Intro movies are without sound (I would count that as a pro), rest works flawlessly (even the commonly reported cutscenes play audio for me)
Startup and intro videos are without sound (cutscenes unaffected)
Intro videos are without sound (in-game cutscenes unaffected).
Sometimes the sound of idling engine (of an NPC vehicle) gets corrupted (volume and bass boosted), it ends when the vehicle starts moving again. Seems to happen only if many vehicles are idling close to each other (waiting on a red light at a busy intersection).
Overall better experience than on Windows where I encountered plenty of graphical glitches. The audio issues are minor and can be easily ignored.
Runs on slightly lower settings and slightly worse than on windows, yet still absolutely playable.

When moving through the map quicky the game slows down noticabely, yet it remains fully responsive. The game also takes much longer to load.
I quickly adjusted to the slight graphical and perfomance downgrades and forgot they even happened. Might be able to resolve them with further tinkering.
Game has significant slowdowns roughly every minute for 2-3 seconds, both in singleplayer and multiplayer.
Ignoring the slowdowns which affect the whole game, not only multiplayer.
Unfortunately, the slowdowns are a deal breaker. In other genres one might be able to stomach them, yet not in a competitive fighting game.
Proton version works out of the box, native suffers from GPU lockups.
I was unable to get the native version to work with PRIME offload, it only ran when I switched the prime-select profile to Nvidia. Had the same issue on NixOS, yet not on Debian. Proton version works without a hitch.
Out of the box (Optimus laptops may require disabling iGPU Vulkan drivers)
Initially the game would refuse to run on a dGPU, even with appropriate launch options and/or supergfxctl configuration. Disabling Intel Vulkan drivers, following the instructions in the link bellow, solved the issue (reposting from user Obo to increase visibility).

Otherwise runs flawlessly, most users won't need to tinker at all.
