NVIDIA == NVIDIA proprietary driver
Nouveau == Nouveau Gallium3D driver
If the game manages to work with Mesa, it will likely be painfully slow with Nouveau due to re-clocking issues/lack-of with the newer cards that would be needed to run the game in the first place.

I'm willing to bet that this is the case. I'm assuming they don't want to divert development resources away to do more extensive testing, and it would be wise to avoiding saying too much if the testing was superficial or brief. Likely done with the latest Ubuntu LTS, which I believe is mesa 12.

Or maybe they do test it, but, whatever distro they target has an older version of the stack?

Issues are good, as issues can be fixed. Look at what Deus Ex did to RadeonSI. Just keep them coming, devs, OSS drivers may end up being good drivers.

This reminds me of all the feral-no-amd-support desasters some months ago. Apparently Feral learned how to communicate better now and even supports AMD now and then. What baffles me is that Aspyr did support AMD with older games. So they regressed to a Feral-a-year-ago-state...
And how do you know they haven't talked to AMD? Just not in public.

sounds like Aspyr just did not test with amd hardware. If they have, why do they shoot their own foot? Just tell us what works, what not, what was tested, what not and everybody is happy. They should know how to communicate techical stuff with the pc community.
