Title: Tremulous 2 For Linux
Post by: Jaroth on January 27, 2013, 03:33:47 AM
Many of us are using linux, so i dont care if im going to pay a lot of bucks, but what do you think if you make the game in LInux too

Fedora, Arch, Ubuntu and all stuff like that xD

Tell me what do you think :)

Please read the forums before posting.
But to save time:

1) The engine does not support it
2) The developers won't port it (I mean, they have enough to do already)
3) Linux is not a gaming platform. Someday someone will accept that. I already see many games for Windows that do not run natively on Mac, so it will be even longer if at all before Linux gets a real spot in the gaming franchise. For now it's just little pet-projects.

Well, it's quite a shame jaroth that they won't port this game to linux.
Maybe you can create some sort of virtual environment with windows on? :)

Jeez.

If you really want a linux port of T2, I'm sure the devs would be glad to add it to the list of kickstarter perks for around a $40,000 donation.

Enough already, lol.   ::)

3) Linux is not a gaming platform.

- has caught Blizzard's eye... 2013 will be the year that "at least one of their very popular titles will see a release for Ubuntu Linux." - http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTI2ODE

- Valve Begins Listing Linux Requirements For Certain Games On Steam - http://games.slashdot.org/story/12/12/07/182217/valve-begins-listing-linux-requirements-for-certain-games-on-steam

-  'Join the Beta' promotion on the homepage of Steam suggesting you try Steam for Linux - http://www.geek.com/articles/games/valve-starts-promoting-steam-for-linux-to-windows-users-20130121/

Yeah, Steam, Blizzard, what they know when experts like poster above (Gunther) had spoken.

Steam games are being released ONLY for 12.-something/newest version of Ubuntu. That already cuts out many Linux users.
Games are in concept and beta for the newest and easiest operating distro. A huge step forward, I see. We will all be playing on Linux in 10 years at this rate.
