Installed through steam Failed to launch initially due to EA app Opened protontricks and then enable winecfg > staging > hide game version Then, opened Lutris and changed the executable to the EA app installer executable, found in /_Installer/Origin/redist/internal/EAappInstaller.exe After, changed the wine prefix dir in Lutris to the proton prefix steam uses found in /steamapps/compatdata/1222680/pfx. This should make the EA app install / notice where the game is. After having ran the install, attempt to start the game via Steam. If it does, congrats, if no, then attempt to install MS Visual C++ via protontricks, or install the EA app seperately in Lutris, log into your account there, then start via steam
Not the easiest game to install. Thanks EA. Glad I only paid 4 euros for the game
Non-asphalt terrain looks terrible
I recommend buying when it goes on sale for -95%, but not for any penny more. You also need to do some tinkering. Mind you that EA seems to be obstructing Linux all the time, so my fix might work now but maybe not later!
Runs well and more stable than my previous Win7 / Win10 experience
Water textures are not there. It did not bother me enough to try and fix it
Ubisoft Connect (DRM) caused my entire OS(Linux Mint 22) to require a full reboot once. It does not automatically close when exiting the game, and it was running in the background for a while because I didn't notice.
I initially did a first boot with proton experimental. This didn't work. After a full reinstall and doing a first start with proton 9.0-2 it worked immediately. I did not check other versions.
