TDP limit 5w
very aliased by default. I forced the resolution to 2560x1600 in Steam launch options and now it looks fine and runs still perfectly (game is locked at 30fps anyway)
needs to select the controller with touchscreen within the game settings
Except for the occasional crashes, everything was ok. I could finish the game. It is quite poorly optimised though.
had to switch to desktop mode for the first launch because the EA app had some issue (not specifically linked with this game though)
very poorly optimised
very poorly optimized. frequently drops below 30fps
Had to switch to experimental because the mouse was not properly emulated (cursor stuck in the top or bottom of the screen)
flickering water and lava without proton GE. Everything is fine with Proton GE
locked 60fps (game is locked at 60fps anyway), TDP 10w
game crashed on every events taking place in Verrado Speedway (the trophy trucks track). switching on proton experimental solved the issue
Videos don't play (black screen), just press a button to skip them
High setting, locked 45fps. Every starts of races are within 30ish fps, then constant 45fps
high settings, locked 60fps, tdp 10w
servers are down
only mode still available
sadly the game is basically pointless now as only local multiplayer mode is playable now
added mouse control to access some menus
- don't forget to select the controller instead of keyboard in the in-game menu
the game is suposed to be steam cloud compatible but it doesn't seems to be the case in reality
be advised : no steam cloud
frequently drops below 30fps in high preset (the medium preset is really ugly and there is no specific sliders for specific parameters, which is very hurting the game on deck)
with more in depth graphical settings and steam cloud it would have been a great game for the deck
As of today (23 january 2025, day of the release), the game runs well on one condition though : the only way to achieve locked 60 fps is to run it on the lowest settings, with upscaling enabled (performance mode) and TSR. With upscaling but without TSR the game is very aliased. Do note that with TSR on, the game could be somewhat blurry, and with ghosting.
Hope the game will be optimized because it should run much better.
