Going off topic a bit but however
EA To give a speech at uds

origin for linux ?

I just hope that all of this talk will lead to the games industry making some sort of move to linux. Gaming is the only thing keeping me dual booting and I really wanna let go.

If origin comes to linux they will port all(most anyways) there games, because it would be pointless to have just a client
They have only a few games on origin

Steams have millions of games and they really only sell the games .

EA origin actual make them

I was so far gone from Windows that I just stopped gaming when UT3 failed to materialise on Linux.

I'm a bit confused there. Runs in the default browser. So all that is in the USC is a bookmark?

Are they WebGL or running using something like that Unity3D framework?

Just "installed" it. Required me to enter my Ubuntu SSO details.
After install it then proceeded to open up the browser with
http://alliances.commandandconquer.c...ign=cca_ubuntu
Then had to sign in with my Origin account.

It is just one of their Play4Free. It is WebGL but pretty crap quality. I am quite afraid of it being just a way of making them jumping on the micro-transaction bandwagon.

bpb101 · 11-05-2012, 01:21

last question is the most important i would say
from this.
