Linux World Domination and Steam Machines Delayed Until 2015
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The gaming community is anxious to get their hands on the new Linux-based Steam Machines from Valve, but it seems that the launch of this console hybrid is being delayed until next year.
|
||||
|
||||
Valve is not a company known for its punctuality and it looks like the upcoming Steam Machines will definitely fit the profile. But what are these Steam Machines everyone is talking about?
|
||||
|
||||
The company announced only a year and a half ago that they were launching the Steam for Linux client, and a few months ago Valve released SteamOS, a Linux distribution based on Debian that will power a console / PC hybrid. It will try to rival the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in the living room.
|
||||
|
||||
The only difference is that Valve is thinking about this console model a little bit differently. They want to have a console that can be upgraded with new parts and that is built by numerous third-party companies according to a set of specifications, which are not very constraining.
|
||||
|
||||
To make things even better, Valve is working on a new controller that will revolutionize the way people play games on the consoles, especially for first-person shooters and strategies. Unfortunately, as you can see, this is a lot of work and the proposed 2014 goal is no longer viable.
|
||||
|
||||
“We’re now using wireless prototype controllers to conduct live playtests, with everyone from industry professionals to die-hard gamers to casual gamers. It's generating a ton of useful feedback, and it means we'll be able to make the controller a lot better. Of course, it's also keeping us pretty busy making all those improvements. Realistically, we're now looking at a release window of 2015, not 2014.”
|
||||
|
||||
“Obviously we're just as eager as you are to get a Steam Machine in your hands. But our number one priority is making sure that when you do, you'll be getting the best gaming experience possible. We hope you'll be patient with us while we get there. Until then, we’ll continue to post updates as we have more stories to share,” [said][1] a Valve representative in the Steam Universe discussion group.
|
||||
|
||||
This can indicate a number of problems that need to be solved, beside the fact that the Steam controller is nowhere near ready. It's very possible that their operating system, SteamOS, is not prepared to take on such a huge task. There are still problems with the drivers and it will take a long time to fix them.
|
||||
|
||||
The AMD support is rather poor and Valve really wants the Steam Machines project to be a powerful competition. The biggest problem is probably the price, which is high at the moment, as it surpasses PS4 and Xbox One by a lot.
|
||||
|
||||
Valve and the companies that are building the consoles probably need more time to get the prices down and to improve the final quality of the product, hardware and software-wise. They also need more games under their belt, so postponing the Linux domination of the world by another six months, into 2015, may not be such a bad thing.

Linux World Domination 和蒸汽机推迟到2015年
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
游戏社区急于期盼 Valve 发布的基于 Linux 的 Steam Machines(译注：一个基于Linux的控制台游戏机)，但是看起来这个产品会推迟到明年发布了。
|
||||
|
||||
Valve 并不是一个守时的公司，看起来即将到来的 Steam Machines 发布正好符合公司的风格。但是大家都在讨论的 Steam Machines 到底是个什么东西？
|
||||
|
||||
一年半前该公司宣布推出 Steam Linux的客户端，数月前 Valve 发布了SteamOS， 基于 Debian 的一个控制台和PC混合的 Linux 发行版。该产品将和 PlayStation 4 和 Xbox 共同争夺家庭市场。
|
||||
|
||||
唯一的不同是 Valve 对这个控制台有些不同的想法。他们想使得控制台可以升级大量第三方公司开发的组件，这些组件符合统一的标准。
|
||||
|
||||
为了使得游戏体验更好，Valve 正致力于开发新一代的控制台，该控制台将刷新用户在控制台上玩游戏的体验，尤其是第一人称射击和策略游戏。不幸的是，可以想象得到，这是个艰巨的任务，2014年发布的目标已经无法达成了。
|
||||
|
||||
“我们正在使用一个无线原型机进行现场测试，测试用户包含铁杆玩家、业内人士和休闲玩家。我们收到了海量的反馈，这意味着我们的控制器会开发的更好。当然也搞的我们忙于修改所有的改进。现在来看，我们正在计划2015年发布产品而不是2014年。”
|
||||
|
||||
“我们和大家一样非常期望 Steam Machines 能尽快拿到手。但是我们首要保证的是一旦你拿到手，你将得到前所未有的游戏体验。希望大家能和我们一起耐心等待。在那之前，我们将继续发布更新如果我们有更多信息的话，” Steam Universe 社区里的 Valve [发言人说>][1]。
|
||||
|
||||
这可能意味着需要解决掉一些问题，但是 Steam Machines 远没有完成。很可能他们的 SteamOS 操作系统并没有准备好应付这么艰巨的任务。驱动程序也有些问题需要较长的时间去修复。
|
||||
|
||||
AMD的支持太差了，Valve 确实是想使得 Steam Machines 项目成为一个有竞争力项目。最大的问题就是价格，将会比 PS4 和 Xbox 高多了。
|
||||
|
||||
Valve 和控制台厂商需要更多时间去降低成本，提高产品和软硬件的质量。他们也需要更多的游戏进驻，所以将 Linux domination of the world 推迟了六个月，推迟到2015年，这也许不是件坏事。
