Phoronix: Mesa 18.2.1 Going Into Ubuntu 18.10 For Fresh Open-Source GPU Drivers

It was a bit nerve-racking seeing Mesa 18.1 still in use by the Ubuntu 18.10 "Cosmic Cuttlefish" in recent days, but fortunately it looks like the feature freeze exception is secured and Mesa 18.2 is on its way to landing...

That game dies before the menu screen appears on anything newer than Ubuntu 16.04 regardless of Mesa. Some are thinking that the game have problems with the new version of glibc. Anyway that game is buggy as hell, even the PS4 have game breaking bugs so it's not the port itself that is bad but the original game.
