Game launches easily out of the box with proton hotfix. No bugs or performance issues from my testing.
Audio frequently cracks especially around louder noises like helicopters. This also causes near-crashes.
See audo notes
Reforger must currently be ran on forced Experimental in order to avoid heavy foliage artifacting.
Game seems to be unstable, and frame rate suffers. But it can be played.
FPS playing through Proton doesn't go above 30fps no matter my graphical settings
Occasional crashes during the launch
Miserable experience in the current state.
Game is currently unplayable on my system with my testing. Game would not launch on Proton Hotfix. 9.0-4 worked. Sounds stuttered unbearably on the main menu, and the menu froze frequently. Had to kill process to recover my computer on the first attempt, and the second attempt caused a crash of entire desktop environment, even after reducing graphics settings to lowest and capping frame rate to attempt to stabilize it.

Game will only succesfully launch about 20% of the time. Must relaunch until success.
Hosting and playing multiplayer servers has no barrier.
Certain assets do not load, such as tutorial displays.
Game launches and plays just fine on Proton 8.0-5. Game will not launch on 9.0-4, Hotfix, or Experimental at the time of posting. Missing out on the tutorial displays is a very minor issue, as the text explanations still appear.
As long as you do not try to skip the splash screens, the game runs fine. Resist the urge to button mash on startup.
Game is guaranteed to crash if attempting to skip splash screens
Gameplay experiences significant slowdowns, and crashing will occur if not careful during cinematics.
Game experiences significant slowdown with average enemy counts on screen
Game is guaranteed to crash if you attempt to skip/button press during intro splash screens, or cinematics.
Unless you are willing to put up with a relatively unpleasant experience, you will not enjoy this.
Smite 2 opens and runs as expected, however FPS suffers. On my computer, the game is still playable, even with the FPS drop.
Game runs about 30% worse compared to my Windows installation.
