It's not a big message, so I copied it here over. To me it is notable that they specifically address a Linux Gaming distribution called Bazzite, to correct a bug/mistake on it caused by the game. This note is also under the "General" headline, so they take it serious. I am really really happy about this.

Greetings, Rivals!

We're thrilled to announce that the upcoming patch drops on February 13, 2025, at 09: 00: 00 (UTC+0)! This update will also be applied without server downtime—so you can dive right back into your epic battles as soon as the update is live!

Here's a look at what's coming in this patch:

All-New Costumes

Mister Fantastic & Invisible Woman - 60th Wedding Anniversary Combo Bundle (Store release: 2025/02/14 02: 00: 00 UTC+0)

Mister Fantastic - The Life Fantastic (Store release: 2025/02/14 02: 00: 00 UTC+0)

Invisible Woman - The Life Fantastic (Store release: 2025/02/14 02: 00: 00 UTC+0)

Bug Fixes

All Platforms

General

  1. High-end computers running the Bazzite (Linux) system were mistakenly tapping into low-quality UI resources. Fear not—this issue has been rm'd!

Maps and Gameplay

  1. Resolved an issue where if you scored KOs during overtime and the battle concluded at that moment, the KDA tab might not have shown its true colors. Now every victory is honored!
  2. Corrected an issue where the Yggdrasill Path cart icon in the Convoy tutorial was a bit off-target. Your heroic journey can now continue with clarity!
  3. A heroic sweep has been performed to fix various map collisions that could trap players or allow them to slip through walls unexpectedly. Your path to glory is now cleared!

Hero Bug Fixes

  1. Doctor Strange's Portal Power: Fixed an issue where Doctor Strange's portal could be interrupted during the placement phase if an allied Loki transformed into him. The Sorcerer Supreme's magic now flows uninterrupted!
  2. Jeff the Land Shark's Bubble Trouble: Resolved a quirky situation where Jeff's bubbles could, in rare instances, sneak past enemy healing gates into the spawn room. No more bubble bath break-ins!
  3. Iron Man's "Armless" Attack: Addressed a tech malfunction where Iron Man's arm models could go missing after activating Armor Overdrive in certain rare scenarios. The suit's back in action—fully equipped to blast into battle!
  4. Hulk & Wolverine's Team-Up Trouble: Fixed a little mischief where because of their Team-Up Ability, Wolverine's Berserk Claw Strike could, under certain situations, be activated during Feral Leap. Now, there will be no more mix-ups!
  5. Hulk's Charge Hiccup: Resolved a Team-Up Ability bug where if Hulk was hit by Namor's ultimate when charging to throw Wolverine, he wouldn't be thrown afterward. Now, the power duo can deliver a one-two punch without any interruptions—Hulk smash, Wolverine slash!

Im really excited to see mainstream games patching for Linux. :)

[–] Brylant@discuss.online 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Why should I care about a game I'm not even playing? Go post this on a specific sub.

[–] Vodulas@beehaw.org 9 points 1 week ago

lol, what? This is a general gaming community. Also, that implies people can only post about games you are playing, which is such a wild take

[–] thingsiplay@beehaw.org 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So we are allowed to post in this sub only games you are interested in? How about unsubscribe or shutting up?? Just a suggestion.

[–] millie@beehaw.org 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

To be fair, it is kind of odd to post patch notes. All sorts of games get new patches all the time. If people start making a habit of posting every set of patch notes for the games that they play, it'd very quickly become a substantial portion of the posts here.

Personally, if people were regularly spamming patch notes I'd probably eventually either block the community or block the poster.

[–] thingsiplay@beehaw.org 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Why do people click the post if they are not interested? The title says it all. And I don't post update notes usually, its probably my first time here. I posted this because of some noteworthy thing about supporting a specific Linux distribution, as explained in my post.

[–] millie@beehaw.org 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Because it's populating my feed?

[–] thingsiplay@beehaw.org 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Well I'm not going into all posts I dont like and tell them that I'm not interested into. Do i? If you dont like post, dont click. Or do not use this sub forum. Because its not just for you.

[–] millie@beehaw.org 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

So.. No one should ever give any feedback on what kinds of thread anyone else posts? Not sure I agree with that.

[–] thingsiplay@beehaw.org 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You did not just give feedback, but suggest me not posting here. No. I will post here. About games you are not interested. Just dont click them, dont be annoying.

[–] Vodulas@beehaw.org 1 points 3 days ago

You have the original commenter confused. millie just said if you were spamming patch notes, you'd get a block

[–] Vodulas@beehaw.org 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That is a much more reasonable take, for sure. I would do the same, and probably go one step further and ask mods to step in.

In this case I don't think OP is spamming patch notes, they just found this on interesting.

[–] millie@beehaw.org 2 points 6 days ago

Agreed.

This is actually why I stopped using Startrek.website, though. One of their mods posts constant updates about STO. Honestly, I'm pretty sure he's employed by STO.

Game Crashes

While we are at it, the game crashes my system after some time. It was even worse a week ago, when every second game crashed. Its so bad that if it crashes, then I have to hold the physical button on my computer; which is obviously not healthy. It happens more often in competitive. I'm on a modern computer with AMD+AMD system, using EndeavourOS. Other people have issues too and they have other PC specs, even using Windows. So its hard to say what causes this issue. Here is one tracking issue for Proton: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/8300

[–] CaptainBasculin@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

I have a different issue. For some weird reason after launching Marvel Rivals, Steam itself bugs out and stops showing its window. This specifically only happens on Marvel Rivals and requires me to restart Steam to fix it.

On AMD+AMD system too, using SwayWM on Pop OS.
