There is also a flatpak for this if any linux homies are interested https://flathub.org/apps/info.beyondallreason.bar
I thought it was outdated at first (because last updated 8 months ago) but that is just the launcher which is actually the latest version. The latest actual game assets are downloaded by that launcher.

The game seems quite well optimized and the benchmark runs perfectly for me on a 1070 :)

I've been running the Windows version in WINE but the flatpak may be the way to go for ease of use

Ive clocked up 16h since writing this comment. I forgot to eat :D

This is such a good game. It might honestly be the best RTS that exists right now for online multiplayer.

My friends and I have been playing it for a while, it's fantastic.

Never heard of this game, may check it out, thanks!

Been playing this for like half a year off and on (mostly off because I'm not that good!) - it's a great game. For those like me who find RTS to be toxic, especially to newbs, there's room for you here. I also recommend following thebrightworks on youtube. He has daily gameplay reviews, some meta insights and advice and hosts weekly gameplay with a friendly group of followers.

WintergamingTV on YT is also really good content.

It's weird how the missing comma changes the meaning completely. #stayInSchool

Another comment on here talks about a flatpak. Maybe give that a try.
