Extreme stuttering and wildly inconsistent FPS
Utterly borked for me. I never had problems launching or loading into the game. However, it had unbearable stuttering the FPS would constantly fluctuate even while idling indoors.
Tried everything the other users here listed, and many things on my own, but never saw any improvements.
Some other users reported issues similar to mine and also never mentioned a solution, so it seems like it's not only me who can't figure out what's wrong.
Mouse isn't quite locked into the game
I made a previous report stating that the game had unplayable stutter and inconsistent fps. I was able to fix this by changing my kernel version. Game runs great with no further tweaks.
There is a small problem where your mouse isn't necessarily locked to the game. If you move your mouse fast enough, it may enter another monitor before returning to the center of the game screen. In this period, clicking will lose focus on the game and may cause it to minimize (depending on display settings).
PROTON_SET_GAME_DRIVE=1 %command%
Used the above launch option so that mod.io would work, otherwise it didn't seem to initialize. Didn't notice performance difference between DX11 and DX12. Currently using DX12 + Proton Experimental to have access to DLSS frame generation.
Experiencing about 100 real fps when in-game on high settings, so around 200 fps with frame gen.
gamemoderun %command%
Like other users have said, the mouse can leave the window when spectating. As a result spectating doesn't work well.
No major downsides compared to playing on windows. Enabled VSYNC in settings to limit my fps, because it's unlimited by default.
The spectator bug mentioned commonly is a little annoying, will need tweaks to fix described by other users.
