SteamOS Update: Easily discover the games you can play
28 ОКТОМВРИ 2014 - CHRISTEN
We’ve heard some feedback from users about shopping for and playing games on SteamOS. It can be tricky to determine which Steam games are best-suited to your setup, and the matrix of elements which contribute to this equation is ever-expanding. What OS am I running? What type of input am I using? Do I have an active In-Home Streaming connection?

Each of these details can be used to help guide you to the content that’s most relevant to you right now. So we’ve updated the Big Picture Store and Library interfaces in our most recent SteamOS and Steam Client Betas to take advantage of this information. The system detects your current OS, input devices, and the OS of your remote Streaming host, if one exists, and it uses the information to dynamically present you with the content you want to see.

When navigating Big Picture mode with a traditional gamepad, the Steam Store is now optimized to showcase controller-friendly games. When browsing the Store in Big Picture mode on SteamOS, Linux, or OS X, the Store displays content designed for your OS. When you have an active In-Home Streaming connection to another machine, the content designed for its OS is also displayed.

Our playtests have shown us that this guided shopping experience works best for most users when browsing our catalog from a device that can’t always run everything available on Steam. Steam has thousands of titles on offer, so it stands to reason that users would prefer an interface which helps them easily find the ones they can play “right here, right now.”

For those SteamOS and Big Picture users who want to keep a broader eye on all New Releases, Specials, and the like, we’ve got you covered too. We know many Steam customers play games on multiple machines, often with different operating systems and input devices. So we’ve also created an advanced option that lets these users quickly swap between viewing all content and locally playable content while shopping. You’ll find this under the new Store Settings in Big Picture mode and SteamOS.
