing Japan lawsuit between Nintendo / Pokemon and Pocketpair / Palworld, it is at least good news for game devs elsewhere.

Linux gaming has improved a lot, but the same issues still come up again and again: anti-cheat, NVIDIA on Wayland, DX12 weirdness, and the occasional "this game just runs worse for no obvious reason."

What is the one thing that still annoys you the most in 2026? Or do you think some of these problems are already overblown?

It just struck me. 5.33% of players on Steam are about 8 million active users. What are the companies with anticheat games waiting for?

Hi,

I got a Strix Halo PC a few months ago, happily installed CachyOS on it as I use it to run local LLMs and play some games. I have only been playing Overwatch and Farcry 4 so far, and I would appreciate feedback from other Strix Halo owners to see which games run well on that platform :

• in Overwatch, I get 110-120 fps in low details mode, QHD, DX12. I would expect more tbh, but I guess proton doesnt do miracles on that one.
• Farcry runs great at max details but it is quite old, so that is expected.

Any recommandations on games that run great on that platform ? Note : I'm not looking for compatibility scores, protondb is fine for that, I mean games that make good use of the CPU + iGPU architecture.

Thanks ! Cheers

Two games i'm running through steam have suddenly reduced their resolution options to about six, the highest being 1536x864.. Monitors native 1080p isn't there any more.

Running Cachyos on an asus tuf dash f15 laptop.

So far i've gone into the steamapps/compdata folder and deleted the games folder there but it didn't change anything. Also tried a different proton version but that didn't help either.

Whats causing this and how can i fix it?

I’ve been getting into PC’s and Linux lately. I’m aware of issues with compatibility and kernel level anti-cheat and that VM’s won’t fix the issue with kernel level anti-cheat but can the other issues with gaming on Linux be worked around through a VM reliably? I’ve heard it can take some beefy hardware from people who have tried to game in a VM, so I’m also curious if a ryzen 9600x, RX 9060 XT, and 16gb of ram is enough or will I need a second GPU, more RAM, or a more powerful CPU?

So the Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta cards were dropped from support a few months ago, and that happening has made be concerned it may happen for Turing as well in a few years. Anyone know if there are any official plans for this, or at least predictions?
