Used GE-Proton10-2, had no issues other than shaders taking longer than usual to build. Anti-cheat seemed to load up fine with no issues and played 3 rounds without issue on maxed settings.

Game crashes when the Graphics API is set to DX12
Many skin previews and Animations in the Shop/Menus do not show up on regular Proton

Loading is extremely slow if you are running it off of an HDD
Just install it on an SSD.
gamemoderun %command% -dx11

Minimal to no tinkering needed. Install it on an SSD don't be dumb like me and trying to run the damn game on an HD

Testing with an RX560 was running considerably worse than on Windows, being basically unplayable.

gamemoderun %command%
Runs perfectly fine as before the update that broke anti-cheat. Now everythings works nice.

Doesnt Start due to Anti-Cheat Issue
Game Stops Launching after its Anti-Cheat Program starts.
Maybe because I have a 7900XTX I have no fps or any major bugs with this game.

As people said, a update at 05/29/2025 made the game stop working, but as of today, it came back, working with no problems again.

gamemoderun %command% -dx11
Some times the FPS drop to 15 ~ 19 fps in the begining of round only when using the primary weapon

after today's(31/05/2025) update the anti-cheat works just fine contrary to the problem of " NeacInterface.dll Initialization error 1" that the update of 29/05/2025 caused.

gamemoderun %command%
Linux is now working. Last update looks like an anti-cheat rollback

Sometimes mouse glitches out of game and moves to 2nd monitor (before the 29th May update)
The Game runs without issuses except the AntiCheat problem ~20h ago. I played a Casual game and so far it works like usually. DX11 ONLY

Used to work, until recent update. Initialization error 1
LD_PRELOAD="" PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 gamemoderun
I believe something with the Anti-Cheat borked this. Which really sucks, it was a lot of fun..

Before the Update (May 29th) the worked without issues.
(none)
Sidenote: Last time it worked, it worked with DX11 instead of DX12

NeacInterface.dll Initialization error 1
gamemoderun %command%
Anti-Cheat broken after last update before game runned smooth

Update quebrou o jogo
Teve uma atualização no dia 29 de Maio de 2025. O anti-cheat do jogo não consegue iniciar, ele mostra o erro "NeacInterface.dll Initialization error 1". Em seguida, quando o jogo abre, a tela fica preta até o jogo crashar.
After today´s update(29/05/2025) Anti Cheat stopped working, game can´t be lanched.

Used to work just fine. Now i get the error: NeacInterface.dll Initialization error 1

Seems like a anti cheat issue

Game runs almost fine without any tweaks, on some launches the cursor escapes the window. After some time with the game open my GPU crashes and Plasma gets restarted.
running with gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 --force-grab-cursor --backend sdl -- %command%
as well as unsetting the backend make the game (seemingly) run without the cursor issues, but the mouse just feels weird
Mouse escapes window

gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 --force-grab-cursor --backend sdl -- %command%
For all those (like me) who can't get the game to run without crashing every one or two games, and who can't get the mouse to work properly while playing.
Use these launch options (Gamescope is required):
- gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 --force-grab-cursor --backend sdl -- %command%
I also had to select DX11 in the settings and remove FSR2 (don't ask me why, I don't know, but at least it works, and it's the only way I've found not to crash during my games).
Personally, all these modifications mean that the game no longer crashes. I hope this helps, have fun!

Game crashes a few seconds after launch
gamemoderun %command% -dx11
Tried with GE-Proton10-3 as well as Proton Experimental and the game wouldn't run.
Tried without any start up commands and the same crashes happened.
I managed to reach the main menu but it always crashed after a few (10-30) seconds.

gamemoderun mangohud %command%
Mouse was not smooth, impossible to play with it
Controller is the only good input for me

Opening the game with a normal proton version can result in weird graphical glitches due to the lack of some codecs. It doesn't affect the gaming experience nor the performance and the issue is completely fixable by using ProtonGE.
Fix for the glitches at the start of the game and in some Menus: Use ProtonGE

Runs great out of the box
All video ingame such as loading screens were bugged however it did not effect gameplay whatsoever and was purely "annoying"
No issues at all

I believe after an update, the game started crashing in the post-game screen.
After a recent update Proton Experimental and Proton Hotfix would launch the game with it's background being the no signal colors screen from tv's (SMPTE color bars) with only the buttons and it's SFX displaying when hovered on.

Playable with Nightly Proton Experimental. Minor features are broken or unreliable, but nothing really that inconvenient.
Certain controls get confused while NumLock is enabled. To my knowledge, this only affects the keybinds menu and for some reason the ability to use voice chat. Just turn NumLock off while playing.
Video recordings generated from demo files did not save. You'll need your own recording software to share match demos with friends.
Unreal Engine 5 games require Proton Experimental to run correctly, sometimes nightly builds. Playing with the default Proton 9 is a painful experience.
Crashed ones when I got "server disconnected"

Crashes on launch
Also tried with proton experimental

after switching from Directx12 to Directx11 the game runs fluent without any crashes.
I tried GEProton, Proton Experimental, Proton normal and experienced crashes. After switching from DirectX12 to DirectX11 in the settings, it runs without any crashes an lags.

dependendo da tela que entro ele trava e força a parada do jogo.
jogo roda muito bem. mais ainda tem que melhorar.

gamescope -w 1920 -h 1080 --force-grab-cursor --adaptive-sync --fullscreen -- %command% -dx11
Had to use gamescope for the mouse to get captured correctly.

Игра использует всю память Deck, 4 Гб идет на VRAM, остатки RAM - 12 Гб, игра использует на полную, и в пике нагрузки игра тормозит
Играл на минимальной графике, dx11, FRS ON, упрощенный интерфейс. И игре все равно недостаточно памяти.

Game starts up properly, freezes shortly after getting into a game
Was able to get into the tutorial, but with extreme graphical glitches. After 2-3 minutes of gameplay it froze and all I could do is kill the process. Tried again with the same results.

GE-Proton9-24 works great, is Stable and doesnt crash out of all the Proton versions i tested
LD_PRELOAD=" " %command% -dx12
The simplest way to decribe this game is basically Valorant and Rainbow six combined. The best version to play it without any crashes, bugs and all was for me to use GE-Proton9-24 maybe my launch options also helped but the newer GE ones or the from Steam given Proton versions were good until at some point it crashed. The only one which worked perfectly for me without any crashes and bugs was GE-Proton9-24 with these launchoptions.

Game runs flawlessly with proton as compared to windows (On DX11, all low except for ultra meshes + textures - 150 - 200 fps)
GE-Proton is necessary from my experience, as the game would not run with regular proton
