No, they use the SteamOS icon for Linux now. I've seen lots of people confused by this. The Steamplay logo is just the words "steam play", the SteamOS logo is the jointy thing. , , , , , , , , , , `' (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) \ \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) ''`>-,--”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---- ,'.*''`

:D >I don't currently have a windows installation Good lad :Y And yeah, we can use in-game voice chat, which isn't bad. And that way you won't get all my game noise as I have no noise cancellation and hate headphones. Might be worth setting up a Discord room too though for any possible future gaming. I'll do that now. https://discord.gg/0q3T0560WOsRVSH8 There. , , , , , , , , , , `' (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) \ \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) ''`>-,--”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---- ,'.*''`

I don't currently have a Windows installation (on my Pi or mobile). I meant to ask about chat. I don't have a mic to use. Me

Did y'all have a game? I played it (L4D1) all afternoon in single player mode. I still really, really suck. :-/ ---- "American football is when a bunch over over paid American sports people frightened of being hurt strap on a ton of armour to play a game of rugby"

Irritatingly hard to find out what actual graphics chip it uses. So annoying when they just say "Intel HD graphics". But yeah, it seems to be one of the older GMA chips. I was assuming it would have a HD3000 or 4000 :C You might be able to get it playable by reducing the resolution right down (thereby just giving the card less to do). As to whether it's worth playing at that point... , , , , , , , , , , `' (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) \ \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) ''`>-,--”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---- ,'.*''`

I think if it's the first gen Core i5 mobile (520m etc) then it is bog standard Intel HD rather than 3000 or 4000. A

Nowhere on the laptop does it say anything other than Intel HD Graphics. Not helpful. I tried dropping the res to the lowest, 720x258 or whatever it was, and it was still slow. I'll have to venture into my attic to use my desktop computer. Not been up there for months :S Me

The computer in the attic idea went well then! I imagine it's been freezing lately. A

Haha, yeah, not as good an idea as I thought it was going to be. I think it was probably October I went up there last. Not the cold that's stopped me though, just can't be bothered. Me

Can you play it in a window rather than full screen? ---- "American football is when a bunch over over paid American sports people frightened of being hurt strap on a ton of armour to play a game of rugby"

Would that be likely to make any difference? I think the graphics on the laptop is just too rubbish to play it :( Me

I used it a long long time ago to play games on rubbish graphics. Might be worth a shot. ---- "American football is when a bunch over over paid American sports people frightened of being hurt strap on a ton of armour to play a game of rugby"
