Garry is a scumbag, aside from the fact that he won't support linux.

But Garry's Mod has linux support, but it's a shitty port anyways. Runs better in wine.

Really?

It works perfectly for me (except for a small issue with checkboxes when you want to make a listen server, but that seems to be upstream).

What's your graphics card? I'm on a Nvidia GTX 660, proprietary drivers, works great. I used to have AMD and it was barely playable at best, no matter which drivers I used.

If you search the Garry's Mod Steam forums you'll get 455 entries(it's even worse if you search for Mac) with a majority of people reporting crashing, and unplayability. I wonder why no one is playing this on Linux... I would have bought this game a long time ago if not for the fact that every other update seems to break the Linux build.

This. I bought Rust because it looked fucking awesome, but it runs like shit on Linux. It's no surprise that nobody is playing it.

Garry has a history of being a bit of a tool where Linux is concerned. And, in fact, a bit of a tool in general. He's another Phil Fish waiting to happen.

I spend most of my time on Xubuntu and have yet to get a release of Rust that was playable. The windows version works just fine when I boot into Windows 8.1. They clearly do not run regression tests on all platforms before releasing. I'm sure the devs are using my playtime on Windows to justify the neglect.
