Works flawless out of the box.
Apart from some lag that existed on windows too when first starting up a game, Proton works flawlessly.
Terrible visual artifacts on Native, Proton flashlight was glitchy but no significant bugs or any crashing
Flashlight outright glitched when viewing certain angles on Proton, and Native had extreme artifacts starting from the main menu
Extreme lag even on "Potato" mode
I played this on variying quality settings. Disabling or decreasing anti-aliasing and Anisotropic settings seems to somewhat mitigate the flashlight bug on Proton (at least for most viewing angles). Native had horrible black lines flashing across the screen.
This was tested on a proprietary NVIDIA driver. Your experience may differ with a nouveau driver on Ubuntu.
Perfect in Proton. Native is also there but playability seems to depend on the system in Native.
Perfect. No invasive anticheat.
On Ubuntu, Proton did not work and crashed without proprietary NVIDIA drivers. If you require nouveau or otherwise prefer non-proprietary drivers use Native as it can run with nouveau and others.
VAC doesn't allow any Proton use of the game. Native is a better option. Use a config like masterconfig if opengl is too laggy for you
VAC (Valve Anti Cheat)
Just use Native, and use a config if you are having issues with it instead of crying about it on here and not trying to fix it with google.
Issues are that big explosions even with Performance mods freeze games a sec which was not an issue I experienced with Windows.
Some large maps or Extreme Explosion might freeze or crash the game.
Community made Maps are the only ones that seem to freeze somewhat. Other then that, its all up to your Hardware! Story maps work too if that's the way you like to play!
Proton adds compatibility for community made mods. Native has not much mod support but is just as stable as Proton. This was on experimental, but they should work on the stable releases.
