If you can figure out the mic issue and are able to tolerate (or don't experience) the buffeting audio, it's a great experience.
EAC easily fixed with instructions in other reports. Microphone still does not work, even after using protontricks others had success with.
Occasionally audio gets terribly buffeted. Usually resolves itself with a minute, but comes back somewhat often.
Microphone is noop for me, even with protontricks listed.
Every so often, the game drops from 70fps to about 8fps after a map change. Remedy is to quit the game, re-join and fps is back to good.
WINENOPULSE=1 %command%
protontricks 393380 sound=alsa
At times, sound gets garbbled during loud parts but recovers within ~20 seconds.
Other comments cite fix for EAC and works well.
Mic input selection in-game does not work well. If you have a VR headset, you may need to unplug it. Squad was forcing the mic to be used from my Index. Unplugging it before playing solved all my mic issues.
First ran with Proton 6.3 but failed to load. Worked great after forcing Experimental. One crash that was easy to recover from. Failed to exit the game fully one time, leaving a small process running in the background inflating my "Hours in game". Otherwise, works great so far.
