    I didn't have the time to actually play it.
    The resolution was fixed at 1920x1200 (native).
    Hence, the game is slow.
    Maybe there are some config files around to change it manually.
    What in the world have these guys done?

    Windows requirements: Video Card: NVIDIAŽ GeForce 8800 or ATI RadeonŽ X1900, 512mb graphics memory required.

    Linux requirements: ATI Radeon HD 6750 / NVIDIA GeForce 320 / NVIDIA GeForce > 9600 or higher, 1024MB graphics

    The difference in graphics requirements is huge, and the game hardly displays anything remotely graphically intense. I bought this assuming is would run on my Laptop ( RV620 i.e 3000HD ) to play on the train on the way to work but its far to slow even on the latest Mesa 9.1 drivers. Anyone know what in the world these guys have done to require such greater graphics card compaired to Windows. The game only displays a map with a few things on it, its not like is a FPS.

    Isn't the GeForce 9600 just a re-branded 8600?

    Perhaps it tries to calculate bitcoins while you play?

    I'm not sure about this but the Radeon cards are miles apart. Also 512mb of ram vs 1024 mb something smells very half arsed about this port.

    Edit: See a comparison of the Nvidia cards here look to be a considerable difference http://www.hwcompare.com/4393/geforc...e-9600-gt-1gb/

    I have a 9600 gt with 512 mb of ram and I have no problem playing the game.

    By the way, if I remember correctly what the reviews were saying when the card was new, the 9600 was often compared to the 8800.
