In a new milestone for the Steam Deck, Valve has finally made official the necessary drivers to be able to install a version of Windows to it's portable gaming PC. For now, the user has to accept that if he wants to install Windows, the device wipes storage since dual-boot (multiple OS on one machine) is not ready at the Steam Deck bootloader level. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1675200/view/3131696199122435099 #Windows #Valve #SteamDeck

Hoping that drifting problem doesn't explode on the Steam Deck's analog sticks, iFixit confirmed to The Verge that their repair and replacement kits will be available starting this summer. Since last week it has been reported that some Steam Decks are not paying attention to the neutral position of levers, to which Valve responded with a patch that strengthens the precision to define the neutral position. No major complaints have been heard since the update so that is a respect for many. https://www.theverge.com/2022/3/4/22962087/ifixit-steam-deck-replacement-parts-summer #SteamDeck #iFixit

Coming as a surprise given its openness to making Destiny 2 as accessible as possible, many noted that Bungie's support page for the game was updated indicating that there is no support for Destiny 2 on the Steam Deck. In fact, the article claims that any attempt to sneak into Destiny 2 directly is eligible for an account ban. Apparently, Bungie hasn't worked with Proton (Valve's Windows game interpreter for Linux) and the only exception according to language is that there is an entire Windows environment on the device. It's not really known if this also has to do now with the condition that Bungie will become a subsidiary of Playstation soon, but technically, when Google Stadia and Xbox Game Pass Cloud support comes to the Steam Deck, it shouldn't. be a problem. https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/360049024592-Destiny-2-Steam-Guide #Destiny2 #Bungie #SteamDeck

Siendo una sorpresa dado a su apertura de tener a Destiny 2 lo más accesible posible, muchos notaron que la página de soporte de Bungie para el juego, se actualizó indicando que no hay compatibilidad para Destiny 2 en Steam Deck. De hecho, el artículo reclama que cualquier intento de colar a Destiny 2 de manera directa es elegible a un veto de cuenta. Al parecer, Bungie no ha trabajado con Proton (el interpretador de juegos Windows para Linux de Valve) y la única excepción según el lenguaje, es que exista un ambiente entero de Windows en el aparato. Se desconoce en realidad si además, esto tiene que ver ahora con la condición de que Bungie se convertirá en una subsidiaria de Playstation próximamente, pero técnicamente, cuando el soporte para Google Stadia y Xbox Game Pass Cloud se de para el Steam Deck, no debería ser un problema. https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/360049024592-Destiny-2-Steam-Guide #Destiny2 #Bungie #SteamDeck

Two novelties with Steam Deck and that is that Valve indicated that the little support for the controls of the PC Gaming portable does not work in Google Stadia and Xbox Game Pass Cloud is due to fixes that will arrive soon at the software level. Good news to game-as-a-service believers. On the other hand, the company indicates that the problems reported on the Steam Deck subreddit, about joy-drifting at an early age, are due to the need to correct the precision algorithm to define the neutral position of the levers. The company immediately urged users not to notice improvements after the update, it will be offering a replacement kit (being the debut of its association with iFixit). The problem is that it is VERY LIKELY that there are no parts yet. https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/t4o91g/valves_response_on_my_stick_driftdeadzone_ticket/ #Valve #SteamDeck #JoyDrifting
