Hi everyone!

I want to take a moment to share the exciting journey we’re on and the passion that drives us. Our game is being built by a team that is deeply invested in creating something truly unique. We're putting everything we have into it risking it all because we believe in the project and the vision.

From day one, we focused on what the community wanted. We initially set out to create a purely PvP experience, but after listening to feedback from you all, many players expressed the desire for PvE. And we heard you loud and clear! We’re going to deliver a PvE mode that will blow your mind bigger, better, and more immersive than anything you've seen before, including the likes of Ruiner and Ascent.

Some of you might be thinking, “I don’t like sci-fi,” or “Top-down games aren’t for me.” Well, let me tell you, you’ll love sci-fi, and I’ll open your eyes to the world of top-down gameplay. It’s a genre I’ve grown up with and I’m excited to share it with you. I believe in pushing the limits of what’s possible, and we’re doing just that with a team that includes some of the best minds in the industry.

We have a diverse team of about 20 talented people, each bringing years of experience from titles like PoE2, Diablo, Phoenix Point, Xcom, Company of Heroes, and Warhammer 40,000. We may not have big funding behind us, but we have something more important: passion, commitment, and the support of people who believe in the project.

We’re not stopping, and we’re not going anywhere. This game will not fail because of funding. We’ll keep going on our own energy, with the love and support of the community. If we don’t hit our Kickstarter goal, we’ll keep pushing forward regardless. Our mission is to make a game for the community, by the community.

The road hasn’t been easy, and we’ve faced many challenges along the way. But with the team we have, we believe in our product and we’re excited to keep building it with all of you. Thank you for being part of this journey with us. Together, we can make something truly special.

Please support us, share your thoughts, and let’s make this game the best it can be. We need your belief in us more than anything! https://www.reddit.com/r/POLYSTRIKE/

So I was playing on my ps5 using the same monitor. I had left my steam client open while downloading overwatch on my pc. When I finished a match on my ps5, i switched inputs back to my PC, and my steam client was switched to french, and cyberpunk was downloading, instead of overwatch like i had left it.

This Linux distro is a brand new install btw. I just installed it 2 hours ago.

I also enabled the firewall and set it to DROP. It is opensuse leap 15.6. I also had my controller plugged into my PC because my controller only charges while it's connected to my PC.

What could have done this? It's too many steps for me to accidentally have done it with the PS5 touchpad. Plus, the steam client needs a restart to confirm the language. BUT I did press the touchpad multiple times to check the scoreboard in overwatch. Did i just get very lucky and accidentally did this? I'm bringing up the touchpad theory because my controller works on the ps5 and the touchpad works as an input on my PC at the same time.

My steam authenticator is on. I also have 2 factor authentication and everything. Could I have a RAT? Or is it a far fetched idea? 🗿

I'm sorry if this is hard to understand.

For those interested here are some performance numbers when running FSR4 on RDNA3 (specifically on the 7900xtx).

In the tables below you can compare all the values between the different upscalers and the different quality levels. All benchmarks have been done on a 4K display so the quality presets results in the following resolution scaling:

Quality: 2560x1440 (1.5)
Balanced: 2259x1270 (1.7)
Performance: 1920x1080 (2)

Based on my knowledge in order to achieve optimal performance you need:

• The most recent mesa-git (changes got merged yesterday that should address some performance discrepancies according to DadSchoorse).
• proton-EM.10.0.23 or newer

If you use an older version of mesa-git you need to set radv_cooperative_matrix2_nv to false. I reported this in the following post (thank you Etaash for the information):
Even more FSR4 performance on RDNA3 in the future

Note: I haven't found any performance difference with current mesa-git so this part is most likely already obsolete.

So in order to showcase the performance improvements I have to use different Driver/Proton versions:

------------------ FSR4 before FSR4 now Proton proton-EM-10.0-20 proton-EM.10.0.23 mesa Mesa 25.2.0-devel (git-7b81c5bb78) Mesa 25.2.0-devel (git-6842a8179f)

System:

• CPU: 7800X3D
• RAM: 2x32GB (6000MT/s CL30)
• GPU: Sapphire Nitro+ 7900XTX, perf. BIOS, 100% power limit
• OS: CachyOS (6.15.3-3-cachyos), KDE

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Expedition 33:

Settings:

Epic preset (no film grain, no motion blur)

Mods:

• Optiscaler v0.7.7-pre12_20250624

Notes:

FSR4 performance runs about the same as XeSS quality while looking better. In fact it looks even better than 4K native (TSR 100% looks horrible in my opinion). FSR3.1 also looks really bad.

Settings:

Ultra preset (no frame gen, no DLC HD texture pack, no motion blur, no bloom)

Mods:

• REFramework
• DirectStorageOption
• Disable Post Processing Effects

Notes:

This game is getting bottlenecked by something else then the GPU (probably CPU) which pushes the numbers closer together. All upscaling solutions look pretty good in this game.

Mods:

Notes:

Performance went from horrible to bad. While it shows the biggest gain the performance is only eclipsing native at performance scaling. FSR3.1 meanwhile scales extremely well.

I'm trying to play Deltarune on steam, it's just not working for me at all, I am using GE-Proton10-4 in the run other titles option in Steam's compatibility settings. Whenever I try to open the game, I'm given, "Win32 function failed: HRESULT: 0x80004005 Call: at line 229 in file \Graphics_DisplayM.cpp" I'm on Linux, Ubuntu 22.04. Not sure if I'm stupid and am missing something obvious but I need help on this I spent like 24 dollars on this game i just wanna play it man 😭

From my understanding, 32-bit OS like Bazzite are going to be discontinued or something like that. In the off-chance that Bazzite does die off, what distro should I migrate to that's game-friendly?

I'm considering doing Fedora as that's what Bazzite was based around.

What's your take?

I have a physical copy of LEGO Creator 1998 that I used to play on an old Win XP computer nearly 20 years ago. I no longer have that computer and, since I bought a Steam Deck a while ago, decided to install it for old times' sake.

Right now I'm stuck with the Setup file. When I run it, it can't find DSETUP.DLL, but the installation seems to run fine otherwise:

The installation executable throws this error

The installation then finishes, but I get an ActiveX error when I open the game afterwards:

The error that pops up as soon as I start the game

I believe both of these issues are related to DirectX given the naming of the files in the game's CD, but haven't been able to find a way to fix these two:

LEGO Creator CD's file structure, I run the installer directly from Creator/SETUP.EXE

I had more issues, but they were fixed by the below:

- The installer depends on InstallShield, so i changed the emulated OS to Windows XP (also the same I had on the old PC).

- Two OCX files were not immediately registered by the installer: for this one I tried using regsvr32 manually, but had no luck with the tool. The last time I ran the installer with proton the issue went away on its own. This issue still shows up when I run it in bottles though:

The two OCX that could not be registered, they seem to be related to ActiveX

My question is: how can I run the installer with DSETUP.DLL not throwing the fatal error? I've tried inspecting the .exe files to find the path it expects the dll to be at (didn't see any path), moving the contents of the Directx folder to system32 (no luck either), using depends.exe to check if I'm missing any dll (SETUP.EXE is 16 bit so it can't be checked with the tool) and using winetricks to download dll files that came from DirectX, but none of these fixed the issue.

Happy to add any information that could help pinpoint the issue.

Hey y'all

I'm trying to install an old game called Recoil. I know that it SHOULD work, but the installer throws a hissy fit because it demands that I use windows 95 or 98.

How to do I get it to think it's on windows 98? I tried creating a bottle for it but I got nowhere.

Games like Monster Hunter World and Deep Rock Galactic keep automatically setting my headset to low fidelity mode to enable voice chat even when I have voice chat disabled. I will literally never want to use the mic on my Bluetooth headset, I have a separate mic I use when I want to voice chat, so I want to know how I can permanently disable low fidelity modes/modes that use my mic to prevent games from forcing me into them. I obviously have my headset configured to only use a high fidelity mode, such as a2dp-sink-sbc_xq, but the games I play ignore this and automatically switch when I start the game.

Attempting to run BTD6 on linux - I'm very new to linux.

Every proton version crashes on launch. I installed steam through the .deb file on steampowered.

Most proton games do crash but I'm only looking for BTD6 specifically to run (if everything else starts running too then that's a cool bonus :D)

Apologies if any of this information is not required:

One thing to note is OpenGL v: 4.5 Mesa 22.3.6 renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 15.0.6 256 bits)

I've uninstalled and reinstalled my nvidia drivers so many different ways. OpenGL is still trying to load nouveau and (obviously) fails, so it uses llvmpipe...

I didn't think for BTD6 specifically that would be an issue iirc it uses Vulkan - and other Vulkan applications can use my graphics card fine.

HELPPPPP!!!!! Is there a fix for this? My friend let me borrow his GTA San Andreas Platinum Hits copy so I can stream it on twitch since I never played it before. but for some reason, when I load into the game it doesn’t play the game audio while I’m on stream. My chat can only hear my voice, if anybody have an answer to why it does that you would be considered the G.O.A.T in my eyes!!!!🐐👀

I’m playing on the Xbox series X

I got gnome HDR running in other games, eg. Sekiro with Proton-GE 10.4 and the following steam run command:

PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%

Using the exact same, Resident Evil 4 Remake does not let me enable HDR in game setting. Any idea what it could be?

I'm asking here cause I have no idea where else to ask. And cause I use Linux to maybe there are some third party apps to help.

I have an issue with my mouse where I can't press more than 2 buttons at the same time. If I do, the inputs just don't register. But my mouse has a total of 7 buttons including the middle mouse click. It looks like a software restriction the developers put in for some reason. Is there any tool or software I can use to remove this restriction without having to buy a new mouse? I would really love it cause everything else about my mouse is perfect and I couldn't be happier. And even if I do buy a new mouse, there is no guarantee that I'll find one that doesn't have this issue for my budget (I don't want to buy those expensive gaming mouses everyone has)

Hey everyone,

Recently they have added to league a 2v2v2v2 game mode and some friends wanted to play with me. Thing is, I despise windows and it's bloat ware, I refuse to get windows. Do you all know if there is a way to play it without dual booting or anything similar? I really don't want windows in any of my disks. Maybe this is impossible but I thought it was worth a shot to ask you all. Thanks!
