EA App "installs" but as soon as you start it, EA sign-in shows a blank page before closing. I have tried other Proton versions to no avail.
The gold rating is outdated and needs to be removed, it is very misleading.
add the bleeding edge TKG build of proton experimental, may not be stable in other games, but currently works with EA App launcher as of writing
only once/if signed, in DO NOT INTERACT WITH EA APP WHILE LAUNCHING, the app may seem to crash but it went to you tray, just wait for steam to finish launching the game and don't touch that thing with a ten foot pole while in-game, I recommend going to the settings of the app and disabling EA's overlay in the app (restart to take effect I believe) which should give a slight framerate/stability boost.
less lag spikes than windows on the same machine, shockingly more enjoyable on linux than it ever was on windows.
as this is a bleeding edge build, I believe users can expect the game to function under normal Proton experimental in the future. build used is (TKG-proton-experimental.bleeding.edge.8.0.53474.20230822)
ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 gamemoderun %command%
If you choose to install and use VkBasalt reshaders, the game will suddenly look much sharper, toggling it on and off you can notice this wierd blur disappearing and lighting looking crisper with minimal performance overhead, you can even get reshade working if you are less lazy than me.

When launching on KDE Plasma, the taskbar overlaps the game, can be worked by going to ingame settings, changing dropdown from fullscreen to fullscreen windowed and back to fullscreen and THEN pressing apply changes, dont apply it when its set to full windowed or you will be stuck unable to click apply changes.
game runs great, I may have a skill Issue though.
Runs as good as or better than Windows
As responsive or more so than windows. If using X11/xOrg, disabling display compositing is highly recommended for the fastest response time.
use -novid launch command to skip intro cinematic
Default flashes a black screen before crashing, Use Proton experimental, recommend using Vulkan backend in game settings.
attempted to use multiple versions of Proton, borked
tested Proton 7, 8, experimental, and GE8-13, none succeed in launching the game
gamemoderun %command%
Can't believe the Dev silently pushed a Linux runtime not metioning it in any patches, But it runs Perfectly, another Linux W.
very minimal audio artifacts, barely noticable, if even, most users won't notice.
Steam defaults will fail to launch, manually set proton experimental
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="wsock32=n,b" LD_PRELOAD="$LD_PRELOAD ./libsuperblt_loader.so" %command%
I play payday 2 with mods, most other users won't need launch commands
OVERKILL recent started using Epic Online disService to host games, can have issues, most of which are patched, use -steamMM to use old matchmaking with others using it (may require up to date version of "The Fixes" mod)
The native Linux version is no longer supported by OVERKILL, they publicly support using Proton however. the native linux version will still run, but is outdated, Proton is highly recommended.
default launch fails to display the launcher properly, showing a black nad then white window
Immediate Unity Crashes upon loading the main menu, Borked by recent update
gamemoderun %command%
I have tried multiple versions, including custom options like GE, no success, custom launch options also proved useless when changed or removed, game used to function great on proton 7, now it doesnt work, Period.
Set renderer to Vulkan in game settings to eliminate stutters (present on Windows as well due to poor game optimization)
gamemoderun mangohud %command%
This game gets 60 FPS consistently on my hardware on medium ish settings, but the game itself is just very poorly optimized (you can even see windows streamers games freeze occasionally, somehow using native Vulkan [game settings] mitigates this issue)
