Insurgency Gameplay On Ubuntu 15.10 (Native)
Insurgency has finally come to Linux! Albeit, it's still currently in Beta.
Expect all screen tearing to come from recording the screen with software. If I had a hardware based recorder like Magewell, I'm sure I wouldn't experience this kind of issue.
The gameplay experience is different from anything I've played before. I had a blast, and got to play with quite a number of other Linux gamers as well!

Performance is not really that good, considering it's a Source-based game. Many dips into the 20fps range right now for me. I'm certain it's better for Nvidia users. I do expect that Kazam had a role to play in this, but it's not the sole reason for the drops.
I used the open source Mesa 11.1 driver (RadeonSI) here. LLVM 3.8 with Kernel 4.2 for those who must know.
