The update removed support for 21: 9 (2560x1080) aspect ratio. This resolution is no longer available in the options.

Guys check the linux version cause it's totally unplayable. There's a huge lag on the menu, with the mouse and even with the videos and sound. You're butchering a great classic game guys please, do it right or just left this great game alone. (Using ubuntu 20.04 with nvidia video card)

[Andytizer]

Playing on M1 Mac - intro movies very laggy. Characters cannot move in-game either, unplayable!

Hi everyone,

please contact our technical support: [e-mail]

after I played the first mission, all seems fine to me until now. (stable 60fps in all situations)

Manjaro Linux
AMD FX-8350
Nvidia GTX1660ti
16GB DDR3

Vielen Dank für die Unterstützung der neuen Plattformen, aber wie sieht es eigentlich mit einer Reihe von Bug Fixes aus? Die alten Cheats wären auch sehr hilfreich bei der einen oder anderen Mission. Außerdem waren sie Teil des original Spiels und ein Remaster kann ja wohl nicht weniger bieten als das original. In diesem Zustand ist Commandos 2 HD keine gute Werbung für Commandos 5. Schaut mal in Richtung der Age of Empires Reihe. DAS ist mal gekonnte Werbung durch gut supportete neue Versionen der Vorgängerspiele.

Hallo @Jarvis,

vielen Dank für dein Feedback.
Wir werden es an den Entwickler weiterleiten, können allerdings keine Versprechungen machen.

Cheers

Since its release in Linux it has been worse than emulating the game with proton.

My PC:
R7 3700X
RX6800

1-3 FPS it's ridiculous

Ein weiterer Monat ist vergangen... Könnten die Entwickler/das Studio, wer auch immer bitte wenigstens sagen, ob es jemals irgendeinen Patch für irgendetwas geben wird. Ich frage schon gar nicht wann und was. Nur ein kleiner Lichtblick, dass das Spiel nicht komplett tot ist in der Entwicklung.

They took a year late in releasing the linux version, but they did release it ... should I recommend Patience?

Well, patience is not the problem. It looks simply not that the game is really supported. The Linux version was announced and with this version you can reach a new market. So from this point of view this version make sense. Simple patches with bug fixes and small features (like the old cheats) are not paid by the customers. But if a game (or software in general) is really supported sometimes you get communications and updates for this issues. I understand that support costs money but you have to think about for what this HD version of commandos 2 was released. The main reason is not to make only a remaster but the aim is to make the community hungy for the upcoming firth part of commandos. But this idea works only if this remaster of part 2 is really good and has only very few bugs and a good performance. If this is not the case a remaster could damage the upcoming game. So, it is a risk to make a remaster and the only way it could work is to invest really much work ( = money) in the remaster to make the community happy. After that you can earn the money with the new game, not really with the remaster. It's clear that 20€ is not a to low price for good support. So, you have to have a view on both games at all. Tha's why I hope the devs/studio will really start to communicate to reactivate the community because in the other case Commandos 5 could be a financial desaster not important if the game would be technically great or not.

Do not worry, I did not intend to defend them, since their departure I have been asking every day more annoyed about their departure in Linux, which is why I bought the game and I risked losing the money-back guarantee ... and not only did I lose it, but as it took more than a year to keep their word, I had to use it with proton, a game that had to be native,
and I had to play it for a year emulating it with wine. very disappointing.

But it is even sadder to check their catalog and see that they have many more titles in Linux, then there is something that I do not understand,
fired the staff and hired monkeys? Or is it that your managers are so inefficient that they don't know how to manage the project they advertise? so much suit for so few lights.
