install Bazzite , Garuda or Nobara and play! worst i had to do was change the proton version ..
It works GREAT! i can play on the few listed servers , (and mine if i can figure it out through GTX , as its been just a winBlows only server for like 8 years , BUT it will appear on the list soon! as for now , i can connect and play just fine on either Linux or winBLOWS through client.connect ) , i have had to change versions of Proton here and there to get the best performance , but its really nice to be back on LInux playing RUST! The EAC thing is a TOTAL pain in the A$$ tho , or atleast to get your server listed and secure . so if ANYONE OUT THERE wants to help get another server on the list please let me know ...
I have been using Linux in various flavors since like 2004 , and Todays Linux is really "spot on!" , i was able to download , install and play Rust on several "distros" without much effort. to get more FPS , enable some of the Nvidia stuff will take some tinkering , but we do that as gamers with winBLOWS as well so its no biggie. BUT.... WE NEED MORE SERVERS , more server admins need to see the Steam Deck and all the other hand helds are coming , and ppl will want a place to play until the EAC vs Linux issues are fixed ! I AM TRYING to get my server Compatible and secure for those that are already playing on linux and for those that WILL BE!
