I've played this game successfully in the past, but the recent update seems to have broken something. I've reinstalled the game, removed all addons, and reverified game files to make sure it wasn't my local install. L4D2 is only working in proton for the time being. Proton works well, but you are unable to play online with VAC secured servers using proton. I hope an update is pushed to fix this as the game is still marked Verified.
Completely playable on deck. Do not turn on half rate shading to save power though, it will make the game very dark.
I play at 1024x768 to with the fill option and FSR to make the image crisper, but playing at the default 800p is playable at 30fps. Text is perfectly fine at native resolution but gets tough to read below 800p. With some graphics changes (turning most items to low) and a resolution of 1024x786, I am able to get 60fps most of the time. I lock at it at 45 to save power.
Proton experiemental is not needed, game should run just fine with the default config too. I just had it on because the game, at some point, would not load under the default proton selection. Now it seems fine.
